@yakkoTDI You win! Good Job! Enjoy your imaginary internet points on a website nobody cares about anymore! A+++ Oh wait, I’m hearing from the judges… yeah, nobody GAF that you firstpost on Meh.
@fondaporn according to Barbazon, there is virtually no nutrition in this stuff other than sodium, a fair amount of iron and protein. 110 calories per peaspoon (scoop).
@commonhero@fondaporn what nutrition is protein powder supposed to have besides protein? you put in a smoothie or something if you want carbs and vitamins and shit
@commonhero@fondaporn@Telanis That’s the thing, a protein powder should be almost entirely protein, but a lot of vegan products bring 10-15g of carbs along for the ride. At least for me, it’s not something i want but something I’ve learned to watch out for.

So it’s not even really good for another 20 months and then you can’t put it in stockings even because people will just think you were cleaning out the pantry… I mean this stuff looses its peak performance right before the Jan 2024 new year exercise resolutions… which also is only at its peak for 2 months. I guess to be fair at this rate I won’t have a need for post workout anything for 2022 and that could easily carry into 2023.
@hockeyham work shortage. I imagine the designers went to earn more and get benefits working fast food and so now the accounting interns are in charge of photoshop.
The only protein (powder) supplement I will use is egg-white based, and it’s kind of hard to find these days. Plant-protein (pea, but especially soy) makes me nauseated, then lower-GI upset as well. (Yeah, TMI, I know…) Don’t care what flavor it’s masked with, either…
If you’ve never used protein powder, it’s probably because you’re a little intimidated by it.
Mmmm, nope. It’s because I have much less gastrically troublesome sources of protein in my diet already, and don’t need this questionably-buggered ex-pea powder mucking up what I’m having. For people who want it or believe they need it, fine, not my problem.
For what it’s worth, I did the math and compared the price to my normal, go-to (MyProtein)… All these bags together are 117.12oz / 7.32lb. MyProtein, who admittedly just had a hugely contested price increase, is $109 for a 5.5lb bag. They have a lot of options and I believe I have the comparison as close as I can get it. But I ordered these…
Fifteen minutes to go, on a Friday night. I’m going to go way out on a limb here, risk it all, and predict that the rollover will not be the start of a Mehrathon.

@guybrush01 ( @yakkoTDI )
I think it bothers you more than it should.
[LOL]
@phendrick @yakkoTDI Nah, I decided days ago to stop trying to post first. But shitposting about yakkoTDI is so much more satisfiying.
@phendrick I think it does too.
Isn’t hemlock also “plant-based”?
So that, in itself, shouldn’t necessarily be a recommending characteristic?
@phendrick yes, this is hemlock based. To some of us that’s a plus.
@erthian @phendrick thin your waist or thin the herd. Win, win.
@phendrick It’s kind of a big deal to vegans.
Seems like this plant-based protein powder product contains a lot of peas.
@awk Give peas a chance.
@awk Ah an awesome ascertainment of alliteration
EVERYTHING IS AWESOME!
@awk @Kyeh
Give pizza chants.
Imagine whirled peas.
@mediocrebot Now that song is in my head.
7.32lbs…
0.36% of a ton
Is this a mehtric ton?
Am I missing the ingredients and nutrition info labels somewhere?
@fondaporn said the accounting interns now in charge of design.

@commonhero @fondaporn @Telanis Mmmmmmmm… Fecal matter smoothies.

@hockeyham What the hell happened to his hand???

Organic fertilizer. Is there any better?
Sorry. I can’t buy a nutritional supplement if you can’t show me the nutritional information.
Vanilla Oat
gack

@CBL_WV Have you tried hemp seed protein? It’s the only one my body likes.
That model number deserves a tee:

Skip the digestion, Deposit straight into toilet.
There’s no sign of oats. So it’s just oat flavor? Who would add “oat” as a flavor but not an ingredient?
Not just any old plant protein, but chemically engineered Frankenplant Protein! Mwa-ha-ha!
Wait, what? Watermelon based protein? Huh.
Maltodextrin is not natural nor is it a good choice for a clean diet. This is a bleh more than a meh!
Mmmm, nope. It’s because I have much less gastrically troublesome sources of protein in my diet already, and don’t need this questionably-buggered ex-pea powder mucking up what I’m having. For people who want it or believe they need it, fine, not my problem.
