Thanks for the tip! I called today too.  I tried one flavor in the past and hated it, but everyone raves about this brand so I figure I need to give it another shot.

It's definitely different than other protein powders out there. From my observations, the powder is a lot finer, and in really cold water you will have some clumps. As others have posted, mix it with room-temperature water (or warmer) to avoid the clumps.

I also find it to be really STRONG. Instead of mixing with 8oz, I am mixing with 16oz and it's still sweet, but not unbearably so.

My surgeon says this brand is OK for my clear liquids phase (whereas my usual Gold Standard protein powder would not be OK). Not sure why, but these handy packets will be nice for the 6-hour car ride home after I am released from the hospital!

Thanks for all of the info. I'm still waiting for them to get delivered. Please post what you favorite flavor ends up being. Just curious!
