Same as a couple of the comments above.
The icecream sandwich flavour I ordered recently is completely different from what I had previously (about 2-3 months ago).

As soon as I opened the container, I immediately noticed the colour was different. Definitely didn’t taste like the icecream sandwich I came to know and love…almost a bit more artificial-tasting. But like the comment above, DEFINITELY grittier than previous versions…and when you close your teeth, you can feel a film between your teeth.

The only pro I’ve noticed is that it mixes very well with water even at 250ml. Maintains a very nice creamy consistency like a shake should and it doesn’t taste like it’s mixed with water (I normally use milk). However, I feel a lot has been sacrificed for the sake of consistency.

Like many recent MGN customers, I will also be hesitant to use their product again after I finish this.

I ordered MGN Pure Whey Protein Isolate – 25lbs Banana two months ago. I use proteins all the time and never had digestive problems. This one causes gas .. I hope label nutrition facts are true ,but I would not recommend this protein and will not buy it again …

I have bought this product several time in the past and it was great! I recently purchased an additional 15 pounds of MGN Whey isolate and they have completely changed the product. It taste like poop now. The label is still the same and so are the nutritional facts, which makes me wonder if they are even true. I am very shocked that they would just do a switch of the contents in the container, but keep the container the same and nutrition facts, just to mislead the customer.
Never ordering from them again!

I had ordered this protein in chocolate, cinnamon bun, ice cream sandwich, and cake batter in 2 and 5 pound sizes throughout 2009 and into 2010. In mid 2010 when I reordered 10 lbs of Chocolate for a ladyfriend and myself and the texture, flavor, label and container all were different from the previous orders I had gotten. The taste was no longer pleasing, and it was gritty and like drinking sand. The change in quality leads me to question whether the nutritional value is the same. I am not pleased and am changing proteins.

Overall, a great protein for anyone on a budget! I am a serious bodybuilder and I am EXTREMELY SKEPTICAL about trying new products. Having used ON’s 100% Gold Standard Whey for years, I was afraid to switch but I’m glad I did. This is great protein and the price can’t be beat! Anything pure Isolate is the way to go. Let’s hope Muscle Gauge keeps the price this low forever!

I’ve had protein in my diet over the last 5+ years and have tried several with good results. This does the job at a considerable savings on average. I enjoy the Ice cream sandwich flavor.

This has become my protein of choice. I was an ON loyalist but decided to switch it up when I saw the price point on this product. I was skeptical but am glad I tried it. I’ve gone through 20 lbs so far and have not grown tired of the Cake Batter flavor. Mixes well with both a standard shaker and the blender ball shaker. I typically use 12oz of water with two scoops and have never had a problem with the mix. One scoop of cake batter, 1/2 cup of trim cottage cheese, and 3/4 cup of blue berries is the perfect dessert.

Great value with 80 servings and good price. Tastes good and has a great profile with a high count of protein for the number of calories. Great for calorie and carb conscious individual. Also has a solid ammino acid profile. Looking forward to trying other flavors
