Strawberry Banana Muscle Milk. no need to mix with milk though. Water does just fine if you do 12oz of water with 2 scoops or Muscle Milk.

don't by the "fresh strawberry" flavor. it tastes like ass. lol

I use whey isolate because it fits my bill...I'm looking for something that has (per scoop)..~100 cals and ~25g of protein.

This is what I'm working with right now. I go through each bucket in 2 weeks max so price point becomes an issue too. MGN's stuff is on promotion at muscleandstrength.com right now for $18 a bucket and comes on various flavors. Tastes great too. The 4Ever is from the local Vitamin World, but at $30 a pop, I'm going to switch it out for a comparable flavor of MGN. I got Cinnamon Bun and Chocolate Mint coming in the mail on Tuesday.
seems like the MGN stuff is better for you than the BSN stuff??

Syntha-6, no doubt.

Not sure how anyone could like the taste of Isopure the best... Took that stuff for two years because it apparently had some of the highest concentration of protein amongst shakes on the market.... But I was nauseous for hours afterwards just because it was so nasty.

Syntha 6 is the nicest tasting protein out there. But it's a lot of unnecassary carbs. I am in the UK and use a brand of unflavoured protein. It's cheap and mixes well in anything. I want the protein, couldn't care less about the taste. Jus ma 0.02

Here's what I can remember having off the top of my head:

-Optimum Nutrition - it was okay, no where near as good as the mass whoreness it gets on ******* and has a chemical aftertaste that I couldn't get out of my head and will never get it again because of it.

-Sytha-6 - awesome

-Muscle Milk - tastes good, and helped me gain some weight. does have a bit of a aftertaste.

-Allmax Isoflex - FUCKING DISGUSTING CRAP!!!!! The most horrible aftertaste.

-Champion Nutrition - great stuff and highly underrated

-Labrada V60 - good stuff and I would probably buy this more regularly if it weren't so damn expensive. also underrated.

-Dymantize Elite Whey - it tastes okay, but even using a magic bullet it was excessively grainy.

-Bout to order Myoflex due to all the rave just to see.

And if you're complaining about calories or carbs don't use those products, everyone has different needs and goals.

Am I the only one who uses MHP products? I know they're a bit expensive, but surely there are some ballers here.

I use Syntha 6. It is expensive for the amount of servings in the container (which, btw, you need to take 1 1/2 or 2 scoops for the necessary amount of protein), but it take it because:

1. It tastes good.
2. It mixes relatively easily with little to no clumpiness
3. It doesn't upset my stomach.

I have never tried BSN before. My friend put me onto MGN. I looked at the content and it's similar to what I was using before, the 4Ever Whey Isolate except it's nearly 50% cheaper.

I bought 2 buckets to try and liked it. Going to stick with it as long as the prices stay the way they are.

I should add that I would probably use something cheaper if that product didn't upset my stomach.

*******

Became loyal to them when I was in the military and deployed. Relatively cheap and quick USPS shipping and excellent prices. Plus, some of their free gifts were useful from time to time.

Their Chocolate Mint is better, IMO.

I use DPSnutrition.com, good prices, quick shipping, and their website is always up to date so you know their stock. I used to shop at Prosource but I got tired of ordering from them only to find out a part of my order is out of stock.

As for protein taste...
I like the new Gaspari protein and ON Nitrocore 24.

Muscle Milk was by far the best tasting drink around..I mean the premade drinks taste like freaking McDonald's Milkshakes, however like everyone said, that shit isn't good for you. I used Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey before that and it works great so I went back to it.
