Actually, it wasn’t horrible, just distinctly, incessantly, ill-tasting, “even with” the lemon Crystal Lite substitute mixed in.
And it wasn’t that it was bad to drink, so much as it was bad to drink nine 8-oz glasses, one every ten minutes, and then four more the next morning. Gah.
Your description of the taste reminds me of the taste of the nasty glucose stuff they make you take if you’re doing the full monty of fasting glucose tests. It’s foul and sicky-sweet and thick, all at the same time. Why can’t they titrate some nice Québec Grade B Maple Syrup?
Do you have to use *their* flavoring packets, or can you use your own? I admit to cowardice: I haven’t gone in for my fun&games yet.
You know what they say about folks who Drink the KoolAid–and I’m not happy either that the Jamestown massacre memorial site mentions Jim Jones as one of the victims. He died: he was NOT a victim.
“Crystal Light” is recommended. I bought some, then found they had packets already taped to the jug. I used those. Not sure if sugar would be a problem.
Wrong.
Please tell me you chose the ‘Mind the Gap” mug on purpose.
But of course!
make sure the gargle the Nom-Nom song while drinking it. 🙂
It’s lucky I was able to get it down.

It was, though, effective at its purpose.
