Shake too sweet for me.

I am not a person who likes sweet stuff and my weight gainer ( Mass Fusion) is chocolate flavored with a hint of coconut. Anyone has any ideas on how to make it a little less sweet? I really dont care if it increases in calories count.

    Unsweetened cocoa powder to bitter it down a little I guess?

    More water, add milk, salt to offset it. I've never done any of those, but they sound like good ideas. I remember an article where a drug/nutrition protocol called for around 650g protein a day, much of it from shakes. The author said to pick a bland tasting protein powder because no matter how good it tastes at first, you will get sick of it and something bland will be more tolerable. I get plain, unflavored whey protein concentrate becaise it's the cheapest and has no added ingredients. It doesn't taste like much if you mix it with water only. Very plain, a little musty. It doesn't bother me. I'd still choose it if I had to drink 10 of them a day.

    I don't like sweet things either. I'd mix it with cold coffee or find a food you can tolerate instead (chicken wings lol).
