Gas or bloating	And it also foams up a lot, so you have to wait for the foam to die down after blending.. unless you like the feeling of a bloated stomach.


Taste		So many flavors and great for an all around protein sup.

Taste		The problem is that Vanilla Ice cream is literally the worst flavor I have ever tasted.
Taste		It is flat out disgusting! Rather than tasting like vanilla ice cream, it tastes like spoiled milk and tires.
Value for money		Very pricey,
