    Question Question about All The Whey, how does it compare to Syntha-6 in taste? SERIOUS


    i tried their whey before and i wasn't too blown away by it (all the whey).

    have they suddenly changed their flavor systems?

    please post feedback if you have used syntha AND all the whey.

    i was looking at

    cinnabun whey and the chocolate peanut butter.

    the choc PB by dymatize does not taste like choc pb. thank you!

    I have the cinnabun isolate (also have chocolate peanut butter and cinnabun blend but have not opened yet) and I use less than 16 oz of water with 2 scoops for the flavor/consistency to be what I like. IMO it is underflavored but not bad. Trial and error is what it took to find the perfect proportions for me. I have tried a ton of other protein and when this is on sale it's for sure worth it.

    why are they not double flavoring the protein? id pay an extra 5 bucks for double flavor.

    have you tried Xtreme Formulations whey? it is flavored great! just need more variety in flavors.

    Yes I have, 30lbs of it actually. They are coming out with new flavors soon, I believe.

    Nutra is having another sale on allthewhey soon and if it's anything like last week, it is for sure worth it.

    I've gone through 24 lbs of UP 1.0, 12 of the UP 2.0 and various Syntha's. I use the UP for the slow-release, however the Choc PB Cup by ATW is amazing; got a 5lb'er, demolished it in 8days, just got another 10lbs on the last sale. The Cinnamon Bun is a close second that I've been using for the past year or two. Some batches are flavoured stronger than others I find.

    true but i would at this point rather spend a little extra for way better flavor. another 5 dollars is worth it to me if that is the case

    I think you will be quite pleased with it, to be totally honest. I wouldn't have bought another 10lbs of PB Cup if I didn't think it was good; I'd say it's on par with UP 2.0 in my books. I don't usually do PWO shakes, but I think I'm going to start mixing this + bananas, its that good

    thanks for the info. UP 2.0 is good but 9g of fat for only 18g of protein is like doing a cost-benefit ratio to me.

    I'm curious how this turns out; UP 2.0 was fantastic. ATW's Choc PB wasn't the same, I'm curious how this matches up.

    and

    i just grabbed this from the trueprotein forum.

    so the choc pb from ATW isnt all that then?

    You found some of my quotes, just missed a few.
    See this one. Basically the Choc PB Cup I got in Oct/Nov from ATW tasted MUCH different than the PB Cup I bought from NP.

    I've tried the Syntha chocolate peanut butter and the ATW Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup...

    Syntha is hands down the better tasting powder. It tastes just like reeses peices. ATW... Does not.


    Edit: After reading the other posts, underflavored is the best way to describe it. It doesn't taste bad per se. But... Coming from Syntha, you'll be dissapointed.

    I think the Choc PB I tried in Oct/Nov was something completely different. I'll confirm it on Sunday with the 2 bags of PB Cup, but this stuff at NP sounds pretty consistent.

    I like both ATW and syntha 6

    Syntha 6 is thicker/stronger in flavor, but for me can have too strong of flavor, especially if I'm a little on the dehydrated side from my workouts. I prefer things to not be too rich.

    For the money??? ATW can't be beat.
