Has anyone tried the organic Premier Protein? How does it compare taste wise to the original ones? I want to eliminate artificial sweeteners in my diet and this seems like a good solution but I haven't heard any feedback on it.

It is being delivered next week. I got 7$ off too at Costco.ca and free shipping.

My only concern is that it has 5g more carbs than the original and at TWH they recommend not having a protein shake with more than 5g of carbs. This one is 10g.

That said I prefer to avoid the sweeteners so I'm torn. Going to email the dietitian and see what she thinks.

Let me know what you think of them!!

It has fibre .. and I can heat it so hot chocolate ... it may come in handy as a treat. 7 net carbs for 11 oz.. so I figure .. 8 oz is like 5... andv18 grams protein... not bad.

So interesting! I'm actually allergic to the inulin fibre in Benefiber but it's from the chickory root and this is derived from the agave plant so I'm expecting it would be fine fir me. Love the Hot Chocolate idea!!! Nice way to end the day. Netflix and Organic Premier Protein haha

I found a protein that disolves well in milk and I can heat but not really hot. In winter .. a really hot chocolate and a good murder mystery is a luxury ;)

We designed this packaging at work, but I haven't tasted it yet. Cool that it is on shelves now. Let us know how it is!

Looks like it is the same price as the regular Premier Protein, but with only 12 in a case instead of 18. Let us know how it tastes.

Yes, I saw that. Was more concerned if it was nasty or tasted pretty much the same as the original one. I'm hoping it's the same but less sweet. I mix them with homemade decaf cold brew coffee because I'm not crazy about the taste so anything similar would be fine but sometimes Stevia can have a bad aftertaste so I was hoping someone had tried it. I'm ok being the guineapig though. :)

No word back yet from TWH on if the 10g of carbs would be ok vs the 5g in the original.

im trying to decide before the Costco sale is over. I got 2 cases of vanilla already but thought I might try one of each of the organic to switch it up and move away from the artificial sweeteners.

I think I may mix it with unflavoured half and half .. my sis drinks Premier and she said that it mixes up really well in the blender and it becomes frothy so maybe this will taste really good- let's hope!
