    i think strawberry banana isnt the greatest.. but we need another fruity flavor... maybe a berry blast protein shake? or fruit punch.. if you can get it to taste right... thatd be some awesome stuff
    Thats if your talkin bout protein...

    blueberry or grape would be neat and probably not too hard to flavor right, that is if we're talking about results, i wouldnt try it with something with substance like nitrean or maximus

    and if your talking about the thick stuff... why not peanut butter flavor?

    No, sorry, a new protein flavor (Nitrean, Opticen, and MAXIMUS).

    Not too sure about the strawberry-banana, probably take some convincing to try it, but I'd definately order straight banana if you offered it. I've tried a peach whey that was pretty good so that may also be an option.

    You have to remember that Nitrean has whey, casein, and EGG proteins. I am not sure we could make a good fruity flavoring with our blend.

    I say go for it, sounds good.

    I recently got the sample pack from true protein, and they have a strawberry/banana flavor and I really liked it alot. I dont like banana's either, but if its flavored in something than I like it, strange I am I guess lol..

    What happened to the cookie n cream flavor?

    The thing I like about AtLarge is that there are not so many different products and choices: it's simple, it works, and it tastes fine.

    I think these new flavors sound horrible; if people can't eat what you have they won't with the new ones. I would suggest simple flavors, but only if you find it absolutely necessary to make more.

    strawberry-banana would be an awesome idea. I would use vanilla/chocolate if I wanted to add things to it and use the strawberry-banana by itself as a change of pace.

    do you have orange creme flavor?

    I noticed that orange is one of the best flavors used to artificially mask mild bitter and strong texture, such as it's use in fibers. I suggest creme because it compliments orange so well and makes things with body taste more natural (edt: the vanilla could satisfy the creme flavor component. Just add orange)

    I was just thinking the other day that when I place another order for Nitrean (just placed a vanilla order couple days ago with Maximus and ETS) that I might get Strawberry and then mix that with a bananna to get a strawberry/bannanna flovor......Strawberry/Bannanna nitrean would be great, especially when making shakes adding a real bannanna and strawberries, to get a nice mixture of the protein flavor and the fruits......Vanilla Nitrean will always be my favorite because of the versatility; goes with anything........keep up the good work ALN

    I hated strawberry nitrean but banana sounds nice.
    I also think caramel flavor would be pretty good.

    I agree. I've tried some nasty tasting crap before, but I don't think I've EVER tried ANYTHING flavored orange and didn't like it.

    On second thought, orange cream does sound amazing.
