Product Description
I created Pure Food because:
- I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that reduced my ability to digest foods like corn, dairy, and soy.
- I couldn't find any plant based protein powders without the fillers, “natural” flavors, sweeteners, and other junk.
- After doing plenty of research, I found that most protein powders companies source their proteins from China, where ingredient standards are less stringent.
As a small, family-owned business trying to compete with mega corporations who put profits over health, we believe what wins hearts and minds is when products (and the people behind them) are REAL.
That’s why all Pure Food products are:
- Made from real, organic, plant-based food instead of chemicals and junk your body (and our planet) doesn’t need.
- Don't have any added sugars, "flavors", gums, or fillers like everyone else, even if it means selling a few less products.
- Sourced from the U.S. and Canada (not China like everyone else) and produce them in a GMP-certified, FDA-approved facility here in the USA.
And since day 1, we’ve donated 5 meals to Feeding America’s Detroit-based chapter, Forgotten Harvest for every order we get (over 70,000 meals donated to date!).
Because we believe all businesses should give back to their communities.
If you have questions, reach out to me personally anytime.
Thanks for taking the time to read our story. I hope you give us a chance to become a part of yours and help you achieve your health and wellness goals.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
To prove it, let's compare "Amazon's Choice" for plant-based protein powder, Orgain, with Pure Food:
Servings: Pure Food, 16 --- Orgain, 20
Grams per: Pure Food, 32 --- Orgain, 46
Calories: Pure Food, 119 --- Orgain, 150
Fat: Pure Food, 1g --- Orgain, 4g
Carb: Pure Food, 6g --- Orgain, 13g
Protein Pure Food, 20g --- Orgain, 21g
For basically the same amount of protein, Orgain is much higher in calories, fat and carbs. Why? Orgain's powder is filled with, well, fillers: erythritol, dextrins, gums, inulin. Seriously? Now the fascists at the FDA have given these items the blessed status of GRAS (generally recognized as safe), but even if they are "safe," you do not want or need them in your body (and by the way, not all of these are "safe" for all people - just check out the relationship between inulin and folks with IBS. Whatever, FDA).
Anyway, Pure Food is just that ***PURE***: seven whole, organic super foods + probiotics (no fillers, no GMO, no soy, no dairy, no death).
Now some reviewers have mentioned price. Price per serving is less than a plain, "Venti," cup of coffee at Starbucks (read: reasonable).
Others have lamented the taste, but friends, if you prepare it properly, the taste is fab (we love caramelized onions, right? Yet not many of us just pick up an onion and eat it like an apple. Same thing here.) In our house (including my capricious teenage children), we simply add (a) two cups of vanilla almond milk or coconut water and (b) two medium-sized bananas to (c) one scoop of the powder with (d) an handful of ice, and blend. Done. Thick, luxurious, guilt-free, death-free, sapidity - and there is your word for the day too :-p
Finally, in purchasing this product you will also be supporting an American-owned, small business and thus providing common ground for Gary Johnson, Bernie Sanders and (gasp) Trump voters (and please do not hate, we all need to establish common ground or we are not going to make it the next four years.)
(and, no, I am not a friend or relative of anyone who works for Pure Food, we are just simply fans.)
I have a background in nutrition and don't typically support the use of protein shakes if actual food is readily available. Also, in general, I don't find them to taste good. Taste wise, this one holds-up. I was suspect of the good reviews thinking that I was merely reading the opinions of cult followers. This one actually tastes pretty good with just following one of the basic recipes on the back of the bag. I tried their recommended meal-replacement recipe since my work schedule doesn't always allow me to eat a proper meal. I was a little nervous just using the water-base (as opposed to almond milk). To my surprise, it has a pretty respectable texture with no funky aftertaste.
In regards to the nutrition content, it would be nice if they listed the amino acid profile on the label but they are not required to do so which took it down a star. Meaning, it's fine that it says "protein 10g" but if it's not complete protein it could be a problem if it's your only protein source. Although, upon further reading of the ingredient list, I'm going to have to take a leap that they added the brown rice to "compliment" the pea protein. Again, I'm guessing here since I'm not able to find the amino acid profile of this supplement anywhere: not here or on their company website.
Research supports the use of pea protein vs. whey protein so it's particularly useful for those looking to use it for post-workout nutrition. That being said, this company doesn't try to throw a ton a vitamins and minerals in there either. Let's be real, you are eating other foods (I assume) and you can't expect that one mere drink will solve all your needs. If you do, then you are better off with something like Ensure. Besides, the more vitamin/minerals you add, the worse tasting it will likely get. I appreciated that they tried to keep it simple and focus on the protein basics and taste. Will purchase again based on the fact that it kept me relatively satisfied for a few hours and knowing that I also eat other foods to get the nutrients that this particular shake might not provide.
