Taste		All flavors are delicious too!
Value for money		My only complaint is that it's been getting more expensive.


Taste		Great taste, bad taste.
Taste		But I will be honest and tell you guys that this protein shake has one of the WORST tastes I have tasted.
Value for money		Try it as you may, its very cheap, and for the price its one of the those shakes you might want to have just in case your regular protein runs out, and you need to wait for the order to come in...

Gas or bloating	The protein just does not work well with breaking down in the system, and usually will give me a very bloated feeling.
Diarrhea	Try it as you may, its very cheap, and for the price its one of the those shakes you might want to have just in case your regular protein runs out, and you need to wait for the order to come in...


Taste		Not only have all the flavors I've tried been delicious (personally Chocolate Malt is my favorite), they have been instrumental in all my bodily endeavors.


Texture		It doesn't taste chalky or medicinal at all, it tastes like strawberry milk (when i mixed it with water!).

Taste		The only thing is, it does not maintain its flavor.
Taste		I put it in the fridge in a water bottle overnight so i could grab it on my way out the door the next morning and it tasted horrible after it had been sitting for hours.


Texture		Crapy flavor system and chalky

Taste		Both taste great and I personally mix my own blend of the two that tastes incredible.
Recovery ability		ON 100% Whey protein has all the amino acids necessary for proper muscle recover and building, along with a very high amount of top end whey.


Taste		Great tasting, mixes great and pretty cheap!
Mixes well		Great tasting, mixes great and pretty cheap!

Muscle gain		I have gained 15 lbs using this protein, over a period of 3 months.
Taste		The taste is still amazing even after several months of having it.


Texture		Second the taste is very good it taste just like a real good milk shake/smoothie when your mix it with skim milk, plus no calories and no sugar and more other stuff you can go with out.
Taste		Very effective drink, one of the best protein supplements, for value,taste and accomplishments defiantly values in those three.

Value for money		you can't beat the price for the amount of protein your getting which is good because you don't want to waste 100 bucks for 5 pounds of protein.


Taste		BUY IT NOW!!!! Best Protien, Best Price, Best taste!

Taste		The protein tastes great much better than the GNC and body fortress brands.
Value for money		This product is one of the cheaper national brands.


Taste		You can use a blender shaker because it easily mixes together, moretasty with skim milk,

Taste		this was a limited edition flavor dont think you can get it any more
Taste		The flavor is also great which i used to think didnt matter that much
Taste		but after you have a supplement that taste good and works you wont settle for just working anymore.


Taste		I was surprised at how good this flavor was.
Taste		On par with the double rich chocolate as far as taste.
Taste		If you don't like toffee this protein powder probably won't taste great to you.
Mixes well		It is made by Optimum so it mixes well.


Taste		tastes ok, mixes great and definetly works well.
