Protein Powder Recommendations
I bought the variety pack, and the feuity ones were so much better than the chocolate ones. Maybe if you mixed them with somw kind of milk... almond milk, cashew milk. I used water. I also mixed them in with plain greek yogurt, mixed reviews there. Fuzzy Navel was by FAR the best. I have gone theough three or four 2-pound jars.

I have been enjoying the cold almond coconut milk, very good so I bet the chocolate would be good with that. I'm looking forward to the fruity flavours though. Maybe I'll try fuzzy navel with Greek yogurt!

For an inexpensive option, I like Walmart's Body Fortress protein powder. I use it to make smoothies.

Oh good to know! Is it Vanilla? I will need one to add to soups, yogurts etc when on liquids.

I know it comes in vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry. There may be other flavors, too.

If you like coffee, look at the Click products. They are good for variety - I love the mocha and caramel latte flavors.

Syntrax anything but especially Fuzzy Navel. They sell a variety sample pack on Amazon, not sure if they sell in stores and I am on the west coast so no help for Michigan.

Thanks! I stopped in at a Vitamin Shoppe and grabbed some of the "to go" packs of the fuzzy navel, strawberry-kiwi and carribean cooler as that is what they had. The were 1.99 each so nice to have them to try. If I like them I'm definitely going to order the sample pack to try more flavours.
