Flavor Name: Banana Cream Size: 2 Pound (Pack of 1)
I’ve been using Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey for a while now, and it’s by far one of the best protein supplements on the market. The taste is smooth and not overpowering, it mixes easily with water or milk, and it doesn’t leave any clumps. I noticed a real difference in muscle recovery and energy after workouts. The packaging is sturdy, and the scoop is always easy to find. It’s clear this brand focuses on quality and consistency. As someone who reviews products seriously and is interested in working with trusted suppliers, I highly recommend this product and brand. Five stars without hesitation! ... show more

  • Enjoyed it!😍
Flavor Name: Vanilla Ice Cream Size: 5 Pound (Pack of 1)
*5/5 Stars* I'm absolutely thrilled with the Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein Powder in Vanilla Ice Cream flavor! As someone who's been using protein powder for muscle support and recovery, I can confidently say that this product has exceeded my expectations. The packaging is sleek and professional, with clear labeling that makes it easy to understand the product's benefits. The 5-pound container provides an impressive 73 servings, making it a great value for the price. But what really sets this product apart is its effectiveness. With 24 grams of protein and 5.5 grams of BCAAs per serving, I've noticed a significant improvement in my muscle recovery and growth. The vanilla ice cream flavor is also delicious and mixes well with water or milk. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with this product and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a high-quality whey protein powder. It's definitely worth trying out -Carb content -Texture -Cleanliness ... show more

  • What Flavor to Buy
Flavor Name: Double Rich Chocolate Size: 5 Pound (Pack of 1)
First off, I've purchased a bunch of different flavors of ON Gold Standard Whey. All of them have close to the same nutritional value, but they vary greatly in taste. Both my wife and I drink these protein shakes as part of our daily diet, and as a product, Optimum Nutrition is great. I've mixed with both milk and water, and all of the shakes mix well and don't seem to clump. I've tried other manufactures whey, and I keep finding myself going back to ON for the price, nutritional value, and above all the taste. So the flavor question. As I mentioned, each flavor has a different characteristic from the others. Some are bland, some taste sweet, some taste overly fake. We loved some, and we hated some. Below is a list based on what we like so far and why. Bear in mind that I hate diet drinks for their bad aftertaste. The drinks don't have to be sweet for me to like them, but I can't stand the garbage aftertaste of fake sweeteners. The best flavors: Rocky Road - By far the single best tasting flavor. The downside is that it does taste a little sweet. The nutritional value is right on with the other flavors, but it is a bit sweet. I could drink this all day. If you only buy one flavor, this is it. There is no real aftertaste, and the flavor is great. Extreme Milk Chocolate - Another good flavor with almost no aftertaste. This one tastes like chocolate, and doesn't have a fake taste to it. If you are looking at the chocolate flavors, this one is perfect. Natural Vanilla - This is a slightly different product, and it comes in a tub with yellow labeling instead of the red. It's on Amazon for the same price, and it has the same nutritional values. They claim it has less artificial sweeteners in it, hence the natural label. In any case, this is the best vanilla out there. There is no aftertaste, and it tastes like vanilla milk. It is not as sweet as the others, but it the single best vanilla flavor I've found. The middle of the road flavors: Cookies and Cream - This one is both good and bad. If you like the creamy vanilla taste, you will like the flavor. It doesn't have a bad aftertaste, but it is sort bland. It is sweet, but bland. Also, the cookie chunks in it don't dissolve. This is the only flavor so far that has bits of stuff that you are swallowing when you drink it. It's odd. That said, I have reordered it in the past. Chocolate Malt - It's just OK. The flavor is a little odd because of the malt. Given the choice, just order the Extreme Milk Chocolate. Caramel Toffee Fudge - Again, just OK. They tried too hit to many flavors with this one, and it just turned out odd. Not a bad flavor, but don't start out here. I got bored so I tried it. I doubt I'll order it again. And the bad: Double Rich Chocolate - This flavor sucks. It tastes like fake chocolate. Not good fake chocolate, but generic fake chocolate. It has that bad aftertaste of fake sweetener, and is all around not good. Vanilla Ice Cream - Another swing and a miss. This flavor tastes like bad fake powdered milk. It has that bad aftertaste, and is probably the single worst flavor they have. If you are looking for vanilla, avoid this at all costs and get the Natural Vanilla. Tropical Punch - Another fake tasting flavor. When I got this, I could barely get through the first few shakes. Eventually it grew on me a little bit, and I was able to drink it without hating it. It tastes like strawberry milk with a bunch of fake sweetener. It's just wrong, and is not something you want to drink after a workout. I know that taste varies from person to person, so take this with a grain of salt. I hate the taste of fake sweetener, so this list draws from that. I've taken to buying the 2lb tubs to try out a flavor, and then going with the 5lb tubs if I like it. It costs a bit more that way, but it means there is only 2lbs to choke down if you get a flavor that you hate. Enjoy! ... show more

  • Consistently Reliable Whey Protein with Great Taste and Excellent Mixability
Flavor Name: Extreme Milk Chocolate Size: 5 Pound (Pack of 1)
I have been using Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein Powder in Extreme Milk Chocolate flavor for over three years. This product consistently delivers high-quality protein that supports my post-workout recovery and daily nutrition needs. I blend two scoops with milk and add ON creatine, and it mixes completely within 30 seconds, leaving no clumps or residue. The taste is rich and enjoyable—not overly sweet or artificial—making it easy to consume daily without flavor fatigue. Over the years, I’ve tried numerous protein powders, but this one remains my favorite due to its superior flavor, smooth texture, and effective protein content. The packaging is secure and well-sealed, ensuring freshness throughout usage. The 5-pound container offers excellent value, especially compared to smaller sizes available locally. For anyone looking for a dependable, great-tasting protein powder that supports muscle recovery and meal replacement, I highly recommend this product. Its consistent quality and value make it a standout choice. ... show more

  • Good stuff, but….
Flavor Name: Vanilla Ice Cream Size: 1 Pound (Pack of 1)
I started buying this product, after trying a few others, for my bedridden dad. His healthcare team said he could use some extra protein in his diet, and he won’t eat a lot of food, so I thought a whey protein would be perfect for him, and it is! I put a scoop in his coffee every morning and he LOVES it. It’s basically creamer and there are quite a few flavors. After trying multiple flavors, we have found Vanilla Ice Cream to be the best for our needs. It also breaks down easier in coffee. I tried to make a drink with cold water and it was really clumpy and not palatable. The price is good for the amount. A 24 servings lasts us a month. He has started healing faster, has more energy, and even though he is bedridden, his overall health has improved considerably after using this for a few months. If you were going to use this to build muscle, I think it would work, but you’d need to use a blender, and mix it with some warm water and maybe some ice after it’s broken down so it would be smooth by the time you got to the gym. That’s the only reason I give I 4 stars instead of 5. ... show more
