NOW Whey Protein Isolate Review – Vanilla

It’s our first PricePlow Disapproved Product review!!

In this video, I review NOW Foods Whey Protein Isolate, specifically the awful “natural” vanilla flavor.

We have some funny moments in this video, but here’s the synopsis:

NOW Whey Protein Isolate Review

NOW Whey Protein Isolate Review

  • I love NOW / NOW Foods / NOW Sports for nearly everything. This is an AWESOME value brand that does practically no advertising. They go hand in hand with the PricePlow MO.
  • Simply put, it tastes awful. This is the worst vanilla I have ever had.
  • Part of that reason is because they used straight fructose as half of the flavor system. You might call that “natural”, but I call it disgusting and unnecessary carbs for an isolate.
  • And finally, WTF is that scooper?! It’s an awkward mess!

If you still want to get a hold of this, head over to https://www.priceplow.com/now-foods/whey-protein-isolate and compare deals.

Otherwise, take pretty much anything else from our Whey Protein Isolate section. I like Cellucor Super Sport for taste and Muscle Gauge or IsoFUEL for value.

NOW is just in no man’s land, with less taste and less value.

How about this – I’ll stop wearing Browns shirts during negative reviews when they post a winning season record, or when people stop making disgusting proteins with alien scoopers. The idea was given to me by my girlfriend, who happens to be a Broncos fan. Figures.

Update: Oh, and here is the video on why you should beware straight fructose (yea, the 2.5g/scoop in this isn’t going to kill you, but it’s a good FYI). It’s long and awesome.
