Anyone use flax oil as a nutritional supplement? I don't mean the capsules, I mean using the oil in food. I tried some in a smoothie this morning and it was nasty as all hell, made me want to barf. I'm open to ideas on what to do with it (assuming the oil isn't just rancid, which I doubt since it's a brand new bottle). If I can't find anything tasty to do with it, I'm gonna stick to making flax crackers and the like...

i've never used the oil, because the ground seeds work well for me. i put them in smoothies before and they have a mild nutty flavor.
and as far as pills go christine, fish oil gives you more omega 3s than flax oil because of the way your body breaks down the flax oil. and i don't think you're a vegetarian so i recommend fish oil caplets |
