I got the raspberry ketones from Nutraplanet, but I noticed they smell nothing like raspberries. I thought one of the properties of RK was a strong raspberry smell. Please tell me this stuff is legit. What's the deal?

I heard nutra mixed up a container of the ketones with a container of this new special bulk that is top secret. Are the ketones light green in colour and after ingestion give you a whole lot of energy, clean, powerful feeling, and an increase in lifts and libido..?

(4-(4-hydroxyphenyl) butan-2-one) is the chemical responsible for the raspberry FLAVOR.

The smell should actually be quite faint.

It's a super fluffy barrage of thin crystals. Should almost look like cotton candy or wool with how it settles. Funny-looking stuff. If you mix it with some sugar and water, it will have a taste somewhat similar to strawberries. I enjoy putting them in iced tea. It adds a little more flavor, and a little more thermogenesis to couple with the catechins in the tea.

Fluffy is correct...and you are so close to the design of something else we have (hmm...sweet, sticky, and fluffy..what could it be?)

The taste is really cool and unique, but the smell is subtle.

Do pillow fights give you negative points? (weightwatchers points)

Raspberry Ketone flavored SuperCarb Cotton Candy?

I would try it, but I don't have a cotton candy machine(which is probably a good thing).

I tried it a few years back with Xtend, but the artificial sweeteners would not form the correct crystalline structure.

I am curious as well whether supercarb will work.

Pretty sure they have a cotton candy machine for around $20 somewhere around here.

cotton candy has a specific crystal structure and melting point necessary to form it's cottony goodness. I wonder if supercarb could work.
