Very good! Well worth getting. Tastes like melted ice cream.

Best protein powder, chocolate is better.

This is the best protein powder. I prefer the chocolate flavor.

I've been waiting for the Vanilla Flavor to come back in stock. Effective, mixes easily and great value.

You cant go wrong with O.N protein. Dissolves easily. Simple ingredients compared to others. Priced good $/serving. Ships fast.

I’m not sure how to even open this package

I literally spent 10 minutes trying to open this package. Knife, razor blade…finally scissors. What are we doing here?! It shouldn’t be this challenging. I literally lost my appetite and don’t even want this shake anymore…luckily I’m about done with my vital protein container so I can fill it with this.

Good Protein Powder, hate the plastic tubs

I love this protein powder, have used the Vanilla Ice Cream, Chocolate PB and Double Rich Chocolate, but hate the plastic tubs which end up in landfills and contribute to micro plastics in the environment. I love the option of foil pouches but unfortunately you seem to be phasing them out. Do the responsible thing with packaging and I will be a customer for life.

Good taste

I bought vanilla ice cream product but i noticed black specks after shake at the bottom of the glass. Is it from the vanilla, is it normal stuff or not . Thanks!

BAD texture from thickeners! Other flavors better!

Whyyyyy did y'all add Xanthan and Cellulose gums to this flavor?!?! The thickeners give it a slimy, soapy texture when mixed. Tried with milk and water and it's terrible. Stuck with 2 lbs of this and I could barely get through 1 shake.
