Flavor

Pros:

  • "Chocolate is by fav my favorite, doesn't taste too fake like Strawberry, and doesn't taste as chalky like some of the vanilla ones."
  • "This protein powder is the best tasting stuff I’ve found so far. It literally tastes just like chocolate milk and doesn’t have that weird protein after taste."
  • "This chocolate flavor actually tastes like chocolate."
  • "The creamy chocolate fudge flavor is delicious, making it a satisfying treat when mixed with water or plant-based milk."
  • "The chocolate flavor is great! I just ordered the chocolate protein with superfoods."
  • "Good choc flavor."
  • "The Creamy Chocolate Fudge flavor is just plain awesome - not too sweet and not overly flavored."

Cons:

  • "I will never buy this again and will not recommend it to those who care about the chocolaty taste or the creamy texture."
  • "The flavor is rather bland in my opinion and the powder doesn't dissolve well."
  • "It has got to be the single most disgusting chocolate protein powder I have ever tasted."
  • "Wow, this protein powder is SO sweet I couldn't drink it!"
  • "Purchased this and bam it has that fake sugar taste to me now."
  • "The taste for me was horribly sweet and I dont know if this is what made me sick."
  • "The taste and smell of this protein powder are foul compared to the whey protein I was previously using."

Texture and Mixability

Pros:

  • "I love everything about this product from the flavor to the blendability."
  • "It blends well, leaving no clumps and resulting in a smooth and velvety texture."
  • "It mixes smoothly with any type of milk."
  • "It blends smoothly and makes for thick, delicious shakes."
  • "I use a blender bottle with milk - it mixes well and no chunks are left."
  • "It blends well either by its self or even with other powders and fruit."
  • "It blends really easily in the blender and also when i put a scoop in my yogurt!"

Cons:

  • "BUT, oh sweet Jesus, do not use for protein pancakes. It doesn't go well with oats, they come out so bland."
  • "The powder's consistency can be quite thick when mixed with minimal liquid, so I recommend using a blender or shaker bottle for a smoother texture."
  • "First, it does not blend no matter how long you stir it or shake it, so you have to gag down nasty chunks."
  • "It's pretty gritty, and somewhat bland on the tongue."
  • "Unless you stir it for a very long time, it tends to stay clumpy."
  • "It can be a bit clumpy/grainy, so be sure to mix super well if you're drinking it straight vs putting it in a recipe or smoothie."
  • "The powder doesn’t dissolve completely leaving a grainy bad taste in my mouth."

Health and Digestion

Pros:

  • "Orgain Protein Powder is my affordable and reliable pick for organic vegan protein."
  • "0 sugar is very important to me. This product is great."
  • "The 21g of plant-based protein per serving is impressive, providing a substantial boost to my daily protein requirements, especially as a vegan."
  • "It's perfect for most diets as it's dairy free, lactose free, soy free and there's no added sugar."
  • "Love the Orgain chocolate plant-based protein shake with pre- and pro-biotics, presses all the right buttons for me, it's high-quality protein that doesn't trigger my gout or my kidneys."
  • "On the positive side, it didn't make me bloated or give me gas."
  • "The shake settles in my stomach nicely without me feeling bloated."

Cons:

  • "The only down side is that it made my stomach super bloated and gassy."
  • "It did not work for me well because when I took it, it caused bloating, stomach cramps, and diarrhea."
  • "I’ve been having terrible gas and a nasty stomach ache that lasted for over a month."
  • "I felt bloated, burpy and started to get small red bumps on my skin."
  • "I bought this and thought this would be a great way to get more protein. Well, yes, it was. But, little did I know that what I was ingesting ('Erythritol') could cause so many issues."
  • "A sugar replacement called erythritol has been associated with several other severe risks factors, including blood clots and death."
  • "In addition to increasing your risk of heart attack and stroke, erythritol can cause mild to severe digestive issues if you consume large amounts of it."

Packaging and Value

Pros:

  • "I was surprised by the amounts of powder in the container in a good way."
  • "The value of Orgain was literally double for the same cost as the other brand we could only get at Target."
  • "And you can't beat the value for your money."
  • "The Orgain Protein Powder sold by Amazon is a good value for the size."
  • "Highly recommended for its practicality and value."
  • "I have already ordered my 2nd tub."
  • "Love that it has ZERO sugar and ZERO artificial sweeteners, too."

Cons:

  • "However for the price, I wouldn’t say it’s the best simply because the jug I got came half full."
  • "Yes the packing is deceptive. A big fat container filled to the half mark."
  • "I did not love the packaging that Amazon shipped it in the last time I ordered it."
  • "There is so much of orgain that sticks to the side of my mug, or settles to the bottom, that I actually consume very little of it."
  • "Now they've increased the price by $5 the ingredients now are horrible. They don't use stevia anymore they use sugar alcohols which will cause abdominal distress."
  • "Taking off 1 star overall because the container is NOT suited for being shipped in a poly envelope like the shipment I got. The lid cracked and powder spilled out."
  • "I feel lied to… won’t be buying this kind of thing online again. ☹️"
