Unsweetened whey

[Chris]

Hey all... Have any of you tried plain, unsweet whey?

I personally hate the flavor of artificial sweetener. I'd rather it just not be sweet. I was thinking I'd pick up some plain, unsweet, natural whey powder to try. I usually make my shakes with fruit and yogurt anyway, so I could easily sweeten it myself.

Anyway, my problem is that most of the unsweet products I've found are marketed as "natural supplements" and have a higher price tag. That bugs me... Shouldn't I be able to get the powder cheaper if I don't want the extra crap in it? Oh well...
I thought I'd run it by you guys to see if anyone can recommend a brand. If I'm gonna pay extra I don't want it to be undrinkable.

Thanks.

I ended up finding a deal on Amazon for this optimum nutrition natural whey powder. I ordered chocolate and vanilla natural whey and they aren't too bad. This powder is sweetened with fructose rather than sucralose or aspartame and is still only 5 carbs per serving. The flavor isn't outstanding, it doesn't taste bad, it just doesn't really have much taste at all. This is good! I can finally drink my whey without the cloying aftertaste of artificial sweeteners. For what it's worth, I thought I'd just pass this along.

Cheers!

Hey Chris,
I think I saw whey powder in the bulk secton of our healthfood store. I t was with the flour and stuff like that. If yours doesn't have it, they may be able to order it for you.
