Chocolate was pretty nasty, IMO. I use Metabolic Drive from t-nation.com for before bed shakes. this. the ON chocolate casein is terrible. the vanilla is pretty good. I dont like doing the cottage cheese thing b/c its too high in fat & calories for my goals. The ON casien is very low in fat/calories/carbs but high in protein. |

How is fat free cottage cheese too high in fat? 
The FF CC I use is 160 calories per cup with 30 g protein. Whey protein is usually about 120 calories per serving. |
| huh... didnt realize they had fat free cottage cheese. Is it cost effective though? For example, 30g of casein is about $0.90 per serving if you get the 4 lb tub. and dont have to worry about refrigeration, and can easily order in bulk. And the cheese is definitely an acquired taste, though I think I'd prefer the cheese over the chocolate casein. |

Of course this price will vary geographically. I hate the texture of CC so I blend it with water, ice and some natural peanut butter. I agree with powder being the most convenient. I just prefer to limit the amount of powder I supplement with in favor of actual food. Of course another alternative would be blending 1/2 cup of CC and half a scoop of casein powder. |
