What are the best flavors to try of Optimum Nutrition whey protein powder?

I had the Rocky Road because someone said it was one of the best tasting ones, but I have to disagree. I haven't tried any others so I'm not sure if they all have the same artificial taste. It's like the artificial sweeteners taste that I can't stand. I'm not a fan at all!!

The flavors I have tried seem to be true to their names. I personally love the double rich chocolate.

Go to www.naturesplus.com. They have info on the many different flavors. Scroll down to vanilla sport, click "learn more," and you can get to the nutritional label from there. Basically, 260 calories and 100% or more if many vitamins. If its too much sugar for you, I suggest Jay Robb's protein shake or the Aloha green mix.

I prefer water or almond milk. The key is to add about an inch of liquid first, then powder, then the rest of the liquid. Either blend or use a good shaker bottle to break up the protein. My FAVORITE method is to make a breakfast smoothie with almond milk, protein, banana, berries, nuts, avocado and honey.

There are two different Muscle Feast unflavored whey isolates. I've had both the 26g and 24g. I pick up the former if it's in stock and the latter if not. They both taste the same and haven't affected my lactose intolerance.

I recommend using any flavor you prefer but with Vanilla milk. Each flavor tastes like what it says in the form of a powder. I recommend banana cream with very vanilla soymilk

They have a new option where you can get it in Whey. I ordered the soy version (even though the image said Whey) it still came to me correctly.

I prefer vanilla, for the ability to mix fruit and other flavors with it. This way you can switch up the flavor, and only have to buy one jug of protein. If I'm going for a quick shake, I will put a scoop in a shaker with milk or almond milk and a shake of cinnamon. Most of the time I mix it in a blender with ice, milk and fresh fruit. Also, here are a couple of favorite recipes: Banana bread: ice, milk ,1 scoop of protein, a banana, oats, honey and cinnamon Chocolate Peanut butter: ice, milk, 1 scoop of protein, chunky peanut butter, chocolate syrup

Sort of neutral but not a taste that would gag. Slightly sweet. I use it in drinks, smoothies, blended and mixed with fruits like strawberries. blueberries, with almond milk or non-fat milk. Nutritionist's recipes usually add vanilla flavoring and vanilla flavored coffee creamer. Not really needed. I've never tried it plain mixed with water. It's one of the best whey proteins in quality and taste. Also good in a coffee frappe. Make "pumped up" milk with one scoop to 8 oz. milk, shake vigorously to mix. Sweet and good on cereal and in coffee.

This is a high quality protein source only. Other nutrients must be supplemented separately. There are 41 scoops and one scoop is 40 calories and 10 grams of protein. The special quality about this whey protein isolate is that it has absolutely no sweetener or flavoring of any kind. It has a mild and pleasant taste of whey. I liked to use fruit, coca powder and a 1/8 cup of nonfat powered milk to sweeten and flavor it. It is best to use a single serving blender.

Nope...the J Robb whey protein products I use are sweetened with stevia. I mix the unflavored and vanilla in equal parts as I find the vanilla is a bit too sweet and 'vanilla-y' for my taste. Makes an excellent smoothie paired with fresh fruit, cranberry juice and water...or flavorings of your choice.

It is pretty much flavorless, with a faint clay-ish or chalky taste. I believe other flavors in your protein shake would completely cover any flavor from the L-glutamine.

Also, if you want a zero carb high protein drink that you can mix with water and will taste like fruit juice, try Nectar Fuzzy Navel, it's cheaper and tastes better, it's my favorite protein of all time.

It's a much better taste. As for "results," considering my diet and exercise routine is kicking back into gear, I feel much better taking this protein post workout than I did with Optimum Whey.

The '100% Natural Whey Protein Powder' does not contain any artificial sweeteners. This is ONLY the 'Natural Flavor' version. The flavored ones do contain sweeteners, though I'm not sure which ones. You can see a copy of the nutritional label at this site: http://www.biochem-fitness.com/pages/powders_main.html#ultlonatural ~ Here is a list of the ingredients: Whey protein isolate, Natural french vanilla flavor, soy lecithin, xanthan gum, contains milk and soy. There is NO yeast, wheat, gluten, preservatives, artificial color, artificial flavor or artificial sweeteners.
