It's the pea protein. The aftertaste is horrible. They've started putting it in vegan ice cream. .. Why?

It’s cheap and people who avoid soy might buy pea instead. Almond protein might work better for ice cream from a taste perspective, but that’s super expensive. We have a great almond & coconut based ice cream in our region but it costs 2x as much as the milk based one.
