Walmart Whey Protein Powders

dart368 Posts: 113 Joined: 2005/05/20	2006/10/29, 02:00 AM I was at Walmart and they sell three different brands of whey protein powders. One is EAS the other is Six Star and the other is something like Body Mechanics or something like that. Anyone use these before and if so, which one tastes the best? I know if I buy it and it tastes like sludge I won't take it and it will be a waste of money. Speaking of money, the 2 pound jug is only around $15.

I thought the 6 star was not bad in taste. The Body Fortress is ok too. Not a big fan of EAS, does not mix well at all. -------------- Maximus from Gladiator....Strength and Honor!

I love the Muscle Milk but am looking for something that is low carb, low fat and 100% whey protien. Which one will taste more like Muscle Milk? Thanks.

Then you only want clean calories that count as calories are at a premium, and protein becomes vitally important as most of them are protein. However, for just everyday stuff, trying to meet your protein needs, save your money on the expensive stuff and go cheap. Chances are you are eating enough food anyway to make little difference in the 'quality' of your protein intake. -------------- Maximus from Gladiator....Strength and Honor!
