Whey Protein Isolate...GEL?!!!!!!

I received a sample of fruit-punch flavored Whey protein isolate in a squeezable gel pack in my Bulu Box for February. I just COULD NOT bring myself to consume it. I squeezed a little out and gave it a taste and I just can't see myself swallowing something in gel form. It reminded me of toothpaste. I will take my protein in bar/shake form!

Does anyone actually like this stuff? Bodybuilders? I just can't swallow gel! How do you stomach it? Sad I had to waste it but some ideas are better left untouched.

    I got a free whey gel at least a month ago and even carry it in my bag and haven't brought myself to eat it. I have protein shakes and bars every day though

    I've had one by six star and it was edible. Tried another kind and nope nope nope. Tried to hide it in a bit of Greek yogurt nope. But for me it wasn't the texture, it was the taste. I had a line one and it was too sweet/too sour... I also have a mango one but I'm scared to try it.

    That sounds like it would only be good for an emergency rations pack lol. I'd probably keep it in that in the car with other emergency items.

    Sounds a little like the protein sludge I make. Not like a gel, but maybe tooth-pastey. I eat it like pudding and it tastes like the batter for a frozen dinner brownie.
