DELICIOUS AND HEALTHY!

I am trying to eliminate all animal products from my diet. As someone who exercises quite a bit, I found that my protein levels were pretty low even though I ate a lot of nuts and beans. So I started looking into vegan protein powders. I had several criteria that I had to meet in my search. First, I didn't want to eat too much soy, so the powder had to be soy-free. Second, I didn't want sugar-free sweeteners. I looked at so many and they all seemed to contain stevia or some other sugar free sweetener. I personally hate stevia and would prefer sugar! For some reason, marketers think that sugar is bad and stevia is good when you're vegan. Anyway, when I found this and saw that it was vegan, soy-free, and unsweetened, I had to try it. I'm very glad I did. When I got it I only tried the powder at first and didn't find it uncomfortable at all. The vanilla flavor is very subtle. You can also try sea salt, but it's not salty at all. The powder is very fine, so I was able to mix it well with a fork or shake it well. Adding it to pure soy milk resulted in a nice creamy, smooth drink. (I know I don't want to overdo it with soy, but that was the only one I had). It was really good. It doesn't taste like dirt, it's not too chalky or bitter. And I feel good knowing I'm getting a lot of protein (22g) with no added sugars or chemicals. The fact that it's a blend of different protein sources means you're getting a varied list of amino acids too. I find this powder provides a complete protein profile. If not, then it's definitely close. I plan to get many more!
