They aren't the best things in the world, that's for sure!
How are you preparing them? Everyone here recommends really cold water and ice at minimum. Beyond that, you can flavour however you want. You can do a search for Opti do find lots of great previous recommendations.
Personally, I've been making them with 200 ml of cold water, 200 ml of refrigerated brewed decaf coffee and ice. I use a shaker bottle.

Opti blended with ice and a tablespoon of orange Metimucal tasted great in both the chocolate and vanilla.

Do you mean opti shakes? If so, that never happened to me. I bought several cases of premier shakes at Costco before surgery and some of them went off though, I had to throw them out. I buy the smaller packages at Walmart in the US now and they've been fine.
