Bought a protein supplement (a new flavor) because the one I normally got was sold out. I got "double rich chocolate", but by mistake I think they have me "double rich dogshit."

I've only taken two scoops of it. Do you think they will let me swap for another flavor even though I've already opened it?

I wouldn't even think of returning a consumable I bought and used if the problem was "I dont like the taste," but I understand some have no shame.

Call the company that makes it. They may help you out. It's not GNCs fault it sucks.

Well it's a 80 serving container so I'd prefer not to consume something that takes like shite for the next few months

No one is going to force you to use it.

I personally would chalk it up to experience, but if it bothers you that much call GNC and ask them.

True. And I guess it is their fault if they stock something that is nasty but I have to believe some people like it.

Buy some of this

If the extra sugar is a problem, just use this for your post workout

So throw it away, find a friend who wants it, or call the manufacturer. It's not like they left an expired product on the shelf. Why should GNC take the hit on a product they can't resell because you don't like the taste of something they didn't make? Then you can complain about the higher prices they'll charge to account for this.

Just add two or three cups of sugar to it. When mixing, add Hershey's syrup.

Or blend it with a banana. I find that makes a lot of protein taste better.

Be a real man and go to Complete Nutrition and let them give you legalized roids and also help them earn their commission. Come on woman!

GNC will swap out anything you don't like for any reason as long as there's more than half left.
