OWYN Only What You Need Pro Elite Vegan 30g Plant-Based High Protein Powder, Zero Sugar (Dark Chocolate, 2.9 lbs)

I can’t say enough good things about this protein powder! It checks all the boxes: no artificial sweeteners, flavors, or colors, soy-free, and sugar-free—just clean ingredients that I feel good about putting into my body.The taste is absolutely fantastic, which is rare for a protein powder with such a clean ingredient profile. It’s rich and satisfying without any weird aftertaste, making it a treat to enjoy every day. I love mixing it with almond milk for a creamy shake, but it also blends perfectly into smoothies, oatmeal, or even baking recipes.What sets it apart is how filling it is. Whether I use it for a post-workout snack or as a quick meal replacement, it keeps me full and energized without any bloating or crashes.If you’re looking for a protein powder that tastes amazing, is packed with clean ingredients, and truly delivers on quality, this is the one to try. I’m officially hooked!

Absolutely love this protein powder! It’s hard to find a vegan protein powder with high protein and a good taste but owyn nailed it! Definitely recommend.

THE GOODI’ll start off with, I’m not a fan of the monk fruit sweetener after taste.. but I appreciate that is a healthier sweetener. The after taste is similar to stevia, of which I’m also not a fan (I like sucralose).The aftertaste is DEFINITELY the worst part.This product, like most of the plant based protein shakes also has a bit of gritty texture. I am not bothered by this since all 3 different brands of plant based protein shakes have a similar texture.THE GOODThis product seems to have more protein than several other plant based protein shakes. Love the addition of probiotics.I am able to mix it fairly well using just water and ice. Defiantly mixes more easily than animal/milk based proteins. It’s also easier on my stomach than the milk based protein shakes. I’m not lactose intolerant but having 3 milk based protein shakes a day will make my stomach angry.AS LONG as you do, not mind the monk fruit AFTERTASTE It’s a GREAT VALUE for the money.

I intended this as a simple question, not as a review. But my question did not seem to fit within the the character limit permitted for Q&A. So I have expanded it for greater clarity (after wasting time to try and make it “short enough” as a question in the Q&A)…Few seem to be aware that there are 2 versions of this product on this web page - “CHOCOLATE” and “DARK CHOCOLATE.” Those who have noticed and asked? They don’t get a good enough answer - they don’t cover what I wanted to know, anyway.To see what I mean, please scroll up and click on the 2 sizes for this product (1.1 Pound and 2.4 Pound). You’ll get two different “labels”…The 1.1 Pound is “DARK CHOCOLATE”) while the 2.4 is “CHOCOLATE.” That may sound like a small thing to many, but “dark chocolate” is different from “regular” chocolate. Also, clicking on the 1.1 Pound size causes the description to change - it uses the word “dark” several more times.So there IS a deliberate difference, at least for as long as the company chooses to communicate the merits of these 2 sizes differently, looking like 2 different products. Up to now, I did not care because the taste was always great - a rich, real “dark chocolate.”Recently, though, I received my latest (7th) shipment from Amazon. I noticed something different. The next part is from memory because I don’t have the previous contained to compare wording…The word “dark chocolate” does not appear anywhere on the new packaging - not even “chocolate.” It may have appeared on the wrapping that I tore away from the cap, I don’t know (threw it out, too). But it does not appear anywhere else.Also, when I read the rest of the package, the language seems more clinical in places, although that may just be my bias wondering what happened to the proud use of the world “dark chocolate.”Anyway, all this only REALLY mattered when I tasted the latest shipment. GONE is that rich dark chocolate taste that I loved so much.That taste was so wonderfuil that it helped me understand how some pro athletes say, “I can’t believe they pay me to play this game.” Well, I couldn’t believe that this rich chocolate taste was actually good for me!What about this new taste?😖😫🥲And those are the kinder emojis. It was bitter, metallic, chemical. I was thrown all the way back to the competitors that I had tried previously.If I’m getting this taste because this how the “chocolate” version is supposed to taste (i.e., it is not the “dark chocolate”), well, they need to communicate that more clearly.On the other hand, if they have changed the formulation, we have a bigger problem.Am I alone in this? I can see that a few others have noticed the difference (between the 1.1 and 2.4 Pound sizes). It has never been well explained, so if anyone can add to this, I’m sure many would appreciate it.But now there may be a bigger issue - what happened to my rich dark chocolate taste? Am I alone in that, too? Just a bad batch?I have to give this 1* for now because this “review” (for lack of being able to ask a question) comes from the bad taste, which is present for whatever “version” I received.

IMO, best plant based powder. No added sweetener or sugar is a huge plus. It does not mix very well with straight water and doesnt have the best taste with water. However, I exclusively use it for protein smoothies. With a nutribullet to really blend it, it gives a fantastic chocolate flavor when mixed with PB, yogurt, fruit, etc. All in all, you'll love it if you're making a shake/smoothie. Highly recommend.

I’ve been ordering the chocolate for years and love the product. It’s one of the best plant based protein blend drinks I’ve tried. Great taste and smooth to mix up. In 2025, Company has sent the wrong item 2 times. Because these are not refundable, it’s been frustrating.

It does have a distinct after taste to me, but it is plant based not like the rest with additives. I have it in the mornings or take it with me to mix as a lunch replacement. Good to have.
