Product Reviews of Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard Natural Whey, Natural Chocolate, 5 Pound
Product Review: Good taste depending on how you mix it
Summary: 4 Stars
Good with water. Better with milk. Great with instant oatmeal. Doesn't work in yogurt. I liked the taste of the same brand Vanilla Ice Cream flavor better, but this one's not too bad.Product Review: Good tasting, effective, and affordable.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have found this protein powder to be actually quite good tasting. Mixed with some milk, and put through a blender, it is almost as tasty as regular chocolate milk. I have also drank it with water, and it is not bad tasting that way either, although milk enhances the taste very much.
I think it is best to use a blender to achieve the best results. No matter how much you mix it with a spoon, the powder will not blend with the milk as well as if you use a blender.
As for its effectiveness, I can vouch for it. It is a good source of protein.
I am on my second tub now, and I will continue buying more because it is just that good.
Product Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
My last purchase of this brand of whey protein was the non-natural vanilla. I found it to be far too sweet and, well, sort of synthetic tasting, in an unwholesome way. The taste of the natural chocolate is far superior. It tastes more or less like chocolate milk (make sure to mix this with milk, btw. I haven't tried the chocolate kind with water, but it was a struggle to finish the vanilla when mixed with water), except slightly less sweet.
Taste aside, does this product help to build muscle? This is hard to say, as I've only been working out for about six weeks. However, about a month ago I purchased two twenty pound dumbbells. At first, I could barely do four reps of bicep curls. The other night, I was able to break twelve reps. Now, is this because I've been using this product? It's hard to say, but I'm sure it has helped.
Product Review: Great Product All-Around
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using this protein mix (along with ON's Natural Pro-Complex & Natural Casein) for nearly a month now and I have nothing but good things to say about all of these products. The taste is delicious for something naturally sweetened (in one review a customer points out that stevia is an artificial sweetener and in the same review states that it comes from a leaf thus proving that it is not artificial). I personally don't think it mixes well with a spoon but shaking it in a lidded container will break up any powder that clumped together. Finally, the price on Amazon is the lowest one I've found, especially compared to in-store prices. Overall, I'd recommend this powder, along with the rest of ON's Natural product line, to anyone with any interest in any level of fitness, nutrition, or bodybuilding.Product Review: Great Product Great Service

I have tried this before so I knew what I wanted. I like the product, I just have to mix with water and shake it and drink it. NO hassle of a mixer..... The taste is good. Amazon's delivery is good and the price was right!
