Great taste, filling (too much can make me feel a bit sick), and thickens up smoothies
Positives:Pleasant flavourNot too sweet for meVery filling - can also be a negativeThickens quite a lot - again, can be a negativeDissolves easilyComplete amino acid profileConvenient protein boostNegatives:Heavily processed, as are all protein powdersIt's not clear how much of and which ingredients are sproutedAdded sweeteners - might be too sweet for some, better leave these outVery filling, almost to the point of being sickly, cannot use anywhere close to recommended amountTaste might also be slightly overbearing if using recommended 30 gThis arrived sealed in plastic, with a foil seal under the lid. It's BB date was nearly 2 years away.In smallish doses, I like the Cookie Dough.. It's slightly chocolatey (contains cocoa powder), like choc chip cookie dough, and smells and tastes nicely of dough. The portion sizes are a bit confusing, as the packet recommends 30 g per portion, but the scoop is 60 ml - which might well be 30 g, as the powder is very light.Either way, I do not (and cannot) add nearly this much to one portion, or it would make me feel sick. Not so much the taste, but it's very filling. I don't find it too sweet, but if you don't add sweetener to things like smoothies, you might find it a bit sweet. I think they should've left the sweeteners out, but it adds convenience, if you like it. I add about 2 - 4 tsp to a smoothie, made of 1 1/2 cups of milk, with an avocado, a banana, vanilla extract and tiny pinch of salt. So maybe 2 US cups total, or just under 500 ml, for which 2 - 4 tsp is more than enough, both flavour-wise, and because so filling. I still add sweetener: 2 tsp of yacon syrup and 1 tsp of date syrup, but have quite a sweet tooth.Also, I add this to overnight oats, a portion has about 1 1/2 US cups, or 350 - 400 ml, total volume, and I add a bit more than to smoothies. With oats, it doesn't seem to make so much difference to how full I feel. Maybe it's also because avocado is fatty, maybe it's also the fat - protein combo of this particular recipe.It is very thickening, which I quite like with smoothies, makes them into a full meal with ease. It dissolves easily into liquid, without clumping, either stirred or using a blender stick.I would definitely buy this protein powder again, and I would likely also buy this flavour again, but I think I might go for Neutral next time - cookie dough was the cheapest to try it out.I like that they make this from sprouted seeds, but am a bit sceptical - from how the ingredients are declared, it's impossible to tell which ingredients, and in what proportion, were sprouted. For example, the title says: "from soy, sprouted rice, peas" etc. Does that mean only the rice was sprouted? Sounds like the soy wasn't, and that's the main ingredient, also has a lot of so-called "anti-nutrients" - which is a controversial topic, though...It's also worth noting that the picture of ingredients is for Chocolate flavour, not Cookie Dough, and they vary, so they should show the correct flavour, not just any one.While it's preferable to get protein from unprocessed food sources, this is a good vegan option to boost protein intake, and it's defo easy and convenient.

Excellent product
I know reviews are individual and some may not agree, but for me this is the best vegan protein I’ve ever had by a mile.Reasons:1. The texture is great. It’s not grainy at all, really smooth and easily drinkable alone. I’ve also found it improves the consistency of my protein smoothies. The first protein for this price that I’ve found to have this quality.2. It mixes into things really well - I made protein pancakes today as I usually do at the weekend and these ones are noticeably fluffier and don’t taste as articifial. As mentioned before, also makes for a silky smoothie.3. The taste is incredible - I got the cookie dough flavour and I could smell it as soon as I opened it, and the taste was just as good. It actually does resemble cookie dough, and I’m not overwhelmed by that stevie sweetener taste, which I’m usually sensitive to. Perfect sweetness imo.4. Decent price. I know of only one other vegan protein brand that have a good product, but it is £10 pricier.Really surprised to find this gem on Amazon after years of dragging myself through bags of horrible vegan protein from “reputable” companies! Definitely converted for the foreseeable.

Tasty
Really tasty. Great for adding that extra protein to my diet! It can be lumpy so you have to really mix it in for a long time to get the lumps out. But that’s just minor, it tastes good & lasts a while.

Great powder
I’ve recently been increasing my protein intake as part of my weight loss journey to help me stay full for longer and to try and improve my metabolism. I’m lactose intolerant and also suffer with acne, so any whey protein powder, protein supplements, protein puddings/bars/yoghurts that contain whey wreak absolute havoc on my skin and my stomach - I gave this vegan protein powder a try (cookie dough flavour) and it’s brilliant. Personally I mix it with oat milk, rather than water and have it for breakfast and it keeps me full and stops me from snacking for a good couple of hours.The tub is huge and a great value for money, the taste is lovely (it’s sweeter than I expected it to be, but that’s not a bad thing for me) and it thickens slightly after being added to oat milk which is ideal for me.Really impressed with it and will be trying other flavours in the future (:

Good but too expensive
This is my favourite protein powder it doesn’t clump you and it’s not too sweet, I need to get a new one every 3 weeks however I’m now looking at alternatives because they’ve raised the price again, now it is so far out of my budget it’s ridiculous. I’d only buy this on offer
