Product reviews proteins, Oat starch, Creatine

last month I ordered the sample flavor packs along with Whey Isolate, and the Team Skip Formula (Whey, Casein, Egg). I also ordered the Oat Starch, and Creatine Mono. I will keep this simple so that it may be useful to others. I will say All of the flavors were worth trying, there were no nasty ones I poured out.

Premium Flavors ranked 1-5 (5 highest)

Strawberries & Cream 5 - I have to agree with most others this is very good. Almost as good as BSN without the extra fat and carbs.

Vanilla 4 - Very good could be a little stronger

Chocolate 4 - It is good but I really wish it had a stronger chocolate flavor

Lime 4 - Surprisingly I liked this and it is perfect for mixing with other BCAA formula's. If it were a little more sour it would be perfect.

Lemonade 3 - About the same as lime, but I like the lime better

Orange 3 - Same as above.

Banana 3 - this was the strongest of all of the flavors IMO and was better mixed with another flavor or used in smoothie with fruit.

Chocolate banana 2 - It wasn't bad the 2 is just relative to the others and the banana way overpowers the chocolate

Strawberry banana 3 - I liked this better than the chocolate but the banana is still a little too strong.

Fruit Punch 2 - Not really a fair rating since I do not like FP in just about any form. Never liked Hawaiian Punch or anything like it either.


Team Skip Protein:
Great stuff 5! Strawberry & Cream, Chocolate, Vanilla Again Strawberries and Cream is the best.
I base the 5 on the fact that the price is much better than trying to buy a similar product from another mfg. The taste is right up there with a lot of more expensive proteins I have tried and it has less fat and carbs which are usually used to help the taste or consistency. It also mixes just about as easy as the whey which is usually not the case with casein. This will be one of my always on hand supps now.

Oat Starch 5 - I like this stuff I had mine mixed with Vanilla for flavor and it mixes very well with shakes. My new carb of choice for PWO shake. It has a very light oat taste and smell which with most flavors goes really well. Even from a taste standpoint I like this better than Dex or WMS. I am going to add cinnamon to this and mix it with vanilla and see who close I can get to an oatmeal cookie taste.

Creatine Mono 4 - I mixed in 20% dextrose, no flavor. The creatine is very fine so it mixes surprisingly well. Also with the small amount of dex and no flavor it mixes really well with shakes and doesn't screw up the flavor. I will play with ration of the dex and maybe add something else next time. As far as straight mono I am not sure why anyone would buy it other than in bulk like this as it is very cheap.

Psylum Husks 4 - I had these done in Vanilla as well. It is fiber so my expectations for taste aren't that high. I would give it a 5 if the consistency was much finer like Metamucil. It still mixes well but not as well as metamucil. It has a huge advantage in that you can get whatever flavor you want and it is very cheap.


Hope this helps!

I just placed another order, I used your code. Thanks for the discount.

I added some of the premium flavor mix to my order and I am going to play with the strength of the chocolate and strawberry. I will let you know how it goes.

I also forgot to include Pea Protein in my review. You guys sent me vanilla and it actually tastes pretty good. I think it is a good call for you guys to send out samples or the free protein promo on this because it tastes a lot better than it sounds and mixing in a scoop or two a day is a good way to get in some variety from your protein.
