Dymatize Elite Whey Butter Cream Toffee review

[crazyfacials]

So I am finally finished with this tub...and let me tell you brothers and sisters am I glad that I am!

Smell 4.5/5

Smells soooooooooo good, sometimes I just want to shove half of my face in the tub and inhale the goodness over and over again but I don't because my pets might think I am a strange person.

Price 4/5

It's a cheap(ish) protein, esp from the states...but I got mine from NZ still at a good price...can't complain much (well for a 5Lb flavoured tub it's cheap!)

Profile 3/5 good, but unlike other proteins this stuff is so light then the slightestwh breeze will cause a cloud of protein to be scattered everywhere

Mix-ability 2/5

forget using a normal shaker, and if you have a blender shaker then you can forget about that too unless you're the 3 time world wanking champion who has amazing wrist flicking speed...this will clumb no matter what, your only answers are a blenders or amazing/magic bullets

Taste 2/5

You know how back in the days in western movies when the dude would take a swig of whisky from his hip flask and then make a fucked up face like someone just branded him on the ass with some real hot iron? yeah I do that face everytime I have to chug a bit of the protein, and yeah I liked to pretend that I was in a cowboy movie...hoping that escape from reality would deter my mind and body from knowing I am about to punish it again with another mouthful of this awful tasting stuff :S

Would I buy it again? I'd rather strip naked and bear hug a cactus than do so

Nice review, Crazy. Liked.

So what is it about this protein that tastes nasty? I'm surprised something that smells so good tastes so bad.

[Riccardo]

I've tried numerous dymatize elite powders as i got them cheap from a mate and I fully agree with you, worst tasting crap on the face of the earth..way too sweet, doesnt mix and made me vom a little everytime I had to drink it.

[crazyfacials]

Pretty much what Riccardo said, it's just way too sweet even with just water, then again some flavours are a hit or miss if they're not your standard strawberry/chocolate/vanilla

[drizzt]

Agree with you, CF :nod:

I had the stock standard strawberry Dymatize Elite last year, smelled delicious, but made me make the face you describe every time I had to drink it. Never again.

[Chillicat]

I like their Pina Colada flavour :nod:

[vracula]

their protein content isnt the greatest either

[Peachy]

I always buy vanilla coz Im too scared to buy anything else and then not like it. But butter cream toffee sounds sooo yumo!! Guts that its not actually that yum. Someone needs to make a one that tastes like peanut m&ms. mmmmmm.......

I'd rather strip naked and bear hug a cactus than do so

That sentence says more than the entire review :pfft: Good to know to steer clear though, Thanks.

I used to like this flavour, but after a big tub of it, I couldn't stand it anymore. It's just incredibly sweet really.

[cantygirl]

I had seen some protein powders with yummy flavours at Health 2000 in Northlands Mall but I think they discontinued it, might have been an Australian brand, cookies and cream, mint choc, toffee fudge, ooooh makes my mouth water.

Have to agree 100% - the Butter Cream Toffee is utter crap - i still have 1/2 a tub from a year ago
