Just because you think it TASTE like BERRYs doesnt mean it does.  For the love of God the damn thing is the size of a small fruit (strawberry).  My little stomach cant take me chewing it too fast (nausea) and when you bite into those akward tasting parts

What are the little black dots?  Okay so I have tooo much time on my hands...have you looked at these PILLS up close?


Maybe I can get a job as a bariatric vitamin taster

LOL.

I just started using the gummy vitamins by Nutrition Now, and purchased them mail-order from Vitacost.com. Not too expensive, tastes great, and I don't skip them because of a chalky disgusting aftertaste like I did with the regular chewables or the nausea from the smell like I did from the liquids.

I use the multi-vitamin for adults, b-complex, calcium chew and co-q 10. They all taste good and I feel good knowing I'm getting them into my diet.

I will try it.  I have skipped a few vitamins because of the taste, which is probably not wise.

Thanks

Have you tried Gummy Vites from Costco?
They taste just like gummy bears, go down easy and cost about $9 for 200.

I started taking them a year aho and my labs have been excellent with no vitamin or nutrient deficiency. I take 2 Gummy Vites a day and 1 B-12 sublinjual (also from Costco).

Girl, don't even get me started on those Damn things! I would gag everytime I had to take them! So after some research and talking my nut, we found a multivitiman and calcium citrait in liquid form. I take the Emergenc-C multivitiman plus drink mix in the Apricot Mango flavor. U mix with 4 oz of water and it pretty darn good.....no wait, its Damn good compared to those chalky, nasty ones. Second, I take Blue Bonnett calcium citrait with magnesium (which is great for helping u stay regular).

 The chew-ables are NASTEEE - I made the mistake of getting a cinnamon flavored chewable.  First, it's huge.  Second, it tastes like cinnamon flavored chalk.  So, it's a little hot and chalky, not a combination I thought I would EVER experience.  I choke those effers down though, because I paid for them by gawd, LOL.  I also have berry (gross, but smaller) and Lemon Lime iron - omfg - as big a a mistake as the cinnamon in it's own little way - TART as HECK.  ACK!  I'm choking them all down, I paid for them and I'm going to finish them.  

I hate gummy texture, so I guess I am jacked, LOL!

Thanks for the laugh.  I too am trying to complete them because I bought them.  I am starting to think it may be worth it to throw them away.

I could not stomach them after my surgery either.  I have started taking Centrum and while it's in pill form, they are smaller than most complete vitamins.  I just aim the pill down my throat and then follow it with some water and I don't have any trouble.  I just can't stand those chewables anymore!

do you take them with food?  I can take vitamin on a empty stomach.
