looking for a quality, no-frills milk or whey protein supplement

I have not read the whole thread but when I was a competitive cyclist I would use powdered milk added to a glass of milk with maybe a shot of chocolate syrup or powder to add some flavor. I think it was about 18 grams of protein but if you are lactose intolerant wouldn't be good. I was pretty young and didn't have a lot of money and it was much cheaper than the protein supplements.

I also saw someone suggest cottage cheese. A good way to eat it is a bed of lettuce with some scooped onto it with a couple chunks of canned pineapple and some shredded cheddar cheese. Sounds a little out there but makes a pretty good snack that tastes good and is healthy and has a decent amount of protein.

keep in mind the source of that info and where its posted :).. as for protein shakes during the day not after a heavy lifting routine is not needed. your body absorbs more out of actual food than those shakes. if you get the protein farts, you know the ones that stink to high hell? you are eating too much protein at one time. eat less of it in a sitting. your body can only process so much at a time.
