Well crap... Optimum Nutrition protein powders are no longer available through Amazon's subscribe & save... we need a new powder... or pay more for non-sub&save powder.

New choices are: CytoSport Complete Whey Protein or Warrior Whey by TapouT

Opinions? Don't like overly sweet... at all.

    Xtreme Formulations has the best tasting products on the market, IMO.

    9.95 for 14 servings. As far as taste all the reviews said it tasted better than the body fortress whey protein. One said it was very similar to the taste of Nesquik. I'm super cheap tho so I'll probably take 10 bucks over 50 any day lol

    About 14 oz. 15 g protein. 71 cents per oz. Optimum whey 5lb size. 57 cents per oz. 24g of protein per serving. With almond milk, banana, it tastes great. You're pay 24% more per serving. Why not buy in a bigger size anyway? You know you're going to use it.

    I'm researching Dymatize Elite right now. I've read it's pretty tasty. To be sure I've asked a couple of people here on MFP who use it for their opinion. I'll let you know. I found this great website: netrition.com, I haven't ordered yet, but it's products are discounted and there's a flat rate shipping fee of $4.95.

    Try Myofusion Protein Powder... It's about 25 dollars for a two pound tub on amazon.

    Got a good range of flavors and not overly sweet. I have Chocolate Peanut Butter and it's def not that sweet, but still has a good taste.

    I'm finishing up the vanilla flavored one and it's ok.... Nothing to shout about.. I mix mine into a smoothie after workouts, drinking it on it's own is not that great...

    I use prograde vanilla whey protein from prograde.com ..sometimes I can get plain whey protein powder from the bulk section of the health food store and mix them...Prograde is not too sweet, tastes good, and the website has deals where they can be purchased at a reduced price......usually with 15% off I usually buy a case of six on sale, get free shipping and am set for quite a while........
