Tried so many protein shakes and hated most of them. Way too sweet for me. Champion's chocolate is great!

When I was trying samples, this was the one I found tasted the best - like a chocolate milkshake - ironic. Anyway, it's a great product I still use after 6 years post-OP. The only con is that it is a reconstituted whey which is tougher to get into solution.

Way too rich of a chocolate flavor. Also, sweetened with fructose, not Splenda/sucrose. Too much like chocolate milk. Was expecting a chocolate taste that sang hymns to the heavens according to reviews here, but let down. Tastes like plain old chocolate milk. Yuck.

I tried it, and once again, what's important is the protein. I don't get these people who throw out samples after a couple sips; it is nutritional; it's not like if you don't like the taste, that means it is poisoned. I have yet to try the Syntrax Cappuccino Latte sample; I might like that better, because I think I just prefer my coffee flavor without chocolate. I am looking forward to testing the Chocolate in Pure Whey Stack, as people are saying it's like a fudgecicle. Both of these Champion flavors have fructose, which isn't preferred to Splenda/sucrose, but if you like the taste, why not? It certainly helps out with protein.

I began researching proteins for the RNY patient long before I had my surgery. I learned the best kind of protein for us is Whey Protein and that there are basically 3 forms of Whey Protein: Isolate, Concentrate, and Blended (a combination of the first 2). So, once I knew this, I went in search of a reasonably priced option ? because protein supplements can get expensive really fast. I was examining the products sold at Vitalady.com because these are people who have had bariatric surgeries and who would take the time to answer my many questions. I landed on the Champion Pure Whey Stack as something to try out and Vitalady.com actually sells the different flavors in individual serving sizes! Soooo, I purchased a sackful and set out to try them on for flavor. I learned there are 5 flavors I particularly like: Chocolate, Vanilla, Banana Scream, Cookies and Cream, and Chocolate/Peanut Butter. I also learned: they shake up into a thick creamy mixture without grit at my desk in about 4 ounces of really cold water ? which I figure will be just about right when I am post-op. I add one pack of Nutra Sweet at this point (I am still pre-op right now) because I like things really sweet. YUM!! Then, when I placed my first order, because it was more than $300 (I ordered 25 pounds of protein powder ? enough to last 4 months, as well as the vitamins I knew I would need) I got free shipping! I don?t think we can get a much better price than $1.61/day for more than 60 grams of bioavailabile protein. I?m hooked!

I mix it with Vanilla Cinnamon and drink it warm! Yummy!
