I've been drinking Cookies n Creme and Chocolate Milk flavored Muslce Milk for a while and am now looking to spend less money on shakes. Has anyone tried the ON Whey Protein in either cookies n creme or chocolate flavor? Are they good? How do they compare in taste to Muscle Milk? I am pretty sensitive to taste and don't want to buy it if i'm not going to be able to drink it. Thanks!

I have ON Strawberry, tastes just like icecream/fruitgum and is especially good with milk.

MuscleMilk taste is far superior and it mixes great with water. It is a casein protein vs ON which is a whey in most cases.
I actually buy two tubs and mix them both together in most cases. I buy MuscleMilk strawberry banana and mix it with ON frend vanilla.
As far as results go, ive packed on a ton of muscle with musclemilk and got some pretty good results with ON although I take it less often except when i mix the two.
Taste: MuscleMilk
Muscle Gain: Equal Probably

ON double chocolate is the best protein flavor i have tasted, mind you it isnt awesome, but definitely good enough to drink a few a day.

Chocholate Mint taste good with water and GREAT with milk..I love it!
I like the idea of mixing strawberry bannana muscle milk and french vanilla ON...saves a decent amount of money and your still getting 2 great sources of protein...and I bet it taste even better than it sounds.

Go with the double rich chocolate from ON. I had the cookies 'n cream before and had to give it away because I didn't like the taste so much. Cookies 'n cream tastes more like a bad mocha coffee or something. Don't get the milk chocolate either, my buddy got that and it's not half as good as the double rich chocolate. Watch the cholesterol in ON whey if you plan on using it a lot. I was having 2-3 shakes a day with two scoops in each. The problem is that each scoop has 10% of your daily cholesterol. I don't know if that's a concern for you, but I figured I'd mention it. I switched to Dymatize's Elite which might be a little better product for cheaper. It doesn't taste as good, but I just put a small scoop of peanut butter in with it and it makes it the best tasting shake I've ever had, no exaggeration.
Good luck choosing.

If you could afford it, I would get both.
ON whey is great for post workout. IMO
Muscle Milk with skim milk is great right before bed. It's digests slowly.
I try and have both around all the time but when and doubt go with ON. Tastes good and has a killer ingredient list.
Both great products.
If I had to choose just one, ON.

I am a regular ON Double Rich Chocolate drinker. Tastes great with milk. The best flavor I have ever had hands down is ON's limited edition Extreme Milk Chocolate. This stuff is AMAZING with milk. I have been searching forever for a 5lb package of this stuff, but I can only find it in little one serving packs within 5lb packages.

I usually drink it with water after workouts. It is still pretty good. It is by no means like a milkshake, but still good considering it is protein. I've never had the extreme milk chocolate with water, only milk as I've only had it twice :-(Originally Posted by whitemagic

x2 chocolate is pretty good. i've only had muscle milk in vanilla and i'd say it tastes better than ON but it has like 20 grams of sugar and fat in it. considering that ON is something like 80% protein i'd say it tastes pretty good and it mixes like a dream.Originally Posted by RoidRage300
