Taste		At first I didn't really like the taste
Taste		Sometimes I wanna drink it just because of the taste.


Taste		Great natural protein with a pleasant light taste.
Taste		Decent taste when mixed with water
Taste		but my favorite was to mix a scoop with a little bit of unsweetened almond milk to make a brownie batter tasting pudding.
Mixes well		Decent taste when mixed with water


Taste		It's not too sweet and doesn't taste artificial at all.
Taste		This one tastes pretty mild by itself and also tastes great if you dress it up with fruit or peanut butter in a blender.
Taste		It's the perfect, well-rounded protein powder for those with sensitive taste buds.


Taste		Mixes pretty well, it tastes similar to hot cocoa without sugar.
Taste		I really dont care what it tastes like, just the affects.

Texture		You definitely get used to the taste, and because the powder is finely ground, it has the texture of water.

Taste		I love just mixing the chocolate protein with water right after a workout, and have found that the taste is much better than the overly-sweet Splenda using products.

Taste		but have bought the vanilla and the strawberry and they are also quite tasty.


Texture		but as far as taste and texture, it is not very good.
Texture		No matter how little water I put in it, it does not get thick like most other protein powers I've had.
Texture		however it is good to add to fruit smoothies.

Taste		It also does not have a lot of taste,


Taste		Would definitely recommend, works just as it says it does, and also easy to drink as the flavor was surprisingly better then i expected since i've never bought a vanilla protein powder.


Taste		I was worried about buying the NATURAL Whey because I'd read mixed review about the taste.
Taste		I've been mixing it with soy milk and it's VERY delicious.

Taste		Taste is great with a little choc soy milk for added protein and some carbs for refueling and it mixes rather easily.

Value for money		Great tasting and good price, mixes well, nice and smooth,


Taste		The taste is bland and the product leaves a feeling of a coating on my tongue.


Texture		Tastes even better than the regular double rich, if mixed thick it's like a morning breakfast shake such as instant carnations.

Taste		Tastes good with water and excellent with milk!

Taste		It is a great chocolate flavor without an overwhelming sweetness.
Taste		I recommend it to anyone looking for a good natural tasting protein powder without all the additives.
