Whether you're picking it up for yourself or a loved one, this product is highly recommended for those who value taste as much as nutrition!

It is chalking than the regular Vega but I have found if I make it up in advance or add avacodo to it, it's more smooth. A little sweeter than I'd like but I don't do sweets. Great overall product that I have been using for years.

I've been using Vega Essential Protein every day, and it's become a regular part of my morning smoothie. The taste is really good for a vegan protein powder—not overly sweet or artificial. It blends smoothly with no clumps, whether I mix it with fruit, milk, or just water. I also think it's a great value for the money considering the amount of protein you get per serving. If you're looking for a plant-based protein that tastes good, mixes well, and fits easily into a daily routine, this is a solid choice.

I like this kind less than Orgain. It’s a bit milk-chocolaty tasting as opposed to dark chocolate tasting. It blends pretty well- no clumps - and dissolves fully. The taste is a bit flat though.

This stuff is so so good and doesn’t bloat me like the others ! Chocolate is yummy , I’ll be trying the other flavors soon and I’ll update .

This is very chalky tasting and it feels the same when swallowing. You can feel the grit going down the throat. I bought the chocolate flavored and it is only passable. I wouldn't buy this again. I have had 3 servings and I am having a hard time swallowing it. It should be fine cooking with it though. I haven't tried Vegan protein powder before, so maybe that is how they all are. What a waste of money for a protein drink.

I love this product! I’ve bought it like 5 times already, the flavor is good, it’s not too thick or heavy on the stomach. I don’t drink or consume any dairy due to allergies and this has been a great option to avoid other dairy proteins to reach my diet goals

I love this stuff! I have tried all the other pea protein chocolate shakes and this one is so good I drink it because it's yummy and the side benefit is it is extremely healthy for you with very few ingredients. Some reviewers say they are scared of it because it has a static like affect on utensils, but many of these powders do that and I think it is because of how fine the powder is. It is like smooth soft talcum powder. I jave been dri king it over 2 years now and love it. My brain fires up when on this. I add it to decaf coffee sometimes for a natural wake-up with no caffeine just healthy protein. The MCTs in this are what I believe make it so awakening for the brain.

Muuuuy rica la proteina, con platano y cacao nibs queda deliciosa. No cae nada pesada. Cremosa, y ligera.

Unusually bad taste, and low amount of protein per calories ratio
