Highly recommend this organic pea protein! You'll get used to the flavor quickly
An incredible source of all-natural, organic, GMO-free, vegan, unflavored, vegetable (yellow pea) protein with no added ingredients whatsoever (hence the word "solo" on the top of the label). I think "Solo" should be removed from the title because it makes people think that's the name of the company when this product is actually made by Folona, not a company called "Solo." The first few times I used this product I struggled with the flavor, even gagged the first time I drank it, but after a few times using it I quickly got accustomed to the flavor and texture. It will clump and be overly thick unless properly mixed because there are no declumping agents added (only ingredient is the pea protein). I used a milk frother designed for lattes and cappuccinos, though a blender would also work.I appreciate that this protein powder is from peas grown in Canada rather than the United States. 99% of farms in the US use dangerous, non-organic, toxic herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers as well as other nasty chemicals. Only ~1% of farmland is the US is organic, a frighteningly low figure, that can be increased by only buying organic foods — demand increases the availability of organic foods and reduces the area of non-organic farmland.RoundUp (glyphosate) has an insanely long half-life rendering it effectively non-biodegradable and one of the "forever chemicals" to avoid at all costs. Any farmers using non-organic farmland today who want to switch to organic won't be able to effectively do so for years, if ever, because of the glyphosate content, and other chemicals, in the soil. Indoor cultivation and hydroponics are ways US-grown food/plants can avoid the toxic/forever chemicals in the soil. I prefer buying food grown in European countries (glyphosate has been outlawed in most of the EU for years) or Canada where I believe glyphosate is used less frequently and therefore I hope there is much less glyphosate in the soil and thus less in this product.I'm amazed at the amount of protein per serving (30 grams!) for only two scoops of powder. The size of the container is great because it's actually nearly full so very little wasted space which I appreciate. I also like that this product has a significant amount of iron (one serving has 55% of the RDA) which is difficult for me, as a vegetarian, to get enough of in my diet everyday.Compared to the Terrasoul brand organic GMO-free pea protein powder, I strongly prefer this Folona brand powder in terms of price, consistency, and taste. I will definitely buy this product again. I'm very happy to have found a vegan/vegetarian-friendly source of protein. I also love the fact that the amino acid breakdown is listed on the label indicating exactly how much, in grams, there is of every essential and non-essential amino acid. Very helpful for those who track their calories and nutrient intake.

Love it
Works pretty well, switched to pea protein for post workouts while still incorporating protein from red meat in my daily meals, and can say this works pretty well, easy to mix, had no problems with digestion and it's low in sodium. Taste wise it will taste like peas (but that should be obvious), overall I had no problems making fruit smoothies and adding the protein, value wise it's good for what you're getting, it lasted me quite a while.

Perfect for food/shakes, wouldn't recommend for mixing with water.
My go to after trying many brands. Love that it's low in sodium. Not the best for mixing with water or thin juice drinks, but perfect for food, sauces, and shakes.

Pea protein powder
I can taste the peas. If you add fruit and flavoring, it tastes better. It has less salt than other powders and 30 gm of protein. It blends well and was less expensive than others. This is my second day using the product.

It's the best.
I bake with this and put it in my smoothies and there is no bad aftertaste. It dissolves well also. I first tried it while on a FODMAP diet because it is isolate. Now I use it because it is the best. Low sodium and never upsets my stomach. Organic too. You can't loose with this one.

For me a great neutral taste easy to mix versatile and what you can mix it with
I really like this protein powder it's low sodium which is awesome it just makes it more healthy and easier to choose how much sodium intake we're getting throughout the day the neutral taste which i like some people might find it not as neutral but for me it was a pretty neutral taste mix as well easy to add to others food either just use it with water or mix it with soup the thicken it up

My go to protein powder
The Solo Organic Pea Protein is my go to protein powder for my shakes. I also add a full scoop to my oatmeal for an added boost of protein. It mixes perfectly in my shakes and oatmeal. I love that it is unflavored with no added sweetners. The serving size is 2 scoops to get the 30 grams of protein.
