Does the chocolate flavor taste strongly like vegetables as the unflavored does? I'm trying to find a vegan choc protein powder that tastes good.

I make smoothies with chocolate almond milk and I really love the taste. The best flavor for me is the Cookies n Cream. I do not like the Chocolate Raspberry at all- reminds me of cough medicine. I add fresh spinach so I don't mind the "vegetable" flavor. I bought that 1 pound size so I could test out the flavors. I have also added unsweetened cocoa powder or Chocolate PB2 if I want additional flavors.

I have never picked up on a vegetable taste with this stuff. It is a little chalky, but that comes from it not having all the extra fat in it.

Depends. I have gluten and corn allergies so everything tastes good to me that has flavor at all. My husband and oldest daughter don't like the taste, but my 3 year old likes it and has been drinking the Amazing Kids Chocolate Meal shake since since she was 1. It isn't fine and doesn't dissolve like other meal shakes but I find it addictive (best in a blender). The best way to mix it is with almond milk. Regular milk is too thick and water is too thin. If you are already used to ultra organic and healthy tasting shakes then you will love it. However, if you are used to slim fast or carnation instant breakfast type shakes you probably won't like it. I hope that helps. Depends. I have gluten and corn allergies so everything tastes good to me that has flavor at all.

I tried the Vega One and the Plant Fusion samples last week. However, the Vega One sample was chocolate and this one was vanilla bean. I liked the texture of the Plant Fusion better. The Chocolate Vega was pretty sweet but tasted very rich and chocolatey. I believe is has more carbs/sugar than the plant fusion. Plant fusion had more protein per serving and based on the one by one comparison the plant fusion seemed to keep me fuller longer, but its pretty subjective. I do know that based on the samples I tried I would prefer this product over the Vega One sample based on content, protein, sugar, and taste. But, Vega One was good and I would happily drink it too. I hope this helps!

I am aware of any recipe other than what is on the package. However, I did use substitutes for yogurt, like coconut milk and plain water. I will try using pumpkin, you can't go wrong because the chocolate flavor dominates. The texture may vary but it is still delicious.

I haven't tried the chocolate or vanilla so I don't have those to compare it to, but I really like the way the chai shakes taste! If you have ever had chai tea at dunkin donuts its a similar flavor. I mix it with frozen blueberries, strawberries, spinach, coconut milk and water in the blender and its delicious. JJ Virgin says you're a rock star if you add spinach or kale. I didn't love the kale but its actually really good with the spinach! Give it a try. Hope this helps.

It tastes good-the vanilla is much better than I thought it would be. I like to mix it with half chocolate & add a little powedered peanut butter. But you have to be sure to use some kind of blender- if you just stir or shake it, it's way too gritty in texture.

Both chocolate and vanilla taste great. I generally get vanilla, since the flavor is more versatile. It tastes great mixed with milk and Gatorade (only tried vanilla in Gatorade). I also add to fruit smoothies.

I really don't picture it tasting "right" with chocolate... It is indeed delicious, but to me it's more of a softer taste, like a coffee-flavored tea. Well, wait a minute... Let me make some and see!! Ha... Hmmm... Gee, actually it's pretty good! I added more Dandy Blend than I normally would have to make it stronger. Better than I thought it would be!! I totally love caf mochas, so this is a decent alternative indeed. Not AS good, but yes, you could live with this!! :)

I believe so. The texture and quality is good, however, it does not smell like chocolate. There is a new kind of cocoa being grown in South America and it is so mild it doesn't have the trademark scent.

Hello Yvonne : I had The Vegg analized by the best food lab in my country (Chile) I am no expert but the lab thechnicians tell me it is an excellent source of everything good. I´ll be happy to share their report with you via email. And it is also the best faux egg I have ever seen and tasted.

I am obsessed with the chocolate greens and have been using them for years. I have a few favorites. In my nutribullet I out the greens water and banana with peanut butter. It's quite delicious. If you want it thicker, add more banana or less water. Coconut and almond milk work well also. Another favorite is the greens with pineapple. There is something about the combo that is delicious. Again, add more fruit or less liquid as desired. This only works really well in the nutribullet because it liquifies and pulverizes everything. An "amazing" blend indeed. Enjoy

I guess that would be a matter of personal taste. I'm a chocolate lover, but prefer the vanilla Whey Isolate. It also depends on how you plan to drink it. I make a smoothie; blending 8 oz. natural yogurt, 1 banana (or equivilant amount melon), 2 TBSP peanut butter, 2 TBSP wheat germ, 1 TBSP honey, and 2 scoops Whey Isolate - within 30 minutes of my workout. (I work out 3 days a week.) On off days I blend only the yogurt, wheat germ and 1 scoop Isolate. In an emergency, the vanilla ain't too bad mixed with cold water.

If you mean the plain then yes. All of the flavored Orgains are great even the vegan. I avoid plain in any protein shake as it us just that "plain".

Hi - yes, I can help because I asked that question directly to the company. Orgain changed the formula a little to remove the soy in particular. There was also some organic stevia added at that time. But the change wasn't that well received by some customers. They changed it again to reduce the stevia to almost nothing and improve the consistency back to what it was. I know that Chocolate Fudge flavor with November 2013 and on expiration dates are the improved (like it used to be) formula. I've had it and it's great again. Vitamin Shoppe has some and I'm told it will be back on Amazon very soon. Hope that helps.

I think they both taste good...but I definitely prefer the chocolate. You can never go wrong with chocolate lol!

Yes for sure, this drink has one of the highest protein contents and has super low carbs and only 1 gram of fat. I love the chocolate taste and it fills me and keeps me from bing eating.

the description for dutch chocolate flavor says it contains Bovine Serum Albumin 6-8%- serum is whats left after blood is filtered and allowed to clot. So technically not vegetarian.
