    Optimum Nutrition seems to be the way to go for a good balance between taste and quality of content.

    Yup. Agree with Nooomoto. Optimum has always given me good results. Extreme Milk Chocolate 100% whey is really good...add a couple tbs of peanut butter in blender and wow!!!

    I can't do "On" anymore. It was my favorite. Then I tried Myofusion. At first I hated the thickness of Myofusion, but I grew to love it. Now I hate the super-liquidy "On".... I gotta have it thick!!

    Now I just take ProNOS. It is only $19.99 on TF for 3lbs, so I get a shitload of that. It is $100 for 15lbs

    I just bought a big bottle of optimum nutrition nitro core 24 at GNC for 10 bucks on the clearance rack. I think it was on there because it tastes like garbage. I'm used to it though and it seems to be quality other than the taste.

    I was just on their site and saw something called oats and whey. Has anyone tried that stuff? It looks like a good way to get some quality fiber in with your protein.

    ON Nitro Core tastes like cardboard…”CARDBOARD CORE!!” –“FREEL THE POWER OF ‘REAL’ CARDBOARD!!!!” …haha…good quality though…I have used the Oats & Whey and I really liked using it with breakfast and mixing some with post workout…good stuff!

    ON is good to me but I also like Dymatize 12 hour proteins taste and texture. The fudge brownie tastes just like brownie batter. The Dymatize whey Isolate is good too and mixes very well but does have a thin texture.

    Disclaimer: There is no such thing as 12 hr digesting protein

    Ok got it. Once you become an experienced athlete like yourself you move past protein. Protein is only for Novices because it is a waste. Also, there are "kangaroo sausages" sold all over the place in other countries. They have them at my McDonalds in South Carolina and my Taco Bell in Florida.

    Glad to see that the vets like yourself are immune to the shiity protein supplement

    why act like an ass? im sorry that i rather eat real meat and not pay 4x the price for some shit protien shake made by some multimillion dollar company, thats plain and simple ripping people off.
    i dont give a fvck what you think about me eating kangeroo but i was just stating how high the nutritional value is in them, and how affordable it is for me.

    pretty sure this thread was about what protien works best for you and i am actually contributing to this thread by stating a better alternative for protien shakes and maybe that post could have given someone some idea's about alternatives that they could maybe open there eyes to, but obviously people on here are to closed minded to think like that.

    so go ahead and post ur shit threads trying to rip on people and outwit one another, your only contributing to making the site a shitter place. it is about learning from one another and contributing usefull information.

    heres some stats say you get your have 2 protien shakes a day-

    say per serve your protien shakes cost you $2 thats $1460 a year

    say per serve of real meat protien cost you $1 (which is what i pay) $730 a year (plus you get essiential minerals like iron etc)


    pretty sure i know which one is best and if you argue that protien shakes are better then real food your either a uneducated noob who thinks they know everything about nutrition, or your a skinny little wheener b*tch that wonders why they ar'nt growing.

    have fun with your ripping losers, im off to find some posts where some people actually made some good contributions.

    this really isn't relevant but the stupid maths irritates me

    who the hell pays $2 a serve for a shake?!

    optimum nutrition 3kg tub, 77 serves, $40 off a1supps.com

    $40/77 = 51c per serve
    x2 a day = $1.02 per day
    x365 days in a year = $372 per year

    half the price of your meat

    i love optimum. 100% whey gold or classic whey - doesn't matter. i love mocha cappucino, chocolate and strawberry flavours. chocolate mint seemed fine too. currently using vpx syngex serious chocolate flavour, and it's pretty awesome

    Muscle Millk Casein Cookies & Cream mixed with milk, best drink ever!

  33. #33
    Monster Milk! All I've tried so far is peanut butter chocolate and its good. I take only one scoop instead of two, still 25g of protein and less fat, calories, etc than Muscle Muscle Milk light. Just ordered mocha latte and cake batter! I mix with non fat or light yogurt for a creamy taste and sometimes mix with ice in a blender. Even throw some fruit and Wheaties Fuel in there. YUM YUM.

    I never said protein powder was better than whole food protein.

    You claimed that if we were smart we sould stop buying protein.

    Basiclly that only "newbs" buy protein. I hate that fvcking word "newb" by the way

    You knocked the best-selling supplement in the world. Show me a successul bodybuilder who does not occasionally supplement with protein.

    Next time you want to call us un-educated for buying protein powder, take a step back and refrain

    actually i claimed that if your smart you will find a better alternative. you will actually still be buying protien it will just be from a different source ie= meat.

    yes i did "knock" the best selling "supplement" in the world. You know why it is the best selling supplement in the world, because "everybody's doin it" so why not be a sheep and follow yourself right into one of the biggest scams out there. and it is usually amatures that go on about how good there protien works and what different types.
    i dont see any big guys at my gym talking about if they take iso post workout and casien before bed, and how great tasting it is.

    dont get me wrong i think high protien is essential but im stating better ways that are more affordable and also with a higher nutritional value.
    so why should i refrain from saying anything i have said??

    and i never said your "un educated for buying protien" i said if you think protien powder is better then real food, your un educated.....

    get the facts straight before you go talking trash

    not here to argue dude im here to contribute

    Good for you, you eat kangaroo meat after your workout. For some of us, it's not about the money, it's a lot more to do with the fact that after a heavy workout, sometimes you're drained to the point you can't even physically sit down to eat properly, and in this case a protein shake is the most convenient and easiest thing to consume.

    Also some of us don't have the time to eat 6 meals of real food a day because we have others things besides gym in our lives.

    Your comments are immature, it's like you're pissed of at people who use protein powders, jealously or something, why do you even give a fuk? Eat your kangaroo meat and keep to yourself lol.

    My 0.2c



    Now back to the original thread, I personally find truemass and syntha-6 the best tasting.


    Cookies and cream, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmm

    I am still waiting for the kangaroo flavored protien ...... ......
    Some bad news BK, just found out yesterday that it will only be available in Australasia. I've heard wild donkey is pretty close tasting though.

    lol no popcorn necesary. I have no hard feelings towards ...aydn...

    I just found it quite odd that he would claim protein powder to be an unwise decision. If somebody is using protein for 1/2 of their daily intake, then there are problems. But there is nothing wrong with having a shake post workout and before bed.
