not sweet protein shakes

[Globetrotter 1,340]

I'm as big a chocosaurus as the next gal, but I'm noticing that all of these Protein Drinks for our full liquid phase are sweet, either chocolate or fruit sweet. Are there any savory options out there? A high-gram Protein Drink that tastes more like beef broth or something savory might make a welcome change after days of sticky sweet. Does that exist?

UNJURY is Medical Quality whey Protein Isolate. Best Tasting whey Protein Powder. Most Trusted Whey Protein Powder Supplement. Taste the difference

You can actually order samples there as well.

I thought the unjury chicken Soup tasted like a salty chemical brine, so you might want to buy a sample of that first.

You could buy some unflavored whey Protein powder and add it to chicken or beef broth, or Soup. The GNC brand is barley noticeable in soup and smoothies.

I liked the chicken broth from Unjury, I understand our taste buds are changing so I still think it is best to buy samples before investing ....

I thought the Unjury chicken and beef broth were pretty blah, but the chicken Soup actually had some flavor.

I've never tried em, but I've heard people rave about the click espresso and other flavors.

I liked the unjury chicken Soup and that says a lot since I am not a salty/savory person but this broth had quite a bit of flavour. Reminded me of Lipton's soup (in the envelope) so if you like that, you should like the Unjury brand.

I was also getting sick of the 'sweetness' since I am not drawn to sweet post-op. The only Protein shake I can get down right now if I need to is the Premier Protein line at costco (only comes in chocolate, I think) so other than that, all of my Protein sources are coming from food.

I dont drink Protein shakes - before you die, I'm 5 years banded, not sleeved and not post op. I dont like them, find them too sickly sweet, and if you read the labels, theyre often either a big hit of sugar or of artificial sweetener, neither of which I'm keen on consuming.

I often make an egg flip - just an egg, skim milk and a dash of vanilla. Its not savoury, but not very sweet and with a shake of nutmeg on top, I really like them for Breakfast. There's about 17 grams of Protein there and nothing artificial (I use real vanilla).

I know some people will freak at the thought of raw eggs, but I've never had an issue and I've had egg flips since I was tiny.

[Globetrotter 1,340]

Jachut - hmm, do you blend the flips or just stir? Do you break the yolk? Do you think it would work with unflavored Protein powder mixed in? Is it best to drink them super cold? I'm not sleeved yet but I started this thread because just the idea of those sticky sweet jelly bullets ... *shudder*

This is interesting .. I have never heard of an egg flip before and my father mentioned this to me about a week ago. He said it's good. The idea of drinking a raw egg really makes my stomach flip :001_unsure: .. so I will have to pass. But I understand about the sweetness of the Protein Shakes. I find them awful and I used to like them as well so the majority of my protein intake comes from food. It's not always easy but I somehow manage it.

You blend them and you cant taste egg at all, that just adds some oomph and nutrition to the drink. It tastes mainly like milk and vanilla blended with some nutmeg on top.

egg flips are sort of traditional "sick food", the kind of thing your mum always makes you when you're ill or convalescing - a bit like chicken Soup. Its a habit of the 1970's that has kind of stuck with me.

I used to drink them as a kid. They are like egg nog minus the cream

I've been eating some butternut quash Soup with unflavored Protein added. Probably high in carbs but I am struggling to get any protein in and can't drink one more horrible Protein Shake
