2 stars because it's name is accurate - (keep reading), one because its that bad
If you want wasted calories, less quality ingredients than a wally world protein special, a dozen extra supplemental ingredients that are in any good pre-workout you should already be taking, and less whey isolate for more money, buy this protein. Creatine blends with milk like sand blends with water, and this junk tastes like sand impregnated it with more sand. It's first listed "other ingredient" is casein protein, you know, 80% of what the protein in milk is, also known as cheap- its second listed ingredient is whey protein concentrate, again, known as the cheapest whey you can buy after a gallon of milk. 50 grams of mostly slow digesting casein protein in a 75 gram scoop for $31+ for 33oz is an atrocity against all semi-intelligent gym people. The only reason this has less calories than milk is because it has enough sucralose and stevia to taste like diet coke boiled down into tar with added banana. You are not getting more for less- if you bought optimum nutrition gold/platinum and mixed HALF AS MUCH with skim milk you would be better off and could spend the rest of your money on pre-workout that you probably overdose on already with the rest of these magical ingredients. The only thing about this that made me give it two stars is the fact that the label is honest- it will make you put on monster weight, and it's pretty much as close to milk in protein composition as you can get in a name brand protein. I gave this to one of my less than rich lifting friends and he stopped taking a FREE PROTEIN after gaining almost 2 inches- around his waist (and he is 175 lb, 9% body fat meathead)

Simply The best
This is simply the best protein powder out there.It has large amounts of Leucine isoleucine and valine, its nice to see these in this large of an amount.Oh and its super super lean.Vanilla creme tastes like vanilla ice cream, i love it, but i cant get my girl to agree with me.Will be buying more from amazon to save some cash. And definitely will buy monster milk.

Cookies and Cream is awesome.
So far I've tried cookies and cream and peanut butter chocolate. Cookies and cream is great, peanut butter chocolate should be avoided. After I finish what's left of peanut butter chocolate, I'm definitely switching back. I've heard good things about the vanilla cream. Ignoring taste though, this is a really great protein powder and I highly recommend it. You probably don't need to take as much as they recommend you take though. I usually just do 2 scoops a day.

I have tasted some bad protein in my days
Man, I have tasted some bad protein in my days, but this stuff just tasted horrible. It is bad when you can not even give powder away. Stick with what you know and have tasted in the past.

Poor taste for strawberry flavor
I've had muscle milk strawberry flavor before so that's what I was expecting. That was not the case. This stuff is vile, terrible taste and aftertaste.

Good Results, Taste is so-so
If you're straight up looking for postworkout (like me) then this will do the job. HOWEVER if you're going to use this as a meal replacement here's my advice1) FOR THE LUVOFGOD DO NOT DRINK IT BY ITSELF. It's taste isn't bad, but I can't say it's too good either2) Add your fav snacks. Personally i throw in peanut butter and a banana and I'm set!!Hope this helps

Too sweet, but mixes well
So far, it tastes a bit too sweet. It mixes very well, but does have a high sugar content. I'll update this review if it helps me achieve my muscle gaining goals.

Terrible taste
The taste is awful. I only tried it for a month. Not sure how good it is. I gained 8lbs in that month, but my body fat went up like 3 percent. So I gained maybe 2lbs muscle and 6lbs of fat. Not what I'm looking for!

At last a palatable protein powder
I have tried at least five or six, including the main UK leaders. I am not a body builder, I am just looking for ways to boost my protein intake when I have cereals or oats which are very heavy in carbohydrates (even the non sugared versions). When supplemented (in moderation) with protein they keep you full for much longer. All my previous purchases ended up in the bin as the protein powder either tasted vile or gave the cereal a gummy, slimy, very unpleasant texture. But Monster Milk is all right. I wouldn't say that it's gastronomical but experience has taught me that 'all right' is about the best that one can get in the world of protein powders. The taste is very vanilla-ey and it is a little sweet but the texture is good and most importantly it does not leave the horrible metallic aftertaste that other protein powders do. It seems to be very digestible. When combined with milk in the cereal or oats it is very edible. It is a little less high in protein than other brands (64g per 100g) but that's fine as the carb count is very low. I'd rather add a little more of a good product than less of a horrible one!PS: I haven't tried the other products in the CytoSport range but I noted that their Muscle Milk Light, which I originally thought of buying, is very high in carbs (as 'light' products often are), which really defeats the purpose of protein supplementation.

Nice taste, But..
I've been using protein supplements everyday since I first started training back in 1988.. Monster Milk is the only supplement I've used that's left me feeling badly bloated.. I now use a High quality whey Isolate and the bloating has gone..

Zu teuer, viel zu süß, aber trotzdem tolles supplement
Monster Milk schmeckt extrem süß, sodass man die Geschmacksrichtungen kaum noch erkennt. Vom Preis her ist Monster Milk wirklich happig, da die Packung nach 10-12 Shakes leer ist. Dennoch wirkt es dank Glutamin und Kreatin Monohydrat recht ordentlich und man spart sich den Aufwand weitere Supplements zu sich nehmen zu müssen.
