Evaporated Cane Juice (in Hemp Protein powder)?

Branwyn32Branwyn32 Raw Newbie

How good/bad is this for you?

I put Living Harvest Hempseed protein powder in my smoothies…but good lord does it taste like crap. I used to love my green smoothies…but this stuff makes them taste so bitter and gross. They make a vanilla spice flavoured version but I opted out of it because it had evaporated can juice in it.

As it stands though, I just can’t get another canister of the plain version…it makes me not even want to drink my smoothies. Would the flavoured version be that bad?

    Instead of using the hemp protein powders you could try just using hemp seeds in your green smoothies. I can’t really taste them at all.

    I can’t get raw ones though (illegal in the US). :( Are the roasted ones just as good?

    and can you get them in a decent sized bag? The ones I’ve seen are like $8 for an 8 oz bag…I’d go thru that in like 3 days. I can’t even afford the big $15 canister of powder… fail

    Oops, sorry Branwyn. I thought it was raw, but it’s probably not.

    Yep, it’s pretty expensive, but I don’t eat a lot at a time. Maybe a tablespoon or so a day (in my morning smoothie), so a bag lasts a couple of weeks.

    Here’s a brand you can get online or at your local Health Food Store. http://www.livingnutritionals.com/index.php?cPa… If the link doesn’t take you to the seeds, click on Nutiva and go to the organic hemp seeds. Good luck!
