no more protein powder for me
I thought i would try the brown rice protein powder once more. im going to say "no". i guess its the amino acids within the protein itself because the ingredients should have been ok. brown rice nad something else, cant remember. frustrates me b/c they were so good to have a morning pick-me-up. something easy and healthy. im blue
