Is there a way to make whey taste less gross?
I tried the "standard" flavors (Choc, Vanilla) but they're all too disgustingly sweet.
"Unflavored" has this gross, chalky flavor I can't mask no matter what.
I even tried "salty" shakes but it still tasted like chalk.

I'm considering just paying and drinking filtered milk (like Fairlife) or just eating real food...

Toss into the blender a banana and blueberries. You're welcome.

Yeah mixing with food works great.

I mix protein shakes because I'm not a morning person and need it quick, so what I do is half serving of whey half serving of cassien and Chocolate Fairlife 26gram plus other stuff like msm and creatine. Tastes like chocolate milk and get 55 grams.

>>76505226
I've tried that before but honestly it's not doing much to hide it. The Unflavored starts tasing like baby biscuits then it turn into a pure "artifical" flavor

>>76505207 (OP)
Try different brands until you find one you like. For me it’s Muscle Milk.

I'm honestly just looking for ways to eat it instead of drink it
The texture when I drink it makes me want to throw up

When I have my coffee I put some olive oil in it, to be more healthy. I can't even taste it!

I--I'm a genius , right?

>>76505207 (OP)
Are you a women? Sound like a woman.

>>76505207 (OP)
you're mixing it into water aren't you fucking retard

>>76505251
used to be like that. here's what worked for my friend.
train yourself to be able to chug like 12 beers over 3 hours.
then instead just chug the whey protein + water. and tossing it in the freezer for 30 mins reduces the flavor/texture. the vanilla flavor actually ends up tasting like shitty cheap ice cream. but it looks like cum. so I stick with chocolate flavor.

>>76505207 (OP)
Get Naked Whey. ON and other whey brands taste artificial and disgustingly sweet because they are. Naked Whey uses natural flavors and organic coconut sugar for a mildly sweet flavor. I just started getting it myself after getting sick of ON and I like it much better. I’m a fan of the strawberry flavor which literally only has three ingredients (whey, crushed dried strawberries, and sugar).

>>76506682
>Naked Whey
Jesus that's expensive
Doesn't MyProtein make a naturally sweetened powder?

>>76505207 (OP)
If the protein powder is too sweet, try adding it to a savory liquid like liquid whey or egg whites. It balances out pretty nicely.

>>76505207 (OP)
Just got the Double Rich Chocolatte one from ON and I don't find it to be terribly sweet. Also the milk that I drink it with really affects how it tastes. Two options for you: I love coffee so what I do is make it like a Cappuccino, so milk, Whey and a good instant coffee that tastes stronger than the chocolate from the Whey or mix a scoop with milk and oats, you'll get lots of protein and clean carbs that will aid in satisfaction so you won't feel hungry for a while after that

I don't mind the taste but the way it makes my breath smell and mouth feel after drinking it is so fucking bad

>>76505207 (OP)
You think theyre too sweet? Odd.
Can you do sweet tea from Whataburger (if youre lucky enough to be near one) or McDonalds or Buccees (see Whataburger comment)? I can NOT! Its too sweet. Just trying to gauge your palate.

Unironically get a better brand.
Whey is not milk sugar, so it has no sweet taste. Diluted IN milk it should not be sweeter than supermarket milkshakes, but a lot of them are for god knows what reason. Same with diluting in water

>>76506951
I generally drink everything unsweetened.
I prefer cold, unsweetened green/oolong tea.
I don't eat many sweets/cakes.
I have a particular dislike for chocolate (unless it's very dark and has little/no sugar).
Sweets just make me feel sick in general, I can't stand them.

I generally prefer savory/sour foods. I tried having whey with yogurt but it never works.

>>76506983
Interesting. Try getting protein with real food, eggs, cottage cheese, etc. then. Have you tried this (see link) I think its VERY good. Put water in it and make PB. Not very sweet as you will find out when you try it. Low fat (Im not worried about that aspect) and VERY LOW sugar.

ON is like Milwaukee. They pay for the brand name. I price on Amazon. Per ounce and the prices change probably daily.

>>76505312
>bulletproof

>>76505207 (OP)
90% of my whey intake now is in oats. Dont really drink shakes anymore.

>>76505207 (OP)
add some real ingredients in there? many recipes to make shakes taste good

>>76505207 (OP)
i try to get my protons mainly from food but when i do use whey this is my goto:

>unflavored whey, vanilla almond milk (homemade), instant coffee, cocoa powder, banana and blend

taste gud smooth as fook!!

>>76505207 (OP)
Jocko molk tastes good
GOOD

>>76505207 (OP)
banana cream and double chocolate are pretty good

>>76507098
why is protein powder eligible for SNAP?

i'm sippin on the muscltetech nitrotech whey with creatine rn

op get naked whey unflavored it just tastes like watered down milk, or get promix protein it tastes like some kind of hippy shake you'd buy at a farmers market in a college town

>>76509127
Neet gymcels gotta eat

Just don’t care about taste. It goes in one end and out the other.

>>76507098
The fact that ON has scratch verification and anti-tamper seals makes it worth it
So much fake protein on the market lately, even in Pharmacies

>>76505207 (OP)
haha saying a protein shake tastes gross is low t

>>76509359
I went for ON because of that, and because in my country many other Whey brands were caught changing the % of protein in their products by the national nutrition product association

>>76507098
Sams Club just recently started stocking ON actually.

>>76505207 (OP)
Let me guess, you need “more”?

>>76505207 (OP)
>eating food based on flavor
just say you're fat

mix it with milk
get 1 flavoured and 1 unflavoured and do half of each so it doesnt taste like you're just drinking sugar/sweetner

>>76505207 (OP)
Get high quality whey you dumb nigger.

>>76509473
Good comment.

>>76505207 (OP)
You aren't using two scoops?!

>>76505207 (OP)
It sucks but at this point just buy premade shakes like these and chug them or pour them on oatmeal

>>76509758
Honestly I just calculated it and it's not that bad Protein/$, almost equal to ON
>premade
idk about that brand but the ones from milk companies usally aren't "premade" it's ultra-filtered milk.
Basically they seperate the constituents of the milk then remix it in the ratio they want.

How much protein you get per ml depends more on how expensive your machine is than anything else.

>>76507098
Oh hey look, it's this bot again.

>>76505207 (OP)
use milk instead of water

I purchased my first box of why from Amazon (ON double chocolate). Now it's almost empty. Which brand would you recommend?
I purchased ON because it had tons of reviews but it's so fucking expensive, ~35€ for 2lbs.
I will only drink one of those tastes: chocolate, lemon/lime, cherry, coffee.

>>76510440
>why
whey*

>>76510440
What exactly are you looking for? Do you want a recommendation for a cheaper brand or you just want to know what we use?

>>76506983
>I tried having whey with yogurt but it never works.
wtf are you doing? just mix it with greek yogurt until it's smooth and it turns into pudding. you literally cannot fuck it up.

>>76505207 (OP)
just drink it br0. its takes 10 seconds.

>>76510584
Doesn't mix well tried it for months I just cba after a point, not op tho

>>76510635
you just mix for like 30 seconds. why type of protein are you using? if it's casein it'll clag up.

>>76510655
>>76510635
Same same
No matter how I mix it always clumps up, then I go to eat it and find myself biting into balls of whey

>>76510665
unless you're using a retarded amount of powder it should mix smooth in like 30 seconds. check what type of powder you have. if there's a lot of casein in it it will absorb heaps of fluid and clump. pure whey will mix smooth.

>>76510655
Just normal whey protein

>>76510567
>Do you want a recommendation for a cheaper brand or you just want to know what we use?
Both, if you please.

>>76511032
This is what I use. It's $44 USD. I'm not sure what that is in euros. It's a mixture of whey and casein protein.

>>76506628
>>76510378
This, probably the worst meme I ever fell for on this board. Even nonfat milk which has good protein macros and really not a lot of calories makes it taste 1000x better

>>76511049
>A beverage with twice as much sugar as protein has "good protein macros"
Kek

>>76511046
It's ~38€.
>mixture of whey and casein protein
What benefits are there to this mix?

>>76511290
It's a combination of fast and slow digesting proteins and it tastes really good and it's very thick.

>>76505207 (OP)
put it in hot coffee nigga at roughly a ratio of one scoop to eight ounces

/thread

>>76510875
then you just need to mix until it's combined. takes 30 seconds at the most.

>>76505207 (OP)
Close your nose and put more water than recommended

>>76513178
>close your nose

>>76513215
It doesn't help with texture, but I watched a show called Brain Games as a kid that told me 90% of taste is smell
I've used that trick when I've had to eat something gross ever since

>>76513429

I throw a thick, gooey, unflavored 25g of protein shake down my throat 4 times a day without any emotion or revulsion over 2 years, >>76509473 this is the spirit.
