Question Unjury...Who likes it and who doesn't?

Hi guys I keep reading about the Unjury protein drinks. I really don't want to waste my money so I would like to take a poll to see who likes and who doesn't. It has to taste good before I'll use it.

I switched to Unjury about 3 weeks ago. I bought the Chocolate and mix with light vanilla soy milk. I absolutely love it. It isn't that great mixed with water, but with the soy milk it tastes like chocolate milk.

I've only had the tasteless kind and I like it because you can mix it in anything. But I wouldn't go so far as to say awesome.

Ditto for me--the Unflavored is fine for sugar free/fat free puddings, the chicken soup tastes good going down but leaves an aftertaste in your mouth, and I thought the chocolate was just okay. I wouldn't say Awesome!!! or Alright!! for any of the three I've tried.

Sorry, said this before, my preference is whey protein isolate powder, belgian chocolate flavor, from Amazon.com: Online Shopping for Electronics, Apparel, Computers, Books, DVDs & more and I make sure I get free shipping. Now I think THAT is awesome!

But every person is different and you just have to keep trying until you find the one that's right for you--maybe by buying samples if they are available or just a 1# container to begin with.

There are a gazillion flavors at amazon.com -- good luck in finding your preference. You know our bodies are worth it!

Well I like the Unjury.
If you don't want to buy the canister...you can order sample packets. I have tried the chocolate, vanilla, strawberry sorbet and the chicken flavor.
My fav is the chocolate. The strawberry sorbet is ok but kind of leaves an aftertaste.
But it is definitely the best I have tried outthere with a good amount of protein.

I really like the Chocolate Unjury. I mix with skim milk and it takes like chocolate milk. It mixes very well too. I have also mixed with coffee and it was good. Just make sure your coffee isn't too hot or it will curdle. I don't care for the unflavored. Vanilla is okay too.

I wouldn't say "like". I think all protein drinks are gross but Unjury was the least gross I found out of the 1,453,745 I tried

As Protein Drinks Go.....

Unjury is right up there at the top, along with Multi Pro Belgian Chocolate and Whey Gourmet Chocolate Peanut Butter (my very personal favorite!).

99% of what I tried were dumped to the sink after one or two sips...These I can drink!! I tried the Unjury chocolate, unflavored (with warm water and Better than Boullion as a hot drink), Chicken Soup flavored, and vanilla. I like them all, and these are the only drinks I do along with the two mentioned above and Muscle Milk Lite (the only premixed drink I have found that fell within my doctor's guidelines and that I liked). I mix the cold drinks with water and ice and blend, or with skim milk and ice and blend usually. They don't have that 'thick' taste that some of the canned shakes have.

I like Unjury. I have the chocolate with skim milk in the morning and then I have a strawberry sorbet mixed in Crystal light lemonade in the afternoon. It's better really cold but it has a smooth taste. Somtimes I add a squirt of sugar free daVince syrup to kick up the flavor. I think the chicken soup tasted ok but I like my broth much warmer than 130 degrees. Luke warm chicken broth didn't do it for me.

It's not so much that Unjury tastes bad, it SMELLS BAD!! The smell just turns my stomach so much that I cannot stand to drink it. If you are sensitive to smells, Unjury will not be the one for you.

Nope, do not like Unjury. Didn't like the smell one bit, and that just sealed its fate for me.

The unflavored is absolutely disgusting--smelly, foamy, gross aftertaste. I like the vanilla and chocolate mixed in Slender Soy. It's ok in skim milk, but the soy is thicker, so it tastes like rich, creamy chocolate milk or (in my mind) kind of a vanilla shake.
