GREAT TASTE & easy to mix
This has been my go-to powder for years. I love the versatile use of the Vanilla Whey. It mixes easily into my yogurt or cottage cheese for an extra protein kick but also makes a great protein drink in the blender. I have used the vanilla when I traveled and added it to water in a pinch. reminded me of powder milk we used to have as a kid. I recommend to all my clients

Chemicals in a container
People should take the time to look at the ingredient list for this product that claims to be "100% whey". Assortment of atleast 20 different chemicals and artificial sweeteners. The only thing you can expect from this is cancer a few years down the line.

Saved me from starvation!
My husband purchased this product for me because I was suffering with malnutrition due to medical issues. This product saved my life, I couldn’t eat I would get so sick but this product stayed down and I started to recover. I still use it everyday and love the vanilla ice cream as well as the chocolate

Very good
Drink very cold and I recommend with ice. Any non vanilla or chocolate flavor always pour over ice after mixing.

Don’t recommend this flavor.
I like ON but this flavor is horrendous. Very artificial and no matter how long I mix with a hand mixer it never fully smoothens. Stick to the double chocolate. Stuck with this jar so trying to finish it out.

Why put unnecessary chemicals in your product?
It tastes fine, but my girlfriend won't drink it because we didn't realize it had Red 40 until we got it
1 reply from Optimum Nutrition team - 11 months ago
Thank you for reaching out to us at ON. We understand your concern following the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s decision to no longer allow the use of Red Dye No. 3 in food effective January 2027. However, this ingredient is not used in any ON products.

Good taste, makes excellent shakes
My husband loves this to make shakes, especially to take when working long days on the job site. I find it a little sweet and that banana tastes really artificial, not that I have ever found a better banana flavored protein powder.

The best of the BEST!!! Delicious!!!
I had always bought optimum nutrition. Whey protein is always good to take in the morning and after a workout. That way your body can absorb the fast absorbing protein to fuel and build your body. Btw Strawberry banana is sooo delicious!!!

The best protein supplement yet!
It's tasty (I chose the natural vanilla), not too sweet, mixes extremely well - no clumps and has the highest protein content of any product I've seen. I look forward to my morning drink every morning when I get up - it's refreshing for the "morning mouth". I'm taking it since I broke my hip a few months ago and my surgeon recommended I supplement my diet with a protein drink in order to rebuild muscle.

Gross!
This protein tastes just as nasty as it tasted years ago. It has not changed a bit. I took a chance purchasing this junk based on some reviews that say it tastes good. Big mistake!
