Solgar Whey to Go Natural Chocolate Flavour Whey Protein Powder 1162g - Grass-Fed Whey from New Zealand Cows - Aids Growth and Repair of The Body - Vegetarian and Gluten-Free

I scoured the net far and wide to find a whey protein powder that 1. tasted good and 2. had nothing artificial. It was hard going but I finally found the one. This is excellent quality. I get absolutely NO bloating with this and guess what? It's tastes great in WATER too! Yes, it's a tad on the expensive side but this is some good protein and I feel that it's working. Furthermore, this protein is from cows that are not treated with those horrendous growth hormones! Well worth it.

Over the years I have tried many different brands of protein. Whilst this may not be the cheapest, I will list the positives: 1) Mixes really well with water (note I did try the strawberry flavour too, but it didn't seem to blend as easily) 2) The taste is really good 3) The product does not contain any nasty sweetners or colours 4) Packaging is well made and the plastic lid seals back on nicely 5) You do not get stomach bloating as with some brands I was recommended Solgar protein by a friend who in turn has been recommended it by a sports nutrionist. Do not be fooled by the marketing and hype of some of the bigger brands. This is a high quality whey protein.

If you are looking for a premium Whey Protein powder that has all the ingredients you want. Then look no further. Try it !! You will not be disappointed!!

I have been taking this for over 4 weeks now, having started with the vanilla flavour which I loved so decided to try the chocolate and strawbery ones as well. Love all the flavours, the chocolate one I like to mix in my porridge in the morning or in my pancakes since I'm not a very big fan of chocolate milk (that's the taste you get when you mix it with almond milk - or any kind of milk I guess). My favorite is the strawberry one but i like the vanilla one as well. The only protein powder I had tried before was the Nutriclear by Biotics Research but it tasted horribly and was quite expensive so decided to go with this one by recommendation of my nutritionist and I guess I'll stick with it since it's such good quality and good flavour.

Love this powder and it seems to be one of the few naturally sourced/made protein powders in the UK. I bought this when it was on special and my only gripe is the cost when it is full price, making it prohibitively expensive in my opinion. Shame it wasn't a bit cheaper otherwise, I'd buy it all the time. Chocolate is great!

Great tasting and doesn't upset my stomach like some shakes do. I've tried the vanilla flavour which is okay, but has a weird aftertaste. This one is much better tasting I think! I follow a FODMAP diet and this protein shake is great for me - no bloating at all! Also definitely noticed an improvement in muscle tone alongside training with this product. Highly recommended! Bit more expensive than some but worth paying more, seems really good quality and this amount for the price is really good value. If you're not sure try a smaller tin first which is what I did, then paid the extra for much more product. :-)

Tastes horrible to me

I really like the flavour of this protein powder. Sometime I mix it into my morning yogurt with fruit, nuts and seeds, and it mixes fine. Mostly I just mix it with water for a post-workout drink, and it mixes pretty well, not really any lumps, and only tiny if any. I don't shake it in a bottle, just mix it in a glass with a spoon. It seems to be doing the job, but I am no expert here.

I am amazed at how easily this mixes. The first few times I used it, I mixed it in a Magic Bullet with 8oz whole milk and half of a frozen banana. I drank it right away and you could barely taste the powder. I thought the banana would be necessary to help conceal the texture of the whey protein, which is what I've done with other protein powders in the past. For this one, I still ad a few frozen banana slices, but it's okay without them. Just a personal taste preference. Now, I just use one of those blender bottles with the wire whisk ball (sans banana). It blends so smoothly. If I think ahead, I mix it the night before so that I can just grab it on my way out the door in the morning (to drink after I workout). It doesn't taste exactly like chocolate milk, but the taste is still pretty good. It's definitely the best-tasting chocolate flavor I've found in any protein powder. It's great that it isn't an artificial flavor, it really is made of dutch cocoa powder. Also, no weird hormones or chemical additives. And it's gluten-free. Apparently, Whey to Go protein powders used to be soy-free, but this one does contain soy. Just a heads-up for anyone who has to avoid soy. I plan to try the natural vanilla flavor next. I went with the natural chocolate for my first try of this brand because it was a better buy in the 41oz size.

I started strength training over a month ago and this is my second time ordering Whey To Go. I've trued several protein drinks including Muscle Milk, but have found that most products either have too much artificial sugars or other health hazards or are so diluted, you have to drink several cup fulls (3-5) just to get the required amount post-workout, not to mention they taste pretty bad or overly sugary (with artificial flavors) and you end up trying to avoid it. Whey To Go manages to give you concentrated protein content that comes from a healthy source and doesn't taste too bad (with water and a good mixing bottle, it tastes somewhat like watered down chocolate). I am able to have just two scoops post-workout to fulfill my protein requirement and even with water, the drink is barely 1/2 a liter. I am able to drink fairly comfortably and really helps with my workout. Used on a regular basis, (nearly 1-2 cups a day) this will last you longer than other protein powders. A great combination of healthy and tasty, this is one of the best whey protein powers on the market!

I've been buying Solgar chocolate protein power for years. Mixed easily, no after taste. Loved it. My last order I ended up with the "Grass Fed" version. I thought they just changed the packaging... I was wrong. The first thing I noticed was it was really hard to get mixed. Ended up with a glass full of sticky lumps. For minutes I had to mash them against the inside of the glass with a spoon (like a mortar and pestle) to get it drinkable. Then there is the "new-formulation" which, to me, tastes terrible. Very strong after taste. Unfortunately I bought two big cans of it, so being a frugal-miser I'll pinch my nose and suffer through them but these will be the last cans of Solgar I buy (unless I can find the previous version).

So it has some carbs (aka sugar cane... not fake sweetener garbage), which I find to be a bonus; you're supposed to have some carbs with your protein right after a workout anyhow. It tastes delicious and dissolves well, as long as you add the powder to the water/milk/etc. in a lidded container and shake the crap out of it IMMEDIATELY... I mean don't even pause to put the container back in your pantry; shake it right away or it will chunk up a little. Plus, this is an extremely high quality product. In a consumer reports study, this was the only tested protein powder that had little to no heavy metals. Quite a few of my women friends/gym rats drink only this (especially during pregnancies) for just this reason, though it's by no means a "women's" product. I like to add it to 8 oz. of unsweetened almond milk to make it extra creamy, add calcium, and it's only 30 more calories added instead of 90 for skim milk.

I love this protein powder because it is one of the ONLY ones on the market that does NOT contain Stevia. That being said, this is not an overly sweet protein drink. It tastes natural and pleasant - no stevia aftertaste, which I dislike tremendously. I blend one scoop of whey to go with half almond milk and half water and a handful of ice cubes. It's not overly creamy, but has a nice chocolaty flavor without overwhelming your taste buds with stevia sweet/chemical aftertaste. I hope Solgar never caves to the marketing frenzy and begins adding stevia to this product. I don't eat refined sugar - solgar uses fruit sugar from beets. I drank this everyday during my pregnancy and the extra protein always made me feel better. Thank you Solgar for not adding Stevia - stand strong!
