Best Protein Powder Under $50

Every product below has a recorded retailer price under $50 — enough headroom to include bigger tubs that a strict $30 cutoff would exclude. They're ranked by protein per dollar, not price, since a bigger container is only a better deal if it actually delivers more protein for the money.
