    just make sure you put heaps of water with it. even more than it recommends and if it starts to thicken give it a stir and/or add more water. i dont mind the taste at all.

    you definitely get used to the feeling...just try the different suggestions. I find sculling it straight after stirring vigourously best cause its over and done with really quick lol! I dont mind the flavour though, the orange one is the one I use!

    Great, thank you all so much for the suggestions.
    I had it again this morning and again I couldn't finish it. I've got the orange one.
    I find I just can't dissolve all the powdery bits? I did use water from the fridge - I like a cold drink in the morning
    Thanks, I will try the juice suggestion as well.

    yeah i dunno about the milk thing, i think you can get some called benefibre that has no taste and you can put it into milk, tea and even food. i found it made me really gassy though. i just use tap water and scull it too.

    I saw that one too, but wasn't sure so just went with the one I'd heard of, lol. I saw that Aldi has a brand as well...
