Just because Muscle Milk is a super well known and commercial brand, who actually targets their product more to the much more placebo driven/prone "need" consumer, does not by any stretch mean you are ACTUALLY getting 25g of higher quality protein in that serving. But hey, as somebody desperate to save sometimes that amount you "save" in the process of *BELIEVING* that you are getting more of something then you actually are is matters most in that over equation.
I certainly wouldn't bet my own invested time and potential gains on this crap lol. Heck, even if you are only of the easy marks with this stuff that prioritizes "taste" above all else when picking a protein power (most of the time without even understanding that flavoring is actually one of the easiest cost cutting measures as it involves decreasing the amount of actual protein you need to include to make weight), it's even apparently getting that all wrong lol.

With the wholesale costs any bigtime protein powder distributor is having to pay at an all time high, these days it's probably best to default to just buying Optimium Nutrition or Dymatize if you really want to have a reasonable level of confidence that you are actually getting the stated protein content you are paying for. Which kinda blows since neither are typically "sale" friendly.....but that ultimately just is what it is in an unregulated market that probably does more total misleading content sales as a whole then anything thing remotely 100% label accurate one.
Or you could just ignore me and believe whatever you feel sounds best for your pocket to believe. Regardless how much overall sense a price should make to you in the event you were to say...cut out the middle men, contact one of the few major wholesale protein suppliers out there like Glanbia or Agropur, and convince them enough that you are actually worth the time to quote you a comparative price on say a couple hundred thousand dollars every month of sourced protein from them (which spoiler...is going to ruin your day and year in the event you have even halfway decent logical deduction skills and have never questioned the too-good-to-be-true pricing people have been paying at places like Myprotein who "magically" seem to be able to mass undercut everybody else in that market space lol).
It's been a while though since I've ordered any, so maybe things are different now. I'm ordering soon and don't want to get scammed paying for filler and fake protein content claims

If anyone has any suggestions for reliable protein or any reason to think myprotein is not a brand worth buying please speak up, I could really use some knowledge before I cough up money for my next whey purchase
