Anyone have iron supplements that don't smell and taste horrible when going down?? I gag every time!

I use the Bariatric Advantage one and it tastes deliciously fruity.

I've been taking the Celebrate Multi-With-Iron, and those are great tasting. The iron-only chewables taste good, too.

I take a double dose of the Wellesse liquid iron. It tastes like grape juice to me.

My clinic put me on Vitron-C.  I don't have a problem with them, but maybe I wouldn't with any type...

I used to take the Celebrate tangerine flavored one, which was good but had a weird artificial sweetener aftertaste.  When I ran out, I bought a different one locally.  I just started taking this one:  http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/p/nature-plus-chewable-iron-w-v it-c-90-chewable-tablets/nt-1168#.U1Rgwse7kyw

It's super tasty...tastes like a cherry sweet-tart.  And no funky artificial sweetener aftertaste.
