Just wondered if anyone has tried this flavor, and if it is any good? So far I have tried all the flavors except Banana Cream, Cookies 'n Cream, and Tropical Punch. If anyone has any comments about those flavors, that would be helpfull too.

cookies and cream was good at first, but the taste got old FAST and I've been trying to down the rest of it. The smell is actually the worst part. It makes me want to throw up.

Cookies 'n Cream was the WORST! I had just bought a jug of it, left the gym, and mixed a shake in my car. Just the smell of the protein powder "dust" when you open the jug made me want to gag. The next morning my girl and I got in the car, and she wanted to know what had died and started to rot in my car. The smell was still there. Had to spray febreeze in the car to get it close to normal again!
I just plan on sticking with the tried and true chocolate or vanilla.

Wow, graphic. Thats enough of a reason for me to never try that. Im still wondering if that banana flavor is any good. Definately not a bad idea just sticking to the basic flavors though, cant go wrong there.Originally Posted by jason1052004

Wow theres a lot of people who dont like the cookies and creme. I personally like it. At first I didnt like the taste or smell but after maybe 3 or 4 shakes, I started getting used to it. I even found myself feening it sometimes. I just got in a tub of rocky road and it tasted really plain. Like a really really really watered down chocolate shake. My second shake wasnt as bad though. I think you just got to get used to the taste. Try it with some milk if taste is an issue to you.

tropical punch is good
I really like the tropical punch. It goes down really easy after a tough workout.
Ive never had the cookies and cream or banana. I think I might try the banana next time I order though because I have really liked all banana shakes Ive bought in the past.

Ok...aparntely i'm the only one here's who's actually tasted the banana cream. Hope this helps...Remember the little fruit shaped candies u get for a quarter on those old school candy dispensers, well it tastes exactly like the little banana-shaped one. And when i say exactly, I mean EXACTLY. Its like they ground those mofo's up and mixed them with whey

I drank so many nasty gainers that when my brother offered me some ON Cookies and Cream I thought it tasted like bliss (or mocha lol). I still like it… but I suppose I’m a strange guy. Everyone on here in the past ranted about this too.
I hope that the banana cream flavor is good!! I like banana runts!!

The Tropical Punch is the worse flavor I have ever tried of any whey. It tastes like a creamy punch. But I guess some people actually like the flavor ... I wonder if this will taste anything like the Dymatize Smooth Banana which I must say is some of the best protein I have ever tried.Originally Posted by AGould8423

Mint Chocolate
French Vanilla Creme
I'm interested too in trying Banana Creme.**New Jersey Crew (732)**

Banana Cream review
I'm just finishing the tub of banana cream ON whey that I recently bought. The taste is very good. Probably the best-tasting protein shake I've ever had. The only negative, I would say, is that it doesn't mix as well as some of the other protein powders I've bought in recent months...but definitely tastes good!

Banana cream isn't too bad. It gets VERY old though... and quick. I have a tub and the only way I can really tolerate it is by blending it up with some fruit and eggs. Foams up a fair bit so I toss it in the freezer for a tasty treat. A single scoop of banana cream and milk mixes and tastes good, but I rarely drink protein with one scoop because I mix it up in volume...
I like cookies and cream too. No one likes it though. It has a bit of a weird mocha taste to me. Maybe it's my taste buds. I can definitely tolerate it, but it doesn't taste the greatest with oats. So I only drink it with milk (after tossing it in the freezer of course).
Chocolate mint is the bomb. Tastes decent with water, tastes great with milk (including multiple scoops) and mixes great with oats and water post workout. Just picked up another tub. Between all the Muscle Milk I have, I've got a nice variety of protein. I use them for different situations so it works out all right, but banana cream isn't too versatile... 5lbs will last quite a while. Meh. At least it's pretty tolerable if you drink it in moderation. I wouldn't suggest that people rush out and buy it unless they're banana fans to begin with.
tropical punch is good
