Taste		I think the vanilla taste is quite good, and blends good with skimmed milk.


Texture		This is a good protein if you don't like the thick texture of other proteins.. I, personally, don't like how liquidy this is after its all mixed up, which I'm assuming is because of how this protein is instantized.. Good stuff and good price..
