Has anyone ever tried their protein powder? Does it mix well and does it taste good?

Thanks

I love the PB Chocolate. I really really dislike the Vanilla Ice Cream Royale or something like that. They mix really well though.

I LOVE the Chocolate PB....I just got the mint chocolate and I'm a bit disappointed. :(

We just got the PB chocolate and I'm really happy with it, but the flavor is just a little too nutty for me. I'm hoping to get just a plain chocolate one next time.

Well, I love Vanilla Ice Cream best and then PB Chocolate. I tried Cookies n Cream and it wasn't so good. Weird aftertaste if mixed with water only, but it actually works fine with yogurt.

I'm on my third 2lbs of Vanilla and my second PB Chocolate.

They should sell sample bags so people could try before they buy the big container. I want to buy some but I'm scared I won't like the flavor!

at sport nutrition depot in canada, they sell sample packs so that you can try it out before you buy 2l of it. it is a huge help - and they have a big variety of flavours to choose from - theyeven have samples of their PVL Whey cooler product.

The chocolate mint is my favorite one, it is so good. The Dark Chocolate mousse is alright but not that great and the choc pb is good too!

PB Chocolate is my favorite. Right now I am mixing it with the not so great stuff I bought at Sams Club.

I want to try the choco mint.

I have tried the PB Choc (ok...) and white chocolate (only for cooking)

Add a teaspoon of any crystal light to the vanilla pp and it tastes like a totally different shake!

Like:

Peach Cooler-- tastes kind of like that peach fountain drink
Chocolate Peanut Butter-- almost like Reese's (but can be too rich on a really hot day)
Creamy Dreamy Milk Chocolate-- good, a little sweet

Meh:
Vanilla Ice Cream Royale-- super, super sweet, but okay blended with tart berries

Hate:
Orange Dreamsicle
Strawberry Banana

LOVE the PB Choc and Dark Choc Mousse

really like the Raspberry

of course vanill and choc are good too.

PVL is absolutely the only whey that I can mix with water and drink straight up

I love the vanilla and it is my staple pp, however I do like PB choc and Cookies n cream. They mix great and you can just eat them without "doctoring" the taste. Caramel Dip is DISGUSTING!!!

I've seen little samples at Wal Mart and GNC. Also at Wal-Mart they have much smaller containers, I think 1 lb., so you can try them like that too. I don't like trying new flavours cos I don't wanna plunk down $30 on something I might not like and will toss in the garbage.

PB Chocolate is my fav. I tried the cookies and cream, and it was OK. It actually tastes good in cottage cheese, but mixed in water, not so much. Really didn't have much of a taste. Creamy dreamy chocolate was good, but nothing beats the PB chocolate :cool:

PB choc is really good, as is milk chocolate and the raspberry.
Also, the arctic cappuccino is quite yummy, with this one I blend it with some skim or 1% milk and crushed ice in a blender - its very good - my version of a tim horton's ice cap! :)

Although I hadn't been a big mint fan, I tried it again last night. I put ice, water, the powder, and a little Stevia-toffee flavored drops (liquid), and it turned out quite yummy. :)

PB Chocolate is awesome! I feel like I'm cheating whenever I have a shake.

I wish my Wal mart had sample packs :(

Pretty much all the Whey Gourmets taste yummy-depends on your TASTE preference.

I find that Whey Gourmet gives me bad stomach aches/gas compared to other PURE wheys-isolates. I think they might have more art sweetners, or fillers I was once told.

What you can do if you are not sure on the taste-is buy it from GNC. If you dont like it-they will return it even if you have used some. Thats what i did with the blueberry one-it tasted SO artifical.

Thats what they do at the GNC here in Canada-maybe ask before you buy it.

I love the PB chocolate.

The Carmel flavor is not so good by itself. Mixed with CC and PB is ok. But take 1/2 scoop of the PB chocolate and 1/2 scoop of the Carmel blended with water and ice is really good.

The raspberry is a nice change once in a while.

Also Vitamin Shoppe lets you buy, try and return if you don't like it, even the big containers!!!

Whey protein isolates are virtually lactose free and easier on the tummy than other forms of whey protein. I use Natures Best Isopure because I'm lactose intolerant. That may explain why some people's tummies are more senstive to the proteins found in the Whey Gourmet, it's not a pure isolate.

Choc PB rocks! I've tried Choc Chip Mint, which was OK. I'm on the Strawberry Banana right now, and it's not my fav. I'm more partial to the choc flavors. All this talk about the Choc PB makes me want to order a tub right now... :)

Hi Everyone,

I've checked many locations in my area (San Jose, California - near San Francisco) and no one seems to sell Whey Gourmet! I've called a couple Walmarts, a few GNCs, VitaminShoppe, 24Hr Fitness, and other stores with no luck.

I'd like to buy them in person to save shipping costs, and try to find the packets so I can taste the flavors before I buy. Can anyone help me? Does anyone know of a location near me that has Whey Gourmet? If not, is there a great place online I didn't know about?

Thanks in advance!

Some online shops charge less w/ shipping than stores do in person. Also, many online retailers offer free shipping; you just have to look for it. :)

I usually get mine from bodybuilding.com...the shipping is like 6 bucks, and I usually get it in 2 days or less. I just ordered the Milk Chocolate flavor today actually. My total order was around 26 or 27 dollars. It stinks not being able to taste the flavors before...but I don't think I've gotten a really horrible tasting one yet.

PVL and Syntrex rocks :)

we really need a sticky for PP - nothing wrong with asking "what tastes good" but seriously - seems like one pops up or is bumped every week.

Yes, sticky on Protien Powders. And a sticky that explains all of the acronyms on this board.
