Farmer Pete's Pea Protein Powder 1kg - Dairy Free, Gluten-Free, Natural Plant Based Vegan Protein Powder Isolate (1kg)

The flavour is probably on the high end of the pea protein varieties we have tried. It's clearly a good quality product. Comes with a useful measuring scoop. It mixes best when shaken, although this does create some foam that takes about 2mins to reduce.We take it within 30min of waking with a scoop of AG1, per the Slow Carb Diet / Four Hour Body by Tim Ferriss. The correct measure for this is 2 scoops + 1 tbsp to grant 30g of protein. Fills you up quickly and gives you a good boost for the start of the day.Great option for vegans.

My usual pea protein is no longer available on Amazon, and I searched high and low for a replacement. When I'm looking for protein, there are a few things I primarily look for:- Protein concentration, per serving (the higher, the better)- Calories per serving (the lower, the better)- Carbohydrates, fats, sodium and sugars per serving (the lower, the better)- Other ingredients (the less, the better)- Dollar (or pound) per 1kg (lower is, of course better)- The source of the protein and where it is packaged (I don't want anything from China)- The amino acid chain (All 9 essential amino acids are a MUST)And secondarily, the taste and how well it mixes.This protein is not only great value, at its price, but it ticks every single requirement for me, with one caveat. The only ingredient is peas (from the taste, it's mostly chickpea). There are no additives. No added sugar or sweeteners (which is a preference thing). Very low in carbs, sodium and bad fats (the kind that raises your bad cholesterol).At 17 grams per serving, you get 14 grams of protein, which isn't bad, at all. It means, two servings (totalling 34 grams) gets you 28 grams of protein, with 134 calories. Now, this is the biggest con for me - compared to a lot of other proteins out there (vegan and non-vegan), 134 calories per 28 gram serving isn't good, at all. There are worse out there, but there's also better. That said, we can't have it all. It just means that, if you're very weight-conscious, you might have to cut back in calories a tad, from other foods/drinks. At its price, it's probably the cheapest amongst the competition, even cheaper than another brand I love, that I can no longer find on Amazon. The other brand (I won't say its name) is actually more expensive, but is only 120 calories per serving - everything else between the two are comparable.As for the taste - that's purely a preference thick. If you're coming from thick, creamy whey proteins with added sweeteners and an array of flavours, this will probably turn you off. If you're accustomed to more bland proteins or vegan proteins, this will fit right in. Personally, I love the taste and with a few dashes of nutmeg, cinnamon and a banana or two, this becomes a very delicious smoothy. Feel free to add whatever you like (strawberries, raspberries, etc.). Some low calorie peanut butter powder will do wonders for this too.Overall, I give this protein 5 stars and this will now be my go-to for vegan protein supplementation.

My usual brand of pea protein wasn't available at a price I was willing to pay. I tried this brand as I thought it seemed more reasonable, and was very happy with my purchase. I actually looked up the 'Farmer Pete's' brand to see if they had a website, or any other products, but I can't seem to find anything else with that branding. It's a shame because I thought it was a good product, at a fair price, with a cute character on it to boot. I would definitely buy this again if I thought the price was reasonable, and I was in need.In terms of flavour, it's standard, unflavoured pea protein. It probably takes a bit of getting used to if you've not had it before, but I find it's quite mild once you're accustomed to it. Personally, I mix it into soups and other cooked foods, where the spices mask most of it (although, realistically, I've been eating pea protein for so long that I don't notice the flavour of it at all). The texture and mixability of Farmer Pete's pea protein was, again, standard. It mixes quite smoothly and isn't lumpy if properly combined. Pea protein is an easily digestible protein for me, particularly in contrast to other options, like whey. Farmer Pete's performs well in this aspect too, and is just as easily digestible as other pea proteins I've had in the past.Shame this doesn't seem to be a 'real' brand. Maybe it's something that's not fully established in the UK yet?

So I've tried most of the best selling pea proteins on Amazon now and I have to say this is by far the best all-rounder. The powder seems to have gone through an extra refinement process or two compared to others on the market as it possesses a super smooth and light texture which mixes brilliantly. The taste is slightly sweet, which I like, despite them claiming no sweetener has been added. To top it off, the 1kg bag is currently a very reasonable price compared to most brands, so it's very easy to recommend. Will likely purchase another bag soon, assuming the price is right. Consider me impressed!

Good product, no strong taste, easy on the stomach

Been using pea protein powders for a while now due to intolerances and this one is by far my favourite, the taste and the texture is the best for sure. I use it in my porridge and smoothies and it has such a creamy texture, I previously used sevenhills but this one is 10x better in comparison! It doesn’t have that grainy texture and taste. Highly recommended

This a very good protein, however I have a condition which means I lose salt very quickly. This product has ingredients that make me lose way too much fluid which means too much salt is going too. World be very good for someone with high blood pressure

I’ve been having this protein powder for sometime now and I usually add it to my morning cereal or oatmeal. It has a very subtle earthy flavour, which is good, and there’s the obvious benefit of extra protein. I like that it’s vegan and a single pack can last you quite a while.Much prefer it to other overpriced and sugary brands.
