I bought this after reading about the great health benefits, but it tastes horrible. Any suggestions on how to adapt it so it's more palatable?

I think it taste horrible too! I either dissolve it in warm water and drink it fast or I mix it with a little orange juice. The orange is the best way to go to get rid of most of the horrible taste. Good luck!

I use it in capsule form. You can purchase a small capsule filling kit on Amazon. Drink enough water as you would with any tablet, and you should be ok.

Only if you can stomach the taste. It's the most ungodly product I've ever attempted to consume. (I don't actually know about the nutritional feasibility of living off of this, but I highly doubt you'd want to try.)

I LOVE the old raspberry- the 'new and improved' flavor is awful. It is way too sweet and now has a sweetner wang to it I camnot stand. I think their test market must have been a bunch of 12 year olds. I have given it to several friends to try and no one so far has liked it. Please write to Alacer to tell them how you feel!

It tastes a bit like cooked eggwhite to me if you only mix it with water. Needs to be in a flavored beverage to avoid aftertaste, at least for my tastebuds. It's good high-quality protein, though. I think that using it in recipes is the best idea.

Taking it straight isn't palatable. My spouse thinks it's "ok", but I can't hack the "after taste". However if I put it inside a drink of some sort, I cannot discern a taste...or there's a change so small that it does not affect the pleasure of the beverage.

Haha sorry you had to go through the experience of tasting this awful product! I have long since given up on this stuff- the only thing I've ever heard someone use it in and find it tolerable was in a chocolate protein smoothie (they wanted a hint of pb flavor) and even with all that flavor/sugar covering it up/helping it the person still could barely stand it. I threw mine out, it just wasn't worth trying to save for me. =p maybe slathering Nutella or something over it would help? (But uh...that sorta cancels out the whole point of this zero-calorie spread, doesn't it? Lol)

I enjoy it but the taste for this type of product is a very personal experience. I have read other reviews of people who might not like it but I am someone who enjoys natural tasting things. I don't like something having a very sweet tasting chocolate and this does not. You might want to go to a local Whole Food Store or some type of health food store as they usually sell one serving packets. This way you can taste it before buying. I did this when I bought another product I am now using and bought at Amazon called RAW meal replacement. Much less expensive on Amazon and this is now my choice of for shakes. Hope this helps.

It's pretty tart .. I tried mixing it in yogurt but it definitely altered the taste. I now just mix it in water

Yes, in my experience it tastes and smells absolutely terrible. Best of luck!

I am a vegan. Make sure you have a little something in you stomach. Put the contents on some mashed banana or some type of food, if you can't tolerate the taste. Also know, it goes into your system more quickly. I no longer use it.

Never have tried the taste, I use it for circulation issues. Sorry couldn't have a better answer for you

It's not bad. I drink it plain, or add kale and it's a nice alternative to the vanilla. (I have an intolerance for chocolate, so haven't tried that flavor). Mixing this flavor with fruit isn't a good thing.

It tastes good-the vanilla is much better than I thought it would be. I like to mix it with half chocolate & add a little powedered peanut butter. But you have to be sure to use some kind of blender- if you just stir or shake it, it's way too gritty in texture.

To me it taste great and is a staple in my diet around an ounce a day. For some this quantity is too much. Also it is not a food you have on its own. How do you have it, for example mix with banana and papaya and Tahini in shake. Some people like it with Miso in hot water. while it has all the nutrients, it needs to be taken with other foods to give an alchemical balance, i.e., so that it is not a bland energy. I just noticed that you are having tablets. The powder is much better for mixing with other foods. Tablets are not that great.

Yay! I hope you like it as much as I do. Plan on getting used to it for a few days. Add things like banana and peanut butter, or blueberries, at first so that you get used to the flavor. Enjoy!

It is a powder and could be a littte grainy. You can use cinnamon sprinkle along with the powder in order to improve the taste. Good Luck
