Delicious protein shake!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the taste of this whey protein. It’s not too strong and not too sweet. I also tried it in my strawberrry, blueberry shake, and it was amazing! For the first taste test, I simply stirred it with a spoon and it dissolved after a bit. In a blender, obviously it dissolves easily. I would recommend drinking it with your favorite type of milk. It’s only 120 calories and a nice 31g of protein per serving, so it’s definitely worth it if you’re working out or just need to make up your protein for the day.

Gets the job done and more!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein in Vanilla Ice Cream flavor and I have to say that it’s been really good for me so far! It keeps me feeling full and energized. Makes me feel like I can take on any exercise at the gym or to just go about my day. It has a great vanilla flavor and it really tastes like ice cream! Love the way it tastes a lot. Would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to get in their protein intake while drinking something that is high quality and tastes amazing!

Protein Powder

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This protein powder was better than I thought it would be! It does take like a nice vanilla ice cream milkshake. I like making smoothies and cold drinks but you can mix it into any liquid you desire. I would definitely try it!

Good tasting protein

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The taste of this Optimum Nutrition Vanilla Ice Cream 100% Whey Protein is actually pretty good. I usually do chocolate flavored so this was a nice change up. It dissolves well and is easy on my stomach. I like that is not full of sugar. I need all the help I can get recovering from strength training and this size fits easily in my gym bag for on the go access.

The protien of protien

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been using this brand for years. Honestly it's the lasted trusted one for me. Never seen this flavor but I will say it's amazing. Makes one heck of a protien packed root beer float! Breaks down so easily and settles nicely. No bloating, upset stomach or uncomfortable digestion. Very gentle creamy texture, not very thick or clumpy like other brands. Not exaggerating, i went through this so fast, I wish I had more.... Haven't seen this flavor in stores or vitamin shops yet. At least not where I live.

Tastes sweet and creamy without feeling chalky.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I normally dislike most protein shakes but this flavor is actually good. With cold water (best if it’s room temp), it actually melts and the texture is creamy with little to no bubbles. Hot water makes the texture bumpy and very thick, so bad. But overall, it’s a great product 🥤✨

Optimum Nutrition Protein Powders lasts me through

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As soon as I opened the Optimum Nutrition Whey Protein Powder, the aroma of the Vanilla Ice Cream flavor was amazing. It looks amazing and there was a lot in the container too. I love the texture of this protein powder and it lasts me all throughout my workout day.

A Pleasant Surprise

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got to try the ON Vanilla Ice Cream whey. Gotta say, I love blending mine with fruit, but this stuff even mixes up super easy in just a glass with a spoon—no clumps at all. The flavor is a really clean vanilla, not too sweet or artificial, which I loved. The best part was the texture; it got crazy creamy, almost like a milkshake. The scoop is solid and keeps you full, and you can tell the quality is there (isolate is the first ingredient). For me, it was a total win. The smell when you open the tub is just like cracking open a real tub of ice cream. I was genuinely surprised!

Been a customer of ON Optimum Nutrition products for years. They have great products for a great price. Like most people when it comes to protein I favor vanilla products most cause they can be mixed with more variety items to make smoothies. You can really taste the artificial sweeteners in this one. It’s my only setback with this item so I give it 4 stars.

Loved this whey protein!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got to try this Optimun Nutrition protein powder and it was so good. The flavor was delicious and it was so creamy and it really tasted like vanilla ice cream. It incorporates well with both milk and water and it doesn't have an artificial flavor or gritty texture. I incorporated it after my daily workout and it really made me feel very satisified and I loved the idea that is gluten free with a high quality whey protein. I really recommen it!
