If you're a vegetarian it's largely made of arse — getting enough protein means you'll be living on eggs.
Whey powder dissolved in skim milk is strangely not-bad, I've been finding. Also works for lacto-vegetarians. (In my case it was that, after a bunch of times coming back from the gym and then an hour or so later realizing I'd guzzled the better part of a gallon of milk, I figured I could make that more efficient. I have however carefully avoided the blinged-out protein powders in favor of boring, minimally-decorated, unflavored whey.)
If you're vegan, Ferriss recommends various horribly unappealing protein shakes which are widely considered to have the taste and texture of cardboard poo.
