If you want cheapest with good quality. Go with plant protein. OWN can be good. If in whey you want cheap go with unflavored concentrate. Amul, naturaltein, TWT. Amul would be cheapest due to IPL and raw material factor. These have some trade off like taste. Can use 0 kcal sweetner separately and make shakes etc.
THIS! there is definitely a huge difference in terms of taste and overall quality. There is some chemical aftertaste now. I remember their vanilla whey concentrate used to be so good, even flavour was so subtle, no bad aftertaste but now it just doesnt feel right. The new whey lineup has very artificial taste to it and the original whey conc is almost 2800. I have a few more scoops remaining and I am gonna try only whats needed. I started naturaltein because of their whole cologne list thing, but i guess now its being made entirely in India.
i think they discontinued vanilla from the Og series. It was so damn good man! It was after so long someone did vanilla right without making it taste artificial but now their vanilla from their new series has so much artificial taste to it.
I ordered chocolate biscoff and italian ice cream flavour and both of them tastes like shit :(

Wanted to know what flavour to buy next only prioritizing taste , want the best tasting(preferably from Myprotein/Muscletech etc non Indian brands) Till now i have tried - 1) Muscleblaze Hazenlut(6/10) 2)MyProtein Frosted Cereal Milk(7.5/10 but **too sweet**) 3)Atom Mango (2/10) 4)Naturaltein Vanilla(5/10 stevia aftertaste is unbearable) 5)Avvatar Malai Kulfi(8/10 tastes like Complan)
ykr their og vanilla and chocolate both tasted amazing and vanilla more so it tasted so natural, now idk something is off. ig they are just sending raw material in India now and rest is handeled here and we all know how it goes in facilities here. also can we still buy the of ones? Also yes i am also thinking of trying only whats needed next
They should either setup their own unit in India or send complete product from germany like they used to do.
I changed brands to test all of them so currently in using naturaltein unflavoured and osoaa double chocolate flavour
