Seems to be a consensus that it's the best for a number of reasons. Is it regular powder that you mix with water in a shaker cup? Do they sell it in any stores or just online?

    whose consensus?

    I use gold standard- it's reliable consistent- and moderately priced.

    Get which ever one meets your budget- whey is whey - unless you're looking for extra's in it- don't make yourself crazy over it.

    in terms of flavor and quality, I saw a lot of references on here in a lot of good reviews, and I looked online and it consistently got great reviews.

    I like Trutein. It was all I bought for 2 years, then I got it in my head to try Optimum Nutrition based on what I read. I hate it.

    Trutein has samples on their website (bodynutrition.com). Try some and see. It's mostly just a matter of preference.

    Trutein is a great protein powder that you mix with water and blows Gold Standard out of the water because it's not a straight whey protein. It's a blend protein that consist of whey, casein, and egg white protein for maximum protein synthesis. Sample are available at their site. Flavoring is beyond phenomenonal.

    It's not only for people to bulk up is it?

    It has calories, just like any other food. You will only bulk up if you consistently eat above your maintenance calories. If you use it while keeping a caloric deficit you won't "bulk up."

    I've been using Trutein. Calorie count is pretty low for the protein punch. I like it because it allows me to eat comfortably the rest of the day without constantly worrying about how much protein I'm consuming.

    I like the chocolate truffle. I have the chocolate peanut butter now but I'm not that big of a fan.
