Get Rich Quick!
I was just sitting here at my desk, frustrated with all the protein powders, drinks, bars, that I've purchased since my WLS and thinking "WOW someone needs to start marketing a "NOT SO SWEET" brand of quality Whey Isolate foods!"
Just think, If we all threw in a couple hundred dollars (wait a sec while I go sell some plasma) we could do this ourselves! I mean clearly there are plenty of sources of plain whey isolate, we just need to create the rest using a FRACTION of the sweetener!
Here's my fantasy line up:
- Coffee with Cream (flavored with REAL coffee, no sweetener used)
- Tea with cream (I'm thinking the "cream" will be required to cover the whey flavor)
- Dark Chocolate (like all the chocolate protein powders but with a sweetness level comparable to 60% cocoa bars!)
- Vanilla with low sweet index that would be easy to sub for almond milk etc...
- Milk - yep... just mix this powder (or pour it from a carton) and you can use it just like 2% milk...
- Berry, lemon, lime, orange, fruit powders that have about 1/3 the sweetness
- Truffle sized dark chocolate nuggets with 10g protein
What would your fantasy protein concoctions be like?

I find optimum nutrition's double rich chocolate to be a darker chocolate than most. And you could add cocoa powder to make it darker.
