For the price I just cant complain. Its not the best quality but as a supplement to a good diet it works for me. If I am dieting down though I go for a better quality protein

Great value! I usually buy this product online and I have had no big complaints about it. The taste isn't the greatest but hey it's protein! Can't go wrong with this stuff.

If your looking for a decent tasting protein look somewhere else because this stuff tastes pretty damn bad. I only buy it when I need whey at the last minute and I haven't ordered any online. It's a good last minute substitute but I wouldnt make it my primary whey protein. FYI the strawberry tastes like pepto bismol!!!

This is one of the better proteins on the market. I know that is hard to believe but if the label is right and you do the math it's true. 26 grams of protein per serving with 130 calories perserve that makes it 80% of the calories come from protein.
(total grams of protein) 26
x (number of calories per gram of protein)4 = 104
(number of calories of protein divided by total calories)
104/130 = 80%.
Please chcek the chocolate flavor for values other flavors have 140 calories per serving.
This is the same standard as ON and above many other brands.

I have been using this product for years. It is great for a cheap whey protien addition. I drink 100 grams a workout day. The taste is par. Not great, but definetly not bad. I don't mind the taste. they have different flavors and also now offer a smaller, environmentally friendly tub which still has the same amount of protien.

15 bucks for two pounds. That is the best value on the market for protein, period. It doesn't taste bad, and it doesn't mix too poorly. 52 grams of protein for two scoops is better then most if not all proteins out there. Contains ample amounts BCAA's and small amounts of glutamine and creatine monohydrate. Don't let the price fool you, this is a quality product and aids in recovery time just as effectively as the high profile protein supplements. (Syntha 6, Myfusion, Nitro-Tech, etc.)When one pays for the more expensive proteins, they are just paying for the taste and the name. In my opinion, protein is protein. Workout, get the protein in your body, and it will aid in recovery and muscle building. I can't rave enough about this product.

Yes, this product does taste blah! But, with a digestive problem, I was losing weight real fast. This gives me 52g protein a day in 16oz water, can't use milk either. A tip for all those who hate the flavor, add 1 oz of mixer, ie pina colada and it makes it totally different, actually good. To thicken it up, I add 4oz of the walmart brand protein drink with 350 calories. After 1st week, stopped my weight loss and have stayed even as my stomach relearns to digest. On 5th week, 4th 2lb 'tub' now and planning on continuing. Overall the best value and locally available even out in the boonies [as long as there's a WM around] It is the mainstay of my protein intake, with 1 bottle [11oz] of MuscleMilk every two days or so. Surprisingly also available at WM, about the only store within 40 miles.

Last minute protein for me if I don't get my stuff on time like when I buy my protein from Amazon with supersaver shipping and I didn't plan it well!!! I've only tried the chocolate flavor and the taste is bearable. Of late I dread any other flavor with any protein out there in the market. Pretty good amount of protein per serving for the money we spend on it and pretty decent combination of ingredients too. 1-1/2 scoops per serving should be good enough for one time.

This protein is cheap if you buy it from wal mart you can get it for about 12$ but it tastes like S*** it is sickening Ive been using it for about 3 months and it does help me to gain some muscle. The vanilla would be the least sickening flavor but last night at the gym i was gulping it down and a hard chip like piece of it got stuck in my throat and i almost threw up immediately. I dont know about anyone else but with my experience using this product i have had these hard pieces in vanilla and strawberry and with strawberry it is even more sickening I dread taking this everyday just because of the disgusting taste I had to give the strawberry tub away. it definitely is better with milk if you MUST take this but at the gym i use water so yeah its sick. people say that it doesnt mix well with milk but mine doesnt mix well with water either and i shake it up pretty good but it just doesnt mix when i gulp it down I feel tons of powdery clumps going down my esophogus. this product would be fine if it didnt taste like pure s*** it is extremely hard to handle. just writing this review makes me think of it and i want to vomit. If possible use something else but im going to have to say no just because flavor but if you can handle it then it should help you.

Real OG Gym heads know! Best bang for the buck! With BCAA's glutamine, creatine, you cant go wrong. You can catch it at wal mart for 12 bucks. And you can sometimes find the 5 lb container for 25 bucks. However someone told me wal mart upped the price to 14 as of late. Just like they did to six star which used to be 14 a container and now its 19. Idk I am sure some walmarts still have it for 12. Vanilla is most pliable with blending mixing or straight up.

I tried all the flavors except the new cookies and cream and the best one buy far is the chocolate really smooth. I tried all most of the top whey proteins out there. And this one the best for buck and protein. Just get chocolate its the best flavor

The thing about this stuff that I really like is that its cheap and it works. You can get this at Walmart. The only thing about it that I don't like is its not the greatest tasting protein out there. I wish the taste was better. As long as the price stays cheap and it works for me I will keep using it. One good thing I have noticed that when I take it I don't get that all bloated feeling in the stomach like I have gotten with a couple other proteins I have tryed.

This is great on taste and value. It taste better with milk to me. 2%, fat free or slim milk.
In the morning i add in old fashion Oaks, tbsp-almonds,5 grams creatine, all natural peanut butter and strawberrys(1 0r 2)
Before workout mix creatine Mono. with fav drink and stack it with Super NOS Pump.
45mins after taking creatine mono. and Super NOS Pump. in between sets I take BCAA powder mix it in you fav, drink because when your working out blood rushes into your muscles empty and its better when you take it with BCAA powder in between sets. so the blood rushes with BCAA into your muscles.that will help with recovery and gain muuscle.
After workout i add in peanut butter, strawberry, almonds, gultamine.
This works for me.
You guys to remember everybody different. What works for you may not work for others. Everybody his different in muscle fibers and genetics.

Taste is not so great but, You can mix a bannana with it like i do and sometimes P.Butter and the horrible taste goes away. Not to mention the amount of protein you get for the price AMAZING. I bough mine at walmart for $14 some bucks and it lasts me 3 weeks. You get 52 grams of Pure Protein in 2 scoops and adding P.Butter and bannana you talking to about 70grams of Protein,I even sometimes add egg whites.

This is the absolute worst tasting protein I've ever tried. I've tried a number of proteins, some so good you could eat the powder right out of the can, but when I mix this up, nothing I do makes it taste even tolerable. It makes me want to throw up. Sure it's a good price, but if I can't drink it without gagging it's not worth it.

For the price its the best! I take six scoops a day...you should be getting at least 1g of protein per pound of body weight, so six scoops is 156grams I weigh 175. So i shake at breakfast (must add banana though taste is tollerable with a banana)Whole Wheat toast. Then can of tuna or chicken at 9:00. Another Shake at 12:00 With a Whole Wheat turkey or chicken sandwhich. At 3:00 Maybe a small boiled or baked chicken breat. Then Another shake right after your workout. Then Dinner! This eating schedule seems to work great for me...the key is to not eat a whole lot at a time...small spread out meals...keeps your metabolism going throughout the day. This gives me around 200grams of protein per day which is great for someone 175lbs. The only problems i have with it is the gas a little not a whole lot though.

Flag | I like the idea of this.. the other comment is not completley true.. if all protien was consumed at on time or in bulk situations.. then the body would not use most of it.. but spread out like that it more of the protien is used... |

Flag | dont get me wrong high protein intake is good for you but 200 grams is a little bit too much for someone your weight because most of it is just wasted because unless you hardcore bodybuild and are in the gym day and night your body will not use it and you literally flush it down the toilet |

I have been taking supplements since 1970 and let me tell you of all the protein supplements I have taken over the years this protein powder is as good as or better than the best. Just a little gas once in awhile , but I think most give you gas except maybe Isopure which is also outstanding... Body Fortress is 1/2 the price of the so-called best rated products''tom short NY
