Peeps tend to like the Nectar although it is too sweet to me. I like the Isopure chocolate and vanilla powders - they come the closest to not tasting like a protein powdery drink to me.

Whitney turned me on to the Isopure Chocolate as well. Ever since our conversation about it over a month ago...I've used nothing else. It doesn't have that "protein" taste to me, it tastes a little like the sugar free chocolate Nesquik I used to drink. I'm not drinking it for pleasure or anything, but it certainly tastes better than the other dozen protein supplements I tried.
Just keep looking around...you'll find something that will work.

I add Unjury chicken broth to my Campbell's soup. I enjoy that the most. I also add vanilla protein powder to sf hot chocolate (mix it in the blender) and that's really good, too.

Lisa,
If you're going to the Vitamin Shoppe...sign up for the savings card. I get coupons all the time from them in the email...and there is sometimes significant savings with that card. They also have protein bars and stuff, but I honestly like the South Beach Diet bars the best and they are cheap.
Good Luck...don't buy a bunch of stuff yet though...I think the Vitamin shoppe had some sample packets you could buy for a couple of bucks each.
Let us know what you find!
-Mike

Costco EAS
I love the Costco EAS pro powder in my smoothies. Also, Costco, Tarder Joes and GNC will let you return opened product with receipt if you don't like it. When I was post op I went to TJ and bought one of each kind they had, and returned most of them. I also swear by Unjury unflavored to stir into anything cold.
