There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
CONS: I tried it with a cup of soy milk right away. Not a rich double chocolate flavor that's advertised. It's more like chocolate milk. If I used less milk the flavor was better. I can't imagine what it tastes like with water. I used a blender bottle to mix the shake. Sometimes there would still be undissolved powder at the bottom even when shaking the mixture with the blender ball vigorously. Don't count on it to keep you full for long, although it's protein, it's not much and it's still a fluid that doesn't keep you full for long.
Another thing is that I tried the product with real milk, and it ended up having a sour taste. Maybe that was my taste buds because I don't like regular milk but it did taste a bit off to me.
Packaging-wise I didn't like it. Like most products now, it was halfway full, the seal was a bit hard to close at first (maybe I'm just weak).
OVERALL: As someone trying to lose weight, I will not purchase again for two reasons: 1) the flavor wasn't that great and 2)it didn't in any way shape or form control my hunger. I had the serving size (1 scoop -120 calories) and about a cup of soy milk (80 calories). I think it was just a waste of calories because fluid is so easy to digest so it doesn't keep you full which is the whole point of the protein. I might as well get those 24 - 30 grams of protein by eating REAL FOOD that will satiate my hunger for 3-4 hours instead of 1-2.
I previously had been using plant based protein powders but was disappointed repeatedly by the lack of overall flavor and sweetness. After doing some research, I saw Optimum Nutrition was considered one of the best whey proteins both in taste and ingredients, and I’m very happy I decided to try it. Definitely interested in tasting the extreme milk chocolate next!

Tasty with ice and feels like human fuel.
