 Great taste and mixes well, this protein is a Champion!Jun 10, 2007
By S. Cook
Protein is a Hugh factor after having Gastric Bypass Surgery. This has all the nutrition needed and has the BEST taste. My friends and I have tried them all, and this is the winner. They also have lots of great flavors. I give this a well needed Five Star rating, because good Protein is a big priority in my life and taste is important.

Great protein shake plus a couple suggestions for othersNov 27, 2010
By Mike Danseglio
"MikeDan"
I've been drinking the chocolate Pure Whey Stack for over four years now. Ever since I had a Lap Band installed it has been a daily part of my life. In fact my doctor made me buy a jar before I even went for the surgery so I'd have it at home during recovery. So I can speak with some confidence about this product.
First, it takes a little getting used to. I didn't like it the first time I tasted it, and most don't. But after a few tries I really started to enjoy it. The use of cold vs. warm water makes a big difference, not only in the texture but in the taste. It really tastes different, and in my opinion better, when cold. Others swear by it warm or even a little hot (don't add hot water, it destroys the protein).
The energy I get from it is fantastic. The chocolate also helps satisfy sweet cravings and keeps me feeling full. It really does work. And my doctor tells me (your mileage may vary) that I simply can't drink enough. If I'm hungry, no matter how many I've already had, have another one.
My job requires lots of travel. I usually just fill a ziploc bag with enough Pure Whey Stack powder to make 4-5 shakes a day during the trip. I also remember to put a spare measuring cup (kept from a previously emptied jar) in the bag as well as a battery hand mixer like BonJour Café Latte Frother, Battery Powered, White/ Gray. Get this one, not the one with the spring-like blade. It is weak. This one mixes shakes quite well and is fantastic for travel. Just remember to take the batteries out - from personal experience, a vibrating suitcase gets more snickers and sneers than you can imagine.
I tend to treat myself. I usually make this mix in a high-walled glass:
2 level scoops of chocolate Pure Whey Stack
1 packet of Splenda
1 teaspoon of chunky peanut or cashew butter
I mix that concoction up with my KitchenAid KHB100OB Hand Blender, Onyx Black and it takes about 8 seconds to mix thoroughly. It tastes like a peanut butter and chocolate milkshake. Plus the fat in nut butter supposedly helps with protein absorption. Its worth a couple of carbs and a little salt for the flavor and fullness.
Buy the 5 lb. jars - they're far more economical.

Best Tasting Protein Around by Far!!!!!!!!Mar 30, 2007
By Darlene Mcneely
I had Gastric Bypass surgery on Oct 06 so I've been through many protein drinks. This one is by far the best tasting I've had. Very smooth, mixes very easy and no after taste. You can't beat it...

 Only one complaintOct 24, 2010
By P. Smith
As a regular user of protein supplements, I have tried several and this product compares favorably to the best of them. This is my first time using Champion Pure Whey and the Vanilla is quite good tasting and mixes well in a blender, or blender bottle with very little after taste, even without adding any fruit, etc..
My only complaint is in the packaging. I wish they used the shrink wrap tamper proof lid seal in addition to the paper insert like most others do. That paper seal is rarely attached completely and tampering, or just contamination can occur without the additional safety seal. Just my nitpicking, but enough to make me consider another brand like Optimum Nutrition for example, that does have the additional seal.
As a followup on this date (9/30/11) after trying many other brands, I have come to realize that the vanilla flavor of this Champion protein is rather bland. Perhaps bland has too negative a connotation and neutral is a better way to describe it. This is by no means a bad thing, because unlike some other protein powders that are too sweet, this product allows you to add things such as different fruits to suit your own taste. By itself it is pretty plain, but that too is a refreshing change from some of the "cotton candy" proteins I have tried.

The Whey to GoJul 10, 2008
By A. S. Romain
"Love for All, Hatred for None"
When I first read the instructions, I read something about a scoop. I had no clue as to what the gram size was in a scoop so I hoped for the best when I opened it, hoping for a scoop. I opened it. There was no scoop. But then my brain started to churn and I figured that the scoop was in the center of the jar. Damn. I washed my arm like a doctor does and dried it. Then I shoved my hand down in that jar like an artificial cow inseminator. Lo and Behold, after some wriggling, I was triumphant with my scoop! Now I scoop that in my water, milk, or smoothie everyday and I see some good results! The taste, ah, well, do you really ever think vanilla protein will taste good?
