Out of the three, which one have you guys found... (in order of [best, in between, worst])
1) tastes the best?
2) feels like it gives better results?
3) better nutrition profile?
I'm considering buying one of the three proteins, preferably a 5lbs tub, and would absolutely love it if you guys could give me some of your opinions, preferences, comments on the three, etc., etc.
Thanks guys,
Marcus

well myofusion is good once in awhile but if you go through protein like me that would be overkill on the vitamin A which shortens life expectency
ON whey is ok, they try to sneak ion exchange whey in there on you though
dymatize I didnt really like in the past but I havnt tried them since they started using Ajinomoto aminos
so my answer is XF Ultra Peptide WheySponsored MAN Nolvadren XT Log: http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=148109363

Xtreme Formulations, Gaspari Myofusion, Labrada, Betancourt, Nimbus, TruNutrition. You should never need to buy any protein outside of those companies save a rare protein here or there.
Many people will say "ON rocks!", etc. But very few people saying that have tried much else. Polls like this are mostly asking "which protein have you tried?". If you sat people down with three unlabeled samples, one each from dymatize, gaspari, and ON... you'd be lucky to see more than 1/10 pick either ON or dymatize. The difference is shocking when you sip them side by side.
Perhaps it's sad, but I can actually pick out dymatize protein and ON protein from their after-taste / chemical taste. They are very distinct across almost the entire line of both their proteins. To their credit, Dymatize's new Fusion 7 is actually very good... hopefully they reformulate their older proteins to bring them up to par.Latest Reviews:

That's actually a good point. I'm not so sure about shortening life expectancy... but the Vit-A content of Myofusion is really the only gripe I have with it. I wish they'd dump the cheap vitamins out of the formulation. Too much pre-formed Vit-A can potentially lead to bone health issues later in life, at the very least.Latest Reviews:

My opinios for these are the next:
Elite: decent taste, excellent price good profile, decent texture
ON: Good profile, taste is not that sweet as elite, price is a bit higher you have over 15 flavors to pick.
Myofusion: This is the best tasting protein ive ever taken on my supplements life, texture is thick and i liked it too much. the price is $40 per 60 servings or so.
I didnt type any stuff over results, i think results are given for your diet or routine, these just help you to reach your protein intake.
For the price Id go elite
For the taste myo
Over all I would pick ON I hope this help you.

Completely true about the carotenoids. I wish more companies would replace their preformed A with at LEAST beta-carotene if not mixed carotenoids.
Same goes for Vit-E. Mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols... particular gamma. Rather than just d-alpha-tocopherol which can actually hinder absorption of the more useful gamma.
I'm less picky about the B vits, though it'd be nice if they used the co-enzyme forms.
It's rare to see someone actually discussing the benefits or potential downsides of particular vitamin/mineral forms around here. Refreshing Peter and Neopragmatist are usually two of the only ones doing so, but they've been doing so less lately.Latest Reviews:
