My bruddas, cant go wrong with extreme milk chocolate. But i drink it with milk. I recently switched over from myprotein. So far i have tried, Myprotein milk tea - 3.5/5 Drinkable, finished 2.5kg worth. But had a weird aftertaste. Drank with water Salted caramel - 1.5/5 The artificial taste and the aftertaste killed me. I wasted 2.5kg worth of protein. Drank with water Optimum Nutrition Double choco - 3/5 Drinkable but weird after taste. Drank with water Extreme milk choco - 5/5 My new love.

I spent a lot of money trying different brands of powders only to give them away. I don't understand how people don't vomit in the middle of their workouts, due to the stuff being so sweet. I finally found one that's not overly sweet and doesn't have that slimy texture. "MyProtein" should be paying me royalties as much as I promote them. But their clears are some of the best that I've had and their "TheWhey" is really good and not sickening sweet.

I honestly dont taste the whey. The flavor I gravitate to on "TheWhey " is vanilla ice-cream. As far as the clears go, I like Strawberry, Orange Dream, and lemonade. The clears do have a slight aftertaste, but it's due to the sweetener, not the whey. It's not overpowering at all, but it is there. What I do with the clears is mix them with milk and add berries to them. With the orange I only add milk, no berries. It tastes like an orange julious if you've ever had one.

The only brand I've tried that matches your criteria is MyProtein brand. None of the flavors are sickly sweet like other brands, but taste varies person by person. What I like, you may hate.

I use "MyProtein" exclusively in my creamy. It's the only brand I can stomach. Everything else is too sweet.

I buy protein powder in bulk (normally myprotein) and put it in shakes / yogurt ice cream.

Where are you located? If you go directly to source (e.g. Kirkland) you can buy in bulk during sales for very reasonable prices. I take a long of protein powder and started tracking brands I liked in a spreadsheet. Noticed the price went up a lot last couple of years as protein became trendy. I built my spreadsheet into this tool to budget both the cost and my macros: [https://www.proteinmath.app/](https://www.proteinmath.app/) Taste is obviously personal but I do enjoy MyProtein quite a bit. Hope you find it useful.

Agreed. I've mixed it into stews, currys, all sorts of stuff that it probably doesn't belong in

Myprotein does flavourless. Its fine, if that's what you want.
