Surprisingly good in Vanilla
By Gavin M. on Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2021
I remember when I was in HS ( 20 years ago ), most products flavored as Vanilla were not good. I purchased the French Vanilla latte flavor to keep it somewhat simple. Note, the scoop is a good size ( larger than I was expecting ). I tried 1/2 of a scoop in a cup of coffee, the flavor was weak. So I added another half scoop ( to now be 1 full scoop ). The coffee was still on the darker side but the taste was surprisingly good. Be sure to continue to stir, the product will 100% mix. If you do not like using coconut oil or liquid MCT oil then give this a try. It's a great source of healthy fats. If you are following a KETO diet then it's a great product to add to the daily routine.

NOT KETO FRIENDLY. WORSE THAN TABLE SUGAR
By ThomasLL on Reviewed in the United States on October 11, 2017
This is a reposting from another informed reviewer. I’m very upset with overlooking this information before purchasing. From the first sip I knew it was NOT KETO FRIENDLY. Here is the reposting, heed the warning: HOW CAN AMAZON ALLOW THIS TO SOLD AS KETO WHEN IT HAS -Maltodextrin which can cause spikes in your blood sugar because it has a high glycemic index, and this can be particularly dangerous for people with diabetes symptoms or insulin resistance. Maltodextrin’s glycemic index is even higher than table sugar, ranging from 106 to 136 (while table sugar is 65)Easily absorbed carbohydrates like maltodextrin and sugar get into your bloodstream quickly, and if the carbs aren’t used for energy, they’re stored as fat. This is very different than real complex carbohydrates from whole grains that are broken down and absorbed slowly, helping keep you feeling full and energized for a longer period of time..A 2012 study found that maltodextrin increased bacterial adhesion to human intestinal epithelial cells and enhanced E. coli adhesion, which is associated with autoimmune disorders. Even more research points out that maltodextrin promotes the survival of salmonella, which may be responsible for a broad range of chronic inflammatory diseases. A study conducted at the Mucosal Immunology and Biology Research Center in Boston also indicates that maltodextrin impairs cellular antibacterial responses and suppresses intestinal antimicrobial defense mechanisms, leading to inflammatory bowel disease and other conditions that arise from an inappropriate immune response to bacteria
