Anyone ever hear of Everlast Vegan Protein? I know.... you're thinking boxing right now... clear your head because we are talking about Everlast VP. Everlast VP is the ultimate plant-based protein mix delivering a complete BCAA profile using the highest grade blend of yellow pea, rice and hemp proteins to promote lean muscle growth and recovery. Everlast VP is lactose, gluten, sugar, hormone, GMO and cholesterol free.
People usually want to know about the ingredients - lucky me, I was able to "cut and paste" those for you -
So now you want to know.....how's it taste? I was honestly surprised - it tastes pretty good! Since I like to compare "apples to apples", I decided I'd make my daily morning protein shake using this product instead of my normal favorite protein mix I've been using since 2008 or so. It always helps me determine if the flavor is what I have come to expect.
Right off the bat, I noticed that this protein seemed a little thicker than the one I use. When I used my heavy duty blender, I noticed this seemed to stick together a little more than I wanted it to. I had to run the blender longer than usual trying to break up the powder into the drink. Once it was blended, though, it wasn't bad at all. It mixed in well with the fruit and vegetables, so I was satisfied. There was no horrible aftertaste like I expected from a vegan protein. Will I be pouring out all of my usual protein drink and replace it with this Everlast VP? Probably not. It was okay, it has a lot of great stuff in it, but it's just not enough for me to make the big switch.
If I was unable to get the protein I usually use, or if they go out of business or something, then I wouldn't be adverse to integrating Everlast VP into my nutrition program. If you are in the market for something new, or you are really interested in Everlast VP, then you should definitely check this product out.
