It's an acquired taste...
It really doesn't taste great, but after getting through 3/4 of the giant 5 lb tub (and mostly hating it), I finally tried mixing it with orange juice today and it's soooo much more palatable that way! It really needs something strong and sweet to cover the flavor. The 5lb tub is really affordable, and has clean ingredients, so I'll probably keep buying it and trying to find ways to make it drinkable.Update months later: I have now switched 100% to this powder. I love it because it's so clean and cheap. I always add fruit to it however, because on its own there's absolutely no sweetness. I recommend freezing bananas adding a banana to it. This makes it taste like mildly sweet milk and so I use that on my cereal. It's great with other fruits like frozen strawberries or blueberries.

It’s a win!
Guys, for the cost this is a great value! Protein powder can be so expensive but this is at such a great price! Obviously I drink these for the added protein in my diet. I try to reach about 1 gram of protein per body weight daily. I don’t drink protein drinks for a pleasurable drink 99% of the time.. this just gets the job done. It’s not horrible tasting but it’s just not like a strawberry protein smoothie either. If you are looking for that than look elsewhere. This is low in fat, calories and no sugar which is what I am looking for in added supplements. It mixes very well too! I don’t even need a shaker, just a spoon. Will definitely continue buying as long as the cost stays the same. 👌💪🏼

Good quality, good price
It dissolves quickly and has a mild pea taste that's easily masked. I decided to try this when my usual brand was out of stock, and I'd have no problem ordering it again.The only advantage with my usual brand is that their flavor is milder, but this one's good also and it has the advantage of coming in a resealable container with a dosing scoop plus it's a bit cheaper.So far, all the Nutricost products I've tried have been top notch, and i wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Don't even bother with that other big supplement company whose initials are "bs". Half their stuff seems impure or ineffective.Update: Nutricost is my primary brand now. I'm on like my 6th 5lb container lol

Good budget plant based protein
Research shows this is a good and healthy product. Cheaper than other popular brands with good ingredients. Taste isn’t that great so blend with a banana or your choice of fruit to make tasty.

Bad taste
The taste is so horrible. The only flavor that I can find to drown out the taste is using either chocolate milk or chocolate almond milk, but it still taste bad when I add two scoops.

Good protein at an affordable price....
I bought this protein on the recommendation of a friend. It doesn't taste like much of anything, which is good because I can mix it with pretty much anything and it doesn't ruin the other flavors. It does increase the thickness of my shakes, but it's smooth, and it's thinned out easily, again, without ruining the shake. I've bought this twice now and am about to order more as this is now my go to protein.

Find good recipes & it works
I bought this as an alternative to protein powder, because it has no sugar or other icky fake stuff that’s in conventional protein powders. It’s definitely healthy (a complete protein, etc) and I love that. It does “show up” more in whatever it’s in, if that makes sense. It thickens a lot which means adding more liquid if you’re putting it in shakes. It has a tan color as well. It doesn’t taste good or really that bad either, but if you put too much of it in something it will absolutely taste nasty mostly because the texture will get too thick and grainy. It’s kind of a high maintenance ingredient.

I've Fallen in Love w/ the Flavor Signature
Make your way over to the 1-star reviews, and complaints on the flavor profile of the protein powder will leap off the screen at you. It's my assumption that these reviewers are, for one, spoiled by the additive-replete protein powders & shakes they've consumed all their lives, and for two, not being realistic about what to expect from a protein powder that boasts one singular ingredient: organic pea protein isolate. No fillers, no sweeteners, no flavorants; of course it's not going to stack up with the ON Whey you guzzled for 6 consecutive years during your roid-raged college tenure (you Van Wilder Chad). While this protein powder is characterized as being "unflavored," it does have a unique flavor signature to it that I've actually come to adore, and that's whether I mix it into protein shakes, incorporate it into baked/cooked goods, or eat it straight w/ a gulp's-worth of water. And yes, I do eat it straight w/ a mouthful of water sometimes. When, you might wonder? Well, I tend to be strict with my diet for the most part, but occasionally, I'll get the urge to binge-eat on some sweets. What's my go-to? Snickers Mini's & Twix Fun-Size's. 2 Snickers, followed by 1 Twix, and then repeat the cycle. And then repeat the cycle. And then repeat. And theN REPEAT. AND THEN REPEAT. I'm scarfing down these highly-processed, acrylamide-rich chocolate treats like some sort of demented mole-rat, and at a point between bites, I begin whispering to my snacks, "precious, PRECIOUS." Eventually & inevitably, I knock out, only to awaken from my slumber the following morning w/ those shooting psychological pains we call regret. But alas! I'm not as regretful as I can be, becuz in my demented mole-rat state, I somehow still managed to cleverly knock back a couple grams of the pea protein isolate powder w/ water to chase down my chocolate calamity. "At least I got some protein in," I reason w/ myself. At least the binge-meal wasn't *strictly* fats & sugars.P.S., some goof-ball named Edgar posted a video of the protein powder behaving differently than other protein powders. The reason for that is static, and this powder is especially prone to it becuz it doesn't include certain adulterants, like gums, that prevent that sort of behavior. Ppl, if we want more pure goods, we lose some of the properties that you've grown accustomed to w/ products that otherwise have additives. Those substances weren't included by the product designers for nothing; they serve a purpose that ultimately pleases the customer, whether you're aware of it or not. When you seek a more pure product, you have to tolerate some blemishes & imperfections that are rendered in a vacuum of these adulterants. Get w/ the program.P.P.S., the protein powder stirs better in water than most other protein powders, and that's probably due to the static that the isolate tends to develop (water molecules are polar). The same static that got Edgar freaking out about metals.Buy it. Enjoy it. And stay away from Snickers & Twix.

Great Value
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.
