Salted caramel for the win!
I have bought the Salted caramel flavour and wow it sure is tasty. Be warned though it is very sweet however it suits my taste buds fine. Jar is huge, powder is fine and not clumpy as some powders can be when in the jar. I use ice cold water as a mixer and the powder dissolves fantasticly well with no chunky bits in it...however I do have great protein shakers. The price point for me is great as it is cheaper than most...slightly less protein per scoop but I changed their provided scooper for a bigger one so I get a little more protein per drink...together with slightly higher calories if your counting. Personally I would recommend it as it tastes great and has a great price point. All I can say is Salted caramel is great...cant speak much about their other flavours as haven't tried them.

Great Whey
Great whey, mixes smoothly with zero clumps and the taste is way better than expected. Solid protein quality and really helps with muscle recovery after workouts, definitely worth the buy.

Great flavour, easy on the stomach, value for money
Flavour: Salted Caramel Taste is probably the last thing I mention when I talk about protein shakes because out of all the reasons I choose to drink them, taste is not one of them. This one however is an exception. It smelled great when I opened the lid and I still can’t get over how good it tastes. There’s no chemical aftertaste or lingering smell. I’ll probably get bored of this flavour in some time but that’s a different story. It mixes well with water and has a creamy texture. I’ve been using it for the past couple of days and so far haven’t experienced any stomach issues. Some comments have mentioned that Salted Caramel is on the sweeter side but in my opinion it’s as sweet as most other flavoured protein powders. The last tub I used was Dymatize ISO (fudge brownie) and that was certainly sweeter than this one, so maybe that’s why I’m not complaining about it. Overall, it’s pretty good. Dissolves well, is easy on the stomach, doesn’t cost a lot, doesn’t have too many ingredients, and has 21 gram of protein per serving (30 gm) which isn’t too bad. I totally recommend this.

Good product.
Good flavour, slightly sickly. Banana flavour is difficult to nail. Decent whey protein. Good value. Decent macros.

Delicious delicious delicious. I cant get enough of this stuff. Finding a good protein powder is like a needle in a haystack. This is the best!

Slightly bland sweetness, poorly sized scoops.
Texture is ok, a little bit gritty but nothing problematic, flavour is ok, but I'll be honest mostly artificially sweet and not much choco-hazelnut. A similar complaint for the flavour is raised for the White Chocolate Pistachio BodyFuel. My biggest issue is the bag of BodyFuel and the tub of Critical Whey both contain the exact same scoops. Except the BodyFuel says one scoop is 34g serving, and the Critical Whey says 2 scoops for a 30g serving. Now clearly these both can't be correct. I weighed them both, they both work out at 23g±2g per single scoop. So as it turns out I've been massively under dosing the BodyFuel, and if I followed instructions would be massively overdosing the critical whey. Honestly I don't really care how they determine what a serving is, but it's important that the scoop sizing be at least close to what the instructions state. A 50% larger serving than expected is very significant.

Best tasting protein powder I have tried.
This is the most pleasant tasting protein powder I have ever used . Very nice mixed with water or Greek yogurt. Will definitely be sticking with this one for a while. It's easy to mix in a shaker , but two scoops, which is the recommended amount, produces a thickish mixture when mixed with 125g of yogurt.

Poor quality product
I bought the choco beuno flavour previously with no issue, but I thought let me try a different flavor. So I tried this vanilla flavour, and all I can say is it was one of the worst powders out there. I have a Ninja Blast blender I use to mix this, but after every blend, it comes out clumpy, lumpy, stale-looking looking and I could taste bits in the drink, which was very off-putting. I reported it and got a replacement, which was the same flavour, but it had the same issue as the first one. I do not recommend it as it's very inconsistent. Reported it again and got refunded. (EDIT) No issues with choco bueno or salted caramel no lumps clumps or any inconsistencies.

J'ai pris chocolat blanc kinder bueno, c'est assez bon. Perso je la mange pâteuse avec peu d'eau, c'est quand même un petit plaisir. Cependant comme pourrait l'être une pâtisserie, il y a un potentiel écœurant prononcé. J'en mangerais pas 5 fois par jour quoi. Globalement satisfait du produit. J'ai bouffé la moitié des 2kg.

Muy bien

Der Geschmack ist ganz gut, die Löslichkeit eher semi - der Shake wird sehr dick, was einerseits gut ist, weil er selbst mit Wasser lecker cremig wird. Allerdings schadet es nicht, ein bisschen mehr Flüssigkeit zu nehmen als gewohnt. Der Zuckergehalt ist etwas höher als bei anderen Produkten, es ist auch insgesamt recht süß (wenn man das mag, ist es okay). Auf 100 g kommen 72 g Protein bei 8 g Zucker, das geht natürlich besser (aber das weiß man ja vorher). Nur sollte man das natürlich beachten, wenn man jedes zusätzliche Gramm Zucker vermeiden will. Für die Wettkampfdiät wahrscheinlich nicht das Produkt der Wahl. ;) Die Konsistenz des Pulvers ist äußerst staubig, man kann quasi nichts entnehmen, ohne in einer halben Staubwolke zu stehen und alles voller Pulver zu haben. Das ist etwas nervig. Insgesamt ein Produkt, das schmeckt und von den Nährwerten her, auch wenn diese nicht optimal sind, für die meisten Gym-Gänger wohl ausreichend sein dürfte (ggf. muss man halt schauen, "if it fits your macros" ;)). Ich persönlich würde es aber aufgrund der oben angeführten Punkte nicht noch mal kaufen.
