Tastes great and easy to use

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We use whey protein in our house as part of our strength training regime as well as for our teen who is a vegetarian and doesn't get enough protein in her diet. Usually our go to flavor is vanilla, but I was excited to try this flavor as I thought it would be enjoyable by itself as well as by adding fresh fruit to it. Wow! This whey powder when mixed with water or milk tastes just like rich and creamy vanilla ice cream. My daughter loves to add strawberries or bananas to her drinks for a special treat. Now we don't have to fight with her to drink her protein shakes. And when my husband and I make ours before hitting the gym, it feels like we are treating ourselves. There is no powdery after taste or heaviness like we have experienced with other powders. It dissolves quickly in liquid. Highly recommend.

The 100% whey protein fills me up and sustains me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Protein Powder is perfection! I add a scoop to my morning smoothie and it tastes so creamy. The vanilla ice cream flavor makes me feel like I am enjoying a decadent shake. The 100% whey protein fills me up and sustains me for hours. I highly recommend!

Tastes great and really helps my diet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m always looking for ways to add great tasting protein to my diet and this whey protein powder rocks! It has a great vanilla ice cream taste and I find that it has very little aftertaste which is something I don’t like about other whey protein products. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to add a great tasting protein powder to their diet!

Great protein!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve found my new favorite. I usually buy a different brand, but I’ve never liked the artificial sweetener taste it has. There’s no chalky powder or undissolved crumbs, and it doesn’t leave that annoying artificial aftertaste.

A solid protein powder that taste good!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a standard vanilla protein shake, but it does taste pretty good! I’ve been taking some after the gym and and I felt like it sufficiently meets my needs. I would recommend to anyone wanting some extra protein in their diet.

Gymmer bestie

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Creamy, valuable, clean ingredients and smell so good, like a vanilla ice cream. I like it because it’s not so so sweet like other protein powder, bring you a smooth feeling when drink. Nice to try and good to have

High quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This protein tastes really good. It's not too sweet, containing only 2 grams of sugar, which is perfect for my calorie deficit. It satisfies my hunger, making it perfect for snacks between meals. As for the price, I think it's a bit expensive for only 10 servings, but if you can afford it and are looking for a high-quality protein, this would be a great option.

High Quality ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein Vanilla for free from Influenster and I really love it. The vanilla flavor is smooth and not too sweet, it mixes easily without clumps, and it’s gentle on my stomach. Each serving gives 24g of protein, which is great for muscle recovery and meeting daily protein goals. I would definitely recommend this protein to anyone who works out regularly or wants a reliable, high-quality supplement.

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great flavoring! I power lift every day. I used this after my workout today and it was great. Blended well and tasted even better. Didn’t feel bloated after either. Will be adding into my mix for sure!

Vanilla🍹

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been testing this vanilla ice cream flavored whey isolate and feel pretty mixed about it. The flavor is fine and smoother in milk or smoothies, but with water it tastes a bit thin and slightly artificial to me. It mixes fairly well, though I still notice some foam and occasional clumps if I rush. It feels lighter than regular whey, which I like, but it’s also less creamy than other vanilla proteins I’ve tried. It works and feels clean, just not something I really look forward to drinking.
