good flavor and texture, very high protein with little else
By Music Fan Jeff
This and MetRX's protein powders are my favorites, though when Amazon has this brand in stock it's less expensive per serving than MetRX. The MetRX foams up a bit more and seems a little thicker (not negatives, in my opinion); the TwinLab comes out very smooth when made in a blender. Both brands taste very good, at least when made with fat free or 1% milk (or at the very least half milk and half water).

I won't detail the nutritional info because it's available in the product description here, but like MetRX I like that this protein powder gets almost all of its calories from protein. Some protein powders have a fair amount of fat and some have A LOT of carbohydrates. Those formulas may be good for competition level bodybuilders who need to have an extremely high caloric intake because they are working out so hard, but I don't really want a protein shake that gives me a meal's worth of carbs and fat in addition to the protein. I'd rather get my carbs and fat from real food.

GREAT PRODUCT & SELLER!
By M. A. Spencer
I'm just a normal person. Not a jock or body builder. Not even extremely active because of physical disabilities. However I swear by this product. I drink it for breakfast and mid-afternoon snack just about every day. The taste is wonderful with skim milk or water - your choice. I even take it with me when I travel overseas to minister. It's a great meal replacement filled with good protein; great-tasting; quick to fix; and keeps me feeling satisfied. And at this price it cannot be beat. My son went through a lifestyle change about 7 months ago. Changed his eating habits and exercise schedule. Has dropped 95 lbs. Part of his success was this protein powder. He drinks it twice a day and eats sensible small portion meals. The weight loss did great things for his health and self-image. He feels so good about himself - he can conquer the world! We are repeat customers and will continue to purchase this particular item from this seller as long as it's available.

Great tasting protein power with one issue.
By N. Spears
This is a great tasting protein, and believe me I have tasted so many brands it not funny. The only issue I noticed with this protein as compare to a tub of Optimum Nutrition is that the serving size is HUGE! The Optimum nutrition scoop is half the size of the Twin Lab scoop. I compared the nutrient facts and Twin lab has 3 more grams of carb and an extra gram of fat. Nevertheless, the scoope is twice the size. Optimum Nutrition is definitely higher quality, but Twin Lab tastes better.
