Original Essential Protein - 25g Plant-Based Protein, Creamy Vanilla, 20 Servings, Vegan Non-GMO Drink Mix, Smoothie & Shake Ready, Gluten Free, Dairy Free, 32.5oz (Packaging May Vary)

I tried other whey based protein and would have occasional headaches. It's not uncommon. Started using Vega Essential and find it doesn't cause any gastric issues or headaches. Very short ingredient list is great to see compared to others. Personally like the Vanilla flavor. It mixes fine with water in a Shaker bottle. No, it doesn't taste like DQ blizzard. It's completely palatable for a daily supplement. I bought allot of it when it was marked down for an excellent price. Highly recommend!

I use this as a daily protein supplement, and it mixes smoothly without a gritty texture. The flavor is mild and not overly sweet, which makes it easy to drink consistently. It sits well and does not feel heavy after use. This is a solid option for anyone looking for a plant based protein for regular use.

The creamy chocolate flavor tastes good, mixes well, and doesn’t feel heavy. It’s plant-based but still gives a solid 25g of protein, which is perfect for a quick shake after workouts. Good quality and super easy to drink. Only thing I didn't like, its a bit powdery.

Love the item. I ordered the peanut butter flavor and I enjoy it on a daily basis. I know many people will not enjoy the flavor, but let’s be honest, when it comes to food and drinks, it all comes down to preference and taste buds. In my case I loved and my wife tolerates it. As far as quality, I do believe it is great quality as shown by some 3rd party studies. I enjoy the convenience and price of buying in bulk, especially when training. As far as keeping you satisfied, I think it does a good job, but because it is plant based don’t expect to fill like it can be a meal replacement, plus it is easily digestible, or at least that is my case, which I like too. I don’t feel bloated, nor gassy which has happened with other type of protein shakes. I will continue buying this product, especially when it is on sale and I stock up

Smooth. Creamy. Delicious. A wonderful additive to my morning yogurt mix. As a vegetarian, I am limited on protein powders and I need the protein to read my macro count. I am very pleased with this brand and the flavor!

So bummed Vega Essentials Shake seems to be discontinued. Had a sub for it and then automatically was switched to this Protein + Nutrition. Had been a fan of the Essentials Shake for years so I was optimistic, but P+N is notably more powdery or grittier. I am almost certain Essentials was also sweetened with stevia, but it comes through way more in P+N and the shake leaves an aftertaste. Giving it a 3 out of respect to the OG and because I bet if you didn’t have Essentials to compare with it, it might seem like a good chocolate protein mix, but I’ll be starting a search for a new option.

I been purchasing Vega vanilla protein powder for over a year and have really enjoyed it on a daily basis. It tastes great when blended with water, a banana (frozen or not), and lemon electrolyte powder which I have each morning as breakfast. My only complaint, and the reason I have to find a new protein powder, is that it is packaged in a giant plastic tub. Because I have the protein powder daily, and only twenty servings come in a tub, I feel I’m producing far too much plastic waste for my own protein benefit. If the company is listening, please create alternative packaging that creates less waste!

Quality protein, easy on the stomach. Vanilla is light with a slightly fruity back note making it funky with coffee but delicious with green tea. Mixes easily no clumping even when dumped in water and stirred. Slightly gritty unless mixed with hot liquid. I like to mix up a batch of latte type drink when I meal prep. Also works as creamer substitute.
