Optimum NutritionGold Standard 100% Whey Protein Powder, Vanilla Ice Cream, 2 Pound

So I ordered this product on December 30, 2016 and it arrived on January 4, 2017, just as they say. Now about the Optimun Gold Vanilla Ice Cream flavor, it is DELICIOUS!!. It is creamy and not too sweet. I prepared it with frozen banana and peanut butter. I just could not believe how good it tasted. Again it was not too sweet, it was creamy and most importantly it did not have an after taste. I received it on the January 4,and I prepared it as soon as I left the gym. No regrets so yummy, looking forward for my other recipes. I have tried ISO-100 chocolate and vanilla flavor, and I have tried Ideallean chocolate flavor, I am not knocking their flavors, because they too taste good. However ON Vanilla Ice Cream flavor surpass them. I recommend this flavor. Now hopefully it does what it says it good for. I work out 4-5 times a week, however I was doing mostly cardio. I am doing more weight training now that i have gotten to the weight I wanted..

I'm shocked that I like this because I'm a chocoholic and love sweet stuff. This is actually really good...I do add Splenda. But it's nice to be able to add fruit, or cinnamon, etc. It's nice and thick vs. some flavors are a bit "thin".

The Vanilla Ice cream flavor tastes amazing and blends well with most liquids, including most milk variants. One serving is a perfect amount and not too much for a shaker to handle.

The bought Extreme chocolate milk at the same time I bought Vanilla Ice cream. The chocolate is great in the recommended 8 ounces of water and amazing if you add 4 ounces of milk to 8 or 12 ounces of water. The vanilla ice cream is too sweet, you should dilute it to 12 ounces minimum or up to 16 ounces of water. I added creatine and it thickened up a bit and was a vanilla shake. I will either reduce the amount I use for lighter days or dilute the one cup to 16 ounces. Still as flavors go it is pretty amazing tasting.

After all the research and trials I've done on proteins and pre-workouts, this seems to be all I need. It gives me energy before I start, and does the job of repairing muscles and getting bigger. Blends fairly well in cold water and glass, tastes amazing, and a great value for just protein!

A fantastic product for people looking to build muscle. There is a sense of pride when finishing one of these things off. There is a distinct difference of how you *feel* post workout/the next day if you consume the recommended scoop during/after workout, and not having any of the protein powder. For best effect, I would recommend a half-scoop in 16-20oz water bottle (that you take with you to the gym), finish that off during workout, and have a full scoop when you get home in the form of a shake, mixing with yogurt, water, milk, etc. After about ~4 weeks of regular workout, 4 days a week, you will have noticeable fruits from your labor.Must have!!

I use this in making smoothies. The taste is delicious and it blends with no lumps. This vanilla ice cream flavor is better than the kind labeled vanilla, in my opinion.

It’s so good I mix it and use it for coffee creamer. I purchased this just because my gym recommended it and now I’m going to use it for life. Other guys are so sweet I can’t even stand it. if you mix this with unsweetened vanilla almond milk and shake it it taste just like a shake should
