    I love this protein! A winner for fruity pebble lovers. Shakes up well and blends to a smooth texture. I throw 2 scoops in with ice and the blender ball. Serves as my mid-morning filler so I avoid eating junk food and get some extra protein. My only wish is that it came in a larger size!

    Best Flavor they offer. Was a big fan of Optimum before I knew they were apart of expert voice and this made it all better. Will continue to use this brand and make sure I let everyone know how much there products work and are second to none. My son is a teenager and will make sure he uses Optimum in the future so he can see the benefits and cash in on the value and flavoring I have for so many years!

    I’ve used many different protein products in my life and this one is near the top of all of them for its quality, results, and taste. Most the flavors are good, but there are a few that just don’t hit the spot for me. Either way that is my preference. This cinnamon was great, but I’d stick to Vanilla Ice Cream and just make whatever flavor on my own. Love it and highly recommend it.

    Over all I give this protein a 4 out of 5. Only because I am not a huge fan of the flavor. The protein mixes well and digest good.

    Classic protein power, mixes in water easily and dissolves well with no clumping in a standard shaker bottle with a ball. I got the fruity cereal flavor which is good, I prefer to dissolve it in 8-12floz vs. the standard 4oz for a more sports drink like flavor.

    If you are not sensitive to food additives, this is a good whey protein option because it dissolves well in water without having to use a blender or shaker bottle. I'm always on the go and don't have the luxury of using a blender. I like that I can just carry the powder in my bottle and mix with water when i'm ready to use it and it doesn't stay clumpy like other powders on the market.

    Flavory is super weak with just water. Its not bad with some oat milk. I use to replace breakfast. Going to try some different flavors down the road. Pro: Flavor is accurate, you get a lot for what you pay Con: Flavor is kind of weak compare to similar products

    I’ve been using this protein powder and it’s been solid. Mixes pretty well, tastes decent, and doesn’t leave that chalky aftertaste a lot of others do. I’ve noticed it helps me hit my protein goals more easily, whether I’m using it post-workout or just as a quick shake during the day. Overall, it’s convenient, effective, and worth trying if you’re looking for a reliable protein boost.
