I'm traveling overseas and I took some Myoplex Deluxe with me because I didn't know whether or not I'd be able to find good, cheap protein supplements out here. I guess I was rather stupid for getting a protein mix I've never tried before.
Yesterday I had one shake, 16 oz of water mixed with one Myoplex Deluxe packed in a shaker for 2 minutes, with a cucumber, a peach, and some Coke as a chaser because it tastes like bull testicles. Wow, no protein shake burps; it tastes like crap but I like. Whoa, lots of gas, lots of bloating. WTF, my mouth is watering (happens to me if I drink more than a couple of ounces of milk), off to the bathroom. WHABAM! Projectile vomiting. It's 99% lactose free, and I mixed it in water, what gives?
Back home I bought some Syntrax Nectar, because it's supposed to be the best tasting protein ever. Eh, I give it a 7/10, Muscle Milk, in all it's "bad" glory, tastes way better. Lots of burping. LOTS. About an hour of discomfort too.

Weird thing is I can CHUG Muscle Milk and regular, not Deluxe, Myoplex, but in RTD form, without any discomfort, and I actually like how they taste. I obviously couldn't bring a month's worth of RTD protein shakes on an airplane with me across the Atlantic, and now I've got 35 servings of Myoplex Deluxe that'll make me upchuck if I try them. Help? Why's it makin me barf?

If something makes you puke, that's your way of saying not to eat it anymore. Throw the crap away and eat real food.

Isn't coke after working out and using a protein shake kinda counter-productive?

A cucumber after a workout? That explains a lot. I can't eat cucumbers because that is all I taste for the next 6 hours. I burp them like mad. And combine it with a peach...another very strong flavor. PLUS the acid and sugar of a Coke?

Good God...why did that even sound like a good idea?

LMAO, looking back at this thread I realized that my horrible grammar, possibly influenced by the fact that I was surrounded by people who could not speak English, made it seem like I mixed the cucumber and peach in with the protein shake. I had the cucumber about a half an hour later as a part of a salad, and ate the peach while I was watching television trying to sit the protein burps out. Did chase the shake down with Coke though.

I ended up giving them to a relative that can down the horrible garbage protein shakes they've got; he actually liked the way the Myoplex tasted :p

you could just get your protein from foods while you're away until you get back no? Granted, you'll be spending lots of time eating, but better than worshipping the porcelain throne.

CytoSport products are great. I use the CytoGainer right now and have used other protein/weight gaining/muscle maximizer products and they usually make me crap real bad and have stomach pains. CytoGainer is great in my opinion and tastes great too (Cookies n Cream).

Muscle Milk is by far my favorite, although most people around here agree that it isn't the best kind of protein shake you can get.

I bought Syntrax Nectar after SVT Cobra said it was the best tasting protein shake ever, but if best tasting means "chalkiest, most artificially flavored" then I guess he's right :p

What kind of water were you using? I personally have little faith in overseas tap water. I'd be willing to bet it something in the water that made you puke. The cucumber + peach + coke combo didn't help, but as nasty as that sounds I'd still put my money on the water... if you were using tap, that is.

Took a sip out of a 500 ml bottle of Nestle Pure Life mineral water and then made the shake with it, as I'm scared shitless of the tap water in Jordan.

Hmm..I've never had a problem with Myoplex and frankly I love it. With that said, I'm now using Optimum Nutrition whey which is easy to mix and taste pretty good. Much cheaper than EAS.
