Bluebonnet Nutrition Whey Protein Isolate Chocolate Flavor Powder,2lbs | Kosher

I'm a huge fan of this, both the plain and chocolate. I searched for years, trying different brands, that made me either feel bloated, didn't have enough protein, or where the source was something I'm avoiding. This protein power is great -- it mixes smooth, the container is always full, the chocolate taste is perfect (not too strong, not too weak), and it never upsets my stomach. Sometimes I throw in a bit of microground coffee in with this power and some almond milk. It comes out perfect. If this brand ever stops or becomes difficult to get, I'll be super sad.

For me, when it comes to whey supplements, quality is more important than price. I've tried several high-quality brands including: (1) Raw Organic Whey, (2) Opportuniteas Grass-fed Whey Protein Isolate, (3) Antler Farm Whey Isolate, and (4) Naked Whey. Ultimately, I've decided that I will be using two protein products going forward: one chocolate flavored (for quick mix with water after workout) and one unflavored (for smoothies, where I can add my own fruits and flavoring with almond milk, coconut water, etc). As far as chocolate flavored protein powder goes, NOTHING comes close to Bluebonnet. First off, the amino profile looks great (good ratio of BCAA). The protein content ratio is very good (for flavored products 26g of protein in a 33g scoop is perfectly respectable). Low sugar. Ingredient list looks clean - no junk. But where Bluebonnet really shines is the taste and solubility. It doesn't taste chalky (which many other chocolate flavored proteins do). As for my unflavored protein choice, I will not discuss that here as it is not relevant to this product being reviewed. Hint: it's one of the 4 brands listed above.

I’ve been drinking this for years. It tastes good and is much healthier than other brands. It works with water or milk. I use almond milk and add some ice cubes. Delicious! I definitely feel better drinking this stuff.

I have been lactose intolerant sine my mid 20's, I am 45 and have been taking plant protein powders forever. I have always heard that whey is superior to plant powders but couldn't take it due to digestive issues. Then I came across info that told me whey isolate usually has most of it's lactose removed naturally from processing. Why have I not heard this before? Anyway, I decided to try some isolates out but would not settle for anything less than grass-fed, non gmo with minimal additives if any at all. I came across this and gave it a try. It has been wonderful, in my opinion it mixes easily, tastes ok, typical whey pro powder taste, and best of all, I can digest it. I have also started taking Iconic Protein Powder and have had the same results with that. I am now on my second order of both of these. I will say at first, and sometime still at random, I notice a little bit of gas which I attribute to these products, but it is minimal and sometimes not present at all. It is so minimal that I really don't even care about it as it is not bothersome, not like drinking a pure glass of milk, If I did that, God help whoever is standing next to me in an elevator an hour later lol...but from what I understand, not all lactose can be removed in the whey isolate creation process so this is understandable. Since beginning taking both of these powders two or three times a day I have started making some gains so I feel great about that, although I have also started taking dextrose powders with these in my protein shakes right after workouts which is supposed to help drive the shake into your muscles better, seems to be working for me. For those interested, right after a workout I take one or two scoops of these powders, about 1/2 serving dextrose, about 30g carbs according to label, (you can also use glucose powders), and some creatine, 3-5 grams, and i really feel it gets in me. Hope this review helps I will def be continuing this product and also Iconic Protein Powder. I will be submitting this same review for the Iconic Protein Powder so if you read them both and it sounds identical that's because it mostly is--cheers.

Not the best tasting protein I've had but in no means a terrible tasting protein. I put it in yogurt and make protein shakes and it tastes fine. I like that it has no extra and unnecessary ingredients so its definitely a good option for the all-natural type of person. Its a large amount of protein and the price is decent for it. I'll continue to buy it and plan on trying the other flavors (strawberry and vanilla). All-in-all a solid product I plan on continuing to use.
