Great stuff by S. Alsobrook (Atlanta, GA USA) 5 Stars
November 04, 2009
While I'm not any sort of expert on whey, I tried a couple other kinds before finding this one and it is definitely better. For one thing, when mixed with milk this really tastes good so that's a huge plus, and it also mixes really well. The other whey powder I tried was much more clumpy after being mixed so it was a pleasant surprise to be able to drink this one without chunks of the powder stuff still floating around.
Highly recommended!

Flavor Review by Chiro Kid (Bloomington, MN USA) 5 Stars
October 29, 2009
I recently purchased the variety pack from ON and wrote a little review about each flavor. Hopefully it can help you choose a flavor you will enjoy. This is a high quality whey protein and an essential for anyone who spends time with weights at the gym. With all the fast absorbing protein and BCAA's your muscles will be able to recover faster and in turn you will see quicker gains. Hope this helps!
ON Variety Pack Flavor Ratings
Banana Cream 5/5
* Tastes like banana laffy taffy. Best banana I have had in a protein powder. Rich, sweet, creamy and delicious!
Chocolate Malt 3/5
* Pretty good taste, but a little too rich and creamy. More of a malty than expected or wanted.
Cookies and Cream 5/5
* Very rich and creamy! I have never had a good tasting whey protein in this flavor, but this one was actually really good. Good and creamy and will hit your sweet tooth cravings! No weird "cookie" chunks like you sometimes see with this flavor.
Double Rich Chocolate 4/5
* Very rich chocolate flavor, just like the name! Tastes like creamy chocolate milk.
French Vanilla 4/5
* Good and creamy vanilla flavor. It was very good, but I have had better tasting vanilla whey
Orange Cream 2/5
* Not bad, but not good either. Taste like what you would think, sort of like a orange push pop. Not a flavor I would want to indulge in regularily.
Root Beer Float 3/5
* Did not really taste like a root beer float to me. I can taste a little similarity, but it wasn't close. Still rich and sweet, good taste but it would get old quickly.
Tropical Punch 4/5
* Tastes exactly like Hawaiian Punch! Very good and incredibly refreshing after a hard workout.
Caramel Toffee Fudge 3/5
* Interesting taste, not what I expected. I think it's the after-taste that's goofy. Good and creamy; caramel and toffee are the most noticeable flavors in it. Not something I would want to drink on a regular basis though.
Chocolate Mint 1/5
* Smells like an Andes mint; tastes decent but would get old really fast.
Delicious Strawberry 4/5
* Good and creamy. No metallic-like taste normally found in strawberry powders. Very good flavor, but not a long-term choice for me.
Extreme Milk Chocolate 5/5
* Delicious, creamy milk chocolate taste. Similar to chocolate milk but not quite as thick, though you could make it thicker by using less liquid.
Mocha Cappuccino 5/5
* Yum! Just a hint of coffee flavor to it, mostly a chocolate taste similar to hot cocoa. Not overwhelming, very good. Not too rich or creamy.
Rocky Road 2/5
* Good taste, light chocolaty flavor. I would not want to drink this regularly. Has an interesting after-taste
Strawberry Banana 4/5
* Very sweet. Not too thick or creamy, very good texture. Great taste, but a little too sweet for my liking, and I would tire of it quickly.
Vanilla Ice Cream 5/5
* Tastes like the name! Creamy consistency and delicious taste.

Excellent protein powder! by R. Hannig 5 Stars
October 27, 2009
Our family has used Optimum Gold Standard 100% Whey for years. Both my adult boys are athletes and use it every day. One of them is sensitive to milk products and this does not upset his system at all. My husband is a bodybuilder and feels that this is one of the best products of its kind on the market. We make smoothies, use it in coffee drinks, mix is on the go with water ... whatever the use, it tastes great. We like vanilla as it mixes best with all types of frozen and fresh fruit.

Sometimes slower is better - especially when it comes to the rate of protein digestion. While rapid protein absorption is desirable immediately before or after exercise, delayed release is probably more beneficial throughout the remainder of the day.
Casein proteins are pH sensitive and gel in the acidic environment of the stomach. As a result, it can take more than twice as long for caseins to be broken-down into their amino acid subcomponents than whey and other proteins. Because of...
