Changed ingredients, not happy!

I have been happily buying this product for over a year but noticed immediately when I made my first shake from the new container that it tasted different, like coconut. They have added ingredients and ruined the chocolate flavor. If I wanted coconut flavor, I'd buy it, please bring back the original chocolate formulation.

Easy on the Stomach

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Flavor/Taste: I tried the Vanilla. I think all Proteins should be based on the most basic three flavors: Vanilla, Chocolate, and Strawberry. This is your baseline, and I believe almost all protein powders know exactly how to compare products when it comes to these 3 main flavors, especially vanilla. Now, with vanilla, you either have the ice creamy flavor, the fake vanilla flavor, or the natural vanilla. This one to me leaned toward the actual flavor of vanilla extract that you remember cooking with as a kid. To be fair, I would have preferred the creamy ice cream flavor to this one but with the organic label it would make sense that it would taste more of natural vanilla bean. No terrible aftertaste. Mixability: Now this is where I did have issues using blender bottles. I tried multiple types of blender bottles, some with the mixer ball, some with the metal spring ball, one with the screen on the lid etc. I did not like how this protein mixed. It took a whole lot of shaking and stirring to get it fully mixed with water/milk/almond milk. I could see this being annoying as with the normal amount of shaking, it left clumps on the sidewall and the "drink" was frothy/bubbly. Now for me this wasn't a huge issue as I don't drink protein in a mixer, but I wanted to try it to see how it did. I used this product to make green tea protein shakes with frozen fruit in an actual blender. In there it mixed smooth and was a great calorie/protein boost to my morning smoothie/shakes. Results: So, I struggle with protein powders. I admittedly have a weak stomach for protein powders. I will get bubble guts relatively fast, and I have to shy away from the majority of products. This one, I was good with. I used two scoops for 36 ounces of lactose free milk, frozen yogurt, fresh fruit/vegetables and matcha green tea powder. Turned out absolutely killer and I recommend it to any with sensitive stomach to at least try. I struggle with finding proteins that don't wreck me and I did okay with this one.

"Improved Flavor" Disaster

I've been using this protein powder for well over 2 years now, and it was my absolute favorite, but the recent "improved flavor" is a mistake; I don't know how to describe the horrid aftertaste it leaves other than a mix of old canned coconut and bile. On top of that, the new clear bottle is way harder to open. It still blends well and is dairy/soy free...but the old version had those properties along with tasting like a delicious vanilla smoothie. What's went wrong???

Cardboard flavored, NOT vanilla

I bought this brand because it was slightly less expensive than a brand I've liked and bought in the past. I put the recommended amount in my smoothie that first morning and I was sorely disappointed. I took about 3 drinks and couldn't finish it. (I do use almond or coconut milk in my smoothies typically, and that's what I used this time.) The texture was gritty and I can only describe the taste as cardboard flavored. I can't bring myself to try it again.

Good tasting organic pea protein.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Used this protein powder whenever I needed extra protein in my diet if I couldn't get it from food. Love that it's organic as the main ingredient is Pea protein.Love that they use coconut creamer (coconut oil). Would have liked to see a different sweetener besides cane sugar but it seems to be minimal. It is a bit grainy but not bad. I also mix in a half a frozen banana and sometimes powdered peanut butter.

Why is the probiotic content not listed anywhere?

I bought this and it taste fine. My major issue is this has probiotics which I find good but it doesn't disclose the amount of probiotics in this product. Which is how I ended up here looking for more information and is just missing in general. I take other products with probiotics in them even from this manufacturer and the content is listed. I just don't want to over do it with the probiotics so that information being available on the package would be greatly appreciated. Probably won't buy this brand again because of this issue.

Awesome but please fix.

We absolutely love this product. The new product is great but it is now being cleared out at the store because you cannot get the lid off because of the seal.
