Dymatize ISO100 Whey Protein Powder Isolate, Gourmet Chocolate, 25g of Protein, 20 Servings, 5.5g BCAAs, Less Than 120 Cal., Gluten Free, 1g Fat, 1g Sugar, 2g Carb

Decadent Delight for Fitness Enthusiasts
Wow, this protein powder is like a guilt-free dessert in a scoop! Each serving packs 25 grams of high-quality protein from 100% hydrolyzed whey isolate, making post-workout recovery feel like a treat. The fudge brownie flavor is so rich and chocolaty that I half-expected to find a “do not eat raw” warning.Mixing it is a breeze; even with just a spoon, it blends smoothly without those pesky clumps. Plus, with less than 1 gram of sugar and fat per serving, it fits perfectly into my nutrition plan.However, the container is about as deceptive as my gym selfies—it looks huge but isn’t filled to the brim. A bit of a letdown when you’re expecting more bang for your buck.Overall, this protein powder is a delicious and effective addition to any fitness regimen. Just don’t let the container size fool you!

I’ve had 9 flavors, here are my thoughts
Dymatize ISO100 has hands down become my go-to protein powder. I have now tried 9 flavors, they are (in no particular order):- Chocolate Caramel- Chocolate Peanut Butter- Cinnamon Bun- Cocoa Pebbles- Cookie and Cream- Fudge Brownie- Gourmet Chocolate- Gourmet Vanilla- StrawberryThere are really four main factors that matter to me in a protein powder; How well does it mix, What’s actually in it, how much does it cost, and the most important factor of all, taste.1) How well does it mix:It mixes great, zero complaints on this front. It borderline mixes too well. I typically have my protein in one of two ways; a shaker bottle with a metal shaker, mixed with water or milk, or a protein shake/smoothie mixed in a ninja blender. In both situations, I have zero issues with the mix. Never comes out clumpy or lumpy. Some of the flavors mix so well they come out very foamy (more so than other powders) and I actually have to wait a bit so I’m not just drinking bubbles.2) What’s in it?:I am not a supplement expert, but Dymatize’s ISO100 has significantly less cholesterol than a lot of competitors, and that’s good enough for me. This factor matters the least to me, I don’t look too much into ingredient labels, but heart disease does run in my family, so avoiding unnecessary cholesterol, which is common in a lot of powders, is a big plus.3) Cost:I think the price is exceptional for the product. Sometimes there will be great deals here on Amazon for specific flavors. I will get to it in the next section, but even though I do not think Dymatize has the hands-down best flavors, for the cost I couldn’t be happier.4) Taste:THE BIG ONE!!! Gourmet Chocolate is without question my absolute favorite chocolate flavored protein powder. Totally subjective obviously, but I don’t think anything else even really comes close, and I’ve tried a pretty extensive selection of chocolates. For a reference point that a lot of people can relate to, I do not like Optimum Nutrition’s chocolate at all, I think it’s pretty disgusting.I am giving an overall rating of 4 stars because aside from gourmet chocolate and cookies and cream, I do not think any of the other flavors I’ve tried are out of this world. Look above for the list of all the chocolate variants I’ve had. I won’t bother buying any of them again, because the gourmet chocolate is just plain better than all of the others. The flavor difference is minimal enough that I don’t care for them to add variety, but big enough that I see no reason to waiver from the king.Chocoloate Peanut Butter is an outlier on the chocolates, It’s really good too, BUT when I want a chocolate peanut butter flavor, I think it tastes way better to just use gourmet chocolate, and then add a tablespoon or two of peanut butter powder, like PB Fit. It’s a small amount more calories for a lot more protein and a much less artificial flavor.Cookies and Cream is my second favorite. It’s also super delicious. Now that I’ve experimented with most of the flavors, I will probably just be buying cookies and cream and gourmet chocolate, so that I don’t get bored of one.Gourmet vanilla and cinnamon bun are fine. If you really like those flavors I have no complaints.Strawberry I could not get to taste good in a smoothie. Just wouldn’t sit right with me. Mixed with just almond milk it’s pretty yummy though. I got pretty tired of this flavor pretty fast and will likely not buy it again. I’m generally not crazy about fruit flavored protein powders though.So, I didn’t give 5 stars because not every flavor is my favorite. What is you might ask? I really love Ghost Protein. I think they have the best flavors if you want 3 or more choices. Their coffee flavor is my favorite protein of all time. BUT, Ghost is a lot more expensive. The ISO100 makes me a lot happier when I remember I’m spending quite a bit less per scoop (I usually buy the 3 lb tubs of ISO100, which is obviously cheaper per oz). It just comes down to price to performance, and right now ISO100 wins it for me. I still buy Ghost from time to time because I like it so much.Just for funsies here is my fairly generic protein smoothie I have almost every morning for my breakfast.1 scoop of either Gourmet Chocolate -or- Cookies and Cream ISO100.3/4 cup milk2 tablespoons peanut butter powder (I like PB Fit)1 whole frozen banana1/4-1/2 cup frozen black coffee ice cubes (you can of course just use regular ice cubes)About 35-40g of protein for a 350-400 calorie smoothie that tastes BANGIN.If you try it out, blend the milk, PB powder, and protein together first. Then add the coffee ice cubes and blend for 30 seconds to a minute. Then add the banana and blend to desired thickness, another 30 seconds – 1 minute. If you try to do it all at once, there are too many cold ingredients and the protein and PB powder won’t blend as well as it normally would otherwise.OBLIGATORY FINAL SENTENCE IN ALL CAPS ABOUT GETTING THEM GAINZZZ.

Tasted like a spoilt brownie, which I could endure, if not for its overpowering sweetness. Disappointment because the chocolate peanut butter flavor was decent.However, despite the awful taste, it didn’t make me want to puke, which is what most protein shakes do to me.

Good

A little overpriced but the taste is good.
