      Sorry if this is a stupid question but why not? I thought they were essential?

      Its essentially food, not something magical. Use it to hit your macros.

      I find it very difficult to consume my daily protein intake because I'm not the guy who buys the food so I just eat what's in the house which unfortunately doesn't mean a lot of high protein foods.

      Thus, I consume protein shake 2/3 times a day even though they taste like ****.

      Essential? God, no.

      They're just a processed food that's high in protein. There are numerous other foods, many of which are whole or minimally processed, that are high in protein and that, to me, taste a heck of a lot better than protein shakes.

      ^^^ The result of supplement companies spending millions of dollars to fool people into thinking their crap is "essential."

      1-2 times a day. I LOAD on protein after my workouts. 20 mins after my workout I will make my homemade weight gainer shake (scoop of whey, 2 tablespoons of peanut butter, 1 banana, 1 cup of oats) THEN I will make a high cal, high protein meal and devour it.
