    It's just a supplement with a smaller protein content than a protein shake, some carbs, creatine, glutamine and leucine. The last two will add little (that's not to say leucine does nothing but here it will add little).

    It's the same price as whey protein but servings are twice the size. Be better off buying protein and creatine imho.

    the way you mix it might affect what you think about it. I had some at home I was using in cooking, tried it with milk but used a food mixer and just added in some vanilla drops and whisked it up, very tasty and a nice texture, it fluffed up a bit. if you are just shaking it in a bottle its going to be a bit lumpy maybe?

    On a slight tangent, I changed to soya milk in my porridge a few years ago. Took to it ok. Then one morning I had ran out so used full fat dairy.

    I found it so sickly sweet and strange tasting I could barely eat it. In fact it was horrible. Soya milk all the way now in my porridge.

    When I first switched to soya I was so used to dairy milk that I didn't really like it. After a week or two I loved it. I guess we just like what we are used to in a lot of cases. I tried dairy milk after a few months and it felt horrible to me, thick and "phlegmy". Love most of the unsweetened alternatives now. Oat milk is great. For drinking oats while you eat your oats. Great for cappuccinos etc too.

    Same kinda thing when I stopped eating all dairy, how would I ever give up cheese? After a while I didn't give a crap about it, at all. Tastebuds adapt very well, I eat so many wholefoods now that even fruit seems soooo sweet and I crave healthy foods like beans haha.

    Ye, the ON Gold Standard protein is definitely one of the nicer ones, but it's also more expensive than most :/

    MyProtein Salted Caramel is the best I've had. It's not a strong taste, goes well in a blender with most things, especially banana & peanut butter.

    Been trying overnight oats lately so will look to mix it in with that next and see how it turns out.

    I've been going with

    x2 scoops Oats
    x4 Milk
    x1 Greek Yogurt
    Some vanilla extract
    spoon of honey
    blueberries
    walnuts, pecan & milled flaxseed (add in the morning)

    With the price of my protein and SciTech whey these days i just buy optimum nutrition whey now, it's only 10er dearer on the large bag compared to others and hands down the best. You get what you pay for in the protein game.
