That's the best description of the flavor of this drink. The only thing that allows you to finish the can after you've opened it is the fact that it's delivering nutritional benefit. Just like when you take medicine that has an awful taste. There's also the fact that you spent money on it and you're not going to throw it away. I have tried the chocolate flavor of Slim Fast which is 250 calories as oppose to 110 in this drink. The flavor of the Slim Fast chocolate drink is leagues ahead. I don't think the nutritional content is the same, but it does deliver a very good amount. I believe the protein content of Zoic is better, however.
 Great Stuff September 22, 2008

To the guy who complained about lack of mouthfeel--hey buddy, you're not drinking a milkshake! You are getting 20 grams of protein in 110 calories. The chocolate flavor is great stuff (the vanilla less so, but still good). I had gastric bypass 5 months ago, and this is my regular breakfast. What could possibly beat a tasty, easy 20 grams? I can't claim to have tried EVERY product out there, but of the stuff I have tried, NOTHING came close to the combination of ease, taste, low calories, and low carbs of this drink.

I am a type one diabetic who is trying to reduce the number of carbs and increase the amount of protein in my diet. I drink one of these for breakfast and it holds me over until lunch. I take less insulin now which is better when it comes to losing weight. I will definitely recommend this drink to others! This is not a milk shake from Baskin Robbins people, it is a low fat, low carb, high protein drink, it will not taste unbelievably delicious. I am a very picky eater and would not be recommending this if it tasted bad. This drink taste much better than the other GNC drinks I used to buy. I highly recommend it.

I have been using these two products since they're introduction into market. I totally agree that both flavors have a very nasty after taste, but what a difference it made when I poured the shake out of the can and into a regular glass!!! The flavor, etc. was completely different and much more tolerable, I can actually say I enjoy the flavor now! Give it a try!
 Good for post-bariatric surgery diet September 3, 2008

I'm about a month past my gastric bypass surgery, and I still have problems handling many solid foods, especially meat protein. That makes it tough to hit my daily target for protein intake (60+ grams).
To be perfectly honest, ZOIC is not as tasty as many liquid diet "shake" drinks, such as HMR and Optifast. On the other hand, it contains 50% more protein, has ZERO sugar, and is only 110 calories.
Although I have both flavors, right now I prefer the Belgian Chocolate to the French Vanilla. As others have noted, the taste is very close to YooHoo, a sugary bottled chocolate drink that has been around since the 1920s. There's a very slight hint of grittiness, but it's not objectionable at all.
Would I be drinking this if I had not gone through gastric bypass? Probably not, but I find ZOIC to be an excellent alternative to other protein drinks with high sugar or fat count. An added plus is that it counts towards my 64 oz/day target for water consumption.
