Any suggestions on how to take these and not get the fishy burps afterwards? Foods to eat to stop that? or a brand that doesn't cause this?

    Most don't but there are orange flavored ones that people seem to like for that reason.

    I hate the fishy aftertaste/burp but I have had great success with Nature Made Burp-less fish oil (1200 mg). I really don't get any fish taste from them at all.

    I take Nature's Bounty maximum strength fish oil pills and don't have any issues. The market it as "coated to eliminate fish burps" which I figured was just a gimmick, but I haven't had any fish burps of fish taste and they are also odorless.

    Fish burps are an indication of inferior quality fish used. Take a look at Nordic Naturals. They are far better that just about anything else on the market and #1 for a reason.
