OK... so...

Let me preface this by saying that I think largely the addition of artificial sweeteners in protein powders is silly. The vast majority of artificial sweeteners would be utterly counter productive to a healthy eating/working out lifestyle. Additionally, why exactly does anyone need their protein to taste like a damn milkshake? Why tastes basically like powdered milk. Neither really good or bad. So why add essentially diet candy bar ingredients to it?

Which is why I sought this one out. No artificial sweetener.

One scoop in Almond/coconut blend milk. Shake well. Easy.

It's the drinking it part that's hard. I've had monkfruit extract before, and I have had stevia before. Neither time did I encounter the bitter, noxious, acrid smell and taste this mix has. It's frankly appalling. The smell is something like gym socks mixed with tootsie rolls, and the taste is actually worse than that. Neither sweet nor bland, the closest thing I could compare it to is chlorine with nesquick. It leaves an aftertaste that even brushing my teeth didn't help. Strongly chemical, achingly synthetic.

To think anyone drinks this for better health in any way is actually disturbing.

Go to the nearest store with bulk bins. Buy whey isolate. That's the only ingredient, 5 tablespoon = one scoop. Add some cinnamon or something. Done.
