Protein powder

Hello Fitness Pals...

I need some advice! So I'm ordering Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey protein and need a little input on which flavors are the best! I can't decide which one to get since I'm ordering the 5lbs and don't want to get stuck with a bad flavor!

Lots of Thanks

  • What are you going to do with it?

    If you plan on blending it with other ingredients in smoothies, etc, I'd recommend sticking with a pretty general flavor (vanilla or chocolate).

    FTR, those are the only two I've personally had and both were just fine.
  • I've been drinking the Muscletech chocolate whey protein. 30gs of protein per scoop, 170 calories. It tastes best with milk in my opinion. I've tried a few.
  • Trutein 4 lyfe

    Srs. I ordered ON Extreme Milk Chocolate and it's gross. I can't wait til it's gone. I can't speak for other flavors but at least with Trutein you can get some samples before you commit.

  • We only use Gold Standard Natural Vanilla and love it. It has NO weird aftertaste, a small ingredients list, good nutrition numbers, and mixes very well. It has a subtle yet appreciable vanilla flavor that just works. Its the only one of any protein powders we've had any luck with.
  • Rainbowbow by far the best post ever hahah

    Thank you everyone for the replies! I'm going to be taking my shakes post workout and perhaps meal replacement so I want to make sure they taste good! I like ON products so planning on sticking with them. And I don't blend mine with anything except milk so I like a bit of flavor
