Why not just get protein powder?

EDIT: Alternatively, you could go on http://blendrunner.com/ which gives a comparison of the various meal-replacement drinks out there.

Standard protein powder is usually animal protein which even if you're not a vegetarian is kinda gross.

If you aren't a vegetarian why would be it be 'kinda gross' in fact even if you are.

Protein powder is mostly whey, which is a milk component and most vegetarians eat dairy.

Why would a vegetarian have a problem with protein powder? It's just milk, it's not made of cows.
