Review on High-Quality Milk Protein Blend // 80% Casein 20% Whey // Gluten-Free, Soy-Free, Non-GMO, Made in USA, Keto Friendly, Low Carb, Rich in Natural BCAAs (1000g / 2.2lbs, Unflavored) by Mary Beauchene

I usually drink a casein shake in the morning but it's so thickly blended I wanted to see if the whey/casein blend would make a difference. I usually use Optimum Nutrition but have tried several other brands so I decided to try this brand as well. The nutrients it contains are good, maybe even a little better than the regular protein brand. This morning I opened my package for my shake First problem: A bunch of gunpowder came out of the bag. I thought, "Okay, thinner at least means a softer drink." WRONG! More on that later. However, my kitchen and clothes were a mess. Second problem: the packaging does not close properly. Reduced durability and more powder dust. But wait. EAT MORE! Scoop: For some reason they gave it a ridiculously long handle. Not only that, but due to its consistency, the protein doesn't come off the scoop easily. More waste and MORE POWDER. As for smoothness, the powder is less grainy. Unfortunately, even with this and the whey blend, it actually gets thicker than my other brands. Now the worst: the taste is terrible! I don't mean "er, that's not the best". I mean "WHY DOES THIS TASTE LIKE I HAVE A CORN TORTILLA!?!?" Seriously. I used peach, pineapple, vanilla almond milk and protein powder. The taste is amazing with every other brand I've tried. This brand really did taste like I was eating corn tortilla! So I used up one serving, and I had about 1 1/2 more servings to go, and the rest of the pack went in the trash.
