Seconding this. I get the chocolate flavour and it's pretty good, especially for the price.
Macro Mike, hands down. The peanut flavours I think don't have probiotics. It's expensive and I hate the gimmicky marketing, but it's undeniably the best tasting brand. Nuzest is just okay. I found myself adding extra ingredients (peanut butter or fruit) to make it taste better. Bulk Nutrients Earth protein I hated, threw out half the sample pack. Their soy isolate is very good for baking though - I like to make baked oats with it.
I use the hemp gold protein powder in smoothies, baking and oats, has a fairly mild nutty flavour and is very smooth but maybe not for everyone, I think they have a few flavoured ones but haven't tried them. Also I quite like the B-raw protein powder, I loved banana lollies and the banana one is very nostalgic for me but think it might not be for everyone. My partner and I got samples of the macro mike but actually have found them really unpleasant, the peanut was better than the almond for me. Earth protein from bulk nutrients wasn't my favourite but it is very well reviewed, I would recommend getting samples before buying a big bag, planning to try their soy protein next.
I've come to learn some pea proteins can be a bit aggressive on my gut. I noticed it was the consistent ingredient in some things and why the Blue Ribbon vegan icecream gave me issues (it is SO good though). I haven't had problems with Macro Mike's gaytime protein powder, though it is expensive. Bulk Nutrients earth protein was also fine. Not as creamy, but way cheaper. You can get a fairly cheap sample pack (vanilla chai was a lovely surprise! Recommended!). They actually have a label "easy on gut" or something which I'd believe. I think it's a mix of multiple sources of protein, including pea. Of the two, Bulk Nutrients is my preference due to the price and variety.
Yes I agree
Bulk nutrients earth protein, vanilla is my go too. Super fast postage from tassy.i normally buy a few at a time to bring the price down.
