Taste		Tried three flavors over the years, French Vanilla was just a mistake, Chocolate Malt was good
Value for money		Always satisfied with it, great value for a great product.
Value for money		but Cellucor is having Stack deal of: 3x Cor-Performance Whey 2 lbs + 1x C4 Extreme 30 servings for $74.99, figure I'd try something new while I have the chance to try at great value.

Taste		but there are better tasting/mixing proteins out there in my opinion

Taste		I try to mix other things with it to improve the flavor.


Taste		Phase 8 is the best tasting protein
Mixes well		Also, it mixes EXTREMELY well which is always a plus when looking for a good protein powder.
Value for money		I get it by the 10 lb bag as to really bring down the price per serving.
Ingredient profile		but I like this profile better.


Taste		Mixes great, the Vanilla Ice Cream tastes pretty great as well.
