Vitol Egg
Supplement Facts: Calories 129, Fat 1g, cholesterol 0g, Carbs 1g, Sugars, 1g, Protein 29g.
It is 36 scoops and these are the nutrition facts on my bottle if anyone is curious.
It is extremely stevia type sweet. I like sweet stuff but too much stevia can make me a little nauseous. So, I would prefer this protein have have a few more carbs or grams of sugar for flavor than that much stevia.
Now I do like how it doesn't have an egg yolk taste. That's my favorite part to this product. It's definitely egg white crystals in the tub. Extremely pure.
It does NOT mix well at all. It foams extremely badly, and never settles. There is no lecithin or sunflower lecithin in it, that's probably why it doesn't mix well at all.
Despite this, I still like it. I may even buy it again. I do wanna try all other vanilla egg protein powders out there to compare what's the best. I'm guessing the 29 grams of protein is accounting for what is lost in foam. So it's probably closer to 25 grams a scoop after mixing it, because of how bad the egg yolk crystals foam when mixing. It won't mix without a shaker bottle or blender. Shaker bottle definitely required.
I would definitely give this a five star if they just added sunflower lecithin so it would mix better and have less foam waste.
This review is as from 7-17-22.

Sickening Sweet
I'm 67 years old and have been a loyal customer of Vitol's 100% egg protein for probably thirty years. Stuck with it even when the prices went through the roof for egg protein. It WAS an outstanding product. I just reordered three containers. When I mixed it with my morning smoothie and went to drink it, I almost threw up. It was so sickening sweet. Tried mixing it half and half with another protein powder and the sweetness is still overwhelming. My old batch code was 19164 06/22. The new batch code is EE58113 10/28/2023. I don't know who is in charge of making decisions at Vitol, but I do know that they took a great product and trashed it.

Quality stuff
This is a great protein. I mix one scoop with metrx's protein plus vanilla and I get pretty much different types of protein intake and absorption to keep my nitrogen balance positive. Granted, the batch that I have is pretty sweet due to the flavoring but the pros very much outweigh the cons. Mixability is Ok, but I use a nutri-bullet anyway. By itself it is very delicious with added bananas, strawberries and milk or ice. I was worried about the bee pollen since bee pollen usually makes me very itchy but for some odd reason Vitols Egg Protein doesn't make me itch. I actually feel very good and energized after drinking it. Would I buy this again? Certainly! One more thing...I also find that this type of protein is easy to digest as some whey isolates make me run to the bathroom after drinking. Highly recommended. It is a bit pricey but you pay for what you get for~~quality.

Yummy Egg Protein mix
At first reading the comments, others are saying this has doubled in price. But in comparison to the price for this (about $1.25 per oz) to the Healthy & Fit (2 lb) @ $1.37 per oz ... this is still a better price. Or am I doing my math wrong? Regardless, this is really good tasting and we mix ours along with a plain and chocolate by Metagenics. My husband developed Guillain Barre back on 8-1-15 and it's been pure #@$# building his muscles back, which just started coming back within the past two months, since we've been using all three of the powders. Overall we are happy with this but if anyone finds another, better priced, and tastes as good, please post it !

Egg Protein
I have to agree with Liftcycleyoga. I have tried many egg proteins and found Vitol's to be the best. I thought it WAS a great product at a great price. I missed it when it was gone. So excited to see it back, but not enough to pay double of what it used to be. So it only gets a 3 from me. Guess I'll stick with the competition, Healthy N Fit. Banana flavor is pretty good and more affordable.
