Any good vanilla protein drinks?
This is probably whining, but is there, anywhere!!! a vanilla protein drink that doesn't taste like poo? At least to me anyway... I have tried everything from generic to Atkins to Unjury and everything in between... and I can't find a vanilla I can stomach without wanting to retch.
I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but I've found the vanillas are more often a) available, and b) on sale than the chocolate (which I like most of but occasionally get sick of).
Some of the fruity kinds are OK, but I am allergic to strawberries and some other fruit-type things, so I don't go fruity too often.

I think just plain vanilla flavoring in powder has a weird aftertaste - protein or not. You could try adding a shot of vanilla sf syrup?
i tried mixing vanilla powder with the orange sunrise crystal light - tasted exactly like a creamsicle.

I like both the About Time Birthday Cake (very sweet vanilla, much like a birthday cake), and the Body Fortress vanilla (pretty standard). Of course, I don't drink ANYTHING as it comes out of the canister. Everything has SF syrups/crystal light/spices added to it, which makes a big difference.

The only vanilla I liked plain (and I am NOT one who was ever willing to spend a bunch of time mixing up a protein shake concoction with 6 diffrerent things added to it) is the Syntrax brand Vanilla Bean Torte. You can get a sample from www.vitalady.com
