Octopussoir Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 is nasty!I traded some Vega chocolate for this so I could get the Vega name moved around here in the South. The person didnt like Nitro Fusion and I had let that person try Vega before and they liked it. Im so nice... Its Gawd awful, but it only has 9g carbs per 25g protein so a better match for me going into a show. http://www.veganbodybuilding.com/phpBB2/download/file.php?id=348 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djshrew Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 agreed, it is pretty nasty. The improved flavor was a big help though. And if you have it really really cold (with ice) it's not so bad actually. What flavor did you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen_Horse Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Hmm I loved NitroFusion compared to TrueProteins Gemma... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcina Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 What is Nitrofusion anyways? Rice? Pea? Hemp? Soy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Nearing Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 What is Nitrofusion anyways? Rice? Pea? Hemp? Soy? Pea, Rice and Artichoke. Personally, I love the Tropical flavour. I hear the vanilla and the mocha with energy are god awful though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I really liked the chocolate before the flavor was "improved." Now it somehow tastes both more chocolatey and more horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djshrew Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I really liked the chocolate before the flavor was "improved." Now it somehow tastes both more chocolatey and more horrible. Really?!?! I thought the old chocolate flavor had this weird gas like after taste, but thats just me. That flavor made me gag, just like some pea proteins.

Ken Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 I guess it all comes down to personal preference. I'll admit the old flavor had an unusual taste, but for me it was much more tolerable. Maybe the new one will grow on me, but I wasn't happy the first few times I had it. I'll give it another shot tonight after my workout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octopussoir Posted July 16, 2009 Author Share Posted July 16, 2009 (edited) Its actually the sickest shit I have ever had, yet I just bought some again. Can anyone say cheap. Bodybuilding.com had a sick sale on it, and I am poor. but yeah I cant take it straight, need to mix with a nanner or some kinda smoothy I think I found a new protein thats even cheaper and supposedly tastes great. Its a pea protein by Olympian Labs 105cals0g fat1g carbs25g protein GREAT PROFILE FOR COMPETITIONBB.com has it for only 19.99 Origin & History: Pea Protein is a natural, vegetable-based protein powder derived from yellow peas (Pisum sativum). Yellow peas are more commonly known as "split peas" and are used extensively in food preparation such as in soups & purees. Most commercially available protein powders are derived from soy, rice, eggs, or dairy, which are often problematic for those with allergic dietary concerns. We’ve chosen Pea Protein because it is a plant-based, hypoallergenic protein that yields a high biological value (65.4%). The BV is an accurate indicator of the biological activity of protein. It measures the actual amount of protein deposited per gram of protein absorbed. High BV proteins are a better choice for increased nitrogen retention, enhanced immunity and IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor stimulation). They are superior for reducing lean tissue loss from various wasting states than proteins with a low BV score. Through a clever extraction and purifi cation process, our Pea Protein is concentrated from the normal level of 6% in fresh peas to 90% protein content. This unique process produces a protein powder that is highly soluble and easy to digest. Pea Protein is ideal for vegans, offers an excellent nutritional profile, is free of gluten, lactose, cholesterol and other anti-nutritional factors. Benefits of Pea Protein Non-GMO Hypoallergenic 100% Gluten Free Perfect for Vegans 100% Cholesterol Free 100% Plant-Based Protein Highly Soluble & Easy to Digest Source of Beneficial Amino Acids Environmentally Friendly Source of Protein Highly Suitable for Sustainable Agriculture Edited July 16, 2009 by Octopussoir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zinzen Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 It was 19 when I grabbed it. I dont go for the incomplete proteins like just hemp or just pea, I understand the reason why most dont care, and I am in no way trying to argue, especially with a big ass mofo like you octo, just not my dig, you know. But man this shit is a great big slice of sick as all hell.I was taking choco soy powder from GNC, but they jacked the price to much, tasty shit though.For some reason Vega has the same nasty ass taste as nitro to me, I really do need a soluble protein so I can just slam it alone again.

SeaSiren Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I have a ton of it..... hush up and get it down you whiny butt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octopussoir Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 ha ha ha. The Olympian Labs isnt bad. I like it, but it tastes like I just blended some peas up and then put it into a shaker. Better than Nitro-Fusion in my opinion. Vega(berry and vanilla chai) tastes good. Cant take the natural though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
