Dessert Protein - Holy Crap!!

So I've been reading posts about this 'Dessert Protein' and I'm all about trying it - I was wanting to find the banana nut bread. So i go to GNC yesterday and they only have the chocolate fudge and cinnamon roll one so I opt for the cinnamon roll. Now I have only heard great things about this product from you guys on here and one person even said they couldn't wait to get home to have another shake, so I'm thinking I can't go wrong with this one. We go up to pay for the container and the GNC worker tells us that this protein is disgusting and he would feel bad for selling it to me. He actually said that it was the 2nd worse tasting protein powder that they carried. Awful - that's another word he used. Of course I was freaked out and couldn't bring myself to buy it but now I'm so disappointed. We are all talking about the same product here right? It's in a short round red container and it says dessert on the front of it?

yes... it is freakinfantastic    IMO ...  I have tried ALOT of protein powders and products over the years and I am very happy with this brand...I have the cinnamon, banana nut and chocolate coconut...

I think you will like them alot...the good thing about GNC is they have a great return policy...I tried a huge container of a isopure powder and it was  ...they allowed me to return it and refunded my money.  Its a no brainer.

 I say go for it  :)

Just bought it yesterday and LOVE it.  Matter of fact had to shoo my husband and 6 year old daughter away - they loved it too!

I bought some and absolutely hated it! I can tolerate the Syntrax Nectar but bought the Banana Nut Bread Dessert protein after the rave reviews it got on here. I couldn't even finish my first serving. I mixed it with 10 oz of milk and it was so thick and disgusting. I'm not going to give up on it yet though. I'm going to try using less powder (or more milk) and throw it in the blender with ice and a banana.

I  have not tried it at  all...  BUT  Griffs is right...  GNC backs anything up  they will  take  anything back for a full refund...  I go to GNC  for my  protein bullets.... and had to return the BIG protein containers I  didnt care for... and isopure bottles  and had no problem at all... so I  say  go for it...  and   if you dont like it... return it....  they dont mind at  all....  ( I knew I had felt bad at  first)  BUT,  thats their policy...

I am in love, love, love!!!  I bought the banana cream pudding first, and it was AWESOME!  But then I bought the whipped vanilla, figured I could mix in some sf syrups and what not.  Well, I am addicted!  Every morning, and sometimes at night, I mix 1 scoop whipped vanilla, 8 oz ff milk, 1 tsp instant decaf coffee, 2 tsp davinci sf caramel syrup, and ice in blender.  Top off with Land O Lakes sf whipped topping, and I have died and gone to heaven.  Tastes like Starbucks, imho.

it is not bad tasting but it was too thick for me.  what is the secret to making it thinner.  i am a shake novice.

The thing to remember is that no ones taste buds are the same...What one might like, another person may not...Since they have a return policy, why not give it a try, you might just like it..The store here wouldnt take a few things back because I didn't have the receipt so might want to hold onto it a little while...Personally I got tired of spending money out on protein powders, drinks, bars, and etc only to find that I couldnt stomach them...I get all my protein from the foods I eat and do well with that...Good luck

I started off with samples from Vitalady of each flavor.  YUMMY!!!  I liked the cinnamon roll and banana cream pudding the best.  I couldn't decide between the two when I ordered (From Netririon.com).  I went with the Banana cream pudding and am enjoying it.  Next time I will do the cinammon roll!!!

Hi.  I have no specific experience with thsi protein, but thought I'd let you know that Vitamin Shoppe also sells the Dessert protein.  I generally find their prices to be MUCH better thanGNC--even with the GNC discout card.  Vitamin Shoope will also allow you to exchange protein if you do not like it for another flavor.
