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.

You could always try www.trueprotein.com & www.proteinfactory.com & use stevia (spelling?) as the sweetner.

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. :-\
