If you have a Cosco near you, I suggest you check out "Pro Rated" 100% whey protein. It's decent as far as protein profile goes (22g pro, 4g carb 1.5g fat) the bavarian chocolate tastes yummy mixed with milk or water (but then again I like the taste of broccoli & spinach salads, so take that with a grain of salt) and the best part of all... 6lb for 19.95 :)

Ex Nihilo
 
I think what with protein you have the three primary flavors of Chocolate, Vanilla and Strawberry. So long as you have those three you should be good. I'd also like to see some of the more exotic flavors like Banana, Orange and Tropical Punch.

My only suggestion is to use Splenda. That asko-k whatever and asfulmo something always has a funny after taste. If you could make a cheaper version of Labrada's lean body I would be all over that.

I'm also not a fan of thickening agents. It might be cool if you're just using one scoop, but what if you wanted like 2, 3, or 4 scoops? Too many times I've had to add like 30oz of water because my shake turned into pudding!
 
Personally I have never had a strawberry/bananna one so I can't comment on that.

I do like Vanilla though, again for the flexability. Lately what I have been doing is taking my two scoops of vanilla and adding a little bit of Lean Mass matrix (chocolate) into the shake....that **** is damn good.

I know when people buy icecream they get a chocolate/vanilla swirl..they should have that for a protein shake..best of both worlds..

Optimum chocolate is really good too, but I switched to vanilla, simply b/c sometimes I will get sick of having the chocolate, where as with vanilla..again you can just change the flavor at will

Mochaccinno is by far my favorite. I'm kind of a coffee-fiend. I've been gradually weaning myself away from the morning sludge, and a mochaccino protein shake has been a great way of getting the taste without the caffeine. MMM...
 
I definately go with vanilla as a stand alone protein shake. But my favorite shake is one scoop of ON's serious mass strawberry, with two scoops of vanilla 100% whey, 1 tbs peanut butter, two cups skim milk, and a couple handfuls of ice. It's got a lot of calories(around 800) so I take it post w/o while bulking (which seems to be most of the time).

wanted to say this sportsone whey isolate (7lb for 21.99) is the best deal ive gotten. i was expecting assness, as far as taste but its right up there with the better tasting 5lb + whey ive tried (simply, opt100, even isopure) pretty thin though....im a thick shake man man.

I'm with you on the thick shakes, thickness is more important than taste for me. What thick proteins do you use or have used?
 
ON 100% Whey CHOCOLATE! Prolab N-Large 2 Chocolate sucks! My vote was for chocolate though, since I mainly use ON.
 
ON 100% Whey Cookies and Cream is so fricking good. Its also good to mix with chocolate or vanilla. Its my favorite.

i dont know if u mix urs with milk ..ie skim milk..but if u want soemthing thick try skim milk plus..its thicker then reg skim and has 11 grams of proteins opposed to the standard 8 grams in reg skim.great product
 
I live on OptNut Chocolate, for the wake-up and go-to-sleep shakes I mix ON chocolate with a scoop of Muscle Milk... tastes GREAT (tony the tiger would be proud).
 
I just got DYMATIZE butter cream toffee flavor and its the freaking bomb! I usually go vanilla flavor powders, so I can mix with fresh or frozen fruit, especially pre and post w/o. I get whatever budget 5lb brand that has a decent % of isolate, low carbs and low fat. This stuff is so good you can mix it with anything and it just makes it better. It's very sweet, though.

Somebody should make peanut butter and banana flavor, though. That would definitely be my favorite.

Oh, and Muscle Milk root beer float is off the hook!!!
 
GNC Mega Whey Chocolate is very good in my opinion. I usually use the mega whey chocolate with some lean dessert fresh cinnamon roll or banana nut bread when I have it to make some really tasty shakes. Always using 1% milk. I have also used the GNC Mega Whey Vanilla, with 1% milk with strawberries and a banana in a blender which is also very good.
 
The absolute best IMO is Muscle Milks rootbeer float. Tastes like a real rootbeer freeze (rootbeer and icecream blended). However I mostly use All-The-Whey's vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry. I cycle them so as not to get to burnt out on one.
 
Beverly: Ultimate muscle building protein- Cookies and Cream
Ultra size- Chocolate
Cytosport: Evopro- chocolate
 
Substance WPI, either Grape or the Watermelon, **** is so good you will forget you are not getting any carbs!

Dymatize does make banana, and while at first its good, trust me, after 4-5 shakes you won't even want to look at it. I've got a tub sitting here that I barely touch.

GNC?. Huh?. You are in the dark bud!. I really feel sorry for you.
 
Vanilla is the safest bet if you are not sure how good it will taste. I have had some really nasty chocolate in the past.

If I need to pick on of them it would be chocolate. My real favorite is "Mocha Joe" Muscle Milk.

Good to hear. I was planning on getting a few containers of MM. Cookies and creme, rocky road, mocha joe and chocolate mint. Hope they're as good as they sound.
 
My favorite is easily Champion Nutrition's Cocoa Mochaccino.

It's absolutely amazing and mixes incredibly well. I'm going to try All the Whey soon because of their prices, I guess. :hammer:

Going to miss my coffee protein shakes, though. :sad:
 
Ive tried Optimum Nutrition's Strawberry, Vanilla and Chocolate Whey protein powder's. I personally believe the chocolate is the best tasting of all three of them, its so tasty that i find myself looking forward to drinking it throughout the day.:)
 
The best whey protein flavor in water that Ive had is ON 100% whey chocolate mint. Im anxious to try some fruit flavors from other companies though.
 
PVL's Whey Gourmet comes in Strawberry Banana. I've not tried that flavor, but their Chocolate Peanut Butter flavor is great!
 
Favorite Protein Flavors

My personal favorite protein flavors are both from SAN's Infusion. I really enjoy their Cinammon Oatmeal and Chocolate Peanut Butter. They are really thick, taste great with either milk or water, and mix really well.

Of course I really like ON's Chocolate Mint, Double Chocolate, and Rocky Road as well.

Iron-Tek's Cookies and Cream is the best for C&C I have found but it doesn't mix well. Awesome in oatmeal or CC though.

Champion's Banana and Mocha both kick some serious ass, mix well, and taste great.

I have a few favorites I guess you could say.
 
Ok....let's see.
ON or ATW Chocolate makes up the majority of my shake consumption...both with water.
ON or ATW Chocolate mint is really good too.
I've also tried ATW Vanilla, Banana, and Orange....they all are really good. They mix well too. Like the Vanilla and Orange together or the Banana and Chocolate together, etc. I also sometimes use ATW unflavored with Crystal Light or Kool-aid w/ Splenda.

Oh.....has anyone tried the ON Tropical punch? Just curious.
 
I like unflavored. That way, I can just spike whatever I happen to be eating or drinking with 22g of protein.
 
I avoid Chocolate, Vanilla, and Strawberry like the plague.

I've had those flavors for 10+ years now, and I thank god for the designer flavors now!!!
 
I love champion pure whey's cocoa-mochaccino. Their Super Heavyweight Gainer chocolate is also very tasty. :cheers:
 
i would have to vote for
true protein chocolate iso
and ultra peptide chocolate
mass meal bannana:food:
