"Sweetened with stevia and xylitol. No sucralose."

Protein is 24g/serving on a 42g serving. (or 44g serving from description, not picture)
That's an excessive amount (43-45% by weight) of filler IMO and works out to $0.0326/g of protein.
Compare this to the recent Nutrex deal that was $0.0225/g or woot Dymatize deal at $0.0238/g and it's a 45% premium over products with significantly less filler.
No thanks.

Ah those were the days. I still think better deals and there for those who are patient and stock up but many here are willing to pay so much higher (i.e., $10+/lb)
That said, the xylitol is unnecessary as far as I'm concerned—it doesn't really add any sweetness for me (I may just not be sensitive to how sweet it is) but it will make my stomach grumble without any other food in it. I've tried other powders that don't use xylitol (but have had all the other sweeteners) without getting the same biological response, but I've found many of those to be almost too sweet.
To be clear, I'm not a xylitol/artificial sweetener hater, I just know in this particular instance I have to be mindful of how/when I consume it for the same reason I quit chewing most sugar free gum. I currently have another brand (vanilla flavor) sweetened with stevia and monk fruit and it is maybe my favorite.
Also don't love the chemicals in it that aren't needed
