Reviewer: yusuf can in Turkey
This is the most selling, best protein powder out there. Having used all of the flavors highly recommend: banana cream, caramel toffe fudge (little bit aftertaste though but my favorite), double rich chocolate, extreme milk choc., cookies n cream for vanilla lovers vanilla ice cream and french vanilla are both amazing strawberry tastes weak, orange cream is not good. rocky road is disgusting. I could not still understand who would want that bitter taste.

Best price for protein powder! Mixes well, tastes excellent and smooth, very little clumps with a shaker. With 22 Amino Acids included, how can you go wrong? I have noticed gains from this and this is my 2nd purchase.

Best Bang for your Buck. Not that expensive and doesn't carry all the fat and calories that some have. I used to use muscle milk but it just came with too many calories. It tasted great but not worth it. ON protein doesn't taste as good as muscle milk but its close enough and it is much better for you.

I have been buying ON protein for quite a number of years for the simple reason that it is great. I have tried other brands, but nothing comes close. It tastes great, mixes easily and is the best buy for the money. When you need to get your protein level very high (1.5-2 grams per pound of body weight) it's easy to add one or two of these shakes to your diet. Don't waste your time or money on any other brand. I usually buy the chocolate, but the vanilla and strawberry are also very good.

I have been using ON protein in chocolate and vanilla flavors for a couple years now with great results. I recently bought the mocha cappacino flavor and it tastes absolutely amazing, especially if you are in a hurry in the morning and don't have time for coffee. I love ON, great results and great products for the price, best protein on the market in my opinion.

I love ON's 100% Whey Gold Standard Protein! It tastes great and mixes up well! I was even able to get my finicky wife hooked on it.

I liked it so much that I just ordered Neopolitan; 2.07 lbs of Chocolate, 2.07 lbs of Strawberry and 2.07 lbs of Vanilla.

All that and Netrition has by far the best price...let's just say that Netrition was 33% cheaper than that national chain that goes by 3 letters.

I've been using this powder in my morning shakes for almost 5 years! One scoop powder + one banana + one cup of skim milk makes a killer morning post-workout shake.

I have only used the Double Rich Chocolate but I love it. After an aerobic workout, I put a rounded scoop into 8 ounces of decaf coffee (room temperature, not hot)in a shaker cup, shake 30 times and it is a really good chocolate-flavored coffee drink. I have also put the same in a blender with ice cubes and an ounce of Philly cream cheese to make a smoothie.....yummy. It has helped build muscle on my 65+ years old body. The heaviest weights I use are 5 pounders and mostly 3 pounders.

This is by far the best tasting protein powder that I have tried. I was happy with almost all of the flavors (except Strawberry - Jay Robb is much better).

The best tasting protein I have bought. Absolutely no clumps, even when shaken with a regular water bottle. From my research on Proteins this brand as the highest rated and I have been buying it for 3 years now. Excellent product!

I started using this product because it is lower in cholesterol than the other proteins on the market. I found that it mixes very thoroughly and the double rich chocolate and strawberry taste great!! This protein is the best on the market and is inexpensive!! I highly recommend this protein.

The 5lb Tropical Punch is the ONLY whey protein in my arsenal. It mixes easily with a shaker and I can add in my creatine, glutamine & BCAA's easily too. There are "other" brands that offer a tropical punch flavor and the 2lb tub is close to $30. For $6 bucks more, buy ON's and get a 5lb tub.

I really like that my daughters can use it and is safe and not harmful. We use it with ice cream and crushed ice in a blender and they love it after we get back from the gym. Its a nice source of protien. They have gotten leaner and stronger and doesn't have all that harmful hormones in it. My daughters are 19,16,13 and myself. They all play sports and have increased strength & speed in fastpitch softball. Run faster and hit further. got to love it....

I first got the variety pack to see which flavors I liked most. I can say none of them were bad, yes some were better than others and some I would never consider buying but they were all tolerable to drink. I have experienced some clumping with this protein that's why I'm giving it a four. The nutrition facts were what sold me on this product. 24g Protein, 110 cals, 1g sugar, and 30mg of cholesterol beating out my old protein in every category. My favorite flavors were tropical punch , strawberry, double rich chocolate and cookies and cream. I would recommend this product to a friend and would definitely buy again.

I was afraid to start taking this to be perfectly honest. I kept hearing "Oh this is the best protein in the world!!!" ect ect... Which to be honest, it isn't. It's only 78-9% protein by weight. I do get a little bloat when I drink it. But for the price its really good. And it is one of the best tasting on the market. So yes, it's good. and I do recommend it.

Reviewer: Betty in Arizona
I've just experienced my first dose of the "root beer float" flavor, and it's yucky! I don't recommend it. It does mix well, taste is smooth, not chalky, I find with all the protein powders I've used that if I sit them in the fridge for 10-15 min. all lumps dissolve. With so many good reviews I was expecting a better tasting product, hopefully it's just this flavor that's lacking.

A good bargain for the price, but definitely not the best protein mix you will find at Netrition.Com. There isn't much taste to the Tropical Punch flavor, no matter what the ratio of powder to water. Bland is about the best way that I can describe it. It doesn't leave a bad aftertaste though, and tastes more like flavored water than anything else.

This definitely does not dissolve in water all that easily. It kept clumping when I tried mixing it with a fork. Not as bad as most of the chocolate flavored mixes you will find, but still noticeable. You'll probably want to use a shaker bottle for this mix instead of using a spoon.

There are some other mixes you can get here that certainly aren't as cheap, but are better tasting and have a better nutritional makeup. You might want to also look at Syntrax Nectar, if you don't mind spending the extra money. Unlike this product, the Nectar flavors that I tried taste MUCH better, have NO sugars, NO carbohydrates, NO fat and 90% less cholesterol. On top of that, for only 1g less protein, there are 30 less calories per serving.

You get what you pay for. This is a decent product, but I would rather spend the extra money on better flavor, less cholesterol and (important to me, being diabetic) no sugar.
