Has no taste (which is great), blends fairly smoothly, and is totally natural with no additives
I was very pleased to see a high quality, grass-fed, non-GMO protein powder with no flavor. My family likes to mix our protein powder with all sorts of things (fruit, cinnamon, ground flax seeds, etc., and prefer to taste those ingredients vs. artificially flavored elements of protein powder). The protein grams/serving is pretty average (16G/3 TBLSPN).<br /><br />Upon opening the package, I noticed there was no smell at all. That boded well for the powder having no taste. That was true – there was no taste at all. I blended this with half a banana, coconut milk, blueberries, and flax seeds.<br /><br />It blended pretty well – there was no powder left on the sides of the nutribullet blending cup. The top of the smoothie was pretty ‘frothy’ – it happened two out of four times I used the powder. Not sure if it’s because of the powder, but can’t think of what else it could be because everything else is my standard ingredients for every single smoothie I make.<br /><br />As for the texture, the powder seemed to be slightly gritty in the smoothie. It wasn’t enough to make me not want to drink it, or to not buy it again, but I’ve had powders that blend completely – to the point where you wouldn’t know they were there at all. The second time I made a smoothie with the Wild Whey, I blended it for about 30 seconds longer than I usually would, just to make sure it fully blended the powder. It didn’t seem to make a difference.<br /><br />So the bottom line – 4 stars because the protein grams/serving are slightly low, and the texture was a bit more gritty than I really like.<br /><br />However, it is rare to find a high quality, truly grass-fed, non-GMO protein powder. When you look at the ingredients in most protein powders on the market they are full of additives and artificial ingredients. So kudos to Wild Whey for making a totally natural product that tastes good and is good for the body.<br /><br />* I received the protein powder for evaluation and review
