They're frankly not that high in calories and super expensive. The "gaining powders" are also a total ripoff because they're simply 80% Dextrose or Maltodextrin. Save your $50 and go buy a giant bag of dextrose/malt at a beer brewing store for pennies on the dollar.....or just use sugar. It's all it is: a $50 container of sugar.
Heavy cream would blow away any whey or weight powder for fat gain. And taste ions better, too.

The cream is way too hard on me, I get never-ending diarrhea and indigestion/heartburn.
That's fare. It's something you need to escalate daily starting with only 1/4 cup. Like many new foods, its hard on the IT until your body becomes accustomed to breaking it down.
But regarding protein powder, as a guy who spends over a grand a year on whey protein, I'm telling you it's a waste of money if you're tying to get fat. A big scoop of whey isolate is only 90cal and you're paying $50 for a container if it. A tiny tablespoon of vegetable oil has 50% more calories than that; go eat some tasty fried food for a fraction of the cost.
I'd be hard pressed to think of a more expensive, least fattening food than whey protein!
