Going BANANAs with Giant Sports Protein

[Jmhager]

Huge thanks to BK, PJ and Giant Sports for hookin me up once again as a logger for their brand new protein!

It's

B. A. N. A. N. A. S.





In my package: (Pics to come)
a 2-lb tub of banana protein
a VIP Logger shirt
and a lab report on my specific tub

Just as any other Giant sports protein powder, it boasts more protein per scoop than most others... 27g!

Review video for protein in water is currently on YouTube but my computer is not cooperating with me!! Vid will be on here soon!

Review in water:

Profile: Perfect profile in my opinion! 27g of protein, low carbs & fat... Perfect!

Mixability: Never had a problem with mixability in GS protein products. This was great!

Texture: IN my experience I have preferred 10oz of liquid rather than the suggested 6-8oz. It has a light texture that is pleasant and goes down easy.

Smell: In powder form it smells absolutely awesome!! Like a banana with a hint of vanilla.

Taste: Okay so here is what we have all been waiting for!!

In my opinion it hits with 2 separate flavors! Initially, it's a strong and smooth banana flavor (just like a real banana-- just a bit sweeter and tastier), then it finishes off with a vanilla flavor! There is no bad aftertaste but it is similar to eating a banana. A very light flavor lingers in your mouth!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! BANANA LOVERS --- MUST TRY!!!

Review in Milk:

Profile: the addition of milk added 8g of protein, 12g of carbs and & no fat... 35g of protein, 16g of carbs, & 2.2g of fat

Mixability: Milk always makes for a slightly tougher mix but this did very well!

Texture: Using Milk instead of water made the shake much more creamier in texture and much thicker.

Smell: Mixed in milk it smelled like a creamy banana milkshake!

Taste: The best way for me to describe this would be to piggy-back off of my first review (in water). It basically tastes like I explained earlier except in milk it has a much more creamy flavor. It gave me the thickness and taste of a blending banana ice cream milk shake! The milk really brought out both the banana flavor of it as well as the vanilla in there.

Delicious!

Do you prefer this over Cookies and Creme (my favorite Giant Sports flavor)?

Honestly I dont think you can compare them! CnC is absolutely amazing and unique and so is banana! They are the best tasting shakes I have tried for their flavor! Banana is like a blend of banana and vanilla!
