How do you eat healthy food that you just CAN'T STAND?!?!

[Flexified]

Okay... I forced myself to eat a can of tuna yesterday and it was torture. I was gagging and trying to swallow at the same time!

Are there any methods that you can use to "mask" the taste?

Particularly for tuna.

[RockSolid88]

You have to dry the tuna out. Once its dry it doesn't really have a taste.

[wildman536]

i havent had Tuna in like a Yr.

MUSTARD!!

[AYung]

I think of happy things. Surprisingly it works!

[goth666]

miracle whip.

I'm having the same problem. Chicken, chicken, chicken and tuna, tuna, and more tuna. I'm just dealing with it. It's like getting into a habit. Once you start eating those foods day after day then it becomes just natural. Just look forward to your cheat day, that's what I do.

Good way's to help with tuna would be a little tabasco sauce or make a tuna melt with cheese. You can also have a tuna salad and a tuna sub with what ever veggies you like.

just think of yourself becoming ripped and getting every girl you can dream of while you eat it

[Nykau]

same proble, but with oatmeal. I have try the boiled with a lil of peanut butter( even with that, that taste ****). Any good recipe for the oatmeal??

[nunzie16]

lemon with tuna is delicous. It takes out that fishy taste. I can easily down 2 cans a day.

Tuna and BBQ sauce is great.

i swear you can put anything in a blender with some milk or water and some chocolate fat free sugar free jell-o pudding mix and it will taste good.

[Yogurt]

just put some fat free mayo into a bowl with the tuna(juice squeezed out of course) and mix it then eat it, it's good! please the best tasteing tuna is the starkist chunk light tuna in a packet.

To the original poster...is this your first can of plain tuna? If so, congradulations!! You are now a man!

I've been almost doubling my tuna intake lately...and I'm getting a litte sick of it just over the course of the past week. I found that drinking a little bit of water with each bite makes it easier to chew/swallow.

[Lonsdale_Lion]

Mix it up in a bowl with some fat free cottage cheese and down the ****!

[llamabob]

Don't freakin eat it.

I'm tired of these I hate cottage cheese or tuna threads. There are plenty of other options. Don't like tuna? Eat a damn chicken.

[Flexified]

I was just amazed at the amount of protein in the little bit of tuna.

And yes, that was my first can of tuna.

I hate cottage cheese, miracle whip/mayo, mustard and tabasco sauce.

I find tuna to taste great. Make sure you drain it though as the fluid the tuna is in is terrible for you and affects the taste. Mix the tuna with a little mayo and spread on whole wheat toast. It will taste great. Also you can shread cellery and carrots into it to give it a nice crunch. I love mine with cheese as well. If you want to make solid gains you will learn to love tuna as it gives you the absolute best bang for your buck price wise and is packed with protein.

Cottage cheese is another one of my favorites. My friend hated the taste of it so I suggested adding cinnamon to it and he loved it. Maybe cinnamon will make it more enjoyable for you but is your own personal preferance.

[lift4fun]

Don't eat anything that tastes good and eventually the crappy tasting stuff won't taste so bad...

[Yogurt]

just put it in your mouth, chew, and swallow it like a man!

[fishfry]

tuna and avocado is the best!

[Superdude87]

Yup. Very good combo.


Also, try different brands of cottage cheese. I usually get the stuff from Albertsons and/or WinCo and it tastes fine. The stuff from Fred Meyer is sick...really salty and bland. The taste varies by brand I guess.

[PODNickerz]

Yeah eating tuna by itself doesn't taste good.

Mix it with something next time like bread, pasta etc...

[Nile]

Tuna does get old after a while.. So far I have tried lemons, limes, salsa, and cheese mixed with it(not at the same time!).. It will taste fine for a while but I still can't really come to like it.

Cottage cheese taste good with yogurt or oatmeal, and get small curred also so its less noticible in your mouth.

After eating some of this stuff that steak i grill is 10x better

[Salford Reds]

Take cottage cheese with Splenda. With enough Splenda it can taste like cheesecake
