Revival Soy

[jhhayes]

Has anyone tried the soy protein shake mix that is sweetened with Splenda? If so, which ones and how did you like them? I'm definitely staying away from the low carb bars because they contain sugar alcohols but am thinking about the shakes as an occasional high protein treat...

Hmmm, this might be psychological, but I find soy protein to still somehow have a 'soy' taste that is a bit unpleasant. I have tried a whey protein shake that I found inoffensive.

I think it possible that I burned out on soy, eating so much of it during my vegetarian years. I find the flavor of it offensive.

That being said, from my soy eating memory, I do recall that something less processed like roasted soy beans have a far superior taste to the overly processed soy protein shakes. Even when I was eating/loving everything soy under the sun, I found the shakes to be pretty gross. I'll echo NulloModo and recommend a whey protein shake instead.

Thanks for the feedback guys...

I really like the taste of soy milk and soy bars, for example, but I don't care for soy nuts. I was specifically interested in this particular brand though, because they're based in my town and I'm beginning to hear a lot about them (one of the owners is running for Congress!).

Has anyone had any experience with this particular brand as compared to others? ensive
