American Whey - Rats, roaches, feces and urine

The manufacturing plants and company, American Sports Nutrition, are being sued by the Dept. of Justice and FDA for multiple violations of contamination of the protein.

Rats, roaches, feces, urine ... all found in samples of the protein. The company failed no less than three inspections. Here's the best part; their marketing:

"American Whey was Voted #1 by distributors for BEST TASTING Whey Protein!
Ingredients:
100% Cold-Filtered Isolate, Ion Exchanged Whey, Natural Flavors, Natural Sweetener Fructose, Digestive Enzyme Blend (bromelin, papain, protease, peptizyme)."

Steer clear of cheap whey. Best case its inferior to products like MassPro. Worst case well, you're eating rats.

Got to say, we've always been hesitant to go out of our way in knocking competitors and instead chose to let MASS PRO Whey Protein's quality and results stand alone and speak for itself.

It's been a good and sound tact to maintain, frankly.

Go into your local GNC or Vitamin World... do you see Jay Robb, MASS PRO, or Beverly International proteins offered for sale?

No, you do not.

For good reason.

We just issued a new newsletter that delves into the 14 year history of MASS PRO Whey Protein, and it is quite insightful and revealing... it will be posted online soon for non-subscribers and I'll be sure to reply with a link here.

We started testing for Melamine years before the more recent crisis, but the really sad state of affairs is that I know of only a HANDFUL of suppliers who test for it to this day-
