I am a sucker for word plays and clever names so Gotein -- "protein to go!" -- basically had me at, well, at Gotein.
Each packet has 16 or 17grams of protein, 5 or 6grams of carbs and 100-110 calories. You can read more about the nutritional information HERE.
So, OK. Gotein is easy to use and gives you lots of protein. And it tastes surprisingly good. I always expect drinks like this to taste chalky and I didn't find that with Gotein at all. Gotein comes in three flavors: Vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. My favorite -- by far -- is the vanilla flavor. My least favorite is the strawberry and the chocolate was right in the middle.
I took the Gotein out of the water bottle, though, and tried it in my smoothie. I normally add chia seeds or chlorella granules to my smoothie but I've tried vanilla whey protein a few times and enjoyed it. The same was true of the Gotein. For my smoothie, the strawberry worked really well, as did the vanilla. I didn't try the chocolate.
To buy:
You can buy Gotein directly from the company HERE -- a box of 12 packets is $24.95 -- or you can find a retailer HERE.
To win:
I have a sampler of three packets of Gotein (one of each flavor) to giveaway. To enter, leave me a comment letting me know you'd like to win.

Tweeted about this giveaway. I am all about protien, and this seems like a way easy way to do it. Most portable protein packets don't have that much, awesome!

I have a protein shake almost every AM. I use Met-rx and like the pre-packaged convenience. This sounds even more convenient and great for shaking up a recovery drink!
I would love to win! (:
