Diet, Nutrition and SupplementationPost here for supplement reviews or nutritional advice. If you're trying to get "ripped abz" THIS is where you should be.
This may seem odd, but I think the problem I had with Whey/water was the texture more than anything else - seemed like it was really "thin". So what I've been doing is reducing the amount of water and it thickens it up to the consistency of milk. Give it a try. I've got the ON Cookies & Cream and it's not too bad - pretty sweet tasting, but no too bad. I liked the Mint Chocolate as well.
With the strawberry you could always add some actual strawberries in a blender too.

I buy the unflavored/easily mixable formula (like what you can mix into recipes) and put a scoop in a glass of water, sprinkle some crystal light powder in, mix it up and add ice cubes. I got the idea from Nectar Protien, which tasted great. This way you can have whatever "flavor" you like, such as lemonade, iced tea, etc... I bring it in a water bottle with me everywhere I go. No longer a prob with getting protien on the go!

I do the same. Some other flavors combo that work for me:
- Cocoa powder and instant coffee (aka mocha)
- Vanilla extract and cinnamon
Lifetime's Whey Protein Isolate tastes pretty good in just water. I used to use Designer Whey's chocolate, which won an award for best taste, but it blows compared to Lifetime's. FWIW.
The only protein I've found that tastes good in water in Biotest Low Carb Grow. I'm sue a lot of people on this site use it. The strawberry tastes awesome. Not the cheapest stuff on the market but definitely the best.

thanks for all the input. I am looking for 100% Whey Protein mixtures that are good in water. CB has me doing a scoop before and after workouts instead of adding gatorade (which I usually do) to shed thoes last lbs.
