What's the /fit/ verdict on pea protein powder? It's cheap as fuck (£29.99 for 5kg) and doesn't seem radically lower in protein content than whey at 80g per 100g. What's the drawback that Big Peas are trying to hide from me?
I didn't even know this was a thing. I wonder if it tastes like shit.
Tastes like shit. I use a small amount in my homemade proton bars. It acts like flour to dry the pb. I use more whey in the bars

Just eat real food. If this isn't possible for you there's no difference between any of the types of protons unless you're taking in 50+g of soy protein shakes a day.

Can you disguise the flavours with other stuff? I'm thinking of getting it to chuck a couple scoops in smoothies, and I'm naturally attracted to it for how stupid cheap it is compared to even the cheapest whey powder I usually buy.
See pic related regarding plant protein vs animal protein. Keep in mind Scooby loves shilling plant based dieting. Not even the king of /fit/ ignores that plant protein is absorbed poorly.
mix it with rice protein to get complete amino acid profile if you care about that. Eating it without puking is the real challenge

I don't taste it in my bars so yes.

double the protein? how does this anti-magic work

>how does this anti-magic work
1. have 1 spoon of protein
2. add a 2nd spoon of protein

thank you anon, simple math has been foiling me for years

Actualy you are comparing pure beans with pea protein, 320g of pea protein would be 1523,2 kcal.

I just googled "pea protein" and took the first picture because I didn't want to look like a shill for the proton company I buy from desu
