Great Product!

I've used Optimum Nutrition's Whey protein powder for 3 yrs now and love the stuff. I put one scoop into my yogert in the morning and I'm good to go!

Greate taste for natural whey, but bitter aftertaste.

After using the optimum nutrition double rich chocolate whey for a while, I decided to try this all natural chocolate flavor. Overall it tastes very similar except I noticed several key differences with this natural chocolate version compared to the regular double rich chocolate.

#1 - It seems to have a bitter aftertaste. I assume this is because they used stevia as a natural sweetener which also tends to have a bitter aftertaste.

#2 - It mixes ok in a shaker cup with milk, but not quite as well as the regular double rich chocolate. With this natural chocolate flavor, I noticed that there's always a couple small tiny chunks in my cup which isn't that big of a deal, but also I notice that it creates really thick bubbles at the top after shaking it, which makes it difficult to drink without swallowing a bunch of air unless I let it sit for a couple minutes.

#3 - I can't cook as well with this natural chocolate flavor. I tried making pancakes with it, and also putting it in my oats (both of which are usually delicious with regular double rich chocolate flavor) and it did not turn out well at all. I will still experiment more with using natural chocolate flavor for cooking though.

Although I have the minor gripes as stated above, i still give this product 4 stars because overall it's an excellent protein powder and it does the job very well. It still tastes great compared to other protein powders i've tried.

Another good product from Optimum Nutrition

While it doesn't quite taste or mix as well (Blender recommended for this one) as Optimum Nutrition's non 100% natural line, it does provide a high quality protein shake. If you are concerned about artificial sweeteners then this is the product for you. If you could care less about artificial sweeteners and want something that tastes just a little bit better, I'd recommend the regular double rich chocolate.

Solid product

I have definitely enjoyed this product and gotten results. I am comforted to know that the flavoring is natural and the protein is high quality. The flavor is a little awkward to get used to but mixes well with many options; my favorite being orange Gatorade. I would definitely recommend this product.
