 Questionable Contents, Not Tasty, and Does Not Dissolve Well August 24, 2010
Howard P. Cabalfin (San Dimas, CA United States)
On Youtube a reviewer said Muscle and Monster Milk had some of the highest levels of Monosodium Glutamate, which makes things taste good while killing brain cells. A Consumer Reports article said these same products also contained high amounts of lead. Cytosport countered with a statement to the contrary but the doubt remains. And I will probably look for another product with less controversy. In addition to these concerns, the flavor compared to BSG, Optimum Nutrition's, and even the Muscle Milk version is less palatable with a hint of a medicinal aftertaste. Last, the powder clumps in my shaker bottle even after numerous shakes and takes about an hour to dissolve completely. It does have the lowest cholesterol of all the powders I've tried (and mentioned in this review)
I will be trying other products based on this experience with Monster Milk.
 Great price and over 50g of protein. You can't beat it. Beats GNC's prices. August 11, 2010

Great price and over 50g of protein for two scoops. You can't beat it. Beats GNC's prices by a ton.
Chocolate is great, Mocha is not July 12, 2010
Anthony Johnson
I have to agree with the over-packaging comment, what is the point of putting it in a huge container if it is only 60% full, but aside from that a pretty good product. I love the chocolate flavor and it even motivates me to work out so I can have a good chocolate shake. The taste isn't exactly the same as Muscle Milk, but a little less sweet and a little thicker, both which I like. You can mix it as thin or thick as you want and the flavor is pretty much just as great all the time. I have had quite a few protein shakes, and Muscle milk and Monster milk were the only ones that I actually enjoyed, some others were just tolerable and many were horrible. As great as this is, I didn't like the mocha latte flavor. It also made both my wife and I feel sick, not sure if we have a bad batch, or if its just something that doesn't agree with us. We tried monster food chocolate as well, it is not as good as monster milk, and if you mix it thin it actually tastes bad. I always mix mine in a blender with milk and a few ice cubes, and it always seams to mix very well.
MONSTER MILK... ITS ALIVEEEE!!!! June 17, 2010

Muscle Milk is by far the best protein shake available. The taste good, don't mess you up if you're lactose intolerant, and they help with muscle building and recovery. I rarely use them before+after+before sleep. Usually just before and sometimes after and I get good results.
LIGHT is good for losing weight or not gaining any weight for lean muscle. REGULAR is a balance of not gaining much fat and getting a little bigger. MONSTER is my favorite because it is good for building mass. It's mostly higher doses of the protein, but Monster Mass has Amino Acids which help in recovery (most important stage in muscle building). I used to add Glutamine supplement to the end of my workout but now the Monster Mass has it included with other Amino Acids.
I prefer shakes over the bars and Muscle Milk is the one to get. Plus it mixes better than most proteins. Plus the ready to drink are great for when you are in a rush!
Great Product All Around, but Don't Confuse it w/ Muscle Milk June 17, 2010
Joe Blow (Kansas City, MO)
This ia great product, 350 calories w/ 50 grams of high quality milk isolate protein, which combines fast and slow digesting proteins. If you're lactose intolerant, this product will digest just fine even though it is milk isolate.
People are complaining that it doesn't mix as well or taste as good as some other powders but you have to remember that it's a MILK ISOLATE product and, thus, won't mix as easily as whey concentrate and will have a slightly thicker, maybe chalkier texture. BUT it still mixes pretty good and tastes pretty smooth. Again, if you want a whey concentrate, BUY ONE but realize this is not a whey concentrate and will not mix or taste like one.
Also, it is not Muscle Milk, which is in itself a very good product. This product has less fat and higher protein content. Additionally Muscle Milk is primarily a calcium caseinate product and, thus, has a different taste and texture to Monster Milk. Muscle Milk is heavily sweetened product, and Monster Milk is not. Thus, Monster Milk has less sugar but this also means it won't taste quite as delicious as Muscle Milk. It's a trade off folks. If you want a milk shake, buy one. If you want a good tasting protein powder that has plenty of amino acids and a nice blend of fast and slow digesting, high quality proteins, buy Monster Milk.
Finally, flavors. I've tried chocolate, brownie batter, banana cream, and mocha latte. Chocolate tasted very good. Mocha latte tasted pretty good. Brownie Batter took a little while to get used to but now I think tastes very good. Banana....NOT good. LOL It is bland as hell, almost tasteless.
Overall, great product. Just realize it is not Muscle Milk and will not taste like it.
