    I dont want to spend the money on flax oil, olive oil is cheaper and still gets the job done, its a good source of mono and poly saturated fats. I was wondering about mixing it in with milk b/c milk already has a bunch of fat in it (2%) so would adding olive oil be too much.

    Olive Oil is fine but remember its only primarily Omega-6 FFA's. you still need to get your Omega-3's and 9's in.

    You've tasted dog piss? I don't mind it when I have to use it but I make my shakes pretty small and thick when I have to use it and just take it to the dome.

    You sure you're getting good Flax. I use Flax from the Vitamin Shoppe, always buy it cold. And I spoon it every night and it really has next to no taste for me.

    Serisouly anyone who has a problem with Flax, try the Vitamin Shoppe Brand and you'll be impressed. Goes down nice and easy.
