I've tried blending cooked eggs in the past and it comes out with tiny bits in the shake, I didn't like it
Yeah, according to dietary guidelines for heart health the cholesterol from around four or five whole eggs per week is good for you. But when I'm bulking I eat around 42 egg whites a week in my post workout shakes.
mirin bulk
Please define "mirin"?

The yolk has some protein but all the cholesterol and all the fat. The white is pure protein. Each egg white is around 3 - 3.5 grams of pure, high quality protein. For a 70 - 80 gram protein drink (i.e. two post-workout serves) the best thing to do is to hard boil a dozen eggs. Allow to cool. Shell (usually easier when cooled) and remove the hard yolks to produce 36 - 42 gms pure egg protein. Then blender the hell out 'em with 200 gms low-fat cottage cheese (at around 14% protein this provides 28 gms) and 200 ml skim milk (6 gm protein) for the cheapest, most biologically complete protein shake you'll ever make. Much better and cheaper than concentrated whey (which is just a milk product anyway) with a great low-fat, creamy texture. Why not save money by buying eggs and cottage cheese in bulk, and blending and freezing for later use? Add bananas for taste and carbs.
BTW, don't waste your time eating raw eggs, few humans digest the un-denatured protein properly and there is a real risk of salmonella poisoning.
I dont think cheaper than WPI. A dozen eggs are $3-5 depending on what you buy for 36-42 grams of protein, to get the same amount of WPI protein is about 75 cents. And save the hassle of boiling and cooling and peeling.
the eggs will also have other nutrients we need
but powder has the convenience factor.
Amazing
amazing that we have to spell shit out for some ppl?
OldManMuscle has learned something today. I haven't bought protein powder for decades but man it's become cheap. It used to be a major rippoff but I guess there's a lot more competition and sales these days. So at my local hypermart today I bought a 3kg tub of 80% protein for just $114. That's 2400 grams or around 100 small serves! I'm not buying cottage cheese for the dairy source in my post-workout shakes anymore.
And eggs. Yep, it's half as expensive to buy the frozen egg whites than the equivalent amount of whole fresh eggs. And no hassle with shelling the little fuckers. So, I'll be rounding out my whey-based protein shake with about 10 grams of microwaved egg whites.
On the other hand, brocolli is around $8/kg! (not that I'd ever put that in a protein shake ...)
