Ugh i cant even remember the name of my it's that bad! It's supposed to be strawberry, the guy in the shop said 'Yeah! It tastes great with water or milk!", quite a good sales line :p but the stuff is horrible! Made me almost puke the first time i even smelt it with milk

BigMal 12-07-2006 06:35 PM

So far I like ON Chocolate. It doesn't taste like ass in water, like others I've tried.

verbatimreturned 12-07-2006 07:42 PM

I use many different types, as far as taste I think muscle milk is the best. most of the time I use Optimum nutrition whey protein.

Joker13 12-08-2006 12:23 PM

So far my fav is On wheys Vanilla custard MRP Taste like a shake if you mix it in the blender

iron_worker 01-07-2007 08:51 PM

Whey Sensation blend berry mix and Whey Sensation ISO cookies and cream are both great in milk. The berry mix is still good in water, the cookies and cream is ok in water. Much better then the Gold Standard I tried.

johnytufnuts 05-27-2007 03:41 PM

ok this is where its at.....muscle milk (mint chocalate chip, cookies and cream, and root bear float).....they are the new flavors that rock.......but my main protein comes from a company called champion nutrition (ultramet original) 43 grams of protein.....I buy the packets of vanilla bean.....great taste....they have amazing snack bars too....

austrailia21 07-03-2007 07:51 PM

never had protien with milk but. syntrax roadside lemonade. isolate. its like a juice so u can put glutimine and ur creatine in it and just have one shake. and i like bsn syntha 6 with my oatmeal.

hunt0r 07-09-2007 06:58 PM

I have tried quite a few proteins and I would say the best tasting was some of the Muscle Milk flavors I tried. Only thing I dont like about the Muscle Milk is the high calories and price...so I have been stick to Optimum Nutrition Rocky Road Whey Protein. I buy it by the 10lb bags and that stuff is a solid choice. I have tried most of the ON flavors and I like the Rocky Road the best.

TALO 07-09-2007 07:45 PM

It use to be PVL vanilla ice cream,,,,but believe it or not I'm liking (BSN)SYNTHA-6. I mixes very easy and tastes great even with water. The only reason I got it is because it was $20 (cheap for BSN).

_Wolf_ 07-10-2007 06:21 AM

ATW weightgainer all the way

IronKitten 07-12-2007 09:47 AM

Dymatize Elite and PVL are two of my fave brands.

Right now I've got the Dymatize Butter Cream Toffee. I mix with water (mixes really easily too, with good flavor). Add in a tablespoon of chocolate SF Torani syrup and it tastes like a liquid Heath bar. :biglaugh:

I've even been making the occasional toffee coffee-chino lately. Just mix with iced black coffee instead of water.

EricT 07-12-2007 10:14 AM

Dymatize Elite is one of the wheys I have right now. It's priced very well also.

Which flavor do you have?

EricT 07-12-2007 01:15 PM

It's berry I think. I tend to go for those kinds of things because they are somewhat neutral in terms of mixing. I could realy care less about flavor, though. It's just for supplementation after all. Heck, I only care about the flavor of my food half the time :)

hrdgain81 07-12-2007 01:25 PM

^^ you tend to go for the fruity stuff eh? :biglaugh:

EricT 07-12-2007 02:19 PM

Yes, real men can pull it off :biglaugh: I also skip the Vodka and keep to the Seagrams wine coolers like Bruce Willis I am the quintessential alpha dog. I do what I want and others follow :D

Riddick2112 07-14-2007 09:30 AM

i just use GNC chocolate flavor 100% Whey. A 5lb tub lasts me a few months because i only use it for my pre-to post w/o shake mixed with pineapple juice.

and no it isnt very tasty but i've gotten used to it and enjoy grossing out my g/f or any other innocent bystanders when i sip it before training.

:ARChainGun:

Optimum nutrition 100% whey-Strawberry

Mr.Right 03-10-2008 03:21 PM

I use Dymatize High Protein Mega Gainer.

http://www.dymatize.com/mivastore/gr...ro_MG_10lb.jpg

I add 1 banana and 1 large tbsp of peanut butter and mix with no-fat skim milk. It tastes amazing. This is the best shake mix I've ever drank and has 60g of protein from the powder alone!!!

J-Rock 03-15-2008 08:20 AM

I use ON Gold Standard Chocolate, but I'm going to give EAS a shot, Bought it at Costco.

skott 03-18-2008 08:19 AM

ON Banana Cream is not bad. Muscle Milk Chocolate is great tasting but way to expensive. I have found the best taste/quality/price combo in ON products though.

ShelbyStang 03-20-2008 04:59 AM

I use PVL and LOVE it.

Cookies and Cream
Peanut Butter Cup
Caramal Dip
Mint Choc Chip
Orange Dreamcicle

all great

Hilton 03-22-2008 12:31 PM

I dont really lik this strawberry whey i bought but its good when u throw it in the blender with 1tbsp of PB and 1/4 cup of oatmeal and some milk

stalion 05-16-2008 05:42 PM

on banana cream taste great with water = good price
Best tasteing of them all true mass by bsn then theres syntha 6 very good to

1quick1 05-16-2008 06:20 PM

My everyday shake is 16oz of water + 1/2 - 1 cup ground rolled oats + 1-1.5 scoops of whey.

If I'm looking for a treat I replace the water with milk and it tastes ridiculously good. The oats really make it tastes great with milk.

HSfootball16 05-20-2008 06:57 PM

any that i dont have to buy myself (mom still pays for them :))

simpyson 06-29-2008 10:23 PM

My all-time favorite was Muscle Milk best tasting protein ever

ive never understood why someone would want a weight gainer. why not just put 4 scoops of whey in your shake, and make it huge? that would be something like 100 or more grams of protein. idk why anyone would want the extra carbs...

HeavilyArmed 07-12-2008 06:01 AM

For whey- ON Rocky Road, by far the best tasting flavor i've had

For Casein- ON Banana Cream, doesn't mix well sometimes but taste is good

john917v 07-12-2008 08:33 AM

My fav. is whichever's cheaper, that gets the job done!! EAS 100% whey (chocolate) for me, it goes better (IMO) with other foods/blend-ins than the so-called 'vanilla'!

Pitysister 07-12-2008 09:09 AM

i thought eas vanilla was terrible...didn't work well in my breakfast shake :)

john917v 07-12-2008 09:45 AM

The vanilla's not that great, but I will ingest it if there is none other. The worst kind I've ever had, hands (and feet) down was this 3-gal or so tub from GNC. It tasted OK (at best) w/ milk, and simply horrible w/ water!

Pitysister 07-12-2008 10:08 AM

the worst i've had is chocolate body fortress from walmart. with water...milk....yuck.

Ross86 07-12-2008 10:37 AM

The new MRI PRO NOS ready to drink whey shakes suck, in case anyone is curious. It's whey protein, but it's expensive and tastes awful. I have only tried the chocolate...theoretically the vanilla could taste better, but I doubt it.

john917v 07-12-2008 12:12 PM

I used to take the body fortress from WM, I liked it, with water or milk. If you thought that was nasty, the stuff I had from GNC was 2x worse!

Quit 08-08-2008 12:49 AM

Strawberry

rdkdrn 10-13-2008 10:04 AM

Vanilla EAS 100% Whey is my choice...tastes great and mixes well.

Try the EAS mixed blend. They sell 6Lbs for $33 at Costco while the EAS 100% Whey is $31.95 for 5Lbs at Sam's Club. It evens out at the end because you have to add two smaller scoops with the mixed blend as apposed to one large with the 100% Whey.
And pity, the EAS vanilla 100%whey doesn't mix as well in a hand shaker as the 100% Whey Chocolate. BUT, the EAS mixed blend mixes better and tastes better than both. If you put the 100% whey in a blender with 1/2 a banana, about 6-8 ice cubs with 12oz of water it works better. But put the protein in last and only mix the protein in for about 10 seconds, the 100% Whey vanilla foams up really bad. Also, the vanilla mixed blend mixes really well in a hand shaker with cold water and ice cubs. Even better than the chocolate. But, DON't use hot water, it makes it clump up.

Hope this wasn't to confusing...

Bottom line, the mixed blend mixes better either way and tastes better. Also, with the Vanilla mixed blend you can add fruit and get a better flavor. You're more limited as to what you can add with chocolate. I'm just not sure I would want to drink a chocolate-peach shake.
