"Good Protein, got a bad flavor" 2010-02-18
By Matt S. (NYC)
I just received the Cookies and Cream flavor for this product, and it was okay. I was expecting an Oreo type cookies and cream flavor, but this tastes like that fake cookie dough flavor. It is similar to the taste of a cookies and cream Powerbar, except this has too strong of that artificial cookie dough flavor, which is not a good thing. The smell is not what you'd expect for the flavor, it is quite overpowering with the artificial flavor with a hint of coffee as some other reviewers mentioned.



I got this flavor because I wanted to try something different, and it won in a coin toss against chocolate. It is drinkable, but I would not recommend this flavor. It tastes a little better in milk, but I usually take my shakes with water. I would give it a 6/10.



The price is right and the quality is there. I will be sticking with ON, but want to try Double Chocolate or Vanilla Chai next.



tl;dr

Cookies and Cream flavor okay. 6/10. Would not recommend this flavor.

Erroneously ordered and then immediately canceled this item. Amazon has yet to refund my money! Be careful what you order.

"NOT the best tasting" 2010-02-16
By Sam (Sunnyvale, CA United States)
I've tried all 17 Optimum flavors and they are NOT the best tasting. I like protein shakes that taste like a dessert with absolutely zero "protein shake" taste. The only flavor I could enjoy a little was "Mocha Cappuccino", because the bitter coffee after taste masked the "protein shake" taste.



If you're picky and not liking Optimum either, I suggest trying Wellements Pro-Rate Vanilla Cream. It is the only protein shake I can truly enjoy. Don't get the Wellements chocolate flavor, I only had one scoop of the entire 6lbs bag and had to give it away to my ex-...Yuck.



My tongue works very well and yes, I am very picky.









"Great source of protein" 2010-02-14
By Ron M
I thought that the price was reasonable and it was a great source of protein. The flavor is iffy but it does the job. I will probably try some other brands too and might end up back at this one again.
