Diesel Protein Powder
Hello does anyone use Diesel protein powder? I got some yesterday in the PATH in downtown Toronto at a place called A1Nutrition. It was $46.99 for the smaller tub and $99.99 for the large one. I got the small tub. The flavour I got was Chocolate Peanut Butter. They also had Banana, plain Chocolate and Strawberry. I got a sample of the Strawberry and it was good too. You mix one scoop in 125 mL which is good if you don't like drinking a whole 250 mL like other protein shakes I have tried. It has 26 grams of protein in it so I am going to aim for 2 shakes a day since I have been bad with getting in enough protein. The other stats are good too and it has stevia in it as the sweetener (no aspartame or splenda at all).
I really like the flavor I got but when I run out I think I will try the strawberry next. I am so curious about the banana but they didn't have any samples of it so I will wait until I can try it first.
I like the Salted Caramel flavour.

I swim most mornings. I find that having a protein shake or protein coffee sits better in my pouch before exercise. I usually add decaf instant coffee to the salted caramel to have a salted caramel macchiato.

I'm a fan of Diesel for what it doesn't have in it. It's my go-to. I like the vanilla, salted caramel and their unflavoured really comes in handy. I mix it in yogurt, cottage cheese, dips (hummus etc) and of course smoothies :)
