Nutricost Organic Pea Protein Isolate Powder (5LBS)

I moved to this protein powder after using a flavoured protein powder. It feels nicer in the mind to be getting fewer ingredients and yet the same protein quantity. However, be ready for the first few tastes to taste "off". It had a noticeable pea flavour the first few times, but this disappears as you take the powder for more than three or four times. Then the taste becomes normal and all is well in the world. The powder dissolves easily and without lumps I found, and I have been dissolving it in soya milk or flax milk. Very happy. Big old container, so have a bit of space in the cupboard for it! I like the screw cap on top of the container, you can be sure it is securely closed (which is harder to do with the squeeze close pouches some protein powders are packaged in).

This is a great value. High protein, organic, no BS. As to the reviews stating that this stuff is disgusting, it ain't disgusting. I wouldn't call it tasty but I literally throw it in a bottle of water and drink it that way. It tastes like flour.

Mixed with organic barista oat milk it gives me the calories that I need for a nutritious milkshake which I add organic Stevia, flavoring and crush my vitamins. It’s 300 cal without all the sugar and unnecessary additives. It’s also lower in sodium than the others.

I started using this protein powder a few months ago because I wanted to eat better and get a little more protein in my day. I didn’t really want the milk-based stuff since it never sat right with me. A friend told me about this one that’s plant-based, so I gave it a try. It’s nothing fancy, but it works. It’s unflavored, which was kinda weird at first. I tried it with just water and honestly, it tasted a little plain and chalky. But once I started blending it with stuff like bananas or peanut butter, it got way better. It mixes okay—not super smooth, but not clumpy either. Just gotta shake it up a bit. What I like is that it feels light and doesn’t leave me feeling heavy after. I usually have it after a workout or in the morning if I’m in a rush. It keeps me full for a while and gives me a nice boost to start the day. The only annoying parts are the size of the tub—it takes up a lot of room—and how messy the powder is. It’s super fine and seems to get everywhere if you’re not careful scooping it. You kinda have to go slow or it puffs out into the air. Still, it’s solid overall and I’m glad I stuck with it.

The flavor is kind of neutral but you definitely need to add things with a lot of flavor. It would be best in vegetable smithies or fruit. However I was very disappointed as there was no measuring scoop and I poured it out in a sifting bowl and no scoop! So I have been trying to figure out how to measure and convert to tablespoons. That was my only big disappointment! But it mixes well but would not recommend mixing it in juice or with water! I tried it added into a chocolate protein shake but it tasted nasty and had to add a bunch of chocolate syrup so that kind of defeated the purpose. I used only 2 tablespoons and do not know if that was close to the serving size at is says on the container a scoop equals 24grams. I could not consume it if 24 grams is equal to 2 tablespoons! Maybe the only way it would taste better is in a shake with ice cream! But kind of disappointed especially for the price and they could not put a measuring scoop in the container! So I may look for some other options or company! It kind of made me nauseated! Probably due to having to add all the syrup. It says flavorless and it is absolutely not flavorless!

What I like is that it’s organic and it contains protein. Because it’s unflavoured you can add it to shakes, porridge, bread and cakes. What I don’t like is that there’s no information about the amino acids. I ask Nutricost about this detail and the answer was very disappointing: “We appreciate your interest in our products. Nutricost products are manufactured or packaged in a GMP-certified, FDA-registered facility. We provide comprehensive information on our product labels, adhering to regulatory requirements for ingredient disclosure and labeling. However, any detail beyond what is listed is proprietary and confidential. Unfortunately, we are unable to disclose further details. We value your understanding and appreciate your continued support.” I wouldn’t recommend it, because the amino acids are the most important information for me. It shouldn’t be withheld!

this seems fine and mostly tastes like the other brand I was using but this is organic so should be better. The taste doesn't seem particularly different in the mix of proteins and sweeteners that I use. I blend my proteins into almond milk. I disagree with the people who say it tastes horrible. people complaining that it doesn't mix into a liquid should use a frother like https://a.co/d/hHHiI04

The nutra cost product pea protein isolate to be specific is an excellent pea protein isolate I would advise everyone to buy it it is cost effective at 5 lb for $62 You're not going to get a better deal I would highly recommend it it doesn't have any nasty aftertaste and it mixes well if you use a mason jar with a solid lid and shake it up good it won't leak and you won't be disappointed seven

First time trying this product. Doesn't taste any different than the pre-existing brand I have been using which is non-organic. With such a great price point for an organic product, I will be switching to this brand in future.
