Has anyone tried the new formula for the chocolate shakeology? (not the vegan formula) I got mine a couple of days ago and frankly, I do not like it at all.

I agree that I am not a fan. I hope that it grows on us. I can taste the sugar removal and the "fruitier" and less chocolatey taste. Better for us I guess but I do not look forward to it as much, that's for sure.

I received my bag in the mail yesterday and was so excited! But as soon as I opened the bag I knew something was off. It didn't have that rich Chocolate smell to it anymore. As soon as I tasted it, I was very upset. I don't like it AT ALL. I'm going to have to return it and try a different flavor. I want the old formula back.

I mixed it with 1 cup of vanilla almondmilk and 1.5 tbsp of PB2 (powdered peanut butter) and 2 handfuls of ice and it was better. The vanilla almondmilk added back some of the richness that was lacking. With the old formula I used regular almondmilk and 1 Tbsp of PB2. try it and see if that helps.

I got mine this week and tried it. It barely tastes like chocolate and has an overwhelming artificial sweetener taste. I did try the old formula (thankfully I still have like 1/2 a bag) vs. the new formula. Both mixed with just water. VERY different. Why mess with perfection? I have been drinking Shakeology for 18 months, and I am truely disappointed in this new version.

Did anyone else notice that the new NON-vegan formula has pea protein powder and sprouted brown rice protein powder? Like they are trying to slowly convert you to vegan? By this time next year, they'll be like "sorry it's only chocolate vegan now" because I bet you it tastes just as nasty as this one, and the only difference is the little bit of whey protein they left in this new formula. Is Beachbody trying to make all of us vegan? I am not interested. Humans are at the top of the food chain for a reason people!

AND the new formula is a smaller bag. FOR THE SAME PRICE. Still supposedly 30 servings, but smaller servings. And those smaller servings have more calories and more fat than the old/original chocolate. Not cool.

Thanks for your feedback, people. I'll pass this on.

Agreed. Not a fan either...boooo!! It has that super sweet aftertaste and doesn't taste anything like the non-superfood formula. First time in 15 months I didn't suck mine down in 5 minutes and I actually dumped about 1/4 of it out. Blech

COMPLETELY agree with you, Hopeful. I typically add almond milk to my Shakeology, but I'm a simple gal...I don't want to add dozens of different things to make the new chocolate formulation taste good, especially when we had such a wonderful product without the new formulation.

I'm new to Shakeology, but I REALLY don't like the artificial sweetener aftertaste. From what I'm reading here, that's new. Does anyone know if any of the other flavors are without the fake sweetener taste?

Opened and tried the new chocolate (not vegan) today and was disappointed. It is definitley missing the chocolatey flavor we want. It is not a marketable item (re: I cannot recommend) under it's current flavor profile. If it requires doctoring, it's not worth my investment. They struck out on this one. I want more information on why they changed.
