Review on πŸ‹οΈ Optimum Nutrition Platinum Hydrowhey Protein Powder, 100% Hydrolyzed Whey Protein Isolate, Turbo Chocolate Flavor, 3.61 lbs by Keith Norred

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best

General: Exceptionally high quality protein. The price is absolutely justified. Know that most other protein powders are second to none. Basically they are qualitatively lower. A full scoop mixes very well with 6-8 oz of water in my shaker. Also mixes well with milk, not as well as water but still good. Try grinding it in a blender for smoother results! Flavors (I tried): Turbo Chocolate (TC) - great in every way. It just tastes great. To me, it's not something that tastes so good that I couldn't wait to drink it, but it doesn't taste bad by any means. For me it's like water, I need it, I drink it and that's it. Brilliant. I give it an 8.5/10 for taste. Plus, it mixes so well that at times the consistency of the cocktail was almost indistinguishable from water. It's also very versatile! If you're planning on adding multiple ingredients to a smoothie, TC will likely go well together. If you are trying this product for the first time, please buy it. Cookies and Cream Overdrive (CCO) - Ugh. No, just no. I do not understand. The quality of the protein is clearly the same, but only .no. This is especially bad first thing in the morning. I put 4.5/10. After a taste of TC, I decided to be a little more adventurous. Got this one hoping it would be like a muscle milk cookie and cream flavor and boy did it. Optimum Nutrition has lowered CCO. Not only is it tasteless, but it doesn't mix as well as TC. A couple of times I've had unmixed but wet powder lining the bottom rims of my shaker bottle. I had to scrape it out with a spoon. Exploded Waste. After my first serving I was afraid I would have to wait at least a month to finish it all and go back to something better. I got used to the taste over time, but please don't let it bother you. Guess I can just stick with Turbo Chocolate!
