Protein Supplement Question

OK, need some advise on the protein supplement. I picked up a powdered at GNC and it is turning everything this disgusting shade of green.  It doesn’t really have much taste but the color is really turning me off.  Do you have one that you recommend (and is it clear??)

Wow Nancy, green!!!  That is a new one, I would check with GNC, I believe they have a return policy.  If you can tolerate the taste, consider putting the shake into an opaque sipper cup to not look at the color.  A covered coffee cup would do the trick. 

I use bodyfortress, unjury and recently bought some AES.  They are all normal colors.  For different flavors, consider adding a teaspoon of sugar free jello powder, sugar free pudding powder, a bit of crystal light powder or sugar free syrups. 

Come share what you discover with GNC.  What flavor is the protein supposed to be?

Yeahhhhh the green would definately make me want to avoid it too... I use unjury (unjury.com) they offer unflavored, vanilla, choc, strawberry sorbet (don't like this one, but usually love strawberry flavored ones) and a chicken soup flavor. It is a high quality and affordable choice. I also use optisource from nestle nutrition. It is a little pricey, but tastes great and each 8 oz carton has 2 protein servings. I use 4 oz and add 4 oz of milk to it.

Hope you can find a brand you can enjoy.
