Tried and True
I have been using this product for years. Moderately priced and easily digestible. I use it almost every morning in my smoothie. Flavors are good and doesn't have a weird artificial sweetness that some do.

GREAT TASTE & easy to mix
This has been my go-to powder for years. I love the versatile use of the Vanilla Whey. It mixes easily into my yogurt or cottage cheese for an extra protein kick but also makes a great protein drink in the blender. I have used the vanilla when I traveled and added it to water in a pinch. reminded me of powder milk we used to have as a kid. I recommend to all my clients

Great protein
I have tried many protein powders, and this has definitely been a staple in my house. It mixes easily with fruit to give you a great recovery shake and doesn’t leave an aftertaste.

Chemicals in a container
People should take the time to look at the ingredient list for this product that claims to be "100% whey". Assortment of atleast 20 different chemicals and artificial sweeteners. The only thing you can expect from this is cancer a few years down the line.

Great tasting protein!
This has become my go-to daily protein powder. I love the flavor - goes well by itself, in shakes and smoothies, and recently been using it to make ice cream as well. Super versatile and tasty!

Great Protien
The Vanilla flavor of Optimum Nutrition’s Gold Standard 100% Whey has become one of my favorite protein powders (I also really like the Strawberry flavor as well). Each serving delivers 24g of high-quality whey protein, which has been great for helping me build and maintain muscle alongside my regular training routine. I also like that it contains 5.5g of naturally occurring BCAAs, giving me extra support for muscle recovery after tough workouts. It mixes smoothly and tastes amazing. One thing I like is how versatile it is. It works perfectly before or after a workout, as a snack between meals, or my daughter even likes to blend it into her smoothies when she is trying to make healthy meal choices. Optimum Nutrition’s commitment to quality is another big plus. The powder is made with strict quality control, which gives me confidence in what I’m putting into my body. There’s a reason Optimum Nutrition is considered the #1 sports nutrition brand in the world—their products are consistent, reliable, and effective. Highly recommend!

Great choice.
This is a great flavor protein powder, I enjoy getting to drink it post workout. It does not leave a chalky after taste like other chocolate flavored protien powders. It is soluble in milk which is great. It also does not leave chunks in the shake. Overall this is a well balanced product and I am happy to share this product with anyone interested in a flavorful,healthy, protein powder. I am currently a couple of serving away from being empty and will be purchasing some more when it’s gone.

Saved me from starvation!
My husband purchased this product for me because I was suffering with malnutrition due to medical issues. This product saved my life, I couldn’t eat I would get so sick but this product stayed down and I started to recover. I still use it everyday and love the vanilla ice cream as well as the chocolate

A bit strong
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a bit overbearing. Too strong of a taste and I typically prefer my protein powders to not have a dominant flavor profile. The packaging was nice.

Best Chocolate Protein Powdwr
Overall great taste and consistency whether using water or milk to mix with. The chocolate taste is great but I wish there was more of a peanut butter taste.

Gold Standard Protein
The name fits. ON offers the best tasting, most readily available protein with good macros on the market. There’s a reason it’s stuck around for such a long time and continues to be so popular. I started using it because of the taste but stuck around because it felt like it was working. Works well blended in smoothies or a simple shaker bottle. Easily dissolvable.

Great protein that tastes great. There are many different flavors that they offer. All of which is low sugar. It dissolves nicely in shakers. Great for any workout or even for a high protein diet. The taste of the strawberry tastes more like strawberry quick though it tastes pretty good it might get a little old for someone that does not like strawberry as much. Great product from a great company
