What is everyone's favorite Whey Protein Isolate? I was thinking about trying this one, it seems to be incredibly popular & get great reviews. Is it as good as it's made out to be? It should be for the price lol! But I'm open to other suggestions a well.oe6fc5plyq86.jpg

    I buy mine at Target; their Market Pantry brand. It's 25g of protein for 150 calories, under $20 for 2lbs, and I like the taste. I think they only have vanilla and chocolate, but vanilla is all I usually buy anyway, so it's perfect for me.

    ON Gold Standard is, well, the gold standard of whey (although it's mostly concentrate, not isolate). Tastes great and has a solid nutritional profile. As you have noted, it's not easy on the wallet.

    MyProtein's Impact Whey is my go-to. It's similar to ON but at a fraction of the price. I also buy MusclePharm Combat Powder when it's on sale at Costco.

    Designer Whey - can be found at Dillons/Kroger supermarkets.
    100 calories, no sugar and is fine with water.

    I mix it with milk and a chocolate milk powder, and you can't taste the protein powder at all.

    I like Syntrax Sweet Chocolate Truffle. 1 scoop = 0 carbs, 0 fat, 23g protein, 100 cals. Dissolves very good in water or milk and has a great chocolate taste. If you close your eyes almost think it's a chocolate shake (ok, not really... but ok)

    On Gold Standard without a doubt! Nothing even comes close to it imo.

    I'm currently using Dymatize Elite, which is a whey/casein blend (mix of fast- and slow-digesting proteins). Nothing wrong with Optimum Nutrition, though - it's a good product and gets consistently high reviews.

    I don't use whey protein as much anymore since it tends to not agree well with my stomach anymore, but I loved Tera's Whey when I still used it. There weren't any added fillers or presevatives and you could either get it USDA Organic or RBST-Free. Everything flavored was sweetened with stevia, and they all tasted really good. French vanilla was delicious (and used fair trade certified vanilla, too!), but chocolate was really yummy too. I think they naked a coffee and a berry flavor too, but I never tried those.

    Ooo +1 I forgot about Tera. The unflavored and bourbon vanilla is amazing!

    I've not tried many.
    Dynamatize Elite 100% Whey rich chocolate (mixed with milk tastes just like chocolate milk)
    Tried Dynamatize Natural Elite and Iso Prime ( which is all isolate and no concentrate ), both tasted more like a yoohoo than chocolate milk so I didn't really like them.

    Eat the Bear is amazing.

    But now that I have bills, I go for ON Gold Standard. Tastes great and I can buy twice as much for the same cost as a 2lb container of ETB.

    Quest protein is pretty good too, but I really only use it because it's a lot better for baking than ON is.
