Taste		This was one of the first protein powders I have tried and I must say that it is very, very, and very good quality protein, how do I know, well because the taste is not the best
Taste		but the quality is amazing and they are a trust worthy brand, to anyone who is deciding on a fast acting protein powder I would go with optimum nutrition preferably not the strawberry banana flavour as it is not the best


Taste		i just want to say, the mocha cappuccino flavor is EPIC!! i mix it with water and just 2-4oz of skim/low fat milk, oh man its so GAF! if your looking for the best whey protein in the market you cannot go wrong with ON Gold standard
