Taste		I have been using Optimum Nutrition products for years and there is a reason I always go back, even with a price premium: Their stuff is the best, tastes great, mixes well, and always shows great results in independent testing (Reddit user, Consumer Reports, etc.).
Taste		but without samples hard to tell if they taste or mix good, etc., so why would I bother wasting money to try.
