| Out of all the protein powders I have tried over the twenty plus years of working out, Designer Whey Protein powders are the easiest to mix and the best tasting on the market today. I have seen great results using this powder for fat loss and muscle gains. |

| The products are great, but was surprised to see a scoop wasn't included with the last order after I'd thrown the other scoops out. |

| This is one of the best tasting protein drinks I have had. Not only that, it is very satisfying and curbs my hunger too. I use 2 scoops with 8 ounces of no fat milk and 4 ounces of water, throw in a couple ice cubes, and blend very briefly. It is the best!! That gives me about 50 grams of protein alone. I've also thrown in various fruit/peanut butter for a change of pace, but I love it alone! |

| Hey, I have tried the vanilla praline, chocolate, and the strawberry. All are pretty tasty but I prefer the strawberry, have seen great results with this product and would recommend it to anyone looking for a protein supplement. |

| If you're sick of low carb protein that tastes like chalky crap then this is the protein for you. This is by far the only protein shake I can drink without gagging. Vanilla Praline is my absolute favorite. Strawberry is good also. If you add milk to them they taste like a yummy treat but I prefer to mix with water because I would rather chew my carbs. |

| This is a very good protein mix! It mixes well and the taste can not be beat. I feel chocolate is the best flavor and it gives you the right amount of protein per scoop. I will no longer use any other brand of protein. Great product!!! |

| Been using Designer whey for a little over a year. Tried the vanilla first and it was OK. Got a little tough to take after a while but that was more out of taste monotony than anything. Next was the chocolate and it just blew me away! I almost feel guilty drinking it. It is that good. Both flavors mix well and sit well with my stomach and, of course, it does what it is supposed to do for you pre/post workout. Can't say enough about the excellent choco flavor. |

| I've been using Designer Whey for at least 10 years. It's easy to digest, and it doesn't make me gassy... that's really important. Cheap protein powders are hard to digest. I think the Chocolate flavor is really excellent, and Strawberry is a close second. The Vanilla flavors are okay but a little plain - Vanilla is good for recipes (add to pancakes) and adding bananas, peanut butter etc to your blender recipes. |

| I have tried both the Strawberry and the Chocolate. I prefer the Chocolate. The Strawberry tastes like Pepto-Bismol to me. |

| Bar none, the best tasting protein I have ever purchased. It is also more than just protein. It contains essential amino acids and vitamins (B6 and 12). It is relatively easy to mix (although the strawberry tends to mix easier than the chocolate). Definitely recommended. |

| Very good protein. It does not make you as fat as other proteins. The price is great, it tastes good and mixes well with water. |

| I'm a very picky eater but this protein drink actually tasted pretty good for something that's not meant to. I ordered it once and just ordered another 4.4lb container cause its definitely the best one I've tried. Add a bit of milk and ice to the chocolate one and you have one tasty pre/post work out drink. Definitely recommend it to those who want a good protein boost without choking on it. |

| This is my first protein shake I have tried and I love it! It is like drinking chocolate milk and definitely fills me up and refreshes me after a workout! I have gotten my friend hooked on it as well!! |

| It tastes pretty good considering it's a protein shake and it's decently filling. Also, you can add it to most food recipe's to increase the protein content. It's a good post-workout recovery meal as well. |

| Excellent product. Taste is very good. It dissolves thoroughly and quickly in liquids such as water, milk, and juice. The other day I made a banana shake (milk, banana, ice and Whey protein) and to my delight it was absolutely delicious. Great product! |

| I have not yet tried other brands of flavored whey protein mixes. However, the strawberry flavor is excellent. My wife says it bothers her stomach, but agrees the flavor is great. We also have tried the chocolate and natural. Both mix very well and quickly. They consistency is great and the chocolate tastes good too. |

| Excellent product. I have used it for many, many years. It provides a great tasting protein powder backed by a company which has been on the cutting edge of whey protein development. |

| I have used Designer Whey for years and find it to be an excellent product. I like the fact that it dissolves in anything: OJ, water, milk - and never clumps. I have had great results with it and will continue to use it. |

| I have used Designer Whey, Natural for years. I use it for baking low carb products. The fact is, it does not add any weird flavors to my baking. I usually use it to make low carb desserts, especially coffee cakes. |

| I'm a big fan of Designer Whey now after trying it out. I now buy the 5lb jug to save some cash. I'm also lactose intolerant and I have no problems with this product. It's not whey isolate but the price is right. |

| Designer Whey Natural is the only unsweetened protein powder I've found. This minimizes the consumption of artificial sweeteners abundant in most powders, and also eliminates the overwhelmingly sweet taste you get when combining sweetened powder with 50-60g dextrose. This flavor does NOT taste good on its own, but is perfect if you mix protein with dextrose. |

| It does not taste good, it has a bad after taste. I have the strawberry flavor, maybe I got a bad batch ,because taste is awful, the worst tasting whey protein I ever had and i bought it for the taste recommendation and nutrients in it. |

| I bought the 2 lb. tubs of Vanilla and Strawberry, At first they tasted ok, but now a couple of weeks later I can't stand the taste of them, especially the Vanilla, I have to chug them down, almost makes me sick to my stomach! I'm glad I'm almost done with the 2 tubs. I will not buy again, also they are a little high on cholesterol at 45mg a scoop. |

August 17, 2007 Reviewer: Robert in Texas |
| Designer protein was the first protein supplement powder I ever tried. At first I thought the taste was OK, but after a few weeks of taking it 2-3 times a day it started to make me nauseated. It even had a laxative effect which I'm sure was extremely detrimental to my muscle building goals. The strawberry tastes ok, but the vanilla is disgusting. When mixing it tends to form hard calculus on the sides of your glass or blender which you need to scrape off later. I personally have never tried the chocolate, but have read other reviews and hear similar complaints. Since my trials with Designer I have tried Cytosport's Muscle Milk and Optimum Nutrition's Pure Whey and have found them to be much tastier and easier on my gastrointestinal system. Plus they have more protein per serving. |
