Hi:

Not sure why you don't like mixing it with liquid. A lot of folks

complain about Questran, I don't know why really. I take 3-4 packets

a day currently.

I mix it with water and drink it with a meal. Usually cereal

in the AM. The 'key' is to mix it in a shaker. I use a used soda

or water bottle, put water in it, then the questran, then shake. It

mixes instantly and isn't bad at all.

Don't bother trying to mix it in a glass with a spoon unless it's your

only choice. You'll be there for 10 minutes as it sticks to the spoon

and the glass and you'll be drinking 'clumps'.

Shaking is the key. I don't understand why, but about 2 seconds

of shaking mixes it well.

I've never mixed it with 'food' since it doesn't really bother me. I have

mixed it with OJ, water. Some folks mix it with apple sauce.
