Got the order replaced and drank one. It's pretty bad. I wish I had paid the $0.50 difference for other flavours but now I and some stupid motherfucker have to drink 36 of these.

    This is why I prefer unflavoured protein powder, but it rarely goes on sale so if I'm being cheap I have to roll the dice on if a giant tub of it has a bearable flavour or not.

      I figured I'd be safe with chocolate but it's like if chocolate milk was made with water and splenda.

        They don't want to add more carbs to it so they use the worst artificial sweeteners on it.

        I started doing my own mixes:

        • pumpkin spice, and add just enough brown sugar and to be drinkable.
        • chocolate, with cocoa powder, cinnamon, and white sugar

        I usually use 2-4tbsp of my mixes per serving of protein powder. Matcha powder is a good flavouring too, but I don't work out in the morning so I don't want the caffeine.
