Just got a tub in last week and I cant remember the last time Ive actually enjoyed drinking my protein, without having to make a shake out of it with bananas/pb/milk etc.

ON whey was terrible, but Id just ended chugging it down, wasnt bad but wasnt enjoyable.

Anything else I can try?

PES Select is great. Their Snickerdoodle flavor is a long time favorite of many around here.

Ghost puts out some great tasting protein as well. Their Chips Ahoy and Nutter Butter are fantastic; they just released an Oreo flavor that I’m sure is just as good.

What specific flavor or flavors are you referring to?
This would help us out greatly.

There is a large list of brands with great-tasting protein that are also 3rd party tested and verified.
Unfortunately, Spartan whey has been out of business for years, and most of the tubs you may be getting are close to expiration since they closed doors quite a while ago.

Some of the fan favorites here, and many of them offer samples on their webpage, so you can try before investing in full-size tubs:

PEScience
Ghost
Nutrabio
Astroflav
MuscleSport
Morphogen Nutrition
Axe & Sledge
Nutrex
Dymatize
MTS Nutrition

These are just a few off the top of my head, but all of these brands make incredible products. You should find something here to suit your needs.

If you like Cinnamon from Sparta

PES - SnickerDoodle
Ghost - Cinnamon Cereal Milk
Dymatize - Cinnamon Bun
Nutrabio - Cinnamon Sugar Donut
Quest - Cinnamon Crunch
Ryse - Cinnamon Toast
MuscleSport - CinnaCrunch
@DieselNY has a Cinnamon Roll protein from his Ketogenics line which is also a good product

These would all be very good choices.

Well, you get what you pay for.
The reason Sparta is so cheap is that it's been out of business for years, and that is why the tubs are on the lower end for price. If you are always going to chase the "best" deal it may not always yield the "best" tasting. Just my 2 cents for you here.
I would try to grab some samples from these companies and form the best conclusion

Asking us what will be "best" for your taste buds is all subjective and honestly nobody can give you that answer. Everything we will advise is a guideline where it will have to be fine-tuned to your liking.

yea definitely figured the price was too good after u said they went out of business lol so I was comparing prices based on not knowing.
I ordered some samples, and will prob get some 2lb tubs of the ones that dont offer samples.

I too used to love and support Spartan, definitely great taste. I know there’s a lot of hype over Ghost and there’s good reason for that. Chips ahoy is my all time favorite protein. Recently, I tried the new Oreo flavor and it doesn’t disappoint. It’s definitely a little pricier but I’m sure there’s something in your life you can spend less on to make up for it. For me it’s energy drinks haha

Ghost Blueberry Toaster Pastry is my favorite, the Nutter Butters is also at the top of my list. I can't wait to try the New Ghost Oreo.

Now that would be good to blend up a little cinnamon toast crunch cereal in the shake for some extra cals and sweetness.
They had very good flavored protein, too bad they are gone ?????

Take caution

I would not be afraid of expired protein, unless it was way out of date

Same here. I'll usually use it up to 6 months past the expiration assuming smell and consistency is still normal.
