   I am a big fan of NOW products. They always rate high on Labdoor, plus they have been around for awhile; which is something to consider with every supplement purchase. You can even look at their manufacturing process on their website. If you are use to plant based proteins this one is not any different texture/flavor wise. However, the protein used in here is different (better) than most and again the product comes from a top shelf company. Very easy on the stomach and makes great smoothies.

   This is awful. I don’t taste vanilla. I taste chalk. I mixed it with unsweetened almond milk. I think this will need some fruit or something because it’s awful.

   im sure it does what its supposed to do with building muscle (though its too early to tell) but the taste is overwhelming. it has that cheap vanilla protein taste. I think a chocolate flavor of this protein would be great to mask the strong plant taste. other than that it is a great product at a great value. thank you for making a vegan protein so affordable.

   It’s too sweet!!!!! I’m not sure what is the matter with people these days. How could anyone not think this is too sweet. I couldn’t even imagine adding fruit. Very disappointing, I should have known better.

   This is my new favorite vegan protein powder. I was using sunwarrior for a while but this is nearly half the price, has a great amino acid balance and like the sunwarrior is gluten and soy-free. Sunwarrior’s one selling point is that all their products are supposedly raw, but I feel like all protein powders are so incredibly processed and isolated anyway, it doesn’t really matter to me. Texture in this product is very smooth (much better than sunwarrior or vega) and the vanilla taste, while not exactly top notch, is unoffensive and blends well with my green/fruity smoothies. The sweeteners used in this product are xylitol and stevia. If you have any ibs or loose stool issues, you might not like things with sugar alcohols in them but I personally have no issues with xylitol so I’m very happy with it. I have tried a lot of vegan protein powders recently and this is by far my favorite. My only complaint if it really could be called a complaint is that they don’t sell larger containers of this. I prefer to buy protein powder in 4-5 pound containers but no issues other than that.

   This protein is great value for the money. It tastes good. Goes down pretty easy. Mixes in a standard shaker bottle really easily. It is vegitabe based so you don’t have to worry as much about food born allergens and is very light on your stomach. I have used it in the past it works as good as the leading protein BSN syntha 6, but is much healthier. I have heard from others that it tastes “grainy”. I don’t see it as long as you recommended amount of water. Dealing with this seller was fantastic. Shipped the item fast. Had prompt communication when I emailed. Made it STUPID easy to order. BOTTOM LINE…
   ….yes I will be ordering again and would recommend this protein who wants a clean, healthy and frankly the best protein.

   I love the mix of different proteins, and if it has to be sweetened, xylitol and stevia are both great choices. I could do without the xanthan gum, but I imagine if it didn’t have it these reviews would be full of complaints about the shakes separating, and it’s a lot better than carrageenan and all the other garbage thickeners lacing our food now.

   This is a great value for what it is.

   It took some getting used to and some modification but now I love it. I mix it in a quart jar with organic almond milk. I found Simple Nature to be the best taste-wise and cost-wise. Especially if you can find it at Aldi’s. First I heat it up in the jar in the using a pan with a little hot water. Not too warm or it will kill the probiotics. I get a scoop and actually put a little less than they say. Then I put about 1/3 in and swirl it around a little (Keeps it from caking on the top) Then I shake it well. Then I follow that procedure two more time and last of all I add 1 Tablespoon of Coconut oil and shake. It is then smooth and good tasting. However it did take about a 2 lb. bottle for me to get used to it. It wasn’t bad but not as smooth. I had to quit using whey because it didn’t agree with me (the dairy). Now I look forward to it as much as I did my whey. I’ve only tried the vanilla. I think if you will make yourself use it, by the end of the bottle (if not before) you will really like it.
