Deciding to switch over protien brands because of an amazing deal i can get on this stuff, so i need some general opinions.

This stuff >>> http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/opt/whey.html


1) What flavour do you like?

2) What are your overall impressions of the quality/ effects?

Thanks everyone

Personally, i love the taste of this stuff, especially the cookies and cream.

Im not too sure how much of an effect it played on me, but i seemed to progress onto heavier weights really quick. It mightve been the protein, but it could have also been a coincidence as i used it when i first started weight lifting...
With all the stuff that ive tried recently, my progress has slowed down a lot though, probably because ive hit my plateau (or a small hill weight wise lol)

I prefer the Banana Cream (but it's the only one I've tried). Also my favorite brand. :thumbsup:

I hated cookies and cream, it did smell good though. I like double rich chocolate the best, it kind of tastes like a kit-kat milkshake.

Optimum gets good rating at BB.com. I like it, some of the flavors are good. With the exchange rate, tax etc it might be better to order from http://www.supplementscanada.com/popeyes/optimum.html

You usually get the shipment within 2-3 days. No shipping charge above $100 and no duties or other charges.

I thought the cookies and cream flavour was damn good. It's kinda hard to screw up vanilla, so it's pretty good. It's my "standard flavour" I use when mixing fruits into it. Root beer was a bit of a let down but not unbearable. I have some orange creme waiting to be mixed too that I haven't tried yet.

I also have the variety pack so I can try out all their flavours and decide which ones I like for next time.
