Purely InspiredPlant-Based Protein Powder for Men & Women, Creamy French Vanilla (16 Servings) - Vegan & Organic - 20g of Pea Protein Powder for Smoothies & Shakes - Dairy-Free, & Gluten-FreeUSDA Organic

Out of all the various plant protein powder mixes I've tried, this one is my favorite. Others might be slightly less expensive per pound, but two main reasons keep me coming back to this product.The first is taste. It doesn't jump up and down on my taste buds and scream "awesome flavor," but it not bad at all. I find the vanilla to be more enjoyable than the chocolate, but I mix them up for variety's sake. What stands out to me is how much smoother this stuff is than the comparable product at Costco. Both are organic, but wow - that Costco stuff tastes quite chalky compared to this. This product blends up pretty smooth. If I'm in the mood for something sweet, I add a bit of stevia powder to the mix.The second reason I keep using this product is the carb and fiber count. Not only does this product have 7 grams of fiber per serving, it has only 9 total carbs. Using the method of subtracting fiber from total carbs, that means I'm consuming only two "net" carbs per serving, which is quite beneficial for when when I'm eating a keto diet. Comparable products have anywhere from 5 to 17 carbs per serving, depending on the brand. If I put on a few pounds, I can lose them pretty quickly eating high fat / low carb, with 20 or fewer carbs per day.The high fiber content also helps keep my cholesterol in check. I strive for a minimum of 30g fiber per day, because it absorbs the bile in the small intestines which keeps the bile from being reabsorbed by the body and turned into cholesterol. By increasing my fiber intake and cutting out all processed food, I was able to significantly lower my cholesterol from 235 to 178 in just three months. By maintaining my fiber intake, my cholesterol has stayed at or near that lower number for two years running. I obviously can't promise everyone that result -- and so that the FDA doesn't harass me, I should say that this statement has not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration, and that this product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. :-)I first found this product at Wally World, and at the time of this writing, the retail price for a one-time purchase on Amazon is the same as Walmart. But for the past few months I've had this on "subscribe & save," which brings the price down 15%.Only one time did I have a problem with the delivery - someone at Amazon packed it alone in a large box with no air pillows, and all the jostling in transit caused the lid to come partially off. I opened the box to find a lot of powder! A simple email to Amazon solved the problem - they paid for me to ship the opened container back and they sent me a new one lickety split. Also, every once in a while, the tops on these containers don't snug up all the way when you tighten them. Twice in the past year I've had tops that "jump" the threads. It's not a big deal ... it just means you shouldn't carry those particular containers by the lid when putting them back in the pantry! That said, most of them snug up just fine.I believe this product to be a great source of organic plant-based protein. As for making drinks, I use this product daily as part of a power-packed smoothie. By the way, to enhance the nutrients in that smoothie, I almost always add a scoop of Organic Greens plus a scoop of JUCE powder that I get from Costco (can't find it on Amazon - if you find it, let me know).

I struggle with a LOT of the protein shakes. They make me feel bloated and they taste like cardboard.This one is not like any of those others. I love it. It tastes great and doesn't make me feel like I'm developing digestive issues. It can mix with water, milk, almond milk, etc as a straight shake or as part of a fruit/vegetable blend.

Blends good into water and milk. The only downside I can find; is that the vanilla flavor is super strong. Overall pretty good if you a vanilla lover. Good value for the price.

For the majority of my life I had committed to eating cleaner. Quit eating mainstream animal products in my early teens. In my early 30s now. Went through many different protein powders. I found this other one that I used for many years had a lot of vitamins but honestly didn't taste that good. Took a break for like a year and really noticed my energy went down and started having headaches. Guessing from lack of nutrients. Ended up giving this a try got the chocolate very pleased with the taste. I mixed it with an almond milk coconut milk sugar-free brand of milk. I personally don't think it's too sweet and definitely not chalky. Has many different nutrients in it. I ended up using two scoops of the powder and stayed full for about 3 hours. Will be buying again. definitely recommend.

Two very different products.First time I ordered, the product was in a clear container that said "New Look! Even Better Flavor!". Could easily be stirred into water, plant milks, or coffee. Absolutely DIVINE flavor! Tasted like ice cream. By far the BEST protein product I have ever had. Could easily drink it everyday or even a couple times a day.Next time I ordered, it came in a white container (presumably the old formula). Didn't blend as well--not the biggest deal. However, it tasted very off and artificial along with lacking any creamy texture. Struggled to get through the container and ended up giving some of it away.I have ordered the product several times and you never know which one you're going to get. If you get the clear container, you're in for a treat! If you get the white container, keep your expectations low. It's a gamble which one you're going to get. I'd like for this to be my protein supplement, but there's no way of knowing if it will be the one I LOVE or the one I can tolerate.

I've used every vegan protien powder on the market over the years, searching for good ones that don't have monk fruit ( gastrointestinal nightmare ) or chickory root ( more gastrointestinal stress ) along with other not needed ingredients and here is a good basic one that goes down well and tastes great. That said, I use 3 different brands in my shake to create a synergistic flavor even guests have come to love. Add this to your vegan lineup.
