Im getting low on my current whey protein tubs. Right now I have GNC chocolate and vanilla flavors. They generally last me almost a year so when I get a new one I like to make sure its something that will taste good because I'll have it for a while.
Im thinking about getting a banana-strawberry flavor. I like to make smothies with frozen fruit sometimes, so chocolate is a bad flavor for that.
Anyone got any recommendations on good tasting brands?
It doesnt have to be anything particularly fancy or expensive.

The guy looks like an asshole, but the stuff is really good and it mixes up well.
I get it in bulk at the health food store.

I use cyto gain after workouts and fast twitch before. What do you think about this stuff? I have used it for three months and I think I'm stronger but my workout has gotten more intense as well. I like to cycle off the stuff every four weeks.

in my experience, very few taste good
i would suggest you choose a brand that tastes "ok" - and be a man and get used to it!!
your tastebuds will naturally adjust - that i can guarantee.

Depends on the type of protein you want.. If you want high protein, low carb stuff, go for Optimum 100% whey, or Oryx Goat Whey.
You want to put on weight? Take BSN True Mass or Cyto Gainer..
You want stuff that tastes good? Go eat a fucking ice cream shake.

thats it right there, no need to get tricky. Shit even walmart has good whey, body fortress or six star are pretty good. Cytosport makes some good stuff to. Just dont go to GNC and spend 70 dollars on muscletech....

As many already said Cytosport is good, that muscle milk won best tasting protein drink a couple years in a row. Another good tasting drinks are Mega Mrp and Metrix, I think there right up there muscle milk IMO.

Protein powders ive tried:
Optimum Nutrition: Excellent taste and good price
Labrada: Best tasting vanilla ive ever had. 40g protein low carb, but expensive
Dymatize mega gainer: Good value tastes good
Cell Biology: Not bad taste excellent value
Musashi: absolute crap taste and price
Not sure what im going to buy next, want something with glutamine, creatine and good amino acid profile. But has to be high protein, low carbs, low fats. Labrada is what im leaning towards although it is expensive.
Any other suggestions??
Err. Generally, its not very possible to actually absorb any more than 20-30 grams of protein per serving, even if you are taking HMB. Funny isn't it?
You should focus less on what has the best numbers, focus more on what protein has the best bio availability. This is why I say Optimum and Oryx are the best two.. Oryx has a weak amino profile, but its more absorbable than any other protein out there.
If your like me, you arent as fortunate as some, who can down Muscle Milk and not have to worry about being gassy for the next hour. I've taken both Optimum and Oryx.. I like Oryx a lot.. But if I could pick a protein, it would be Muscle Milk.
You want something with Creatine and Glutamine, get some Cell Mass.
