Tastebud protest against spirulina!

Date: June 29, 2010 02:01PM I used to be able to have a big spoon of spirulina in my giant green smoothies without any problem.
But, when I bought some more recently (same brand, organic), I find the stuff makes me gag a bit. I find the smell worse than before, and can detect the taste more more too. I've been using berries as the base for my smoothies (which aren't the best for green smoothies, I admit), so maybe that's the problem. It's like my tongue has finally said "No more! Enough!!!!!!" Is it possible to get a bad batch of this stuff? I mean, I remember it smelling kind of like some kind of rotten fish powder, but this time, it surpasses that! Re: Tastebud protest against spirulina!

I had a spirulina energy bar recently at a conference when there was no other more substantive raw food around, and I was like- yuck. I'll definitely try again, but if we don't like something we shouldn't eat it. Re: Tastebud protest against spirulina!

Date: June 29, 2010 05:31PM May be a bad batch or one that has sat in the sun too high heat.
But an easier way to take these algaes etc is to just put it in an ounce or two water, mix then consume. the liquid is so small that its over in a gulp or so, instead of having to drink massive smoothies and ruining the taste of other fruits etc. wheatgrass near put me off bananas, now i just put my wheatgrass in the above method  .Re: Tastebud protest against spirulina!
