Great for Body Building This is a great product for vegetarians who want to get away from Soy and build muscle as well. I've gained 10 pounds taking half of what is recommended on the container. I'm feeling great and I'm not on a weight increase diet. I haven't changed my normal diet whatsoever. I think it tastes great with or without fruit but I prefer it with. April 8, 2013
good stuff we really like the Optimal Plant Proteins. Quick and easy to use! March 14, 2013
Good protein source This is a good plant source of protein. Mixes well and tastes OK. Use it almost every day. February 23, 2013
Awful! This tastes awful, has an awful after taste, doesn't mix well at all. I am usually a fan of Jarrow products, but they really missed the mark on this one. I tried mixing it in my blender bottle with 4 ounces of juice and 4 ounces of water, as I've done with other protein powders, and this just does not mix well at all. Lots of clumps and just tastes awful. This is the first product I've ever been so dissatisfied with that I'm returning it. I'll stick with the Plantfusion protein powders! February 13, 2013
Optimal Plant Proteins really like this product, have bought it before and it works great in my breakfast smoothies. February 4, 2013
I Wanted to Love This I have tasted some pea/rice powder that tastes ok, but this stuff is just too grainy and the taste is not good. I'll probably gag it down because I don't want it to go to waste but I won't order more or recommend it. January 15, 2013
Best product out there This is by far the best mix of vegan protein I have tried and you cannot beat the price! January 14, 2013
Pleased with this product I have used several protein products, and have liked this one, and it is more affordable with the Swanson's discount price on Jarrow products.it has a fairly good taste, good texture, and is easily digestible. I sometimes enjoy it in juices as well, and also mixed with other supplements. March 18, 2012
