vanilla bean Orgain plant based protein shake

4/13 Edited to

... Read moreOkay, so if you're anything like me, finding the perfect plant-based protein shake can feel like a quest! I've been on the hunt for a while, and two names always pop up: Orgain and OWYN. My recent experience with the vanilla bean Orgain shake really got me thinking, and honestly, I'm ready to share why it's become my go-to, even surpassing OWYN for me. First off, let's talk taste, because that's usually the make-or-break for any protein shake. I tried the Orgain vanilla bean, and I was genuinely impressed. The packaging even highlights it as truly 'vanilla-flavored,' and it absolutely delivers. What stood out to me was the pleasant 'plant milk and slight sweetness' profile. It didn't taste artificial or overly chalky, which is a common issue with many plant proteins. I'd personally rate it around a 7/10 for taste, which aligns pretty well with the 6.9/10 mentioned in the packaging details I saw. It's smooth, and it actually feels like a treat rather than just a chore to get my protein in. Now, comparing it to OWYN's vanilla flavor, which I've also had quite a few times. OWYN is good, don't get me wrong. It's got a decent vanilla flavor, and it's also very smooth. However, for me, Orgain's vanilla had a slightly more natural, comforting sweetness that just edged out OWYN. OWYN sometimes has a slightly more pronounced 'plant' aftertaste for me, whereas Orgain felt a bit more balanced. Beyond taste, 'organic nutrition' is a huge factor for me, and Orgain really shines here. The fact that their products are often certified organic gives me extra peace of mind about what I'm putting into my body. While OWYN also focuses on clean ingredients, the 'organic nutrition' aspect of Orgain is a definite plus. I'm looking for an 'all-in' shake that supports my overall health, not just my protein intake, and Orgain feels like it ticks more of those boxes with its comprehensive ingredient list. Let's quickly touch on texture and mixability. Both brands generally perform well here, providing a relatively smooth shake with no clumping. I usually mix mine with water or unsweetened almond milk, and both Orgain and OWYN blend easily in a shaker bottle. No complaints on that front for either! Ultimately, when I weigh everything – the delicious 'vanilla-flavored' taste with its 'plant milk and slight sweetness,' the commitment to 'organic nutrition,' and the overall feeling of being an 'all-in' healthy choice – the Orgain vanilla bean plant-based protein shake has won me over. While OWYN remains a strong contender, for my personal preference and daily routine, Orgain has become the clear favorite. If you're debating between the two, especially the vanilla flavors, I highly recommend giving Orgain a try. You might just find your new favorite too!

THICK girl shake (42g protein) 🥤🍑✨
Protein, as we all know by now, is so important! Getting enough protein per day to try and grow your muscles can be a challenge though. A good rule of thumb is to consume .5-.8g of protein per pound. So if you weighed 150 lbs it would be good to set the goal of consuming at least 75-120g of protein
