Vega Protein Made Simple Caramel Toffee 9 1 oz 258 g

I’ve been using Vega protein powders for years now, but I had never tried this salted caramel flavor. So I was very excited about trying it, but when it came it was definitely not what I expected. First off the container is so much smaller than Vega’s standard container (yes, I should have paid more attention to the description), and the worse is the amount of powder you get in the box. As you can see pictured, right when you open it, it’s filled up to about half the container. You have to deep your hand all the way inside to reach the powder. So disappointed in this product altogether. I gave it 2 stars just because the powder does taste good, but it’s not worth the price at all. Will not be buying this again.

I’ve tried nearly every plant based protein powder on the market. After years and years of searching, I still have not found the perfect one. While, I’m not a huge fan of the vega’s sport or all-in-one replacement powders, this one NAILED IT. I got the Caramel Toffee flavor, which is AMAZING. Texture of the powder was good, easy to dissolve, etc. I literally have no complaints besides the fact that it doesn’t come in a larger size! I would also like my scoop size to be worth 20g of protein instead of 15g :).

Both: Not too sweet, despite having real sugar. I love that this isn't full of artificial junk. Blends in shaker cup easily. Open it somewhere you can easily clean. It is a light-weight powder and can make a mess if you aren't careful. y only problem, which is true of all Vega protein is this: why can't the scoop be attached to the side or lid? Other companies have found ways to do this and still keep the containers sealed. I prefer Vega, but gosh, it would be nice to not be fishing out the scoop.Caramel Toffee Flavor : The caramel-toffee flavor was very light and not heavily sweet or intense. I like to add a scoop to my other less tasty protein powders because this improves them.Strawberry Banana: I saw a lot of happy reviews for this. I am not sure I like it as much as the other flavors. It isn't bad tasting, and it has real, actual, dried strawberry and banana in it for flavor. It reminds me of dried strawberries and banana chips. I imagine blending this with fruit would be amazing. I understand why people like it, but it isn't my favorite since I drink them in plain water.

I used to love Vega One, but since being pregnant couldn’t handle the taste of stevia anymore. It’s just too bitter and licorice-y for me. I started buying the unflavored and adding chocolate syrup, which helped for a while...until I realized it was giving me major gut rot and I had to run to the bathroom shortly after drinking it (even after being pregnant, when your guts are no longer topsy-turvy). I recently gave Vega protein & greens a try it again, that awful stevia taste was just too overpowering. I wish I had seen this first! It’s only 100 calories a serving and blends up smoothly with almond milk. No gums so it’s not sludgy. Just a little real sugar so it actually tastes great. The dark chocolate is decent, but the caramel toffee I actually CRAVE. I hope they never stop making this. Highly highly recommend it.

My doctor recently told me that I had to up my protein intake and I was like — how? Especially because most protein powders/drinks are Nast-ee. I watched the 2nd review video and decided to give this one a try. Whew chile! I mix it with vanilla oat milk and let me tell you…it…is…amazing! It does contain sugar, so you do have to be mindful of your liquids or add ins. If I could I’d probably drink 2-3 each day, but that would definitely put a huge dent in my daily carb allotment. I did try the vanilla—umm yeah, no. Hard Pass. I also tried the strawberry banana. It was just—okay. Don’t like it as much as the Carmel toffee, but I highly doubt I’ll like any of it as much as the Carmel toffee. Go get it today. You won’t regret it.
