There certainly are alot of Protein Shakes out there since I looked 8 years, when doing BO. I used to take whey protein too, but I didn't really like the way they taste.
About a year ago, I looked into this for my now DH, who is dairy intolerant, and needs serious protein for body building. I found one called Plant Fusion, which is Vegan, no dairy or animal products. He really likes it, and can feel a difference in his muscles when he uses this one. He really hated the soy ones, and didn't feel they were as good.
I just ordered some more, because I've been using it for my new boob regimen, and it feels like it makes a difference for me! I just returned to NB after 1 year and am thinking about trying BB, so would up my usage a bit with this one. It tastes pretty good and comes in chocolate, vanilla, unflavored and a new chocolate raspberry. we have all the flavors. my favorite way to prepare the chocolate one is:
makes one serving in a 24 oz container
put 12 oz cold rice milk in a shake container
add 2 tablespoon of chocolate syrup and one scoop of protein
shake until dissolved
pour in ice cold carbonated mineral water/club soda to taste (i use about 6-12 oz)
To me it tastes alot like an old fashioned New York egg cream (which does not have an egg LOL)
It's pretty expensive (I think all the good ones that are whey also are) and I saw a few that were similar when I bought this one, all based on Pea Powder.
HTH
