Are you talking about the Protein Shakes? If so, I have not seen any unflavored one's but the one's that I am using for my 2 week pre op are flavored strawberry shortcake and Cinommin bun. The are made by Bariatric Fusion and they are pretty good, I mix them with unsweetened Almond milk.

powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury sells the unflavored whey Protein powder online. I have used it and could not taste it. You can add it to anything. I have used it in chili and other Soups and could not taste it. I have Unjury chicken flavored on hand, too. I have put their chocolate flavor in hot chocolate, but you can't go higher than 140 degrees or it clumps up. I have found that for me, the Protein powders taste better in milk than in Water. Sometimes I use almond milk if I want less calories. My favorite flavor is the vanilla powder because I can add extra vanilla and any kind of fruit.

If I want a lighter, water-based drink, then I prefer Syntax. They have many fruit flavors and even have mixed sample packs to sell.

Remember, unflavored doesn't mean there is no flavor, it means they ADD no flavor to it. To me unflavored Protein Powder has a creamy, almost coffee-creamer taste, kinda like powdered milk. I don't mind it in the slightest, and it is milky-looking when added to liquid. I prefer it to pre-made shakes. I use TG's, found on Amazon.com. I also use GENEPRO. Hope this helps!

I am using Unjury and find that once stirred in it has no flavor or texture. For me it is the best I've found

Add me to the unjury list. I agree that it kind of has a vague coffee creamer-ish taste. I've added it to Soups, pudding mixes and even coffee. It mixes very smooth.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
