Taste		The French Vanilla Creme and the Vanilla Ice Cream taste almost the same to me.


Taste		You really can't beat the quality of protein and the amazing tastes that are available.
Taste		It is also a very low carb protein with the highest amount of carbs per serving in any flavor is 4g and with 2g being the amount in certain flavors like strawberry and strawberry banana.
Value for money		This protein has become my go to protein for quality and a very good price for the amount of servings.


Taste		The taste isn't breathtaking
Taste		I tried combining it with peanut butter and banana and it just tasted mediocre.
Taste		So if you're one of those people who wants a whey that tastes good just by itself or with milk, without having to go through all that hassle of combining things to make it taste good, then this is for you.


Taste		Tastes a lot like hot chocolate to me when with water it is good i mix it with 4-5 ounces per scoop to give it a little more body and bolder taste with milk just amazing.

Muscle gain		If I got this again I'd definitely get a more mild flavour - vanilla or something.
Taste		This particular flavour is definitely an acquired taste - it sucks.

Mixes well		It mixes well with a proper protein shaker,
Mixes well		but if your shaker is in the washing machine and you have to use a normal drink bottle or something, it clumps up and doesn't work well at all. - make sure you have a protein shaker.
