Mixes well		but it tastes great and mixes easily... and ive have gained weight since drinking it...
Recovery ability		but ohnestly you should always have protein powder... its vital for recovery and growth... so try this one...
Value for money		This is a great powder... a little on the expensive side...


Taste		Taste great with milk.
Taste		It's great tasting and offers a lot of vitamins and minerals in it.


Taste		The best tasting protein powder that I have ever tried.


Taste		High quality protein, high amount of protein (24 a scoop) and the taste is above average.
Taste		That might be skewed some though because the 10lbs have limited flavors and the double rich chocolate was not my preferred choice.
Value for money		Great value 177 servings for $80 i think is what i paid.
Value for money		Still, good enough for the value.


Taste		Mixes great, tastes great.
Mixes well		Mixes great, tastes great.
Value for money		Good value too!


Taste		Tastes great, works great.
Value for money		Good price for the amount as well.


Taste		I've tried a few protein powders over the years and honestly, none has come close to ON 100% Whey for both taste and price (you can't beat either!).
Taste		The Banana Cream flavor is just sweet enough without being sickening (in milk or water)and mixes equally well with water or milk in a shaker bottle.
Taste		Heck, I feel like a kid at Christmas with all of the flavor choices they have.

Taste		This tastes amazing,
Taste		Tastes AMAZING when mixed w/oats for PWO.
Mixes well		It mixes without clumps, and is great when I don't have time to eat a full meal.

Suppressed appetite		It mixes without clumps, and is great when I don't have time to eat a full meal.


Taste		Its not bad on taste either I have definately had worse!!


Euphoria		You really have to be in the mood for it.
Taste		It tastes more like vanilla with just a hint of chocolate chips nothing like cookies and cream.


Taste		This stuff tastes great and ON is the leading company that makes protein.
Taste		This stuff tastes great too!!!!!!


Taste		but I was a little disappointed when considering all the fuss about its supreme taste.
Taste		It isn`t creamy and delicious at all when compareing to some cheaper proteins.
Value for money		It isn`t creamy and delicious at all when compareing to some cheaper proteins.
Ingredient profile		But the bcaa and omino acid profile is pretty good and of course: the advertising makes it a wanted product.


Taste		The taste is as good as you are going to get from a protein powder.
Mixes well		Works great and mixes in water with no chunks!


Taste		It has all the quality I could want, at a price I can afford and a taste I actually find pleasant.
Taste		This time around I tried out their new flavor of Vanilla Chai.
Taste		In the US, the drinks with Chai or Chai flavoring is usually way overdone.
Taste		The amount of spice is just enough to give you a hint of flavor.
Taste		With Optimum's protein powders, their flavors do tend to be on the weak side a little.
Taste		Well, this turned out to their advantage with this flavor.
Taste		The flavor is nice and mild, the way Chai was meant to be enjoyed.
Value for money		It has all the quality I could want, at a price I can afford and a taste I actually find pleasant.


Muscle gain		I used it to supplement my protein intake, and because it is Whey Isolate, the purest form of protein available, I have gained 5lbs of muscle over the course of a few months.


Taste		Taste great, hoprfully it will help me put on some much needed mass.
