Anyone have any input about the quality here? They have a beastly awesome "Make-Your-Own" protein thing.
Of course they brag about being high quality, but that doesn't mean much of anything coming from them.
I looked around their site, Googled a little, and searched the forums (not exhaustively, but I tried).
Anyone have first hand experience, or links to studies/review about their quality?
Thanks!

Trunutrition is a pretty highly respected company around here. Trutein is always in the top recommended protein blends as well as one of the only ones that actually disclose the blend ratios. It's quickly become my staple protein.

I personally like Trutein. Why not order the samples from them and give them a try before ordering 5lb? The Cinnamon and Vanilla flavors are by far my favorite. Also, being in Florida if you order from BB.com it arrives quickly being they have a warehouse here.
Good luck.

I'm on my 2nd 5lb jug of Trutein. I've tried Cinnabun and Vanilla. Personally I'm a fan. I find the taste to be great, slightly on the sweet side so if you're baking or making something that also asks for sugar alternative, you might consider omitting or significantly reducing it. It tastes better with water than some other proteins (Myofusion / ON) I've tried and is slightly thicker in my opinion. I do like the fact it's a blend and the calorie count is kept low.

Yes, Trutein is one of the best brands out there.

Thanks for the responses everyone, but I wonder if you're confusing TruNutrition with truenutrition.
This website has an "e" in the word "true" and it's not listed on TruNutrition's retailers.

Sorry, after I'd posted I went to check out the website and realized it was different than the product I was referring too.

i just ordered some protein from there.
Lyle McDonald likes them as a company.
the custom mixes (while pretty much totally unnecessary) are cool.
i chose to 'heavily sweeten' mine, and it lead to noticeably tasting the artificial sweetener.
i may order again without the heavy sweetening, or if i do get more protein i may play it safe with something i know tastes good.

cookies and cream, vanilla, and pb & j (yes, im an ass for buying 3 flavors w/o knowing if the taste would be good)...they all have a chemically/artificially sweetened taste to them...honestly the taste is about a 5/10. Everything else is good, but im actually eating it right now and idk if i'll make it through all i bought. like i said, maybe it would taste different if you get it lightly sweetened, but idk for sure.
