oh also i'm starting Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
i got muscle milk (vanilla flavor) because it was
1) there, at eye level
2) previous baby research said pea protein was low quality? and mm has no pea protein at all
3) was Not 40$ for a big jug
rec serving is 2 scoops (70g) of powder in 8floz of water (or Smoothie Material, or oatmeal, or pancake mix, etc)
i balked out of 70g and did ~30g instead, in 8floz water for the Prime Experience, and blended it with the little electronic swizzle stick thing stores pass off as a milk foamer.
result: watery vanilla....
* not horrible, but i might up to 70g for texture consistency
* also, milk. also also, pancakes......
* wasn't death hungry afterwards, but did experience Hunger at typical later time
conclusions: will probably be perfect for 'just woke up, need food' breakfast, and 'supplemented with Tastee Snack' lunch.

update:
had abt 60g with milk instead. slightly better taste!
either i need to blend it better or put in less powder, cause there were damp powder bits.
re: oh also i'm starting Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
@catterfly I think there are bottles with weird metal doohickeys in them that are designed to break up powder as you shake it?
re: oh also i'm starting Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
@Mous yeeh, but 1) acquiring bottle, and 2) they're very small and taste like cake batter :9
re: oh also i'm starting Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
@catterfly 8 oz is small?
re: oh also i'm starting Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
@Mous kdfj 8floz of liquid, the blubs are sequin sized
re: oh also i'm starting Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
@catterfly Ahh, the powder bits are small. I think that's the size of thing the shakers are meant to break up, though.

when will you be trying "exhausted shoveling of dry spoonfuls into mouth followed by gargling with milk"?
re: cont: Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
@Mous thank u for ur question! hopefully never. awful.
re: cont: Investigation Experiment: Protein Powder (meal replacement) vs Disordered Eating!
40g with warm milk instead of cold.
worked p well! maybe a little less foaming action next time, me.
