Wasted $120 on a meal replacement powder that tasted like cardboard mixed with sadness

I got suckered by an ad promising all-day energy and 40 meals for one low price. First shake made me gag, second one I mixed with chocolate syrup just to choke it down. By day four I was back to eating leftover pizza for breakfast and the tub sat in my cabinet for six months before I tossed it. Anyone else fall for those bulk powder deals that end up being totally undrinkable.

Oh man, did you try blending it with ice cream too? I fell for one of those keto meal powders that promised to be "creamy" and it tasted like someone blended up old vitamins and chalk.

You can count me in, that's exactly what mine tasted like too.

Julia got it right, that cardboard and sadness combo is spot on. Blending with ice cream is a good idea but that's basically admitting defeat and turning your expensive health shake into a $25 milkshake. Those keto promises of creaminess are the worst, they just taste like they ran out of good ideas and threw in some chalk dust.
