Good but way to expensive.

Good for the price and completely dissolves.

If it's on sale i'll pick it up. It's sweeter and I like the taste

VPX Zero Impact Protein is very high quality, but you'll pay for it.
If you venture to a different Protein, look for something with a mixture of proteins such as Whey Protein Isolate, WP Hydrolysate, Casein, Egg, etc. Whey is absorbed the quickest, casein is absorbed at a medium rate, and egg lasts the longest.
Stay away from concentrates if you can (they aren't bad, but I am not a fan).
Milk Protein is typically a mixture of Whey & Casein

Optimum Nutrition, SciVation, Gaspari Nutrition, Dymatize are all good protein brands for the price.
I haven't used but heard nothing but good reviews about Black Star Labs XF and American Whey.

This man has done some research. Good to see!
If you want to try something different and to suit your own taste, try this website. It lets you build your own custom protein however you want it.

I hate GNC's protein. And its only 17G a scoop compared the the 24G a scoop your optimum protein offers.
OP you have the cash to spend? Check out nitrean protein.

GNC just started selling Gaspari Nutrition not too long ago
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/ has just about everything I mentioned, plus if you buy anything from bb.com (doesn't even need to be a Scivation product) put TeamScivation in the coupon code box at the checkout for 10% off your order

Start off just buying a small amount(1 or 2 lbs.) to sample it. I'd personally stay with a basic flavor like choc. or vanilla, and if you want to switch it up, blend some fresh fruit in with the choc. or vanilla to make whatever flavor you like. That way you can change it up all the time and not get tired of one "specialty" flavour.
