Bariatric Advantage calcium crystals

Does anyone actually use these?  I was looking at them on their website tonight.  They charge about $16 for 25 individual packaged servings (500 mg each).  As far as I can tell, it's basically the same thing as Upcal D, only I get 120 servings of that for about $12.  So $4 cheaper and almost five times as many servings.  I'm just wondering why anyone would buy the BA stuff?

It's not supposed to have any taste.  and I don't think it's 100 times more tasteless, because the Upcal D has no taste at all.

Oh.  Yeah, I meant the calcium ones.

Are the multi ones tasty?

I use the BA calcium citrate +D powder sold in a jar, not in individual packets.  I add it to my protein shake in the morning. I'm not sure how economical it is, but it sure is convenient and tasteless.

I actually take my calcium in three forms:
1.  I put the powder in my morning protein shake
2.  I eat two of the BA calcium chews after lunch and as my "dessert"
3.  I take two Kirkland Calcium + D pills in the late afternoon

That's 1500 mg calcium.

And that's about $14 for 60 servings, right?  A jar of Upcal D has 114 servings and is only about $13.  So a dollar cheaper for almost twice as much.
