Damn, ha. No worries mang. Reviews are so mixed, can't see myself buying a full tub, especially with all the protein I have now
Everybody has different taste buds man, and I happen to think the Rocky Road is legit. Very unique, and for the price it's awesome IMO.
Not for everyone though, I suppose. As with anything else. Sorry you didn't enjoy itNASM Certified Personal Trainer and Nutritionist

The rocky road was better than the vanilla almond, but like I said, I wasn't too much of a fan of either. When I get back to bulking, I'll be having quite a bit of proats, though, so I may end up picking up a tub or two of the RR since it is so cheap. 5-6k calories while in grad school will make me cheap ass and it's an easy meal

It'd be like preparing your entire life to bang 100 chicks in a row, getting tan, hitting the gym, making sure your hair looks right and reading the Kama Sutra, only to realize when you get there that you're gay and cannot get hard in the presence of women.

Ah yeah nice, rice and potatoes are cheap enough.
I eat the same meal from 3/5, myself. Often 4/5.
Dinner I do like to change, though. Be it making a rice dish, pasta dish, potato dish or noodle one with the occasional pizza. Enough variety for me there. I just buy chicken and beef, and change sauces/add cheese or not on top of any usual veg.

Ha, you know me mate - since you recommended XT to me circa 2010, I've never actually not had a tub on hand
Got 2 x Fudge Brownie and 2 x Vanilla atm.
I've just heard so many great things about this choc peanut butter cup and it's back in stock with the Aussie supplier so want to give it a shot.
Do also want to give Dymatize's casein a go too.

How come so many people seem to be going with Trutein and Elite XT? I've checked the profiles and they're pretty low in protein (both less than 70g per 100g of powder), with Trutein also being really expensive. Is it just that you prefer the taste so much more over stuff like, say, ON's Gold Standard or Dymatize Elite Whey?

Every flavor of Trutein has 24-25g of protein per 34g scoop, so it's going to be slightly over 70g per 100g of powder. It also tastes phenomenal, and has a thicker consistency than purely whey due to the casein and egg, making it better for cooking/sludge/oats. The price of Trutein is similar (or cheaper at some places ) than the products you mentioned. Elite XT is cheaper everywhere, and I also find it to be thicker and more delicious than your preferences. Give them a try and see for yourself

Hmm, it seems three of them have 23g, one has 24g and one has 25g. But alright, let's say it's 70g per 100g I think for now I'm sticking with those two, but I guess if everyone's recommending the taste, it might be a worthy consideration if I ever decide to change. I just know I always feel bad buying whey (or protein powder) with less than around 75g protein per 100g, don't know why. I figure if I'm buying a protein supplement, the more the better.
