Why's everyone hating on ON Gold Standard Whey recently?

[GSXR85]

how long ago did you try myo? it used to do the same for me. but, i recently traded for a tub of the new hydro version, and it does not have that effect on me.

Maybe a month or two ago, it said "New formula" on the container if I recall correctly. I was really let down with the taste after hearing all the praises, but I unlike many others in these types of threads understand everyones' taste buds are different and we interpret flavors differently.

I love ON, its one of the few that doens't give me the runs. Even Isopure gives me the runs.

yeah, in most cases it comes down to taste. if you enjoy the taste of ON, by all means stay with it. there's never been an issue over their quality (that i know of). i just don't care for it. doesn't taste good to me (when mixed with water........blech), and i don't like how thin it mixes.

I usually mix mine with 1% milk, that definitely makes it more enjoyable but I understand that doesn't fit in to everyones' macros. I occasionally use water and I don't really consider that enjoyable with any protein I've had so far.

Are we talking about quality or flavor here?

I personally love the stuff. I think theres probably better but I think ON Whey is still a good quality protein imo.

The quality is not good. The first ingredient is ion-exchanged whey isolate. There are enough posts and articles if you want to get educated why ion-exchange is inferior to cold-process proteins. Majority of the new popular proteins, like Trutein, Wheyology, XF Whey, XF Ultra Peptide, Myofusion, Intrapro, VPX, etc. are cold-processed.

I think the fact that ON has inferior processing and tastes worse than newer products on the market is simply because ON is an outdated protein that has not kept up with the advancements in protein processing and flavoring. They are able to sell because they have a huge marketing budget and people are ignorant, plain and simple!

Do you know if Elite Whey is OK in this regard?

I buy EAS protein from SAMs club @ $28 for 5lbs. and it tastes great! Best tasting powder IMHO

Talking about this kind. Does it suck, relatively speaking? It just tastes so well

Same thing....

Protein is protein. It uses ION-Exchange Isolate which is a cheaper method for processing but if you like the taste and the price buy it.

dude, you're not going to see a difference in your physique, if you switch to another protein. i like some of dymatize's flavors. and, i occasionally buy a couple 2 lbers. you're ok with that protein. you're not going to die from it. you won't get any horrible disease. some people want the best quality available, and consider ion-exchange protein to be otherwise.

imo, you're not going to put on more muscle with another type of protein. if you are digging the taste, stay with it.

negged...............you beat me to it.

But if you think dymatize tastes good you're living in a hole, time to climb out and experience the sun and the joys of truly good tasting protein

idk about that. smooth banana tastes pretty great. IMO. thats the only flavor however i feel dymatize has going for them. all their other flavors pretty much fringe on gag-tastic.

You do realize that this is subjective stuff, don't you?


But which one do you think tastes good then?
