Bulk Pea Protein Isolate Powder, Vegan Protein Shake, 1 kg, 33 Servings, Packaging May Vary

Good quality product and brilliant value for money. Easy to measure and dissolves easily in a shaker. It has a lot less foam than other brands. Slightly silky texture which some may not appreciate, but doesn't bother me. The powder does have a bit of an unpleasant flavour, as do all pea protein powders. I just swallow holding my breath and don't taste at all. I shake this first and wait for the foam to dissipate, and then add a scoop of AG1, and consume within 30 minutes of waking as per the Slow Carb diet / Four Hour Body. Gives good and reliable energy early in the day.

I see a lot of negative reviews for this product which are very unfair. Yes, this powder tastes horrible when mixed with just water (or as one reviewer tried, coffee?). Complaining about this is like buying turmeric and complaining that it makes your strawberry milkshake taste weird. It is unflavoured protein that has been extracted from peas, it tastes exactly like it sounds. When you start using it as an ingredient in other things, however, it is much much better. I have found this protein powder to be very well suited to things that other powders are not. For instance, whey protein congeals into disgusting lumps when mixed into any hot liquid, but pea protein does not. I like to mix it into spicy soups, which the savoury pea flavour works very well with. If you want to use it in shakes, you definitely need to add sweetness (unless you want a savoury shake?). My current protein shake recipe is to blend a scoop of this powder with milk, frozen berries, an egg and a pinch of sucralose (bulk powders sells this too). I actually prefer this to the version made with whey protein (unflavoured). I've not tried it with almond milk or vegan alternatives to milk, but it will probably work too. Adding a banana will make the shake thicker and creamier too. I will continue to buy this powder, and also will continue to buy whey protein, and as a rule of thumb, use the whey in sweet recipes and the pea stuff for anything savoury. If you want something that you can just mix into water and shake, don't get this, get one of the flavoured powders.

It really doesn't suit my palate. I've found that, despite its mild odour, it has a rather acidic taste to it. To the point that after a few days of it I can't bring myself to drink any more. To make matters worse, it's the messiest powder I've had to deal with, too. It's difficult to mix. It clumps up very easily, leaving half the mass stuck to the inside of the shaker. Not only that, something about it seems to "fizz" so the shaker ends up oozing the mix out seal between the bottle and lid, or causing a rather explosive exit when you pop the lid on the shaker. I've got about 0.9kg of a 1kg bag left, and it's going in the bin. Not as cheap as I thought it was going to be...

I didn't realise how bad it would taste until trying it. It tastes god awful, but works incredibly well. The protein content per 100g is 83%, is pure pea protein and packed in a non-plastic bag, so no estrogenics for those worried. I've tried mixing Peanut Butter, Raspberries, etc and none of them get rid of the after taste. Take the advice of another reviewer and wash every gulp down with as much water as possible.

I really can not understand the other reviews here complaining about the taste. It does not have a strong distinctive taste at all and when added to a banana smoothie, as I take it, I can't taste it at all. I've used hemp protein in the past and that stuff tastes like ground up dirt with a similar consistency. What I will say is this does make very thick shakes so be warned you may have to use a little more liquid than normal to make it drinkable. Another bonus of pea protein is that it is a rather good addition to baking. I'm gluten intolerant so I'm constantly experimenting with different flours to get better results in my baking. Adding pea protein powder to biscuits, cakes and bread has had some rather excellent results. It is still no substitute for having gluten but my cake game has reached a new level. There are obvious pros and cons with nearly all whey substitutes and this is no different. But it really doesn't taste that bad (not like pea at all if anything I'd say it was rather pleasant) and the price is insanely good for the amount you get, even if you only end up using it in baking you'll get some great results and your monies worth.

A pea protein and a good one at that. I don't understand all the complaints, have people never tasted unflavored 80% whey protein? not the tastiest of things. The price is fantastic and you can always stock up when the sales come around. I have yet to regret making a purchase from Bulk Powders and their service is consistent in product and people. You're looking at approximately 400 - 450ml of water for 55g of powder. Water first, add in the powder, mix with a spoon and then drink. Sure, it tastes bland and has a texture akin to a paste but it far removed from being the worst tasting unflavored protein powder. I highly recommend this product for anyone having digestive issues with isolate and concentrate whey proteins. It is a cheaper alternative and if you're looking to cut down on your daily intake of beef or chicken you can throw a pea protein shake in. Packaging is both strong and resealable with printed information on the back and a scoop inside. Look forward to no foul diary smell in your shakers Be aware of the salt content of this product and your current daily intake. update Sep 2017 - with powders things change from batch to batch. The batch I have currently tastes stronger and looks darker than the previous one. Hold nose and neck it all.

They must have changed the recipe because I've been fine with unflavoured before but my recent purchase is disgusting.

Adds a strong unpleasant taste to your smoothies and gives me the runs.

Dissolves good, not thick, very easy on the stomach. It's like you didn't drink anything at all. You can drink it in any small amount of water. Taste is a shocker the first sip, but you get used to it as you drink it.

Proteine pure senza zucchero aggiunti e quindi molto indicati per chi fa sport e non può assumere zuccheri

Great protein powder at a great price (14€). I use it in conjunction with the flavored soy isolate (vanilla) to balance the amino acid profile and to cut down the sweetness of the latter. The taste itself is similar to any other pea protein powder (I would use it on its own only in savory dishes or cakes, but not in a drink).

Tomo una dosis diaria. Es fácil de digerir. Se disuelve bastante bien. El sabor es aceptable.
