  • ON protein and MRPs

    So I have found that I can only really stomach Optimum Nutritions chocolate flavor protein. I also have their fruit punch and I have to choke it down. First, how does the cookies and cream compare?

    Second, what do you guys think about these MRP's. I know they arent great for cutting season but sometimes I get stuck at work and need something. comments?

    This will sound pretty redundant but make your own MRP's...

      Have you tried the chocolate mint....it's not as rich as the plain choc and tastes great imo. The cookies and cream is good, but I got tired of it pretty quick.

        I don't remember what flavor it was but something I bought from ON was the most disgusting thing I've ever had - had to trash it. I *think* it was vanilla....

                    I make my own when I can, especially when I'm bulking but I was looking for something where I can have a packet in my truck and a few at work just in case. I work full time and I'm in law school, and now I'm single so I dont have much time for cooking anything extra. I'm stressing getting my chicken and rice cooked.

                    Does the ON mint taste anything like AllTheWhey's choc. mint? I couldnt make myself drink it. I think it was something with the fake sugar. Made my body think I was drinking the crap you get for a CT scan.

                    I think I'll get chocolate and cookies and cream as soon as I can afford it.

                        why did you post the nutrional label. you also listed a combined 2 servings 2scoops.

                        ON is overfuckingrated THESE flavors suck rocky road has a medicine taste to it, choc. mint is horrible and i like mint flavoring, strawberry too sweet, cookies n cream is a nightmere tastes like fuking splenda.

                        so choc. or vanilla (which is mediocre)

                        actually i think alltheywhey.com is better i only had there mint and chocolate.

                            I just use the regular chocolate. Not the best but not bad either.

                              I think you're just that guy on board that has to say everything sucks, lol.

                              ON's choc mint is great. I've been drinking it for 3yrs now and I can still stomach it...that says a lot to me. It tastes like smooth lightly mint flavored chocolate milk to me.
