You can’t mix it with one or two ingredients and not expect it to taste like protein powder. The key is to make a smoothie with other overpowering ingredients that will mask the taste and/or chalkiness. Myprotein Impact Whey unflavored is basically undetectable in my smoothies. I mix it with milk, Greek yogurt, half a banana, and peanut butter.
Myprotein Impact Whey unflavored. And has an A score on Labdoor
Myprotein white chocolate, sometimes have it as a shake, but add it to overnight oats to give extra protein and a sweet taste.
Myprotein handsdown, just buy during cyber Monday for best pricing which I've observed over the years. IIRC can buy approx 12.5kg of normal impact whey before hitting the $400 gst threshold, then store it and use it across 1-2 years. Flavors that I've tried in bulk are matcha latte (recent reformulations made it blander), strawberry cream (GOAT). Also strongly recommend salted caramel. Can't remember which vanilla flavor I tried but q decent.

Sweet - strawberry cream Vanilla-like - salted caramel These 2. Matcha latte I suspect the flavor changed lol so I stopped buying after going through a few 5kg bags Now I buy muscletech instead since mp price difference not that much

I ran through about 20kg of myprotein impact whey , they do clump up occasionally but nothing too severe. Though now the pricing q bad so probably considering buying ON again

Anyway 20-24p per scoop is normal across all brands assuming relatively similiar scoop sizes. If not enough just use more scoops. For whey protein MP is pretty much as legit as it gets with cost savings from it's economies of scale. Not sponsored by MP, just been through a lot of MP whey protein 5kg bags.
Myprotien vanilla is nice
In my experience, all the chocolate-based ones from Myprotein are better and more portable. Chocolate brownie, plain chocolate, chocolate peanut butter, etc. The more 'plain' ones, like Hokkaido milk, banana, and vanilla, are alright, but I'm not particularly crazy about the flavours. Meh flavours are unfortunately matcha (which I had high hopes for). However, I find that all the 'sweet' ones tend to taste good at first but become very cumbersome to drink especially if you drink often and gym often. Like, I get so turned off by the sweetness of things like golden syrup and cheesecake. However, as other redditors mentioned, one good hack is to use milk instead of just water. It really changes some of them up in a good way, but unfortunately, that also means added calories.

The myprotein impact whey unflavored, tastes like watered down milk. It mixes well and the flavor is pleasant.
