Taste		But with that being said, its relative inexpensiveness gives light to the taste (ok) and the pitfalls of not being able to mix with milk at all.
Mixes well		The good: The protein easily mixes in water with the tumbler I got for free with my order; 10 lbs. of protein is a helping that lasts; sturdy bag which was needed because the box when it was received looked like it was dropped from the Space Needle in Seattle; great price!
Value for money		but for the price it's a true winner.
