29.4g is the serving size for ON Gold Standard 100% Whey Vanilla Ice Cream Flavor. Now I'm normally not anal about weighing protein powder as I just go by Scoops and leveling it out. I just weighed 1 leveled out scoop with the scoop shaken down so there are no air pockets and it weighed in at 24g/ scoop. I put 2 scoops on the scale and it read 50g. I'm emailing ON about this as I'm not getting the amount of protein I should be getting

You're right, that is anal. Small stuff like that, really shouldn't worry about. If you're missing that much, the total amount of protein you're missing is minuscule and not to be worried about. Instead of worrying about that, just have a heaping scoop instead of a level scoop. What I'm trying to say; If your nutrition and training are spot on, that slight of a difference won't matter.

"Dear Michael, Thank you for your interest in Optimum Nutrition products. To answer your question, the scoop that we have provided is not intended to be leveled out with product. Instead, the scoop size should be a "heaping scoop." Should you experiment with using a heaping scoop, I have no doubt that you will find it is 32.4g or more. Keep in mind also, that for those who have lost the scooper, Optimum Nutrition recommends 4 tablespoons of our Whey to be as close to the serving size as possible. I hope this information is helpful. If you have any further questions, comments or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Best Regards! Rebecca Johnsen Consumer Affairs Rep 1-800-705-5226"

Heaping, but not to the point of falling off... kind of level at the top, but rounded, sides at a 37.5 degree angle... #bcrazylaugh4ua#
