    Best tasting and best nutrition wise protein powder?

    Looking for a new protein powder I have been using optimum nutritions vanilla for a while and it's time to try something new.

    best protein powder hands down I ever had is Species Nutrition whey isolate (various flavors).. super smooth and mixes better then anything else I've ever tried. its damn pricy though. Blackstone labs 'Isolation' isn't bad and is quite a bit more affordable

    Depends on what you mean by "best nutrition". For macros, most are pretty close per serving +\- some carbs or protein.

    Flavours are pretty subjective. Once upon a time when I used powders I had cookies and cream Myofusion and cookies and cream ON. Didn't taste remotely the same.

    Outside of macros, they will have some type of filler or synthetic ingredients. Most nutritious would be making your own from whole food.

    The Romane Lanceford philosophy is exactly this. Tuna and rice in a blender with water. Down the hatch. I'm sure egg whites + cocoa powder + honey + fruit would taste better

    just to clarify , whey protein is also 'real' food coming from an animal source (its as much or more real food then oats)

    Animal makes a product that is designed with an entire blend of "real food" ,, from beef protein, pea protein, yams, etc.. its a real food based mass gainer

    I've tried it as the profile looks pretty good , but unfortunately the taste is nothing like a quality whey

    I'd stop eating before I did that.

    I'm still hooked on ON whey. But damn it's pricey. I get it from Costco on-line. Right now it's $58 for about a 5.6 lb bag. I've seen it where they have sales down to $35 per bag, but it's rare. Anyone know a cheaper site for that product?
