    ON Gold Standard

    safest bet right here. I've tried tons and while most are somewhat palatable ON has never disappointed. Get rocky road. Myprotein is a better deal on sale, but ON is isolate which is the same price as Myprotein's isolate. Their regular whey is very cheap though.

    ON Gold Standard isn't isolate. It's primarily concentrate and is significantly more expensive than its Myprotein counterpart (Impact Whey).

    Yep not sure what I was thinking- ON Gold Standard is only 80% and my myprotein isolate is 90% - that being said the taste on ON was still better.

    ON blends nicely even in oatmeal- myprotein isolate gets chunky fast with any heat and I found needed to be in a blender for good mixing. ON is unfortunately $30 a lb for gold standard and you can snag myprotein for under $20.

    Isolate has a better protein % to calories/grams so a leaner profile- gold standard is a blend which has higher carbs and a slightly lower protein % to weight/calories.

    It's 80% whey protein by calories. The whey is an isolate/concentrate blend.

    ON makes an isolate that is called, you guessed it, Isolate.

    BSN Syntha 6. The flavors are better than any others I've tried. I recently bought the cookies and cream and chocolate cake batter. You'll love.

    It works out to be both grams and cals, actually, at least on my tubs (25g protein per 31g serving). I don't know how anyone could afford ON isolate on a regular basis. If you're that serious just buy steaks every day with the cash...darn.
