Hey everyone!

I am having some trouble finding some protein shake that I like.  I have this stuff that is so gross and slimy feeling (Hexapro) when I drink it I cannot stand it.  Any suggestions regarding a good vanilla tasting shake.  I have to have vanilla because I purchased some additional vitamin/mineral add on to put in it.  PLEASE HELP!  I can not spend the money on a new bottle because it is super expensive.  The stuff I do like it two times over the fat content that we are allowed.

Suggestions welcome!

I personally can't stand vanilla flavor but the whey isolates on canadianprotein.com taste really good and mix well, I also use the GNC whey iso burst powder. Both brands have good stats and reasonable prices. I would look at some of the other flavors on Canadianprotein.com and see if a vanilla vitamin powder might enhance it, for instance I love mixing chocolate flavored stuff with mint chip. Also if the vanilla flavored vitamin is the powder stuff im thinking it is pay close attention to its nutritional information (some don't post any), they can carry a lot of carbs and calories.

Bulk Barn sells it. You can but just a little and try it.

If you have a Popeye's near you, they have a tasting section.  So they will mix them up for you to try in store.

I use Promasil by Rivalus. It's available at GNC and has 24g of protein in a 6oz glass. I mix mine with skim milk for extra protein and calcium. I have tried the chocolate, vanilla and strawberry and like them all. 

Hope you find one you like!
