ON is the WHEY to go!,
good stuff… comparing the nutritional label to the CytoSport from the Makers of Muscle Milk 6 lb bag I usually get at Costco for $30’s, but the price is creeping up increasingly. I’ve also bought EAS Whey which among these 3 I’d rate bottom on taste and mixability, it also gave me a bloaty/gassy feeling. The ON has a lot less Cholesterol, Fat, and Sodium per serving. Both of their chocolate flavors taste great. I work out everyday doing 5-8 mi of running, followed by weight/strength training so I ordered 2 – 10 lb bags w/ Amazon’s Subscribe and Save for my morning protein smoothie and my post work out protein supplement.
Price is good/competitive w/ the S&S and cost effective bulk sizing
Nutritional facts are good
Taste is good
Mixes and goes down well even in plain water.
here is the Nutritional facts from the 3 that I’ve tried. Unless I find something better or Amazon raises the price a lot I’m sticking w/ ON and have Subscribe and Save set up for a shipment every 3 months.

Good quality but prices are up 60% in the last 4 months!,
I’ve been buying Optimum Nutrition’s whey protein for a few years now and I believe it is high quality whey protein, but . . .
I am extremely disappointed with the way the company is JACKING UP THE PRICES. The price of this stuff on Amazon four months ago was $50 for a 10 pound bag – now it’s $79! The price has skyrocked up 60% in the last four months – this is ridiculous!
If they don’t come back to reality and drop their prices down soon I’m going to have to look for something else – Optimum Nutrition is doing a MAJOR DISSERVICE to their long-time customers.
