bump, going protein powder shopping in a few weeks and will use this as a reference!0

I've used Champion Pure Whey Stack Chocolate for about 10 years. It tastes like Nestle's Quik when mixed with water. No lumps no icky after taste. I usually dump a tbsp of coffee creamer in there (using Almond Joy right now), add water and ice, mix and go.
That's one thing I hate about protein drink questions. EVERY SINGLE POSTER seems to have a different preference, lol. No majority rules here as everyone has something different that tastes the best. Oh well. If you want to buy samples, go here: www.vitalady.com
She'll send you a single serving sample of any brand or flavor that she sells for a couple of bucks. At least by doing that you can try a few and not spend $40-$60 on a jug that you end up hating.0 -
not all taste buds are created equal. You might try going to a suppliments store, several of them in my area at least offer samples or have money back offers even if it's because you don't like the taste. The first jar might set you back a pretty penny doing it that way but when you find a brand you like you can always find a cheaper source to buy it.0

Thanks for the suggestions everyone!!! I'll let you know how it goes once I find something new over the weekend!0

If you add a bit of unsweetened cocoa powder to any chocolate protein powder it amps up the chocolateyness by about a million, for very little added calories. You can add some stevia, too, if it's a bit too bitter- I like dark chocolate so i don't add much extra sweetner. Might take a little extra mixing, but it works.0

Optimum Nutrition - Double Rich Chocolate. I mix it with unsweetened almond milk and it tastes JUST like chocolate milk. Seriously.. I'm crazy picky. 120 calories, 24g protein.
YES! Thank you so much for the suggestion-- I also mix mine with unsweetened almond milk and wanted something that tasted more like chocolate milk. I just bought mine at GNC ($25 for 1 pound, 15 servings per jar), and came home to try it out... It tastes wonderful! Very goood/smooth chocolate flavor, not medicinal, and no funky after taste. No need to add anything (ie- cocoa) to make it taste better. I am SO excited right now!!
For the rest of you who may be interested, it's Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Protein- Double Rich Chocolate. Nutrition per serving: 120 cals, 1.5g fat, .5g saturated fat, 30mg Cholesterol, 60mg Sodium, 3g carbs, 1g sugar, 23g protein.
I'm so excited to embark on my new protein shake adventure! In the future, I'll buy it direct from Amazon in the 5-pound jugs ($53, estimate 75 servings/jar), and keep my 1-pound jug as a counter-friendly one.0 -

Muscle milk light chocolate is my favorite tasting. It also tastes decent in just in water.
It's my favorite muscle milk flavor actually (even vs the non-light versions).0 -

I like the Promasil Milk Chocolate (sells at GNC - join the Gold Card club and you get a discount the first 7 days of every month). 90 calories and 20g protein I believe. And no weird sugar substitutes.0

Dymatize and Nutrex Muscle Infusion Black are my favorite for chocolate. I also heard Trutein tastes delicious, especially if you're into cinnabuns or whatever.0

This is the one we went with, and are now 5 or 6 containers in. It's delicious, even just mixed with water. For super-awesomeness following a great lifting session and run, add a frozen banana and milk. So yummy!0 -

Oh yeah, that is my favorite! A little crushed ice too, just to get it nice and cold!! I've tried others but keep coming back because of the taste and the texture. As we say in the culinary industry, great mouthfeel!0 -

Still loving this stuff! Also bought it at The Vitamin Shoppe in my area; they have various locations, online presence with free shipping for orders $25 & over, and even their in-store pricing is equivalent to Amazon! I've lost 2.2 pounds in the last 2 weeks since using this and tracking consistently on MFP. I'm sold!!0 -

This is the one I was going to recommend. I LOVE this one. It's thick and tastes like chocolate. I never mix it with anything but plain old water, and I don't taste anything but rich, thick chocolate.0 -
