do not waste your money on that. most protein powders on the market contain some artificial sweeteners. if you dont want that, id recommend the NOW whey isolate unflavored. its a great product, can be found for about $8 a pound and has no artificial flavors. i buy the 10lb bag. the taste is pretty much a bland milky taste.

the other brand that is popular and has good prices is musclefeast. they have various protein choices and i believe each has an unflavored version.

Cool. I'll check out NOW. I can tolerate almost any taste as long as it isn't sour. I just wanted to try something different than Optimum Nutrition. Thanks.

i was nervous when i got the now unflavored but i actually like the taste of it. i usually mix a little flavored sugar powder in it but its not necessary.

i just got my first musclefeast powder so i havent tried the product yet. i got the premium protein blend flavored in chocolate. i prefer the unflavored mainly because the unflavored has more actual protein per serving but i was worried about the casein and hydrolized protein as they are less pleasant than plain whey isolate so i decided to get it flavored.

My current one is musashi 92 blend.

What you got and maybe brief feedback on it if you want.
I like Bluebonnet. It's local (to me) and passes all of my sticking-points. They add a little vanilla extract to the unflavored (which is what I use), I wish they would just leave it "raw" but otherwise good product.
