What do you guys take, and which ones taste the best?
I`m looking for a change from Optimum Whey Double Choc.

Since I'm a cheap bugger I usually take some no-name stuff. I tried Whey products but since I didn't realize any benefit as opposed to "normal" protein products I stick to these.
The Multipower whey drinks they serve at my gym taste great though-wouldn't afford it all the time but definetly better than my vanilla flavoured stuff (tastes more like old newspaper drenched in milk).
This is a european firm, if you live in the US you probably won't get it. Friends of mine are into Weider but it's too expensive for me. Maybe that helps :).

www.allthewhey.com has some decent and inexpensive protein. I hear the banana flavor is excellent.

Thanks for the recommendations so far....anyone have any more? Nothing like a bit of variety to kill the bordom.

I actually still have a stock of whey concentrate by BSL but they no longer sell protein. Once I run out I'll probably be going to All the whey because it looks to be the best for the money and I hear the flavors are decent.

Sorry, but can I ask who BSL is?

Black Star Labs. They use to be a distributor and they made their own protein.

If you want something that tastes good I'd recommend EAS protein shakes.

for mrp's....
I like their Orange Tange one with half a scoop of Optimum 100% Whey Chocolate....gives it a nice Jaffa flavour.
It has been awhile since I bought them though....aren't they mainly whey rather than a true MRP??
Myoplex never did much for me.
Lebrada's range was good...particularly their Peanut Butter one. A slight chalky taste to it, but better than most
I cant STAND that MRP called AMP60 or something similar...shit, I forgot the companies name...very famous though. It makes me dry-reach every time I try to drink it.

I use Gold's Gym Whey protein (chocolate).
Great taste and has worked really well for me.
Downside is that it's expensive ($120us 2kg).
I chose this because most of the chocolate flavored one's here taste like cocoa.

Met-Rx sucks too, it tastes like liquid cardboard and costs like 100 dollars for a can.

Whey3 by Fast Nutrition. I think they only have it here in Finland and maybe Sweden. It`s not expensive., and they have it at my local supermarket.

I use Ultimate Nutition Prostar Whey protein and they are pretty good and not expensive.
But then again I don`t have anything to compare it with because they are my first!

Whey 80 chocklate... shake with a "light" milk and it tastes like a McD shake.
112SEK/kg thats like 14$/kg
www.gymgrossisten.se
16Kg minimum to get that prize if you get more you can get them to throw in some shakers and such stuff for free aswell.
Something for you swedes atleast.

I agree with Baggen, Whey 80 is really good and tastes nice if you want a fast protein. They also have a good slow protein called Milk 90.
