YUCK!!



I am at work and I just opened my "New Whey" liquid protein (bullet) in blue raspberry,.  I figured I love blueberries and raspberries what could be better.. well it tastes horrible.. I have this habit of smelling everything before I eat it (am I alone here??)  The smell was the first sign that this was not going to be a good choice (the label states 25 g of protein).  I mean the smell was like a soured old dish cloth ... you know that gaggy smell. Well the taste is not much better..

SO .. here is my question, has anyone experienced or can recommend a palatable tasing protein liquid (not shake just liquid protein).  I thought these would be good  when I have to be on long tcons and don't get a chance to have lunch.. I could sip them. .but my lord.. I can not drink this thing.. 
I know I can have real food available.. but there are just those times when chewing is not an option during the calls.

  1. Oh No, that sucks!!! I also smell everything before I eat it. I have not found a good liquid one (can't stand the Muscle Milks although I know a lot of people who love them) so I'll be tuning in to see what everyone has to say!

  2. I hated New Whey. I have heard people say if you pour it over ice or dilute it it is better, but that isn't always easy when you are on go. I also didn't like the Isopure, but they were much better than the New Whey. The one I have liked so far is the Designer Whey Protein Water. It wasn't bad at all. It has a mild flavor and a little bit of an after taste, but more similar to that of flavored waters. I also liked the Muscle Milks, but the thickness started to make me gag (even though I have no restriction). Plus my nutrionist didn't like the idea since they are mostly used by people trying to gain weight (according to her).

  3. I will have to let you know how I like my Liquid Health I just received in the mail today. Time will tell, I am hoping bc it's liquid I can blend in a shake or something.

  4. I put unjury unflavored in crystal light, that is the best protein drink I have found that is not a shake..

  5. Hi there ! EEK I totally know that feeling. I tried the Jay Rabb one in chocolate and literally wanted to pull out my tongue of how just AWFUL that was !! The ones that I like are the Isopure ones that they sell at GNC. The fruit punch one and the other green one are really good. One bottle has 40g of protein and it taste like I doc'd up version of gatorade or something like it.

  8. I too did the new whey, but I poured it in a big glass of crystal light. I hear the unjury unflavored is really good.

  9. Another vote for Unjury. It's probably the best. Google it, and you can buy it online. Definitely a safe buy.

  10. Hey thanks everyone.. I think I need to explore my New Whey boundaries, as from what you all have said there are other options out there. I don't know why I have a mental block when I read unjury, I keep seeing injury, and that's as far as my brain wants to compute.. but I will look for this and I will try the crystal light mix as well Kinzie.. I have a few of these things left and would hate to waste them..(but then again if I can swallow it no use in torturing myself...
