> 3 dayHydrolyzed whey protein is partially digested and it tastes awful, thats just how it is. If you buy a hydrolyzed whey protein that doesnt taste terrible, its because it contains very little hydrolyzed whey. Hydrolyzed whey has a powerful muscle building effect because of its bioavailability and because its insulinotropic and will create lean muscle much better than any other protein source. (hydrolyzed collagen or collagen peptides also has similar benefits) Optimum Nutrition Hydrolyzed Whey tastes like it should, but not as good as other protein powders made from lesser protein. Hope they keep making it, but reviewers seem to be put off by the flavor. Mix it with another protein powder and some milk to take the edge off the flavor.

Greater than one weekI have been using this exact product for almost 5 years now and this batch does not taste the same, it now has a strong chemical taste, almost like laundry detergent. I was finishing up the previous container and mixed half of a serving of the previous batch with the new one. At first I thought the shaker wasnt rinsed thoroughly as it tasted like soap. My stomach was slightly upset, but at first I did not associate it with the protein powder. Unfortunately, when I made a full serving of the new batch, it tasted horrible and once again made my stomach turn. This was very discouraging as I really liked this product. I was already annoyed by the price increase, but was ok with paying extra for a premium product. Unfortunately, not only is it distasteful, but apparently you now have to pay for a unsavory and nauseating product that is not the same. I then started reading reviews and noticed several people saying the same thing. I tried to work something out with the seller without having to give a bad review, but here we are!!!

> 3 dayDoesnt seem to be any more potent or effective for me than my previous muscle milk. Ive gone through about half a tub at this point and I feel its giving me similar if not the same results as my muscle milk light. I will say the flavor on this stuff is absolutely amazing. Im on the Turbo Chocolate and the flavor is unmatched by anything ive ever had, and ive tried a lot (worst flavor being eas stuff), middle being muscle milk and the top being ON. The consistency is dependent on how much water you use; it mixes the best of any powder ive ever tried also, you can dump a crapload of powder on the bottom of your cup and pour water in and it will still mix without issue. Also find that it works best with water surprisingly, although using it with milk is good too if you want the extra calories or few grams of extra protein. Overall id give this stuff a 10, but overall price to taste to other options it comes out at a 9 because it is priced high and I feel I could get just as good results with any other powder...just not the taste.

Greater than one weekIve been taking this protein for probably 3 to 4 years and it is my absolute favorite protein. Im lactose intolerant so less calcium the better. The flavor is great. It says 6 to 8 ounces of water but I tend to do 12 ounces and it still tastes fine. Unfortunately it is getting harder to find and becoming more expensive. 30g of protein is pretty spot on. Not too little not to much.

> 3 dayI’ve gone through multiple different brands and types of whey protein powder over 6-7 years and nothing holds a candle to this. The flavor is unremarkable and inoffensive. The macros are great compared to some other carb-heavy protein powders out there. But most importantly this powder has given me exactly zero side effects compared to others. While I am not lactose intolerant, I experience bloating and get acne breakouts when having 2+ scoops a day of most whey protein powders, but this one came without any of those issues. The only issue is how expensive it is but I’m more than willing to pay the premium and I don’t see myself ever buying a different type or brand of whey in the future.

> 3 dayGood taste and mixes very well with water, milk, or coffee (water first), but high price. Why not available via monthly subscription?

> 3 dayI purchased this a few months ago after doing a ton of research on many different protein powders. Ive tried a few different brands, both in powders and premixed shakes. I had gastric sleeve surgery almost a year ago so protein is a very important aspect of my diet. My biggest problem is flavor! I cant stand a lot of the products Ive tried, its either gritty or tastes awful, or usually, its both. That being said, this powder is acceptable to me. Its not absolutely gag worthy but its definitely not delicious either. It almost has an oat taste to it, which is odd but not really gross or tasty either. The protein in it is good quality and I can tell because it doesnt cause gas or bloating. My favorite is still Premier Protein shakes in chocolate but this one is good for after my workouts or if Im really low on protein for the day. I mix it with fairlife milk, in a cup with a whisk and it blends fairly well. Please dont buy into the myth that your body can only absorb so much protein at once either because it simply isnt true. Ill still continue to look for a shake that tastes good without a ton of carbs but at this point at least Ive found something tolerable. That in and of itself has been a challenge! I would definitely recommend this product tho, especially if youre like me and have extremely picky taste buds.
