ON has had an all natural for years, sweetened with stevia. I find it has a funky/bitter aftertaste tho. :-X Maybe they've changed their formula ???. 3 grams of sugar isn't gonna kill ya.

Post by: ripitupbaby on December 18, 2008, 04:44:40 AM: I'm sucralose intolerant, it gives me really bad intestinal problems and bloat. I have to try to avoid splenda or sugar alchohols completely... just about the only place I take any sugar alcohols in anymore is protein powders. And I've cut back on those too, but I still have some time to time when I'm not dieting.

I prefer the powders with splenda or sucralose, or straight up sugar, because I agree that the stevia-based ones don't taste as good. I avoid all of them when I am dieting.

Same here. I've tried protein powders that are "naturally" flavored & there's something that doesn't taste right about them. :-\
