It tastes extremely metallic. I didn't really get any vanilla flavour from them, just metal. They're terrible lol

This is great info and great suggestions. I'm not at this point yet but when I am I will definately put these into practice. Why not make the Opti more enjoyable? It will certainly be easier.

I sent you a link to the Surviving Optifast thread on the Ontario Recipes forum which is full of flavouring ideas just a couple of days ago when you asked about Optifast, apparently you didn't read it. If the smell is getting to you, use a cup with a lid and a straw to avoid smelling it.
