16-11-2024This product has high quality ingredients but tastes like sun block. For the price point there are products of similar quality but also taste great, so I probably wont get this again

> 3 dayTook a chance on a fellow teammate recommendation. Tastes pretty good and my kids are picky so that is a win in itself.

> 3 dayBefore I bought this I was using the SFH branded whey vanilla protein powder which I LOVE but its gotten difficult to find. I read somewhere they are relocating, so maybe thats why. This one actually tastes pretty similar. I am really not into artificial sweeteners and this one is perfectly sweet without overdoing it and doesnt taste artificial. It also has more protein than the SFH and is cheaper. My only real complaint is that it doesnt mix quite as well. I feel like I really have to mix it super well to avoid any clumps and even then I still end up with just a few. Although this one is cheaper it ia still on the spendier end but I dont have too much of an issue if Im paying for good quality. I will likely buy this again when I run out. Using subscribe and save also helps!

> 3 dayThis protein isn’t going to amaze you with the flavor profile. It’s definitely something that could be better implemented in a smoothie. That said, I’ve gone through half the bag with cold water or almond milk in a shaker bottle—no problem. The other flavors appear to use stevia, which is sometimes too sweet, so this is definitely the high bar for a minimally sweet, non-artificially flavored protein. Will purchase again from Ascent … possibly strawberry again.

> 3 dayTo anyone who may come across this review, I ran out of my usual protein supply which is Forza Pro and is sold exclusively by Nutrishop (that I’m aware of) so I decided to go to the one down the street from my apartment. Turns out they were moving locations so I couldn’t get my usual protein. I went on Amazon and decided to purchase what I thought would be something that I could use to replace it in the meantime. I searched chocolate protein (I usually prefer chocolate flavored proteins) and came across this Ascent Native Fuel protein powder. Wanted some protein right away and it had next day shipping so I decided to give it a try without really reading too much on it or reading any reviews. All I saw was 120 calories for 25g of protein which is really pretty solid as far as protein powders go. I figured since it was $40 for 2lbs that it probably doesn’t taste too bad or anything. I was most definitely mistaken. It literally tastes like dirt mixed with cotton candy. I honestly can’t figure out the exact flavor but that’s the closest thing I can come up with to describe what it tastes like. I don’t even like to drink protein powders. I don’t like to make smoothies or anything, I mix it with water and just chug and I can tell you right now that it’s possibly the WORST tasting protein powder I’ve come across. I know that for the macros it has it’s hard to expect it to taste that good but this stuff actually tastes like dirt when I’m chugging it. And then when I finish I get this large aftertaste of cotton candy as if it’s going to make me go “wow now that’s great!” Now maybe it tastes better with milk or mixed into a smoothie but there are definitely other protein powders out there that I’ve had that have very similar macros and don’t taste nearly as bad. If you’re paying $40 for only 2lbs then it’d better taste pretty solid. For sure NOT getting this again. Going to just make sure to get my usual Forza Pro protein powder ahead of time before I run out so I don’t run into this issue again. EDIT: after reading some reviews I cannot believe that people are saying this stuff tastes great. They must literally have the most bland tastebuds on earth because this stuff actually tastes horrible. If you’re a normal human being that isn’t a gym freak on roids or Tren then don’t buy this ABSOLUTE GARBAGE.

> 3 dayWorth the money. I first picked this up at a local supermarket and I never went back. Great taste with quality ingredients, without the added extra fat and calories that a lot of other protein powders have.

Greater than one weekProduct is as described. Now this is only my opinion, but taste could be a little bit less chalky and the powder settles to the bottom of the glass/shaker if left over night in the fridge for the morning boost. (I use the magic bullet to mix my protein shake with banana and peanut butter) overall no complaints and does the job.
