APC Protein drink previously included egg white protein. While egg is supposed to be the protein of highest biological value, I found that the product had produced gas when I used it. The current product does not contain eggs and I found this problem was eliminated. Flavor is good and price was less outrageous than some of the competition.

As some regular Amazon whey shoppers will know, the price of APC whey has jumped around quite a bit over time. I bought some APC vanilla whey at a relatively low price, so I can’t complain about the value. But if I paid full price, I certainly would.
This whey seems to mix well, and I’m using a spoon, so that’s fairly important to me. Unfortunately, after it’s mixed, you have to drink it. The flavor of this, compared to other vanilla whey powders, is vile. Whether it’s the vanilla flavoring or the sweeteners, I don’t know, but the APC vanilla whey has an overwhelming chemical taste. This comes from someone who generally prefers vanilla-flavored whey to the chocolate flavors.
That said, I’ll probably choke this stuff down, and I wouldn’t completely rule out another order, but only if it cost about half of what a good whey (eg, Optimum Nutrition, Dymatize) costs. Because the price changes so much, my rating doesn’t take value into account – it just compares this whey to others. Bad but not completely unacceptable – two stars.
