Tried muscle milk pre-mixed /carb control...

[heatherrae]

and it was SO NASTY. I had heard for years that muscle milk was the best tasting shake out there. I had really wanted to try it, but they were just too many cals for what I needed. So, I saw the carb control and got excited and bought a pack of 4.

It tasted like 50% chocolate syrup mixed with 50% vegetable oil. There was a nasty chemical aftertaste, as well. I couldn't even choke down half of one of these. I, literally, was gagging.

BOOOOOOO Muscle Milk

 

[heatherrae]

Nobody else thinks it tastes like choco-butt?

muscle milk tastes like a drink from heaven. carb control probablydoes taste like crap. its all the fat n carbs that made it taste so good. try bannana

Frackel told me years ago that muscle milk was garbage.
.
HAHAHA

I asked him about it and he said, "sure if you want to get fat buy some muscle milk" (it's weird to remember obscure stuff).

I like Protien Factory (make your own combo) and VPX zero carb

 

[pappad]

The ready to frink is not very good! The regular powder ROCKS!!!

 

[needtogetarmy]

Musclemix is so-so.

I found a place that has EAS RTD protein shakes. 200 cals, 25g protein and 5g carbs and I get cases of $24 for $20 which is cheap. EAS is very tasty too.

The carb control had tons of fat, actually more than I wanted. EAS lite has far fewer carbs and fat grams and tastes WAY better.

Maybe the regular muscle milk tastes good, but you just have to take a sip of the carb control. I couldn't even believe they put this out on the market. I would think the taste testers would have thrown up on the table. lol.

It was a whole new level of nastiness. I couldn't even choke it down while holding my nose. I would rather just down raw egg whites.

Yeah, that is what I usually buy EAS-lite ready to drink. It is YUMMY!

yeah i probably will never try it now. but i even liked the powder, it taste much better than any of the rtd. i did like myoplex rtd.

RTDs always suck. when people say Musclemilk tastes good, they're referring to the powder.

RTDs are a waste of money unless you are REALLY in a bind. good to have a few in the office though

They are convenient for me. With the little one, I don't have much time to be mixing shakes, cooking, etc. I try to cook in big batches and eat RTD shakes and protein bars when I can.

 

[gjohnson5]

I've always said Muscle Milk is high in other ingredients besides protein. if you'll spend the $$$ on Muscle Milk, try VPX Zero Carb

 

[xrsist]

i think they changed their formula recently..

Take that back. MM is the best I ever had. It's not exactly cutting material when it comes to protien. Try the new strawberry shake flavor...is the BOMB!

 

[bigmann245]

muscle milk is exactly what it says....muscle...... its going to have more cals than other protein shakes due to your trying to add cals to build muscle. i never heard of carb control MM but ill never use it. but the reg MM is outstanding...

Yeah, I'm not bemoaning the nutritional content. I'm just saying the chocolate carb control ready to drink tastes like the south bound end of a north bound skunk. =-)

 

[javaguru]

1/3 cup milk protein isolate, 1 cup frozen broccoli, 1 cup frozen spinach, blend and drink.

 

[lartinos]

I bought that shit just cuz it was on sale, You get what you pay for!
I love the original...

 

[SaladFork]

Muscle Milk taste good, but it's the McDonalds of protien shakes... It's garbage.
Get some ON Gold Standard (Vanilla Milkshake). Trust me...

[SaladFork]

What carbs?

I carry shakes with me... The blender bottles are awesome, all you need is some water.

Hot damn I better buy a case, I wonder if Wulfgar wants to go halfsies, I'm kinda broke.
