Taste		I was asked to rate this when I ordered so here ya go: mixes well in a shaker cup to go, tastes pretty bad
Taste		but I got unflavored intentionally.
Taste		What do u expect...unflavored pea powder doesn't sound like it would tasted good.
Taste		I flavor my shake with fruit/veg in blender most of the time.
Mixes well		I was asked to rate this when I ordered so here ya go: mixes well in a shaker cup to go, tastes pretty bad
Value for money		Good deal price per serving wise.


Taste		The taste is horrible, which was unexpected since it is an unflavored.
Taste		Ironicially the taste overwhelm a shake made with orange juice, yogurt, and frozen fruit.


Texture		The texture is a little dry so you feel it going down in your throat
Taste		The taste is not horrible
Taste		Taste is nowhere near as sweet and flavorful as my ISO-100 or my Dymatize casein
Taste		I give it a 7/10 in taste.
Mixes well		The protein mixes well with most liquids.
Mixes well		I personally mix it with 8-10 oz. of sugar free drink and it mixes well.


Texture		:l The texture even after shaking can feel like you are still inhaling dust.....but it shouldn't make you gag.
Taste		:P The taste is decent....not advised to "just add water" if you are picky with taste.
Value for money		The stuff is really cheaply priced for a considered "healthy" supplelement when compared to others with minimal amount of additives.


Taste		This tastes like garbage and I'll probably dump it out.


Taste		...Okay, established it tastes like dried vomit.
Taste		however, and if you are trying to do without harmful sweeteners and sugar I s****est mixing it with: almond milk 1 banana cacao powder or cocoa almond butter or peanut butter your sweetener of choice OR frozen blueberries almond milk almond or peanut butter your sweetener of choice So tasty....good as a breakfast shake or post workout if you work out or can make it home from the gym in time.


Taste		This tastes delicious in homemade soups.
Taste		I put a scoop in my veggie soup and it makes it creamy and adds a good flavor


Mixes well		It mixes well with just about anything in a blender.
Value for money		You can't beat the price, the amount of grams of protein per serving and the amino acid profile.
Ingredient profile		You can't beat the price, the amount of grams of protein per serving and the amino acid profile.


Texture		The flavor is not good and it's too thick when you mix it with any liquid.
Texture		I make fruit & vegetable smoothies, so the flavor is not way too strong.

Texture		My solution to this was blending it with a teaspoon of cinnamon, banana, almond milk, and ice making the perfect smoothie.
Taste		The flavor is horrible.


Taste		This tastes like puke, if you have no taste buds this product is for you!


Texture		but the consistency was not the same even tho it was the same product.
Taste		It smelled different and the difference in taste was substantial.


Texture		I love it, texture is fine and it is unflavored so great to mix in.

Gas or bloating	but sometimes I think it would make me a little bloated and gassy.

Muscle gain		I have been taking it for two months months (I didn't take any protein before) and I have seen significant gains in my strength and size.
Strength		I have been taking it for two months months (I didn't take any protein before) and I have seen significant gains in my strength and size.
Taste		This protein is great except for the taste!
Taste		Let me say again, this is not a protein powder for someone who is very picky on taste.


Taste		Others have complained about the taste (like "disgusting).
Taste		It tastes like.....not chicken,


Taste		Have you been scared off because of the bad Taste Reviews?
Taste		Listen, it doesn't taste good, rather, if you take a scoop and put it in a shaker with just water, you are going to have a bad time.
Taste		But, having tasted some AWFUL gainers in my past, i tell you that this is a bar above them.
Value for money		However, most of the Vegan products on the market are very pricing, because they are Vegan.
Value for money		However, NOW's products have always been a bit cheaper then their competition, and frankly, just as good if not better.
Value for money		This Pea Protein, is very high In Complete Aminos, and because of this i think it's amazing for it's price.


Taste		Taste is fine, you'll get used to it.
Anti-catabolic		No added preservatives or sweetners.
Ingredient profile		The amino acid profile is great.
