Tastes Great!,
I like vanilla vs. chocolate – more versatile. Can always add chocolate flavor or mocha mix, etc.. The French Vanilla Creme mixes well and tastes great – no after taste. Besides my afternoon fruit smoothies, I add some to my morning (Kashi) cereal to up my protein intake in morning. I add some frozen triple berries (Costco) to my bowl, thaw in microwave, add about 1/2 scoop over berries, add low carb, hi protein Kahsi cereal, top with fresh bananas and or strawberries, add Silk Almond Milk or Coconut milk and voila, have a complete meal with balanced Protein, Carbs, Fats. I also tried and liked ON vanilla Ice Cream. Very similar to the French Creme. I switched my subscription from the vanilla ice creme to French vanilla creme – so I guess subconsciously I give the French vanilla creme a slightly higher rating. As for nutritional value – I’ve found Optimum Nutrition to have quality products. I’ll let others that know more about nutrition write about that… but as far as taste – this is a great product. Mixes well without lumps (I use a blender) and tastes great.
I also add a little to pancake mix when making pancakes… and add some berries (triple mix or blueberries). If not eating meat, it is hard to get protein level to where it should be (for me about 25gm per meal). I read that using protein powder should not exceed 50% of your daily protein intake. In other words, is not a substitute for high quality meat protein.
I also use Muscle Milk (purchased at Costco) and alternate using ON and MM… MM also taste great (Vanilla & Chocolate) and mixes well… between the 2 I prefer ON Gold Standard.

So far so good!,
I’m weight training to be less of a noodle and this protein has really made a difference. My only advice would be to be choosy about the flavor you pick. You’ll be stuck with it for a while as this powder goes a long whey (tee hee).
I tried a 1lb bag of the French Vanilla Creme first and loved every scoopful. Just mixed it with water and loved the flavor. Even looked forward to drinking it after my workouts. After the trial run I purchased a 2lb bottle of Delicious Strawberry and YUCK! It doesn’t mix as well with a spoon (though a shaker works great!) and it’s got a weird taste to it. Artificial strawberry, not natural strawberry. I’m starting to get used to it, as I’m not going to let it go to waste, but I had to come online to find the French Vanilla Creme to order more, as my local vitamin shops don’t seem to carry it regularly.

Best Whey Protein,
Honestly, I’ve tried many different brands and flavors of whey protein in my time, and this is by far the best I’ve had. Amazing taste, mixes well, and is easy on the stomach. I would definitely recommend this to someone looking for a solid protein supplement.
