If any of you still have the Discover $10 off $75 purchase, you can use it on this as well. I did and got the price down to $84 for 2.

How's the taste compare to dymatize? Haven't tried this optimum nutrition brand, want to but don't want to commit to such large quantity if I don't like it.
My adult kids and I have been using ON for at least 5 years. Overall I have liked all the chocolate flavors. I did not like the chocolate PB at all (and I love PB). We have a bag of vanilla ice cream we've been struggling through for 2 years (yikes). Its not that its bad but its sickeningly over sweet.

We usually opt for the double rich chocolate but the extreme milk is good too.

BTW, PBFit pb powder is an excellent addition. 8g protein in 2 scoops and only 60 cal.

This flavor is my least favorite among ON; as above, over-sweet and clumpy texture. French Vanilla is better. This is good with mix-ins in the Ninja Creami though.

How do you define "not compromising on nutritional value"?
Many wouldn't consider the ingredients nutritional: Sucralose, Cellulose gum, and especially Ace-K...

Let the thumbs downs commence!
I'm not sure of BlueShop747's context, but from my perspective, many brands add fillers, often in terms of carbohydrates that add calories.

While you see this ON is a 31g scoop for 120 calories & 24g protein, you will often see other brands in the 180-240 calorie range for a larger scoop size, and an equivalent or even less amount of protein.

Have not seen a deal on protein in a while. This is decent but I'll wait for dymatize to get to 40-50$ range

I usually get some form of chocolate. Is this flavor any good?
I got the vanilla ice cream flavor last time it was on sale and I really didn't like it. It was overly sweat to me and the flavor seemed very processed. I ended up cutting it with some chocolate protein powder to make it palatable.

A huge waste of money if you're a sedentary fat lard.

A huge benefit and a critical component if you are lifting and looking to supplement with the highest quality whey protein on the market.

No comparison to Dymatize. Not nearly as good as far as flavor is concerned. This used to be the GOAT at one time though. And even still it's an amazing deal. And don't me wrong, it doesn't taste bad by any stretch. There's just so many options out there that taste so much better now

All supplements and protein powder are a waste. The makers are just looking to make money from you. I would never buy any of that. Also there's zero health benefits.
Jesus Christ. Please do not take advice from this man. If you're interested in the science of protein powder supplementation, here it is:

TLDR: Protein powder supplementation is a tried and true method to help enhance muscle protein synthesis, particularly when used in conjunction with a regular workout routine.
