Taste and Flavor

Pros:

  • "It tastes just fine by itself."
  • "It is very easy to mix and does not have a thick or heavy after taste at all."
  • "It tastes exactly what whey should taste like, slightly like dairy, but otherwise inert."
  • "The taste is non existent if mixed with anything besides water."
  • "Taste is subtle, clean and good. Tastes just like a clean protein should taste without any fillers."
  • "The taste and smell are slightly unappealing."
  • "I am super happy about this protein."

Cons:

  • "For something that isn’t supposed to have any flavor - it epically failed."
  • "It's a bit chalky, does not mix up into food or small amounts of liquid well because it requires a lot of powder to reach desired serving per grams."
  • "The stuff says it's unflavored and I suppose it technically is. BUT...it reminds of a very very good and rich full fat milk."
  • "The taste is atrocious."
  • "At first I just used water and the powder but I legit threw up in my mouth cause it tasted like baby formula lol."
  • "Tastes like watery powdered milk. If you mix it with milk it is not too bad."
  • "However, the taste does leave much to be desired -- true, it's supposed to be pure whey protein, but some basic additional flavor would help ease the slightly nauseating sense you have when drinking this, mixed with creatine, after a hard workout."

Packaging and Storage

Pros:

  • "The zipper seal makes it easy to open and close."
  • "The bag is VERY hard to close, my husband actually asked me why I kept leaving the bag open."
  • "The packaging was great, The product was completely sealed and fresh, easy to open and close the bag."
  • "The only downside is the bag it comes in, it'll pop open sometimes but that's no big problem."
  • "The bag doesn’t close well, but I just use a clip and put it in a ziplock to keep it fresh."
  • "The zip to seal the package is basically non-existent."
  • "The bag it comes in. It doesn’t reseal very well after it is opened."

Cons:

  • "The bag is very hard to seal once opened."
  • "Note Packaging isn't the greatest, as the zip-loc opening never seals have to wrap it in a larger bag... poor packaging design from the sealing of the bag aspect."
  • "The only thing is the bag doesn't want to close after you open it."
  • "The bag's seal is a bit of a bummer. If you're not extra careful, that strip just waves the white flag and rips off, making a mess."
  • "When I opened the bag I didn't find the scoop, and I'm half way down and it's no where to be found."
  • "The seal in the bag is terrible (thin/cheap) and won't seal even on my first usage."
  • "Tried to return but the product is not eligible for return."

Mixability and Texture

Pros:

  • "Product mixed well, and was smooth to drink. No clumping. No aftertaste."
  • "Easy to mix into water using a shaker bottle (with wire ball)."
  • "This one is perfect because it blends easy is a shaker cup as well as a blender."
  • "It mixes really well and makes it easy to drink without getting lumps in your mouth."
  • "Mixes well with water and does not have a strong taste at all."
  • "It mixes easily- and goes great in smoothies, and has kind a powdered milk vibe to it."
  • "The product mixed easily into smoothies, milk-based drinks, and oatmeal. This product will dissolve in liquids. It does not have a significant taste or graininess."

Cons:

  • "It will mix with some vigorous hand stirring, but after a few tries I prefer using our stick blender to quickly and completely mix the powder."
  • "However it does get way too foamy/bubbly. Literally half my shaked cup foamed up."
  • "Simply shaking doesnt cut it; a hand blender works great though."
  • "Unfortunately, it froths like crazy when you mix it in a blender/magic bullet."
  • "The powder 'cakes up' quite easily and takes a while to mix with liquid."
  • "It does not mix well with cold liquids and just a spoon, but mixes just fine with a shaker bottle."
  • "The protein powder does not mix. It turned to rubbery clumps when liquid was added."

Value and Quality

Pros:

  • "Total protein was about 48g for only 335 calories."
  • "This doesn’t give me stomach problems and does not bloat me !!! It just feels pure and clean!"
  • "I cannot find any other that matches the taste, quality and price point."
  • "It seems to be pretty cost effective compared to other options available out there."
  • "This Whey Protein Isolate Powder boasts an impressive level of purity."
  • "I’ve used MANY protein powders. This one by FAR has been the best! It’s clean, no fillers or junk."
  • "This is a good clean protein option that is at an affordable price point."

Cons:

  • "I would not recommend this product if you have Lactose intolerant issues."
  • "The part that sucks is they use inferior shipping to get you your product."
  • "Unfortunately, my experience with this product has been nothing short of disappointing."
  • "I got the same effect from this as I did from whey protein concentrates. Bubbleguts, and skin breakouts."
  • "I will not be buying Bulk Supplements products again."
  • "My biggest complaint is that while it says it is 'pure' it may be made from cows treated with rBGH and is definitely not organic."
  • "Sadly it will have to be trash. Recommend an alternate product at end of this review."
