Has an odd, chalky, chemical "pineapple " taste

I was really looking forward to this flavor after trying strawberries! The moment I took a sip, my face involuntarily grimaced - I couldn't even manage it on the first try. I put 2 scoops in 12 ounces of water as directed. The taste is too sweet, but has nothing to do with real pineapple - kind of like 99 bananas don't taste like bananas. blueberry flavors. I will not try the second tasting. *Fun fact I recently found out: The reason 99 bananas and toffee taste like a "weird version of a banana" is because the flavor is based on bananas, which no longer exist. Artificial banana flavoring appeared in the US before real bananas existed! For reference, bananas were introduced to the general public in the US at the 1876 Philadelphia Convention, and these bananas were the Gros Michel variety, which was grown as a monoculture and suffered from a disease that essentially wiped out the variety. Now let's eat banana "Cavendish". They're delicious, but they're also on the verge of extinction due to a new strain of the same disease that wiped out Gros Michel - who knows, maybe in the future we'll have a new banana "taste" to get used to!
