NutricostWhey Protein Concentrate (Vanilla) 2LBS

Taste exaclty like chocolate-peanut-butter, specially if mixed with milk. My boys loved it, for me was too sweet so I usually mix with more water/milk than recommended. I also like to mix it with unflavored yogurt, then I use half a scoop and it is a great healthy treat when I get a sweet tooth. It blends easily and does not leave an after taste. Great value for the size and the amount of protein.

I got the vanilla 5LB tub, and I personally use it with a blender bottle and about 10oz of cold whole milk after every workout. It mixes really well — the texture is smooth, no weird clumping, and it does come with a scoop, so measuring is easy and clean.I am a 6-foot-2 male at 210 pounds and use just one scoop with my 10oz of milk daily.Tip for beginners:If you're new to powdered protein or just getting into working out, make sure you start increasing your overall nutrition, not just your protein. You especially need to up your fiber intake. If you don't, you'll probably deal with bloating, irregular bowel movements, and just feeling uncomfortable for a while. Also, don't rely on this as your only protein source — chicken is a great place to start adding real food protein to your meals.Overall, this is a great-tasting vanilla protein that mixes easily and doesn’t break the bank. Definitely recommend for this price point.

Good protein, tastes good and mixes well even in a shaker cup but in a blender is best. Compared to other brands it is a more bland taste but I find the flavor to be good.

I add this protein powder to my yogurt, coffee, soup etc. Any time I need a boost in my protein for the day.I had gastric bypass back in 2012 and used a similar product then. Personally I prefer the unflavored because you can add it to so many things and it doesn't flavor them. For me , I find the option to add it to many more items, being unflavored exceptional.My doctor recently told me I wasn't getting enough protein in my diet. This is the easiest way for me to insure I'm getting my recommended daily protein.The price is right also. Considering so many of the protein powders are so expensive.The only drawback if you consider it a drawback is that it will slightly discolor a clear item. Like broth for instance. For myself, not an issue.

I’ve tried a lot of protein powders over the years, and Nutricost Whey Protein Concentrate really impressed me, especially at this price point. The chocolate flavor is rich but not overly sweet, and it blends smoothly with water, milk, or smoothies without clumping.🥤 What I loved:Great flavor without being overpowering: It has a clean chocolate taste without that artificial aftertaste that many budget proteins have.Mixes well: Whether I shake it in a bottle or throw it in a blender, the texture is smooth and drinkable no gritty bits or weird foam on top.Simple, transparent ingredients: No fillers, no proprietary blends. I appreciate knowing exactly what I’m putting into my body.5lb size is perfect for consistency: I drink a shake post-workout almost daily, and this will last me a good while without needing to reorder too soon.💪 Performance & Digestion: This protein feels light on my stomach and hasn’t caused any bloating or discomfort. I’ve noticed good recovery and energy levels since I started using it, especially after lifting sessions.💡 Pro tip: Blend it with a frozen banana and almond milk for a treat that tastes like a chocolate milkshake.

The product arrived with a safety seal and a freshness seal which is nice to see. The freshness seal was a job in itself to remove. It required my teeth, the handle side of a spoon, strategic peeling and patience. Once open (workout completed...lol) there was a very mild scent somewhat like malt or raw oats but, I'm not really sure because it was unique. The scoop was visible and not buried thankfully. I tasted the powder off of my finger and it had once again a very mild taste somewhat like malt or raw oats. I have not taken protein supplements since my days of body building which have long since passed. Back then I was taking EAS Myoplex and it was then, and is now, extremely expensive. Considering I weighted 268lb when I started lifting again and dropped 38lb over several months, the cost for protein would of been too much for my budget supplement or food wise. The problem was that I was extremely sore and it was taking an extreme amount of time to heal between workouts, so I decided to go back to protein supplements. Daily I make a vegetable and berry smoothie that I put all of my powders and supplements in. So, after putting THIS protein concentrate into that same smoothie, it did change the taste. It made it again taste kind of like a mild malt flavoring which did permeate throughout the mixture and was stronger than expected. It wasn't a bad flavor mind you, but it was definitely not flavorless. I think this taste is typical for whey protein because I did recognize it. I went with the concentrate rather than the isolate because of price and taste. Yes, you get a few less grams of protein per scoop but, I didn't want a chemical taste from the over processing of the isolate. I will try the isolate from this same manufacturer next and compare them. The most important point is that this is an affordable, 3rd party tested, contaminate limit product and is comparable to most of the products produced by this company. No it is not tasteless but, it does not have a bad taste. Considering the amount of eggs (which are comparable pricewise right now) I would have to eat daily this seemed a much more viable option.

Tastes fine. Decent for the price. Doesn't mix as well as other protein powders.
