Customer Reviews: Whey Protein Blend (5 lb) by All The Whey
hmmm price is up By: josephReview posted on: Fri Feb 26 19:53:08 -0500 2010 ive been a loyal customer for couple of years now but the price increase is a dissapointment for me on the 5 lbs blend. i can get i whey isolate with same amount of servings and more protein for the same price or less thats why this month wil be switching to a different brand. quality is good but price increase not soo goood Taste and texture have changed By: MikeReview posted on: Sat Nov 21 02:12:52 -0500 2009 I made my first purchase about 9 months ago through SD - it was great tasting and had a good consistency. Three months later my second 5 pounder looked, tasted, and mixed differently. I thought I may have gotten a bad batch, it also came in a pouch instead of tub. It could have been a fluke but the next batch was more of the same. I don't think I'll purchase AlltheWhey again. Too bad cause the price is great. Change in source? By: danielReview posted on: Mon Jun 15 13:26:01 -0400 2009 I've gone through 3 bottles of this, 1st was cup cake batter, loved the flavor, tasted like actual cup cakes, and then tried the much talked about cinnamon bun, which was great as well. Then went back to the cupcake batter flavor, and there was definately a big change in the ingredients... It tasted nothing like the first jug, much worse, and on top of the consistancy being slightly grainy, the protein itself produced a thick foam when mixed with just water, and all of these being a new development compared to the first batch. Who knows whats going on, but until I find out confirmation from some one else, I am switching to something else. Nothing Spectacular By: TonyReview posted on: Thu Apr 30 11:03:02 -0400 2009 Based on reviews, I was expecting a flavor that rivaled Muscle Milk. Sadly, the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup didn't come close. It's a good value, but I'd probably go with ON if I wanted a value-priced whey, as they have the added benefit of Aminogen. ATW doesn't have this, and trust me...you'll notice the difference. A very good, affordable whey protein!! By: BrandonReview posted on: Mon Dec 28 10:36:08 -0500 2009 I used to use Optimum Nutrition Whey Gold Standard, and even before when it was called Optimum 100% whey protein, and I thought that was as good as it got in terms of taste and mixability for a decent price. I was so wrong! Every since I tried ATW Cinnamon Bun, I've never went anywhere else for protein. At 30$ for 80 servings, that is less than $0.50 per single serving shake, and a single serving with milk fills me up!!! Also, the taste is incredible, and I find that both the Isolate and the Blend mix very well, and taste pretty similar. The isolate is a little better for your digestive system and is absorbed a little faster in your system, but they are both great choices! I am extremely satisfied with this protein, and trust me, I've tried them all. Everything from BSN, Gaspari, Optimum, Scivation, Dymatize, Cytosport (Muscle Milk), you name it, I've used it, and I'm sticking with the All The Whey. You simply can not beat it. Best Protein, Dollar for Dollar By: JeffReview posted on: Mon Aug 31 18:45:13 -0400 2009 This is a basic, no-frills protein. No CLA, no digestive enzymes, no fiber, etc. BUT, it definitely does the job, and tastes great to boot. I've tried both the Cup Cake Batter and the Chocolate PB, and have really enjoyed both of them. The CCB was a little clumpy, but the Choc PB mixed really well. Taste was outstanding, but I said that already. For the price, you can't find better. This is now a staple on my supplement shelf, and I'm looking forward to trying other flavors. Okay price. Acceptable flavor. By: AlexReview posted on: Sun Aug 16 11:42:21 -0400 2009 I read a lot of rave reviews about the cinnamon bun flavor and decided to try it, despite the increasingly negative feedback closer to the top. I would tend to agree more with the recent reviewers that the taste is only so-so. Kinda like drinking the milk after eating a bowl of cinnamon toast crunch. There was a slightly chemical aftertaste to the product but I didn't think it was as bad as a previous reviewer (different lots perhaps). For me the biggest issue is clumping and settling--even thirty seconds in my magic bullet blender could not eliminate the clumping and large chunks (5-10mm) would form and settle at the bottom of my cup. I tried everything from my magic bullet, to my blender bottle shaker, to a regular shaker, to stirring, and nothing seems to do the trick. Great price for this product though. I'd still say the flavor is pretty good for a nutritional supplement. All in all not a bad choice if you don't mind chugging down soggy chunks of protein at the end of your shake (which may or may not happen in every batch). ~Alex C My favorite By: RichardReview posted on: Thu Jan 20 08:35:53 -0500 2011 I bought this stuff for years up until recently. I looked elsewhere when buying from the manufacturer became to expensive. Nutraplanet usually doesn't have it in stock though. Of all the proteins I have tried this is my favorite. Sadly, at the time of this writing it is out of stock again. Love this stuff and can't wait for it to be in stock again. Great Protein!! By: JeremyReview posted on: Sat Jan 30 11:41:05 -0500 2010 It mixes really well and taste is not too bad. The flavor just does not pack much punch, but it is nowhere close to bad, just not a strong flavor. If you like to mix you protein with anything other than water then this is a great choice. However, I just use water and it works well for me. I would buy this protein just for the ease of spoon mixing, and not having to wash a shaker every time I want some protein. Vanilla Ice Cream sandwich = delicious By: BrianReview posted on: Mon Jan 25 09:25:08 -0500 2010 Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich flavor might be my favorite ATW Protein Blend yet. Highly recommended, I will be buying this frequently from now on and recommending it to my friends. I mix with 6 oz of ice cold water and it's got great mixability and taste, and I'm sure it's even better when mixed with milk (as all ATW flavors usually are). Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup was my previous favorite flavor of ATW blend, but I think Vanilla Ice Cream Sandwich has it beat. Also great (in order of greatness): Choc PB Cup, Cinnamon Bun, Banana, Cupcake Batter Decent Protein but Very Bad Mixability By: LorenzoReview posted on: Thu Dec 31 22:53:39 -0500 2009 I bought 3 tubs of this in different flavors and the price is great but the mix ability is very bad. I always had chunks clumped up in my cup and since it was 15lbs of proteib I had to deal with it for a while but you get what you pay for. The taste is ok on most flavors but the cinnabun is good. For some reason the site wont let me change the star rating but ill leave it like that. I give this product 3 stars. So... By: MichaelReview posted on: Wed Dec 09 23:33:33 -0500 2009 Getting 5lbs of whey for $30, I don't care if it tastes like tire rubber. This stuff is a staple. Works as good as any whey I've used and for the price, you really can't beat it. Moral of the story is, you can spend $60 on Muscle Milk if you really need the taste that bad, or pay half the price for something that works just as well. And honestly, compared to some supplements, this stuff doesn't taste bad at all. Cinnamon bun sucks! By: TylerReview posted on: Mon Nov 16 03:43:33 -0500 2009 I have bought 10 of these for myself and another 10 or 15 for my friends here in Taiwan (thanks for the awesome customer service and fast shipping, Nutraplanet!). I think the flavors generally vary between very good and good (most need to be a bit sweeter in my opinion, but still good). My last order I tried the cupcake batter and cinnamon bun. Cupcake batter mixed 50/50 with chocolate is my favorite protein flavor ever (it sweetens up the chocolate and really does have a cake batter quality), but WOW the cinnamon bun flavor is disgusting. I am not sure if my batch was messed up, but it tastes like there is literally almost no sweetener in it at all (or maybe literally no sweetener). I tried it in a shake and in oatmeal. I threw the shake away (it was like drinking a glass of milk with an excessive amount of cinnamon dumped into it). I tried to power through the oats but couldn't do it. I finally realized that the only way to make this edible is to cut it 50/50 with cupcake batter (CCB is very sweet so it helps make the cinnamon bun edible). I contacted all the whey about this, asking if there was a problem with this batch. All they said was that most of their business comes from private companies so they can't change their flavors. I guess that means that the cinnamon bun tastes like this on purpose, which is astounding to me. I asked them to send a replacement flavor for the cinnamon bun and haven't recieved a reply. I think it might be time to find a replacement brand... I know what you mean.. By: ConnorReview posted on: Sat Nov 14 22:45:42 -0500 2009 I know what you mean guys, I just tried the peanut butter and its terrible, seems like each time i have some it gets worse. On a better note, Strawberry with milk is phenominal Expressed by quality and cost By: MattReview posted on: Fri Nov 13 08:06:45 -0500 2009 Bought this during the last sale and was stuck with cinnamon bun flavor b/c all others were sold out. Mixing - 9 out of a 10 - mixes fairly easy no clumps Taste - 9 out of a 10 - didnt know what to expect - slight cinnamon taste - not overwhelming - to me its perfect. Will definitely buy again due to pricing and product taste. Do NOT get the Cup Cake Batter. By: ChrisReview posted on: Fri Nov 06 08:33:41 -0500 2009 Again, Do NOT get the cup cake batter... its ****ing terrible and i'm paying for it right now. The Banana wasn't too bad at first but then it gets too annoying after a while. Next I want to try the Wild Berry flavor. maybe i'll have better luck with that Decent for the price By: SeanReview posted on: Mon Nov 02 14:09:07 -0500 2009 When I first tried this protein, the flavors were amazing, especially cup cake batter. I couldn't go wrong. I am sure that they changed the flavors though, because for the last 6 months they have all tasted like varying flavors of wet dog. But this is the cheapest protein I can find so I will keep buying it till the economy gets better. pb soon to be a standard By: amosReview posted on: Sat Oct 24 14:28:32 -0400 2009 well im not the fondest of all the way flavoring systems, but peanut butter is a real winner. i would venture that all the other major manufacturers will soon copy this flavor. you guys are right. used to be good. By: davidReview posted on: Thu Oct 22 03:04:54 -0400 2009 When i first bought this a couple months ago it was awesome. Now it comes in a pouch and tastes very bland. The flavor isnt there anymore. It now tastes like plastic. The whole batch smells different too, and trust me i can smell things a bit too well for a guy. If i recall the old one used to be 25g per serving, now its 20g. I'm really disappointed because i loved how this tasted :(. All the Whey - Vanilla By: AlanReview posted on: Tue Oct 20 11:01:43 -0400 2009 I have been using this brand of whey for at least six months and this current batch is horrible. I have never tasted such awful tasting whey protein. It tastes like bleach. I noticed an odd smell when I opened the container. It really is undrinkable. All the other containers have been really delicious. the flavor gets worse every time I order By: dustinReview posted on: Sat Oct 10 12:04:36 -0400 2009 I have been using this protein for about 10 months and the first time I tried the choc PB it was the best tasting protein I've ever had and when NP had a sale on it I bought 50 lbs and loved it but the last two times I order it has gotten worse and the latest batch I got today is almost undrinkable very disappointing since I really like the flavor but Im afraid to order again for fear of wasting my money on something that taste like crap The best there is By: AdamReview posted on: Sat Sep 26 15:36:41 -0400 2009 Have not tried a flavor I did not like. My least favorite was chocolate caramel and even that was good. The blend is the best financial value, even though the isolate is relatively inexpensive. CPBC is outstanding, as is wild berry Inconsistency By: DanReview posted on: Thu Aug 06 13:34:56 -0400 2009 I have gone through 5 of these tubs (Choc Peanut butter, Van ice cream, cinnamon bun, cup cake batter and chocolate carmel) and I have noticed that the texture has fluctuated wildly along with mixability. Does anyone have any idea if they are adding a lot more fillers or something to keep the cost down? I noticed that when rinsing my shaker out with water it took 4-5 times to have it look clear.... Just my thoughts, and curious if anyone has an answer. Price is great though. Bad flavor By: SnirReview posted on: Tue Aug 04 06:00:55 -0400 2009 I ordered 3 5lbs jars of the caramel candy bar, the flavor is awful, too much cocoa. this taste isn't remind any caramel flavor. I also ordered the vanilla sandwich ice cream, the flavor is very good, I like that. Was there a change in source? By: ToddReview posted on: Thu Jul 09 10:23:36 -0400 2009 I purchased my first bag of Cinn Bun on 4/9, best stuff ever. I purchased my second bag about a month later. The second bag has a different taste, gritty texture, and worst of all it leave a funny plastic taste in your mouth. I'm actually afraid to consume it due to the aftertaste, what a waste. ATW is a great deal By: carlReview posted on: Mon Jul 06 01:35:16 -0400 2009 I bought ATW because it was cheap, i couldn't believe the taste at the beggining. I kept hearing about ON being so amazing so when I ran out of ATW I bought some. Not even close, ATW wins in both price and taste. I recommend this protein to anyone that asks CPBC By: benReview posted on: Sun Jun 28 14:15:39 -0400 2009 Got the Chocolate peanut butter cup and it is EXACTLY like drinking the milk left over from a bowl of reeses puffs (complete with small chunks floating in it). If you like that then you'll like this. I have ordered the Cinnebun (which I hope will be awesome like everyone says) and the cupcake batter. Hope they are better than this one. Has anyone tried the Strawberry, wildberry, or vanilla ice cream sandwich? They sound good, but I'd like to see some reviews before I get a whole tub. Pretty Good Stuff By: SteveReview posted on: Tue Jun 09 20:08:08 -0400 2009 The PB Chocolate doesn't tast good at all. The Cinamon bun is really really good. So is the Orange, except the Orange gives you some really cool FARTS!. Honest Review By: shadeReview posted on: Thu May 21 14:17:14 -0400 2009 If you grind up only ice in the blender...about a half a cup...and then add one heaping scoop of cup cake batter...then add a small amount of milk...each person will like their own amount....i like about an inch height in a normal glass.....then blend....it comes out thick and creamy......and to me HANDS DOWN better than the cinnabun.....cinnabun is pretty good but my vote for best shake is the Cup Cake Batter...only 2 i tried....but i will make sure to never run out of the cup cake batter and rotate the second tub for other flavors......i wont buy the cinnabun again.....it does mix better in water with just a shaker...but why drink that when you can blend an awesome tasting shake with this powder....dont be lazy and make yourself a tasty shake. Great protein for starters By: DonReview posted on: Mon May 18 01:12:37 -0400 2009 This is the first protein I have bought and so far, it's pretty good. Cinnamon bun + water = taste good. Cinnamon bun + milk = REALLY good. I recommend it to those who are new to whey protein or those who are experienced with protein Pretty good stuff for pretty cheap By: MichaelReview posted on: Sat May 16 20:30:24 -0400 2009 This will actually probably become my staple protein. its a bit low in flavoring for water, but I think it lends to being tolerable by everyone. Great price, pretty good profile, good taste. Definitely recommended if its found at a good price. 5 stars Tastes great! By: KelvinReview posted on: Wed May 13 19:55:01 -0400 2009 The chocolate flavor is one of the best I've ever had. It's waaaaaay better than eas and edges out dymatize and ON in my opinion. It's creamy, tasty, and actually makes me want another one! When the h*ll has that ever happened? great price and great profile By: DanielReview posted on: Sun May 03 18:03:33 -0400 2009 can't beat the price and profile of ATW. the texture is nice and creamy also, but the taste is extremely weak IMO. good overall protein and i'd buy it again Cheap Product By: AntonioReview posted on: Tue Apr 28 23:24:25 -0400 2009 I read some reviews that Cin bun was the greatest flavour ever, thats bs, strong and artificial, but the price has no match. I guess If you mix with good aminoacids and vitamins is the best buy you can do, because it still has 22 gr of protein per scoup. Almost forgot, mixes well, not great, but well... Just Wow. By: BradenReview posted on: Tue Apr 21 08:52:24 -0400 2009 At the price and with the high protein to calorie ratio I was ready to choke this down no matter how bad tasting and chunky. Then it mixed perfectly and tasted suprisingly good. Not muscle milk good, but good nonetheless. I got the Cinnamon Bun. Well worth trying. Quality at a affordable price By: TimReview posted on: Wed Apr 01 21:04:01 -0400 2009 I been using this protien for a about a year and half now and love it. I use to order directly from ATW, but their was way too many issues with slow shipping. Not only that but its actually cheaper ordering from NP vs ATW. I can complain. Great job to both company for giving us a quality protein at a very good price. Choose another flavor. By: JosephReview posted on: Sat Mar 21 11:29:52 -0400 2009 I would not reccomend anyone buy Cup Cake Batter. It does not taste good and the mixability of it is terrible. even in water i still get big chunks of protein stuck to the sides of my shaker. I have bought the cinnamon bun tho and it mixes very well. No problems there. Just stay away from the cupcake batter. Good protein but .... By: HayssamReview posted on: Fri Mar 20 11:08:43 -0400 2009 Cup cake tastes good, but mixes terribly. Cin bun is not that great like everyone says or maybe i'm not a CB fan but it mixes better than the cup cake for some reason, in any way this protein is good and the low price is amazing. Best tasteing protein I have ever tried By: kennyReview posted on: Wed Mar 18 21:37:03 -0400 2009 Im getting ready to order more Cinnamon Bun and try the Cup Cake. This is really the best protein I have ever had. The price is pretty good and the company has great customer service too! Taste good, breaks down, but OMG the gas By: JesseReview posted on: Mon Mar 16 16:16:35 -0400 2009 I got the orange actually and it tastes fine. I haven't been so gassy is a while though. Not sure why but something in it won't agree with my stomach. Only gas related though. Good Stuff By: AdamReview posted on: Tue Mar 10 19:25:00 -0400 2009 This is a great product. Not only is this one of the better tasting protein powders that I have used, but it is a real value. I could not be more pleased with All the Whey, and I will be a loyal customer for as long as they continue to produce a good product at a great price. SD Hyped. By: SamReview posted on: Wed Mar 04 12:59:12 -0500 2009 It was a nice deal for 5LB of protien. Smells good and tastes ok. Nothing special though. 3/5 stars. Mix. could be better. I got the Cinn Bun. I tried with water and lowfat milk. Not much of a difference in mix. Great Tasting Cinnamon Bun By: NickReview posted on: Mon Mar 02 01:51:48 -0500 2009 Wow cinnamon bun tastes awesome, I think its on par with muscle milk which is another great tasting brand, but this cinnamon bun is the only whey thats been that close to tasting good. It tastes like real cinnamon, I prefer it with milk. Makes me eager to try the other flavors Wow! By: IvoReview posted on: Wed Feb 25 12:32:40 -0500 2009 The Cinnamon Bun has to be by far, the best tasting protein powder I've ever tried and I've tried over a dozen. To me it has the consistency (a bit thicker than most whey powders) and taste of a meal replacement powder but without the calories so it's great for cutting. High quality and mixes very easy. Get a Blender Bottle too if you don't already have one. They're awesome. Also, props to Nutraplanet for their excellent customer service. Will be ordering here from now on. Best Flavor By: JasonReview posted on: Fri Feb 13 01:56:29 -0500 2009 So you are looking for the best flavor...? The answer is...Cinnamon Bun HANDS DOWN! I've tried them all and none come close. You will not find a better deal anywhere for some good quality whey protein Cinnabun is awesome! By: SteveReview posted on: Sat Feb 07 20:36:21 -0500 2009 You can check out the AM subforum http://anabolicminds.com/forum/all-whey/ for more discussions, but everybody I know that has tried Cinnamon Bun Loves it. It goes perfect with oats, and also goes great in shakes. I've gone through several 5lbers, and now have many of my friends addicted to this flavour too! Cupcake batter is pretty good as well, and the vanilla and chocolate don't disappoint. Great value! |
