I am, in fact, a child. And I am fussy 😂 Does anyone know a protein powder that doesn’t leave that horrific chemical aftertaste in a shake? I know there are flavourless ones, but I can still taste that weird fake… something. Every single time. (Maybe I’m insane. I wouldn’t rule it out.) If you’ve found one that doesn’t taste like you are drinking plastic and it is available in the UK or Thailand, please tell me. PLEASE?
