It seems people don't dig the Red 40.
I personally bought 3 from the 2lb Amazon deal because whey is so damn expensive now, but I got the detox steps lined up:
1. Hide the tub: Stash it behind old canned beans so you stop sipping liquefied synthetic cereal milk.
2. Hydrate: Drink 3–4L of water. Red 40 and sucralose pass through your kidneys naturally—no $90 juice fast required.
3. Eat a sour green apple: Sucralose is 600x sweeter than real sugar. Reset your hijacked tastebuds.
4. Eat plain Greek yogurt: Apologize to your gut microbiome with live active cultures.
5. Upgrade the routine: Switch to unflavored whey + real frozen berries for actual antioxidants and gains.

Red 40 daily consumption under 475mg. And sucralose under 1200mg for a 150lb person is perfectly fine.
sucralose is not acceptable, it's like saccharin, bad news
stevia might be in the "acceptable" category

But in a world where whey protein is a high priced luxury item (especially the "clean" brands), I'll deal with some artificial sweeteners until prices normalize.
That said, Amazon had 2lb of this flavor for around the same price, so this isn't much of a deal.
**Will end up spending more money to try to fix it
A 16 oz Kombucha is $3, and only a small sip daily does the job.

It tastes fine tho, I mean the flavor itself is fine, not the best tasting but no issues
No sure what everyone is crying about in the comments
