Met RX Protein & Oats - AMAZING TASTE
By ryman
I had a free sample of this protein from my gym and feel in love with the taste enough to buy the full size product. It has a cinnamon tase and a good consistency for mixing. I typically use a banana, ice and milk in a blender to give it a more milkshake like consistency. The calorie count is not that high considering how flavorful it really is.I would give it 5 stars if it were not for the odd requirement that you refridgerate the protein after its opened. I have never had any other protein powders with that type of instruction but otherwise its an excellent product, and priced low on Amazon.UPDATED: 5 STARS - Since it no longer needs to be refridgerated I increased it one star (now if only it was less expensive).

A decent protein powder if you can get over the oat clumps
By Scott
For the last several years, I've been using Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey and BSN Syntha-6 protein powders. I like the ON for the lower carbs, and the Syntha-6 for the taste. I decided to try the MET-RX when I was offered a free sample from Amazon. The first thing I noticed about it, is that it only takes up half of the standard 2lb container. By comparison, my Syntha-6 of the same container size, comes up to the top. This leads me to believe that the powder is not nearly as thick as some of the ones I've had in the past. I also saw that there were several oat flakes in the powder. I don't know if these are the only source of oats, but if they are, then they are not significant enough to have any nutritional effect, and are likely just for flavor, which I am okay with. When I actually mixed the powder with water, all of the heavier oat flakes sunk to the bottom and I could see them collecting at the bottom of my shaker bottle. I thought the shake would taste pretty bad because of that. Upon first taste, it wasn't as displeasing as I thought. I could definitely taste and feel the flakes while drinking it, but it wasn't an issue and even though I don't really like oats, the flavor works well with the chocolate. However the last few sips, I was basically drinking clumps of oats and struggling to get it down. Once I was done, I was left with a lot of oats stuck to the sides and bottom of my shaker bottle.As far as the actual protein and nutritional content, I really like that it only has 1g of sugar, and this is enough of a selling point to me to use it despite the weird taste. I've found you can overcome the problem of the oats clumping by either using a blender (which works a little bit), or just using a thickening agent like milk instead of water, and/or adding additional ingredients like a banana.

GREAT MEAL REPLACEMENT
By Troy A. Young
GREAT MEAL REPLACEMENT IF YOUR WORKING OUT OR NOT. THE PRODUCT TASTES GREAT AND IS EASY TO MIX I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYBODY WHO IS LOOKING TO CURB THAT APPETITE WHILE WORKING OUT AND GETTING THROUGH A BUSY DAY OR ON A OFF DAY WHILE WORKING OUT. I ACTUALLY WISH THERE WAS MORE IN THE TUB BUT OF COURSE IM TRAINING SO I GO THROUGH MORE OF IT FASTER THAN THE AVERAGE PERSON WORTH TRYING IT OUT THOUGH IF YOUR CONSIDERING .
