Almond protein powder hits Amazon
Blue Diamond's almond protein powder - made by expeller pressing almonds to remove the oil, partially defatting the remaining cake, and milling it to create a fine powder - has a clean taste, allowing formulators to use it without adding sugars or flavors to mask off tastes associated with some other plant proteins, claims the firm, which has just released it as a consumer product on Amazon.
