How bad can this stuff REALLY taste...

I mean, seriously. Seems like everything outside of protein powders worth taking tastes like complete butt.

I'm about to do my first PH with Havoc and everybody's saying how bad cycle support tastes... I've got my peanut butter flavor waiting for me, and now I'm getting more and more concerned. I've stomached some truly awful crap because I didn't know any better, but is it REALLY that bad?

(I am currently taking 600mg milk thistle a day. Should I up that coming into the actual start of my cycle?)

But I guess, what's the stuff that's worked BEST for you, but tasted the absolute worst?

Everyone's tastes are different so for some it may not be as bad. Also, they said they've been working on the taste and the newer ones taste better.

My experience is it's fine mixed with Rocky Road whey, but chasing it with water is pretty rough. I've never had much of a problem with the hardest whiskey shots or chasing any other supplement powders, but this stuff makes me cringe.

I think part of it for me is it's such a fine powder that when I go to swish the water into my mouth, some of it blows back into my mouth and into my sinuses if I'm not careful. At that point it's really nasty.

Yeah, powder coming back up is the WORST. I imagine I'll just mix it in a tiny bit of water and shoot it. I *hope* taste isn't a major issue. I mean, it definitely won't be stopping me. I already paid for it anyway. The sample of NanoVapor I had tasted like vomit, but it went down. (fruit punch)
