So, does anyone else scratch their heads at the drastic difference of taste between premier powder and the pre-made shakes? I love the shakes, but the powder tastes horrible. I have three giant tubs of the stuff I am stuck with lol (An expensive mistake). Anything I can do to make the powder more palatable? Suggestions?

LOL now see I can't stand the premade (tastes like plastic to me) and can only tolerate the powder!

The powder has a weird spoiled milk taste to me. Can't get it past my nose lol

Try drinking from a cup with a lid on it so you don't smell it. That helps me anyway because it keeps me from smelling it

Add another stronger smell to it. Nut butter might make the scent.

Same here. Could only tolerate pre made during pre-op liquid and they turn my stomach post op. Powder for me now.

I do find adding icemakes them even more enjoyable.

Add something to it. vanilla or any flavor of the Torani sugar-free flavorings.... you can get a 12oz bottle at Walmart for about $4.00, I think they are by the coffees usually. It comes in Caramel, vanilla, Hazlenut, Rasberry, Toffee, strawberry, etc...

Try to stick with anything chocolate, Vitamin Shoppe has some great ones, and you can get a 5lb tub for $49.99, I finished mine and have to to my old strawberry powder I ordered from online and it is horrible, unfortunately since I workout with weight training I have to take it, try these tricks if you have chocolate, substitute Silk for Water, try to add some Decaf coffee instant packets ( my favorite with 1 packet Splenda, Protein Powder and non dairy Creamer in a blender with ice) or 2 small squirts of chocolate Syrup, also if you use water it is preferable to use very cold filtered water, tap makes it taste worse.....

Neat idea with the silk...gonna try that! Also never considered the syrups, guess old me just thought I had to stay away from things like that lol.

If you have the "moderation" thingy under control you can indulge in little things like that, just back off if you start wanting to make chocolate shakes using massive amounts, I'm doing great except that I still never go near Energy drinks, it will set me off.........

@@flokismom - Just be sure to use the sugar free syrups. There is sugar alcohol in them which bothers some people, but a little goes a LONG way.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
