How’s the taste, I thought I once heard Dorian stuff taste like caca. But hey if the quality is noticeably better then that’s not an issue

Posted by: PreMier

Dorians and Syntrax are both higher quality. They taste fine, but with the higher quality, comes a higher price.

maybe true but i still think they have good indgredients. as long as it has 23g of protein a serving and it's one of the cheapest i'm good with it.

also, nitro-tech tastes like shit and it's one of if not the most expensive proteins. nobody should ever buy it.

Posted by: PreMier

If you like Optimum, try their Pro Complex, or their After Max. They are also better quality than the 100% whey.

Posted by: titans1854

pro complex looks pretty good but i still have a 10 lb of optimum and a 4 lb. thing of nasty ass nitro-tech that my parents bought for me on accident or something.

Posted by: scottrtrout

Pro V 60 by Labrada is a good blend and tasts great!

Posted by: odin52

AST VP2, probably there best product. next to their prohormones hahahaha.

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

I'll make another poll in a week or so to reflect these new choices. Syntrax was included because someone mentioned it and there is at least 1 or 2 people who seem to be sponsored by it on these boards.
for those people who chose other; keep posting your selection so that i can include in the next poll.

thanks,

Been using 100% Whey.

Is there a difference between 100% Whey and GNC's version?

Posted by: zenith

sorry but the king of protien has got to be bio actvator from lamuscle nothing beats the flavours they have for it i love the coconut and tropical one NOW THATS A PROTIEN SHAKE !

Posted by: once was fat

For me and I might be all alone on this one. Pro Rated. 19 dollars for 6 pounds at costco. You can not find a better deal without using cupons. The taste is ok for the price.

Agh, I was going to try allthewhey and forgot to order from them last time. I'm going to have to order some this weekend I think.

Posted by: titans1854

does allthewhey chocolate taste good? it's even cheaper than optimum.

Posted by: Premo55

Dymatize Supreme Whey Protein....best-tasting protein on the market. Interactive Absolute Whey is great if you want a natural product that has no fillers, maltodextrins or other artificial ingredients (save for stevia leaf). Omega is great price-wise. IsoFlex (forgot the brand) is great as well, a blend of egg albumen, whey isolate/concentrate, soy isolate and casein, nice blend. I like Biotest's Low carb Grow as well, performance and taste wise.

Peace.

Optimum IMO is a little tough to choke down after about 4 lbs of it.
WHY do you say the quality is not good????
There's a brand around here called IronTek and their "Vanilla Cake" is prob the best tasting vanilla I've had. The only thing that worries me about brands I haven't heard of is accuracy (If it says 21g is it really? or is it 15g?)

good point. designer whey is 22 grams out of 32 gram serving so about 68% protein whereas Champion Nutrition is 26/ 32 for about 81% protein. most of them are about 68-60% by weight. i don't know what the label says on optimum nutrition.

whether the protein in the bottle is what it says it is on the label or the quality is always up for grabs.

I think that the better tasting stuff is almost always a little lower in percentage protein in order to get the great flavor.

Posted by: I'm Trying

ON's Pro Complex Choc is Damn good. I think it's better then their normal whey Protein.
Thanks!!

Posted by: BabsieGirl

Protein by Syntrax

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

seems that people are choosing among the following lines
1. taste
2, price
3. protein quality.

the first two are kind of easy to figure out while the last one depends on the label and the integrity of the company.

looks like a couple of the choices are not going to be on the next poll.
thanks

I think Cytodyne's CytoPro is the best for taste and quality. It is a little pricey, but worth it.

WORD to that! ON Pro Complex is my favorite powder. It's loaded with vitamins and glutamine peptides, which the whey does not have (as far as I know, anyway).

Syntax Nectar is also very good, and certainly does taste better than any otehr powder I've used.

I've got a 4.4 lb tub of Pro Complex and four various tubs of Syntrax in my cabinet right now.

I are baboon;

under your name is the statement " on a beer bulk "
with all the hoopla about the atkins diet, i figured that it would be the low carb beer.

these low carb beer are a little thin for my liking but I am giving them a try for a while.

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

12 people have chosen other for their favorite protein yet only 8 other choices were listed.

keep em coming- i'll take the top 5 or 6 from this list and add 4 or 5 from the "other " list next month!

thanks ppl!

If you're going to drink beer, drink it RIGHT.

I've been trying the HSN protiens. I like them. 17.5/22 for 79% protien, and 18/22 for 81%. Only comes in chocolate, but it taste good. Hopefully, Vanilla will come soon

Posted by: iMan323

I just got my first order of Optimum Nutrition Double Chocolate. I don't think I've ever been happier about something that I can drink (well except that time when I got a bottle of Glenlivet for 15 bux), but this protein is THE SHIT. It tastes like Nestlie Diet Hot Chocolate. This is the first protein in powdered form that I like. AND I F--KING HATE PROTEIN POWDER.!! Plus the bag is SO HUGE AND SO CHEAP THAT ITS ALMOST UNREAL. I LOVE IT...

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

funny about optimum nutrition. prolab is far more popular up here in canada than most if not all of the other powders listed. at least in terms of what the stores carry. maybe i will make the switch over to optimum if I can find it

Posted by: Pierzin

Optimum's protein tears up my insides unless I mix it with Muscle Milk. Which is what I do now so I can use up the 10# bag I have!
Is the Procomplex easier to take?

If you're gonna bulk, what else you gonna use? Can you beat calorie count per serving, with milk - 638!! 32g. protein.

What about Prolab Enlarge 2? or does that count as a protein powder?

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

Dear FP Genius,

Pro Complex- don't know
bulk- eat more carbs, peanuts cashews,
calorie- add peanut butter, bananas, dollop heavy cream protein powder . cereal cream about 1200 calores. take 2x /day along with regular meals
Prolab Enlarge 2.- although it has protein, it is not a protein powder in the same league as the other ones. it must be at least 67% protein. so in a 25 gram serving- we are looking at 16-18 grams protein minimum. with 7 grams carbs *( at most ) hopefully to as little as 2 grams .

weight gainers are convenient but at a high price to protein ratio. the bucket these things came in though is usually nice and can hold plenty of beer bottle caps though. so that 's a good thing

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

bought some sci tec protein powder today. extreme whey. vanilla, it used Equal sweetener. tastes funny kind of like burnt vanilla. but i mix it with oatmeal so it's fine.

Posted by: nR_Kris

myoplex and optimum nutrition i take them both and works fine with me (kinda expensive thou i finish the box and the 5lbs bottle in 1 1/2 or less =P)

do you mix them together at the same time or do you take them separately?

Posted by: Greasebag

isopure is the only protein I can take indefinitley without getting my stomach all f'd up. PLUS the stuff mixes THIN. It doesnt get all thick and nasty like so many others. choc & vanilla are good.

Posted by: PreMier

I like it when its thick, like cake batter!

Posted by: nR_Kris

i take one shake of optimum in the morning and after my workout i take myoplex

Posted by: Pierzin

MM,
Right on. I generally stay away from anything which says 'weight gainers'. Yeah, and I'm hip to the heavy cream in my shakes too.
Sometimes, that's about the only way I'll get my recommended daily fat intake. thanks.

Im giving the VP2 protein a try today. I believe its probably the highest quality protein on the market, but also costs a bit more.

Posted by: PreMier

VP2..? What is this? Link...

Posted by: camarosuper6

VP2 by AST.

http://www.ast-ss.com/Products/Produ....asp?ProdID=26

Its been dubbed as maybe the best protein you can buy.

Posted by: PreMier

Ok, I searched it a bit. Dorians Pro Peptide is more expensive, but it is a blend. This is just an isolate. Sounds interresting though. I may try some. Oh, and dont buy it from that site... they charge too much

Posted by: camarosuper6

Yea, its a good isolate

I buy from massnutrition, I havent found better prices anywhere else.

Posted by: camarosuper6

BTW, people have told me that I seem to favor AST supplements. The reason for this is because I can actually read the articles, see the research, and I know the company is reputable. I'm quite picky with what I put my money into, and when I can see that the company I'm investing in has science to back their products, not to mention many helpful articles and further research, I tend to put more trust in them. I have NOT been dissapointed in any of their products thus far. The same goes with Optimum Nutrition.

Posted by: atherjen

My choices:

Allmax Isoflex- in chocolate
Sans Infusion-in both choc pb and vanilla caramel
Biotest's Low carb Grow- in chocolate(havent tried the vanilla)

next to try is NX Care's IsoXP in caramel.

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

i can't find this isopure up here in canada.
allmax Isoflex- never heard of it.
Sans- can't find it
BioTest- can't find it.

Looks like I will have to update my list for this month's favorite protein poll.

Posted by: mousie

I used to take Universal's Milk and Egg for about 5-6 months, and it was awesome. It was like dessert for me! Then, I got off of bodybuilding, and when I tried getting back into the sport, the protein was nasty. I felt like barfing whenever I had a shake. I would try again if they didn't only have vanilla for a flavor! Now I take Optimum's Egg protein (Chocolate) which is really good. I don't take whey anymore because I felt weak when taking it.

Posted by: Monolith

plus their new low carb whey looks promising.

you can favor AST products all you like. you can even shamelessly promote AST products non stop on these threads ( or until Prince bans you- no wait- its the other people that ban their members_). You can even hawk their products as a promotion gimmick in the hopes that AST will send you free stuff.

You can shill any product you like to your hearts content! Just don't expect people to pay too much attention.

After a time of reading endless positive comments ( ALl GOOD, NO BAD!!!) and shameless self promotion, people tend to tune it all out. Then the only hope for these shills is for them to hook the new people to the boards. but, hey, it's all good!

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

i bought a bottle of matrix - chocolate . it's a combination of micellar casein, whey isolate, concentrate. one of these long lasting and short acting protein powders.
as usual the taste is pretty good.
anyone else using one of these multi protein powders? do you find that they are worth the extra money?

Posted by: PreMier

I am going to try out the Nuclear Nutrition product soon. Dorians is a multiple protein powder. Yes, they are worth the money. Without the proper, and highest quality building blocks, how do you expect to build the best foundation?

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

nuclear nutrition- Trevor Smith ( RIP )
chemical Nutrition ?- Dorian Yates Pro Peptide

which one u talking about?

Posted by: PreMier

What do you mean? Here is Dorians HERE.

I have used the pro peptide, but will be switching to Trevors protein the next time I buy.

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

you wrote that you are going to try Nuclear Nutrition yet in the next sentence you wrote about Dorian Yates protein powder. so it wasn't clear which one you were talking about. now it seems thatyou are currently using pro peptide and are switching over to nuclear Nutrtion's protein powder.

Two problems with Pro peptide: almost impossible to find local ( although you can find it on internet ) and the price is rather steep. I cannot justify the expense.

i wonder what will happen to Nuclear nutrition. Was Trevor Smith so deeply involved in all aspects of the business that his death ends the company as well? or will customers stop buying the products since he is now dead? it's a shame either way.

Posted by: PreMier

I think his wife will take over. I know I will buy the product. And yes, I have used Pro peptide before. I am currently using ON because of the sale in Jan at bulknutrition. I bought 10Lbs lol.

ex-wife... strange how this story goes. i am not comparing Trevor Smith to Kurt Cobain yet both of these men were tormented souls who apparently committed suicide ( leaving the door open for the conspiracy theorists out there who wish to believe the Love or someone else pulled the trigger ) leaving their wife to carry on. If this is true with Trevor Smith's case, then it will be even more odd as i have read elswhere that the divorce papers were signed the previous evening with respect to Trevor and his wife.

sale? damn. i missed it again.

Posted by: PreMier

So is it official? He did commit suicide? From the boards that someone posted in the thread in the anabolic section(maybe you) they said that it wasnt suicide... but that he had a bad infection, and were doing an otopsy

Yea, the divorce papers were sighned right before his passing...
And the sale was for 7$ off every bag of ON 10Lbs.

suicide: you are right. no one knows for sure. pure speculation at this point.

sale: i will wait for the next sale to pop up then get 20 pounds of the stuff. i have enough to hold me over for a couple of months.

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

i was going to post a new poll regarding protein preference yet it seems that the choices are all over the place. the only consensus is that optimum nutrition 100% whey is the most popular. the people that chose "other" listed 14 different protein products as being their choice.
someone in another thread mentioned that Optimum Nutrition's 100% whey has been tested ( by the competition no less ) and has come out as having exactly what the label says! so perhaps that has something to do with it being the number one choice. That and the fact that most places are pretty much giving it away..
so i'll wait for more responses.

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

hello andy,
you misunderstand the post. we aren't listing the best place to buy the protein powders but which protein powder is the most popular. By most popular, most people are using best price as the gauge.
you do however, bring up a good point: where is the best place to buy the protein powder you prefer. Costco is one such place, GNC is another and then the online stores. That is another poll, probably already done. search the site

perhaps costco has come out with it's own house brand protein powder. i was not aware of that if this is what you meant. if so, it's all good.

not one person has mentioned a twinlab protein powder. since this company went bankrupt( then bought by Tony Robbins and company ), not much has been heard about them. in the 80's and early 90's , twinlab was the cat's ass! seems like quite a fall.

Posted by: PreMier

I used to use their glycerol fuel. It is kinda hard to find twinlab products that are up to par now, if even finding them at all... They need better advertising, and a new logo.

I thought they stoped maken that? From what I've been told if you can get 100% Vegetable Glycerine it's basicly the same thing. A friend of mine tried it and said it was about the same.

Posted by: PreMier

I use the glycerol fuel made by scifit now. As far as I know, twinlab did stop making it. I like it post w/o with my creatine and ala.

I love both ON and Syntrax. I think Syntrax has got ON on blended protein. I got vanilla procomplex and it tastes bad

Posted by: nikegurl

i should find out the exact one....but one time in a jam i bought a chocolate protein powder from max muscle and OHMYGOSH it was so incredibly delicious. i'd crave shakes.

problem was - no online discount pricing so the container cost double what i normally spend. but it was really really good.

i like sportpharma & optimum for being affordable and good quality. i like syntrax nectars b/c they're good quality and a really nice change of pace.

i heard the sour apple and peach ones were good too.

I take 3 powders.

1. On Pro Complex vanilla since this tastes mixed best with orange juice and fruit.
2. EAS Precission Protein because its the best post workout.
3 ON Eggwhite chocolate. Its great as a "bedtime cocoa".

Posted by: TrojanMan60563

ON 100% Whey is the shiznit. Taste great, has all the key ingredients...topshelf protein

Posted by: Lord Denning

REFLEX natural whey!!! Ive read many a post about peoples fear of the dangers of artificial sweeteners. Most of the above listed protein powders are sweetened with some form of artificial sweeteners.
If you are looking for a good protein powder which is free from ANY artificial sweeteners and you cannot get hold of ON natural whey (i.e. you live in the UK) go with REFLEX.

I too love AST. By far the most reputable and respected company here in the Northeast part of The States. I've used many of their products, everything from thermo fat-burner Dymatedrine Extreme (RIP ephedra

) to prohormones (19-Nor-3Andro) to multi-vitamin to their VP2 Protein. I've never been disappointed, and I feel that their product is definatly worth their price. AST puts alot of research behind their product, and with everything they put out, they back with scientific journal documentation.

For all of you serious about fitness, who haven't heard about AST, I recommend you all check it out.

i have to wonder if the general consumer ( one that doesn't know mike or really care ) is really going to be concerned about this. the person standing at the other side of the counter sees the 10 pound bag of Optimum at 47 bucks and Brand X 10 lb bag at 53.99. He or she doesn't care how much a reaming Mike got from ON. (s)he buys the cheaper one. 6 times out of 10. Few customers care how much the store owner paid for the product being sold. just as long as the retail price is low- they don't concern themselves with the store owners worries.
1500 bucks is a lot of coin to choke down; have to feel sorry from mike at bulk nutrition. i can't see him dumping ON though.

Posted by: PreMier

He already picked up a new protein product. I however will never buy ON again. I like Mike, and what they did was wrong. Allthewhey.com is cheaper, and it tastes great. So I will support them, along with various other companies.

Well hook me up with these companies you do biznez with, my brother. I also dont like supporting biotch companies.

Posted by: PreMier

www.allthewhey.com I am currently using their isolate. Its pretty tasty too.
www.bulknutrition.com I buy from Mike still, just not ON's products. I also want to try some of Nuclear nutritions products, but I am a bit strapped for cash at the moment.

i must agree AST VP2 is the best. We retail this prodct and it is one of our best sellers. The company are exellent to deal with and the web site is full of info.
Yes it is a isolate AST do not make a blend any more, they used to make Vyo pro and AST was the first company to bring whey protein to the bodybuilding world in 1992. All products are a copy of this.
VP2 stands for Vyo pro 2.
Try using VP2 and Nytro pro 40 the gains are great.
And of course you can always find a product cheaper in our retail store we always sell below our web price if poss.

If you were in the UK you could visit our retail store with pleasure and happily discuss why I will recommend AST products over other brands.
Supplements are part of my business but we do not send any orders international thus there is no incentive to spend any of my time on any forums recommending AST or any other company. We will only supply our firearms, knives, swords and martial art products for international sales.
AST is only 1 of about 90 brands that I deal with. I own the company and I am free to deal with any supplier who will supply products to the UK that are made in EEC approved plants. No company that we deal with gives any form of incentive to sell its products (if a company did I would question the reason why? I would rather give good advice on products than make a big profit on a sale e.g. Cell tech + Nitro tech really easy to sell but naff goods. If I know a product will really work you get results from it you will be happy to buy from me again and repeat custom and recommendation is what real trade is all about.)
We do get free samples of new products but to retail these we have to pay the wholesale price for the full size product. I simply think that AST products give the best results from the brands that we have access to in the UK, why should I use an inferior product when I have access to better ones. Thank you for asking if I get any kickback. I am happy to clarify the situation.

Since i joined this forum i have been useing all the whey , after advice of prince, I am in canada and with shipping fee's it still the sheaps i can find. It doesn't taste as chcolaty as the last i had bought but i am happy cause it has less sugure in it, this whay i can choice if i want carbs with my shake or not, it leave me more options with the same protein jar.

Any one agree with this or it is better to have blends with carb and blends with no card.

thanks for any advice.

allthewhey get my vote for now.

I didnt read throuhg the 4 pages of this thread so im not sure if it was listed or not, but i really enjoy the taste of that Simply Gain stuff by EAS. Its like a protein/creatine combo. The vanilla form tastes almost like a mcdonalds milk shake and it doenst leave that flemmy aftertaste that feels like theres goo in your throat.

$36 for 2 lbs. ouch!!
I take power whey stack chocolate flavor and pay $38 for 7 lbs. It also tastes good in the chocolate flavor.

Posted by: ripped ict

power whey stack by F&F distributers.

Not widley known. Mix the strawberry just right and you have ice cream, well when you are dieting it tastes like ice cream.

Posted by: timt

Thanks I was wondering how there strawberry flavor was I might have to go ahead and give it a try. How do you mix it right to get the almost icecream flavor

Posted by: Gena Marie

I really like EAS Whey protein. It is very chocolatey. I now mix half with All-the-whey. Less calories.

Just to point out the obvious: as opposed to the countless, endless and mind-numbing threads about nectar or swole ( are people who shill Swole called "assSWOLEs" ) or the Syntrax company in general, it is NOT A MAJOR PLAYER. unless you think that 6% or so is a great number. so, the continuing threads, new and bumped about Syntrax products certainly begs the question as to in what reality these people are dwelling.
These people will be the first to say that they are not being influenced by Adverts but will admit,: i read nothing but positive things on a website ". not realizing that its just another crock of shit ad.
of course, since there is no level to which scum won't stoop, a flurry of hucksters will flood the sites with another round.
they are not even selling the sizzle let alone the steak! they are selling " psstt.. hey buddy wanna buy a watch ?"

just another assSWOLE in the making...

It is new out nad is called XP 45. It has 45 grams of protein and only 1 gram of carbs if mixed with water. Vanilla is best...taste pretty good.

Hello to all,

I just wanted to say that I think Cytosport's Muscle Milk tastes great (even with water). I've tried Banana Cream, Vanilla Cream, Cookies and Cream, Orange Cream, Pina Colada, Rocky Road and Chocalte Cream and would recommend them to anyone. And at 17.51/15 serving container and 23.74/20 packet box, I'm happy with the price.

Posted by: aggies1ut

With an avg. of 18 grams of fat per serving, Muscle Milk better taste good LOL.

Definitely the chocolate from Solid Whey. http://www.allsportsnutrition.com

About $32 - 36 dollars for 10 lbs.

Posted by: MarcusMaximus

i have been to that site. the price is great but since i prefer vanilla, i am always concerned about the taste. some vanilla protein powders tasted as if they were burnt. people who have encountered that taste know what i am talking about. so most people choose choc as it's a safe bet ( as stated by mudge ). so , have you tried the vanilla?

Posted by: trHawT

Yes, the vanilla was excellent, too. Just mix it with skim milk. It's weird. The vanilla tastes like shit with water, but the chocolate tastes fine in water. I think both are equal in skim milk.

All the whey, I would like to change my vote. I can't beleive how easy it disolves, it's cheap... it's kinda sweet tasting.....(even the isolates.)

I'm still trying different things but currently I like anything "Isopure"... Little expensive if you go to the store but who the hell does that. Ebay

I was told to say away from ion exchange (Isopure) by a couple of pros. One article I found was http://www.nutraceuticalsworld.com/marapr99-b8.htm . What do you think?

For those of you using BSL L/C whey or WPC-80, what protein will you move towards next now that BSL is limiting their products? I've tried the trueprotein.com flavoring systems and they are pretty good. I was thinking of True Protein or even All The Whey. Of course, I thankfully have a ways to go before I run out of my BSL protein.

As far as flavor goes. I think it is the best tasting. Beats nitrotech any day and is half the price, even though it only has 18 g of protein per serving(24g).

I had some called Amplify by NDS their cookies and cream was better with water than any other protien powder Ive ever had

ON's whey protein is my favorite. It tastes pretty average, but it sure is nice being able to mix it with just a spoon.

I HATE clumpy shakes.

Posted by: cman

I would just like to find one that does not hurt my stomache.

Posted by: Stratosphere

I have only tried GNC's and On's 100% whey, but of the two ON's Vanilla 100% Whey kicks GNC's ass! not only does it give more grams of protein per serving, but it tastes way of a hell lot better.

Other for me too I guess...

Posted by: FishOrCutBait

Hey, im all out of ON's 100% right now, and Im having to use my mom's Designer Whey, and it is giving me gas like no other!! ARRGGH!!

ON's 100% ALL DE WAY BABY!!

I worked for Natures Best ( Dynamic nutrition) and I'll tell you don't buy isopure. We never used the same type or source for the Isopure. Their corporate office in New York would buy bulk amounts of whey once a year form who ever had the cheepest price. And they would never tell the consumer of the changes.

I would recommend that if some of you guys havent tried All The Whey in a while to try it out again...they have alot new flavors and I have had NO stomach problems whatsoever and it disolves in water just fine, and it tastes good too. I have always been an O.N. man but I took a gamble (so to speak) and tried ATW and its very good. For my money it will continue to be ATW from now on. I bought 25lbs at the bulk price and it was about 17bucks per 5lbs...cheap!

I used to preach and consume ON whey...Til it gave me gas and i stumble onto bodybuilding.com.....And that web is sponsored by At large Nutrition, I decide to give it a try. Nitrean whey..It's the best for lactose intolerant people and will give you lilttle to no gas discomfort...I dont work for them but i thought i share the pros'....is a little expensive than ON...but you should try it....

Posted by: Phred

I have been using ON vanilla and double chocolate. I am not happy with the taste. ATW vanilla and chocolate were better tasting to me. I have like, 25lbs left of ON. I will be buying some ATW to mix with the ON to see if I can stomach the ON. BTW, ON mixes well, however, ATW mixes better. (for me anyway).

You need to try HDT Pro blend 55 -

(unless you have Splenda issues)

Posted by: TrojanMan60563

I forget who makes it but the 12 hour protein that is out there in the blue bottle is hella good...the chocolate one anyways. Its good with skim milk blended up...love it..just too expensive...I can get ON 100% whey for $45 for 10lbs no shipping costs etc....its best deal for me and I love the double chocolate.

ive been using mega whey by GNC, vanilla flavored i usually mix it with a little ice cream and milk

tastes pretty damn good

the optimum nutrition seems alot cheaper though, i might try that out after im done with my 4 lbs of GNC,
has anyone tried the tropical punch? it sounds pretty good but then again who knows

thanks

Posted by: Never2Cut

Iron Tek Essential natural, i've gone through two tubs of the banana and one of the cookies and cream. Tastes great to me and is a mix of why and MPI. Tastes great and good price. I can pick it up at a local supp store for $27. So its a damn good deal for me.

Posted by: shiek49

I've always used ISS research whey matrix (vanilla). I've never tried anything else, so I can't compare... but it tastes good to me. Has anyone else tried this... should I try something different? I'm not a big fan of chocolate.

Posted by: MAC33

Personally, I prefer Probolic-SR by MHP. I always loved MHP products and this protien actually tastes good. Like with GNC's protein and stuff I would have to practically force my self to drink it because I couldn't stand the taste nor the texture of it. But Probolic-SR actually tastes good. So far I have used chocolate and cookies n' cream. I liked them both but I definately prefer cookies n' cream because it's like it actually has little tiny bits of cookie, or atleast things that resemble the cookie crumb stuff that you would find in a cookies and cream milkshake. Ah milkshakes, haven't had one in soooo long. I remember that before I knew anything about bodybuilding or biochemistry or any of that, like when I was a wee little kid, I use to think milk shakes were good for you cause they had milk in them.

Posted by: carter26

I have tried GNC's MegaWhey, 100 % Whey and Nitro Tech. None of them taste as good as Muscle Milk. over 20 differnet flavors, but I cant get off the Peanut Butter and Chocolate. Mix with milk...mmm. It is almost an "all-in-one" drink. It is a protein and creatine drink.

I took a loooong break from taking protein anything shakes. I tell ya I didn't miss it! lol.

When I finally got back, someone introduced me to Muscle Milk. Maaannnn, it was love at first taste. ;-)

I think the reason people get good results from it is because of the taste.. people don't mind gulping it down more than once or twice a day.. compared to a bad tasting shakes where it's a struggle just thinking of gulping it down.

I've seen this at Costco, but didn't have the guts to get a huge bag if it tasted horrible.

I'm always on a pretty tight budget, so for me I go with Dymatize or Optimum Nutrition. I'll drink any flavor to.
