    Even without the dextrose, I don't like the vanilla. It has that nasty protein after taste.

    I can relate bro. The first time I had it with the proper ratio of sugar to protein, my eyes started to water and my throat burned too. I have strawberry protein though and it is my favorite flizavor!

    You could try getting maltodextrin and replacing half the dextrose with that in the shake
