I purchased the Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey - Chocolate Mint Flavour. Unfortunately it does not have enough mint flavour for me, its more Chocolate than mint but its still a great tasting protein.

Fantastic value, taste and easily dissolved in water. I'm using to lose weight, 1 meal replacement and my Son as an additional meal to build himself up. Both very pleased and we will continue to purchase as needed.

9/10 Double Rich Chocolate

First time user of protein powder. Will have to see how well it works but seems to help recovery. Double chocolate flavour is what I got. It’s ok but not quite a chocolate milkshake. Lol.
