    Great Flavor , Digestibility and Mixing

    I used a competitor for a long time and loved the flavor of theirs but this beats them all. It mixes so easily and doesn't have a lingering aftertaste. Also, noy irritable stomach at any point in the day after taking it. Helps tons with recovery. I can see this being a build agent easily, but I use it for recovery.

    Fruity Cereal - Not Good At All

    The fruity cereal flavor is really really bad. It tastes like a flat lemon lime soda. I even put sugar with this and it still didn't make it taste good or sweet at all. I would avoid this one

    Great flavor

    Flavor is great! I try to not add too much water as that really waters down the flavor but it’s really good! Not super chalky if you have a solid shaker cup. Definitely recommend!

    Protein powder has great macros. Not too much sugar or calories. The taste is smooth and it mixes well. Doesn't get old even after using it everyday for a month.

    Tried and True

    I have been using this product for years. Moderately priced and easily digestible. I use it almost every morning in my smoothie. Flavors are good and doesn't have a weird artificial sweetness that some do.

    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.

    Great tasting protein!

    This has become my go-to daily protein powder. I love the flavor - goes well by itself, in shakes and smoothies, and recently been using it to make ice cream as well. Super versatile and tasty!

    Great Protien

    The Vanilla flavor of Optimum Nutrition’s Gold Standard 100% Whey has become one of my favorite protein powders (I also really like the Strawberry flavor as well). Each serving delivers 24g of high-quality whey protein, which has been great for helping me build and maintain muscle alongside my regular training routine. I also like that it contains 5.5g of naturally occurring BCAAs, giving me extra support for muscle recovery after tough workouts. It mixes smoothly and tastes amazing. One thing I like is how versatile it is. It works perfectly before or after a workout, as a snack between meals, or my daughter even likes to blend it into her smoothies when she is trying to make healthy meal choices. Optimum Nutrition’s commitment to quality is another big plus. The powder is made with strict quality control, which gives me confidence in what I’m putting into my body. There’s a reason Optimum Nutrition is considered the #1 sports nutrition brand in the world—their products are consistent, reliable, and effective. Highly recommend!
