Been consuming the cocoa one for the past 6 months now. Love it! Haven't tried the coffee one yet so can't compare.
Has anyone noticed a huge change in the OWYN Chocolate Pro Elite Protein Powder? The tubs I got delivered in early April were way different. They tasted very strange, way worse and way less chocolatey, it was noticeable even from the color as it was towards orange rather than the normal dull brown. The customer service rep I talked to seemed to think it was just a change in the forumla. Can someone who has gotten it in mid April or later confirm that there actually was a change? I'm praying I just got a bad batch or something cuz its my favorite protein powder by far.
I got one in April and it seems the same to me.
Owyn is pretty good and cost effective at Costco. The pro elite has 33 grams of protein. Tvp (not a shake, more like a plant based crumble) is also amazing, for every quarter cup it's 80 calories to 12 grams of protein.

holy shit I had no idea about the lead! I have their chocolate 30g protein powder every morning
Glad to hear it! Well, I gotta say I've tried a couple vegan protein powders and OWYN is by far my favorite!
Owyn has regularly been reported to have high levels of leas and cadmium. Used it for a week before reading this
