Protein Powder Recommendations - Walmart, Shoppers or Online
I love unflavored Precision Extreme Isolate 97! I get it at Popeye's and it's the best tasting of the proteins I've had. It is 97% pure so it doesn't have the horrid aftertaste a lot of protein powders do.

I love the syntrax nectar proteins. I use the chocolate and vanilla, but have tried most of their flavours, including the fruity ones (think fruit punch, fuzzy peach, iced tea, etc.) and have enjoyed those as well. I just find for making my shakes and using it in baking that these are the two most versitile flavours. They mix easily with milk or water, don't clump and don't have an after taste. I buy them online at the low carb grocery but got a sample pack straight from the manufacturer first so I could decide which flavour I wanted to invest a whole container in. I believe it was a 13 flavour sampler for $13, no shipping charges.
Hope this helps!

as long as they're within the guidle ines, less than 5g carbs and have a good count of protein per serving >20g you should be good to go. The unflavored one is a little trickier in my experience, as a few I have tasted have real tastes and that isn't what I expected, they all change the texture of what they're added to but some really have tastes. For the unflavored I would get to a GNC or Popeyes so you can taste it before you buy. Just my opinion! Good Luck!
They sell ISO-Femme at Walmart... It is reasonably priced typically... Chocolate is a winner. Strawberry is not bad... Vanilla I am still working on processing but I am not a vanilla girl to begin with. Stats meet our needs. a 31g scoop has 25g of protein... Etc. etc. http://www.isofemme.com/
I have been known to combine chocolate and strawberry... That was good too.
And many of the places will ship so if you do venture out and find something you like you can typically purchase and ship.

The chocolate-banana and Chocolate-Peanut Butter are amazing. I have been using whey protein for 10+ years and have tried more than I can remember and this is the best I have ever had. Mixes awesome with with water or milk. Best is to put in magic bullet with some ice.
The Orange Cream is not one of my favourite flavours. You can sometimes find it also at Zehrs but price is $32 a bag so cheaper to get online and you can get sample packs too and just pay shipping to try first. Shipping is about 5 days.
