I don't use diet/health products.
However I have tried energy powders for long distance rides and the worst was Sustained Energy. Just ... no. Nasty.0 -

Honestly, I usually love them, but I've had 2 pints that tasted horrible for some reason. You might have been unlucky (I emailed them about that issue and they completely missed the point though).1 -
Vega sport protein powder
Fat free ceasar dressing1 -
Quest protein chips. Salted sawdust, I swear.
Yes! They don't have potatoes in them. So, they don't have the texture of potato chips. It's more like fibrous sawdust chips with a ton of salt. I was supremely disappointed.
The apple pie Pure Protein bars are also disgusting, as is Artic Zero.
Dasani sparkling water. So fake in flavor, and it's just gross.1 -
Pea protein powder.
Awful. Just awful.4 -

Arctic Zero - I found it had a slimy texture in my mouth.
Fat free cheese - it doesn't melt properly. I want my grilled cheese sandwich!2 -

I was seduced by the low calories, but tastes gross and artificial to me. Threw it out. Bought full calorie yogurt instead.
I agree totally. Ugh, I thought I was going to be sick after eating 1/4 of one. No freaking thank you.
Coconut water was also completely nasty to me. I tried it at Costco as a sample and just stood there a moment holding it in my mouth as I could feel my face slowly twisting into some sort of horrified look of disgust while the sample giver was telling me how you could buy a case of 12 for $15.99. I'm literally making the face just typing this and reliving that awful moment.
Another bad life decision was trying to use spaghetti squash as pasta. Just no.3 -

No calorie peanut butter? Oxymoron right there, and waaay to good to be true or tasty

Gosh, I tried that as well. Horrible taste. Maybe the fake sugar. I went right back to the real stuff and just made sure to fit it into my overall calories.0 -

Oh, yeah. Forgot coconut water. Tastes like BO smells.
I hated the normal coconut water I tried. Gross!
I've tried BODYARMOR before. That has some coconut water in it and its not bad.0 -

PB2 is not very good on its own. I add it to my protein shakes to give a little extra flavor.3 -
Far as I can remember, that and a can of Dasani sparkling water are the only carbonated beverages I've hated to be honest.CooCooPuff wrote: »

Cauliflower
Quark
i'm laughing because for a moment i thought the second item here was just your comment about the first one.
the more i think about it the more the list grows. place of honour goes to vega one 'plant-based' protein, though. i was super-hungry when i bought a small taster pack of the stuff and that should have been enough to let me get it down. i just couldn't. spent the rest of the day hysterically re-rinsing my blender bottle as well, just in case a few micro-grains still remained. there was this terrible association with certain kinds of baby poop. and tofu is no. it's just NO. i can't understand why people say it has 'no taste' or that it absorbs the flavours of what it's cooked with. to me there's this ineradicable chemical taste that gets through everything.
the others have just been more bleh or uninteresting. hemp protein powder tastes like drinking henna. flax seeds turn bitter so fast they're not worth rat race of trying to drink the shake fast enough to beat the half-life. greek yogurt just tastes like spackle to me. and now that i know it's just yogurt without the whey i can't see the point either. to me it makes no sense to pay three times as much for something that doesn't have the very thing i'm also buying to add to my shakes in a powder format.
there was some nasty kind of 'raspberry' flavoured protein bar coated in 'chocolate' which was actually so nasty that after a while i got sort of morbidly hooked on them. i knew all along they reminded me of something, and finally i nailed it when i was patching a bike tube: glue. the kind of glue you're not supposed to breathe in too deeply around.

As he started chewing his, I was hit by an incredible horrid taste of rancid ostrich( fat?). Oh yuck. The driver wasn't pleased to hear to hear my discovery. We were driving down the road(wrong way round) at 100km!
to be fair, 'rancid' isn't part of any normal biltong makeup. but i only tried ostrich once and found it too vinegary. imo only properly red meat works with biltong. everything else tastes too pale to stand up to the pickle and brine.0 -
Kale chips. They tasted like seasoned farts of themselves. Which was disappointing because I had some overproductive kale plants at the time.
Shirataki noodles are awesome in sukiyaki. I really can't imagine eating them as a substitute for wheat noodles though. Way too fishy.2
