The liquid isn't too bad but I find the little chewable pills truly revolting. They are both powdery and sweet and stick in my teeth...yuk.<BR/><BR/>My naturopath gave me some broader-spectrum digestive enzyme capsules called Similase, but I don't think they work quite as well as Beano, which is pretty fantastic IMO.Suebobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14652931599004264512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11155425.post-1112574398808748052005-04-03T17:26:00.000-07:002005-04-03T17:26:00.000-07:00As a vegetarian, I totally understand all the thin...As a vegetarian, I totally understand all the things on your list. Except beano. I've never tried it. The fact that it is liquid put me off. Does it have any taste?<BR/><BR/>About considering going back to eating meat, I understand that, too. I have been a vegetarian since I was 15 (30 now). I've always hated meat because of the texture, the taste and because I just think that it is disgusting to eat meat. Its not like I miss meat, but sometimes when I read about incredible, creative tasting menus or interesting exotic recipes, I sometimes wonder if I am missing out. However, after a few minutes, I remember that no matter how creative a beef/pork/duck/chicken recipe is, I still won't like it. <BR/><BR/>That said, I often get tired of having to ask so many questions when ordering (is this made with chicken broth, etc.)or having people make a fuss over what I will or will not eat. <BR/><BR/>When people ask me why I am a vegetarian, I just say it is a choice. Just like some people don't like brocolli. <BR/><BR/>I think what I hate the most is when people just assume I am vegetarian for animal rights, and they say "well, lettuce has a head. do you eat that?" or "your salad was alive once, too"<BR/><BR/>Sorry, did not mean to fill up your comment section with my rant. As you can tell, I feel strongly about this!nobodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04788789006476378839noreply@blogger.com
