Vega One All-In-One Nutritional Shake Vanilla Chai (10 Servings) - Plant Based Vegan Protein Powder, Non Dairy, Gluten Free, Non GMO, 15.4 Ounce (Pack of 1)

The 2018 Clean Label Project just found THIS LINE to be the DIRTIEST protein sources re: contaminates such as lead & pesticides. I spent so much time researching healthy alternatives to dairy & although this tastes good and mixes well, what’s the point if you’re ingesting known carcinogens?! Back it goes!

I see a few recent reviews that say the product has been changed recently. That's my only guess for how it had a high rating when I bought it. Terrible taste (vaguely sickly sweet flavor which was neither vanilla nor chai) and incredibly gritty--like sand was in my smoothie.

I love Vega one for myself, because it tastes great and adds a huge boost to my regular smoothies, but I love it EVEN MORE for my boyfriend, who struggles to eat enough greens/get enough nutrition. One scoop of this basically makes his day nutritionally (IT HAS SIX SERVINGS OF GREENS!), and its super easy. That's kind of all I could ask for.I purchased the vanilla chai flavor of the new vega one, and I really enjoyed it. This version seems to have significantly less stevia than the old vega one formula, thus making it infinitely more palatable. I tossed a scoop in with a cup of almond milk and 1/2 a frozen banana and the powder dissolved easily in my blender and was super creamy, smooth, and just a little spicy from the chai flavorings. YUM.Another thing: vega one can't be beat when traveling. Whenever I go ANYWHERE I am soothed by bringing a 1/2 tub in my suitcase. I have avoided many potentially vegetable-less days by prepping with vega!Highly recommended.

I read all the great reviews and decided to try the vanilla chai. It was not very good at all, in fact it had a barely there, but odd flavor. I tried it with water and it was undrinkable. With milk it was tolerable, but it settled a lot so it was pretty gritty at the end of the glass. I ended up purchasing a chai tea concentrate to mix in with the milk and this powder, to give it some flavor just so it wouldn't go to waste. I'm willing to give a different flavor a try, but I would definitely stay away from the vanilla chai.

Cheaper on amazon than at Whole Foods which is always nice if you are a prime member. Tastes GREAT, blends nicely, and it's all natural plant based protein as nature intended (for primates anyway ;). I would imagine this stuff is also not as hard on the kidneys as that chemical manufactured/altered stuff you buy at GNC. I usually mix mine with frozen fruit, leafy veges, almond milk, filtered water and egg beaters....the taste of this particular smoothie is out of this world!! No need to thank me...:)

I really like the nutritional benefits of this power, but the added stevia ruins it for me. I cannot get past that artificial sweetener taste, even if it is from a natural source. Why add a sweetener at all. It would be better to allow the consumer the option of adding their own sweetener if desired.I've read other reviews saying basically the same thing. I hope the company takes this into consideration and at least offers unsweetened powders in the near future. I will be contacting them.

I don't really like the chai flavored one. It taste pretty strange to me. I usually love chai tea flavored things but this just didn't make right with me. The ingredients seem great though, but I have to dock two stars since I just don't like the flavor. It has that hint of spice but that other flavor I just can't describe it. Maybe like bubble gum or something.

On the upside this product is all that I was looking for in a nutritional shake - high protein, vegan and gluten free. On the downside, the taste is absolutely revolting. So much so, that it's a deal breaker for me. As far as I'm concerned this shake is basically inedible, which entirely negates any nutritional advantages to the taste if I can't even get it down. I didn't have unrealistic expectations...I realize that a shake like this will be a far cry from a vanilla milkshake, and I was prepared to have to gulp it down rather than sip it and enjoy it. But I can't even do that. Do yourself a favor and try something else.
