Yeah, that's pretty annoying. I did chuckle at your angry face image, though. ;)

I think that's the face I made while drinking it, and then again when I realized the source of the problem!

They *do* taste like chalk, don't they!

I love your fully-realized illustration here :P

[celaeno]

That icon is awesome :)

And the chalkiness caught me off guard, since all the menu says is "smoothie" and you pick what fruit flavors, nothing about this whey protein powder. What I was really in the mood for was a Jamba Juice type smoothie but the only thing nearby was a Starbucks so I thought this would be an acceptable substitute. It was not. I couldn't even finish it.

Generally, yeah, but I was craving a smoothie and at a train station where the only thing that sold food was a Starbucks.

I still kind of want a smoothie since this was such a disappointment, but I know not to make this mistake again!

Is that the commercial that has the British guy making omelets for a grumpy old lady named Hazel? I've heard of that but I never knew anyone who had one :)

[solteronita]

Non-tasty beverages at Starbucks?! No way! ;)

The vanilla rooibos tea is actually pretty good :) I just wasn't expecting stealth protein powder in my fruit drink! Of course, a quick googling for "Vivanno" and "chalky" shows that people came to the conclusion that these suck years ago, it just never occurred to me to check.

I don't drink coffee at all, but I've heard that about the burnt flavor before. Apparently it's successful though?
