Naked Seed

I find this protein to be similar in quality to Hemp Seed protein. As in it's mild on the GI tract and very inoffensive. I find it to be among the cleanest, most stomach-pleasing proteins I've sampled. However it is unflavored and the taste is awful by itself. Added to things like oatmeal it imparts a nice earthy, nutty flavor. This is NOT a convenience powder, but rather a nice additive to varieties of meals. Would be great to bake with. It is currently overpriced as a newer product in the line-up, however. 1 star for flavor 2 stars for value 3 stars for blending 5 stars for being a clean, healthy protein option that won't upset your stomach. Currently various brands of Hemp protein are a better value, though. Take it for what you will. Will keep my eye out for these proteins at a better price.

i’ve tried so many plant-based proteins and most taste like dirt or chalk. this one is smooth, clean, and has a subtle nutty flavor that blends perfectly into smoothies or oatmeal. no weird aftertaste, no bloating. it’s literally just 4 ingredients and my body loves it.

I have bought this powder a few times. I’m sensitive to a lot of things in protein powders (nuts, sweeteners, etc.), but seeds work for me so I was happy to find this powder with simple ingredients. It tasted okay in smoothies, with a pretty neutral flavor. I don’t use protein powder every day, and eventually my last batch went stale. As soon as you open it, it smells like sawdust, and tastes like it too. I’m not mad about that because it doesn’t contain preservatives. However, I ordered a new container, and as soon as it arrived it had that same sawdust smell. I tried it in one smoothie just to be sure, and I had to toss the whole thing. I don’t know if the product’s turnover is slower now, but I can’t purchase again and risk spending $30 on something that will go in the trash.

The container for this product is very unwieldy (not to mention partially filled, as others have noted). I have rather large hands for a woman, and I have trouble holding the container, to the point that I have almost dropped it on the floor twice, scattering powder everywhere. Why not use a narrower container and fill it up? I understand that the product is sold by weight, but that doesn’t mean you have to use an outsize plastic container, which is very wasteful. And for the people who said the product doesn’t taste good: hey, it’s made of ground-up seeds. What did you expect it to taste like—a milkshake? Add some fruit and berries and plant milk, and it will taste fine, especially if you put in some ice cubes. I like that it has only four ingredients and not a lot of add-ins.

This is perfect protein powder for smoothies! Very clean ingredients. This product blends well in smoothies and is easy to digest. Great value. I got the "unflavored" and it does have a bit of a natural seed flavor. I found it is tolerable with some chocolate syrup or Nutella blended in.

I bought this product because I can’t take any kind of protein isolates, whey, soy or pea. I didn’t expect good taste as it’s unflavored but the smell and flavor is SO strong that it is overpowering and there is nothing you can add to a smoothie that will cover it up. The texture is gravelly and chalky as well. It’s jsut awful, BUT it’s a very natural and healthy form of extra protein if you can’t take any other kind!

I love using this in smoothies and peanut butter protein waffles. Doesn’t make me feel bloated or gassy like other protein powders! Has a different smell at first, but blends nicely and I don’t notice it.

I can’t really get over the taste. I can taste it in anything I mix it with.
