Bob’s Red Mill Protein Review
About:
“PRESERVING NUTRITION THROUGH TRADITION
At Bob’s Red Mill, we know that you can’t rush quality. That’s why we manufacture our products using time-honored techniques, like grinding whole grains at cool temperatures with a traditional stone mill. This production ‘secret’ allows us to seal in the freshness and bring you wholesome, quality foods, just as nature intended.
Our beautiful stone grinding mills are much like the ones used during early Roman times. And to this day, our quartz millstones remain the best way to produce the finest products available. Unlike high-speed steel rollers, our stone mills ensure the most nutritious parts of the whole grain remain, so we can pack all-natural goodness right into your bag.
MILLING, TESTING, PACKAGING, DISTRIBUTING—ALL UNDER ONE ROOF
We’ve known from the first day we opened our doors in 1978 that to make the best products possible, we’d have to be able to do it all ourselves. And with our state-of-the-art milling, packaging and distribution facility located right in Milwaukie, Oregon, we’re able to guarantee quality, every step of the way.
Bob’s Red Mill takes great pride in handling all aspects of the production process in-house, starting with processing, washing and inspecting the grain, and ending with shipping the finished product to your door.
Each product undergoes extensive quality control tests within our in-house laboratories. During this testing phase, our gluten-free offerings are segregated from our other products, and tested in special gluten-free-only ‘clean room facilities.’
But don’t just take it from us; you can actually see the results of all our hard work. With our special clear packaging, you get to be the final judge of the quality and freshness of our products, before you take them home.
SOURCING THE FINEST PRODUCTS
FROM OUR FARMS TO YOUR TABLE
Our relationship with our product starts at the source, with the farmer who produces the grain. We maintain personal relationships with farmers from across the country and make an effort to visit their farms. Together, we ensure that we’re offering the best product available, while always using best practices.
ENSURING CERTIFIED ORGANIC, WHOLE GRAIN GOODNESS
We often hear the question from our customers, ‘What does organic really mean?’ It is, simply, a label assigned to foods that are produced without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers, and that do not contain genetically modified organisms (more commonly known as GMOs). Organic food production also supports farming methods that are deemed environmentally sound.
We’re proud to offer one of the largest lines of organic, whole grain foods in the country. When you see the ‘USDA Organic’ label on our products, you’ll know that to earn that label, Bob’s Red Mill had to complete a rigorous certification process through the USDA’s National Organic Program.”

“Whey Protein Concentrate is a high quality,complete protein with all of the essential amino acids. Dissolves instantly. Excellent for protein drinks and baking.”

About:
“Hemp seeds are one of nature’s best sources for plant-based protein. Containing all of the essential amino acids the body needs, our hemp protein powder is a perfect boost to your morning. Try adding hemp protein powder to your smoothies, shakes and yogurt, or use hemp protein to replace up to 25% of the flour in a baked good.
Bob’s Red Mill Protein Review
Organic, powdered proteins are a part of my everyday diet. They are sure and quick way to ingest a dose of protein on-the-go, without compromising the quality of the food I’m eating. I am always open to trying new, organic proteins and was happy to discover that Bob’s Red Mill makes whey & hemp protein. My family has used various Bob’s Red Mill products in recent years, mainly the flaxseed, coconut flour, almond flour and gluten free baking mixes.
Many of Bob’s Red Mill products are certified organic, but I’ve recently learned that these two proteins are not. That was a little discouraging to learn–after usually looking at this brand in a very positive light. These proteins are, however, both non-gmo.
Taste-wise, both proteins taste pretty bland (to be expected). I’ve found that adding liquid vanilla stevia to my protein shake helps add some flavor and sweetness.
When I construct these ratings, I have to consider everything that I’ve tried. In this case, I know of many organic hemp protein brands and many organic whey protein brands. Unfortunately, this leaves these two Bob’s Red Mill products in the dust. If the day were to come that Bob’s held these two products to a higher standard (organic), I would surely be on board with them. Until then, I’ll have to seek other brands for my dally protein.
