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.
For unflavored, I like MyProtein. They have both WPC (impact) and WPI (impact isolate), and both are clean flavors. I buy them all the time to cut flavored powders, since I find most of them too strong and sweet for my liking.
The only annoying thing with MyProtein is having to wait for a sale. Their standard prices are way overpriced so you have to wait for good sales and discount codes. Very annoying.
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.
The cheapest I know is myprotein if you're willing to stomach a higher upfront cost and risk having a huge 5kg 200 servings bag of a flavor you don't like. And now they already raised their minimum amount for free delivery to be $130 instead of $100 iirc.
Usually their >80% discount days are decent and even better if you can get upsized shopback cashback on sales day like 8.8 etc.
If you decide to go with myprotein the flavors I can recommend and went through >10kg of them YTD is strawberry cream, green tea matcha, also salted caramel is good but I discovered it only recently. Vanilla is decent.
There's no good local alternative that can win myprotein in terms of economies of scale.
I've stopped eating protein powder for months since I'm too lazy to wash my shaker every workout. I rather just stuff myself with more meat, tastes even better when CDC/sg60 vouchers are used.
For chicken breasts if you dm preparing yourself, the 1kg $8? Sadia individually frozen breasts are great. If you are on a further budget, there's 2kg breasts, but I find them a hassle as you're forced to defrost an entire pack. If you're lazy, new multi precooked processed chicken breasts though pricey at $15/kg, are the fastest option only needing a microwave.
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.
