Those congeal and clump severely the second they hit something moist, including the entrance to your trachea. I hiccupped last time I was getting ready to down some cissus and dam near choked to death on it. HMB I don't remember having this problem with.

    Seems to have the same charcoal taste/smell of most other herbs. Taste is so specific anyway. One person's dream meal will make another vomit. There are people who don't mind the taste of CEE, it damn near made me puke. But then there's CEE in Chaos and that tastes pretty damn good. I've ceased trying to figure it out. I just take the advice of the old drunk in Weird Science when he said, "Drink it!!!!"

    hey I can hang.. doesn't mean I have to like it... but I can hang.

    I agree.. CEE is way too bitter... I drink it solo so I don't mess up my precious protein shake.

    You should try swallowing dessicated liver powder. Man, that was a foul day I'd like to forget.

    A cheaper alternative to dessicated liver tablets. But it turned out to be useless since I couldn't stand to swallow any.

    I realy like dessicated liver tabs. You can take them with you everywhere. No shaker, no mixing no mess. Good quality protein always available.
