Gross

This protein powder describes itself as smooth and not gritty....not true. It's extremely gritty to the point of coating your tongue and throat, and the chocolate flavor is awful.

Not worth the overly sweet taste and grit!

I've tried to like this and have tried to make it multiple ways-most recently in my oatmeal. It is too sweet, too fake tasting and too gritty no matter what I do to try to smooth the texture out.

Gritty textire

The chocolate flavor has a much better texture or mixing capability. This one, vanilla, stays rather gritty after mixing either in just liquid or in a smoothie. Definitely will be going back to the chocolate flavor.

Price increase?!

Why the sudden price increase from $25 --> $35?! I have literally kept my Sams membership only to get this product at a good price. Will probably not renew my membership if this price stays ridiculously high.

Lactose intolerant approved

The best vanilla protein powder. It’s hard to find a good vanilla flavor and this is phenomenal. Low sugar and low carbs this is it. I’m lactose intolerant so I get the plant based protein and it’s so easy on my stomach it’s perfect

Cardboard Fibers

No where near as good at Dymatize. Wish Sam’s still stocked it. I can swallow this but this has a very present texture, it’s what I imagine dissolved cardboard fibers would be like in a drink. Won’t be buying again.

Only problem is stevia aftertaste

This is only awful to me because of the stevia, leaves an awful aftertaste that won't go away for several hours. All of the other ingredients look wonderful.

It was honestly not very good. it doesn't taste like vanilla and tastes almost stale with a fresh can. the flavor overpowers anything you put it into and when the flavor is one step away from being unbearable, I would not recommend this. I don't know how it compares to other plant based protein, but there's gotta be a better option.

not for me

I wanted to like this! But the smooth description is not accurate on this product. The taste was ok especially if adding flavored syrup but the texture completely threw me off. someone described it as cardboard, that is accurate and I would even say like drinking sandy water. I even tried mixing it in a blender and I just couldn't get past the texture. It's just not for me.

Orgain powder

Can't drink milk or whey, don't care for soy. I mix it in a blender with Greek yogurt, fruit, and ice and maybe some water. It's very very good and a great alternative to the other products on the market. Chocolate and strawberry are especially good. I also mix it in a bowl with my yogurt, half strength again with fruit And it's a tasty breakfast.
