Nutricost Casein Protein Powder 5lb (Chocolate) | Micellar Casein, Gluten Free, GMO-Free

Our all-time favorite casein protein powder (we rarely do whey protein--don't like the texture and we've had great results with this slow-burning protein) was Dymatize Elite Casein in the "rich chocolate" flavor. Absolutely delicious and fantastic consistency. BUT, for anyone health-minded, looking at the ingredient label was hard to stomach. Lots of fillers and especially the presence of ingredients known to be bad for gut health (e.g., Xanthan Gum). At the end of the day, yes, they both have sucralose (another name for Splenda) in them, but the ingredients in this product are far more appealing (and simple) than those in the Dymatize. Ideally I'd love to see an option which used say monkfruit + allulose as the sweetener.As far as "clumpiness" this mixes really well. You just have to know what you're doing with casein protein powders in general in order to mix it smooth. We use a Ninja Bullet blender for our protein shakes and it works great. Very smooth and creamy result. It's also pretty mixable and smooth and creamy just with enough water. The less water you use the thicker it'll be.I've tried MANY protein powders and if you don't like this one I'm not sure if you'll find any that you do like. I'm very picky about taste and texture and relative healthiness of ingredients, and for me this is (on the whole) about the best you can do. Plus it's actually about as affordable as they get. Some of these protein powders are insanely pricely (looking at you Dymatize). So this is a great combination: it's an affordable and effective and tasty protein powder.

Primo product and excellent value.

This is the first time I've tried powdered protein, but I wanted to stay away from pre-made shakes with seed oils. I purchased this in the chocolate flavor, and it's pretty good! My daughter likes to mix it with milk, but I like it better with water. To me, it has a weird texture when mixed with milk and honestly, makes me gag! I have found that it tastes FAR better if it is shaken to mix, instead of stirred. If you stir it, it doesn't mix properly and it just tastes really, really bad.Overall, I think it's a pretty good quality protein powder without added garbage. We are not taking it for muscle gain, so I don't know about that, but on the whole, this is a good product, even though it takes a bit of getting used to.

I don’t know how y'all are mixing this that are giving it great reviews, but I’ve tried blending it in the bullet blender and the textures thick (which is good) but SO gritty. At this point I’m forcing myself to drink it just not to waste it, because I can’t return it. So for me it’s a total waste of money. Don’t recommend
