Smell: Boy does this powder stink and not in a good way! Even after it is mixed up it smells like caca

Mixability: I mixed 1 scoop in 8 ozs of water using a Blender Bottle and it mixes very well. No clumps. It looks like a cup full of bile (see picture above)

Taste: The flavoring is Wild Berry. It doesn't taste as bad as it looks. It has a slight chemical taste and the Wild Berry flavoring is not bad.

I have tasted worse supplements!

[COUNTRYMIKE]

If they have a CountryMike flavor, I'm in.

I'll send this request along to Markus

[Vitruvian]

George......

you pick that Blender Bottle out yourself......?

[COUNTRYMIKE]

George......

you pick that Blender Bottle out yourself......?

I bought that for him

[Free Weight Friedel]

George......

you pick that Blender Bottle out yourself......?

Yes, why?

It's a small one.

[COUNTRYMIKE]

Yes, why?

It's a small one.

It's also pink ......not that there is anything wrong with that

Ingredients:

Magnum Quattro™ 4-Stage Matrix (Whey Protein Isolate 90%+, Milk Protein Isolate 90%+, Micellar Casein 85%+, Egg Protein Isolate), Cocoa Powder, Natural And Artificial Flavors, Xanthan, Organic Cocoa Powder, Non-Dairy Creamer, Organic Cane Sugar, Organic Flaxseed Powder, Sucralose, Bromelain (Digestive Enzyme), Conjugated Linoleic Acid Ethyl Ester)

Smell:

Chocolate Love - This smells awesome! It has a Dark Chocolate smell.

Strawberry Fields - This smells very good! It has a lighter smell, not a heavy strawberry smell.


Mixability: BOTH - I mixed 2 scoops of each flavor with 16 ozs of water, in separate Blender Bottles, and the mixing was outstanding. No clumps in either one and it did not take alot of shaking to mix them.


Taste:

Chocolate Love - This tastes outstanding and it rivals the top tasting Chocolate proteins on the market. It has a thicker taste to it. This is as good as XF's Chocolate UP 2.0 and Gaspari's Myofusion & Intrapro.

Strawberry Fields - This has a lighter taste to it compared to XF's UP 2.0 & Gaspari's Myofusion. It is very refreshing.

There was virtually no after taste from either one. I would buy both flavors.

[Vitruvian]

Alright... well, cool....

I'll just be going... got a big day tomorrow....
