Award Winning Vegan Pea Protein Powder - Organic & Pure - Canadian Peas - No Soy, No Gluten - 1kg Pouch - Keto & Paleo Friendly by NutriZingSoil AssociationSoil AssociationSoil Association

Fairly neutral flavour, it needs plenty of plant milk. it will last a while. It comes with its own scoop.

First pea protein I am trying and cant compare it to anything else but it appears to tick many boxes for me

Purchased this product as an organic, vegan, additive-free protein powder with a better lysine-arginine ratio than hemp, my preferred protein. Arginine is great for some things but if the ratio is too high, it might aggravate autoimmune reactions, especially people who suffer from herpes/cold sores.TASTE: There are some poor reviews based on taste. This is unfair because in general, pea protein is not the best tasting protein out there. Which is why other providers try to mask it with a ton of stevia or nasty artificial flavourings. Protein powders are the building blocks os muscles, they are not supposed to taste like milkshakes. I don’t like the taste of pea protein but one can best neutralise the flavour in smoothies with cacao and nut butters.MEASUREMENT: The instructions could be more precise since no scoop is provided. A heaped dessert spoon is just too vague. Basic arithmetic and a weighing scale tells me one level tablespoon yields roughly 6g of protein.Overall, I’m happy with this product. It’s additive-free, sourced from Canadian peas AND it’s very good value (at GBP 16/kg) compared to other premium proteins. I’m happy to keep it as one of my main protein powders and my only pea protein source.

I’ve almost exhausted my second pack of this product and feel able to respond to the main criticisms: It tastes bad and clumps; raw spirulina is way worse (it stained my smoothie bottles, in addition to tasting awful), yet lots of people are happy to consume it for their health. However, I would never use this particular product on its own – I add organic juices and filtered water (with the pea protein, raw cacao powder, etc. ‘sandwiched’ between them as a middle layer). I’ve found that then (carefully) turning the smoothie bottle upside down and giving it a quick shake begins to mix the ingredients, in particular preventing any of them from aggregating at the bottom. I usually set up two lots in one go, pouring the contents alternately several times between a pair of separate smoothie bottles, and occasionally shaking. By the end, I have two smoothies with a nice consistency, each topped off with Kombucha, which I sip throughout the day. Raw cacao powder is the bare minimum I would add to this when making smoothies, since it results in a very palatable drink.Legal seals – I think the seller has answered that in the questions section, but maybe just the source.Additional – I usually throw the plastic scoop away because it’s difficult to negotiate between the sides of the pack and into the bottles without spilling any. A lip might help, but I’d still use a spoon.

This protein powder is just okay, which considering it's apparently won awards, was a little surprising. It's not quite as refined as some of its competitors, although it's better than many in this regard. The taste is as you'd expect, pretty bland, although of course you can add your own ingredients like fruit or cocoa to make it more appetizing. At £20.00 per kilo, the price is very fair in October 2024 but nevertheless it falls short in all of these areas compared to its competition. In particular, Farmer Pete's protein, which I have recently begun buying this week, soundly beats this item on consistency, taste and value for money. On this basis, I can't in good faith really recommend this product. It's worth pointing out that I have no affiliation with the above company, I am just a fan of their 1Kg unflavoured pea protein, which is comfortably the best vegan protein powder I've tried up to this point. To summarise, there's nothing outstanding about this powder. It serves its purpose, has a tolerable taste and blends okay but you may wish to shop around if you want the absolute best.

I used to order this a few years ago. I had a packet a bit out of date left in the cupboard and used that, going back a few months. When it finished, I ordered another. My smoothie was so disgusting, I felt sick for the rest of the day. I thought the coconut milk I'd used must have gone off. Being in the middle of a lot of life things, I didn't get around to contacting the company, though the composition was slightly different between the packages (more recent had less sodium, which was good). So, either they have bad batches, or the new recipe is terrible, however, I'm too nervous to try again. I'm not too fussy in general about taste; I don't expect delicious, but I also don't expect nauseating, which this more recent batch really was.......
