Orgain's original plant-based powder is built for everyday use rather than sport. Each serving has 21 g of vegan protein and 7 g of prebiotic and fiber, with no added sugar, and it is gluten free and non-GMO. Orgain says it seeks USDA organic certification for its products and avoids soy ingredients and carrageenan. It is pitched as a pantry ingredient as much as a shake: Orgain suggests adding it to pancakes and baking. Five flavors are sold in 1 lb and 2 lb canisters, and three of them contain small amounts of caffeine; Creamy Chocolate Fudge has about 8 to 9 mg per serving from cocoa. The 2.03 lb canister costs $37.99 on a one-time order, the lowest tub price on our list, or $32.29 with Subscribe & Save. The reason it ranks eighth is testing: the product page does not name any third-party testing for contaminants or banned substances, which is the focus of this list.
