Maltodextrin either can be moderately sweet or have hardly any flavor at all. Maltodextrin is a polysaccharide that is used as a food additive. It is produced from starch and is usually found as a creamy-white hygroscopic powder. Maltodextrin is easily digestible, being absorbed as rapidly as glucose.
My wife likes it but it is just to heavy for me, just eat a can of tuna and a serv of almonds and it is much better for ya. I do this at least once a day and before I goes to bed.
