Taste Test: Mamma Chia Raspberry Passion

Chia seeds are new to me. Apparently, chia seeds are very good for you and are a great source of Omega 3. That's pretty cool. I've already incorporated flax seed into my regular diet and I like that. So when I saw this Chia drink, it seemed a little ugly but I figured that hopefully, I'd like it too.

FYI: this was another one of my Whole Foods finds.

Verdict: Gross! Gross!! Gross!!! I couldn't believe how much I hated it. To be honest, the taste isn't even that bad. It's the consistency that drove me nuts. It's clearly incredibly seedy but it also has a gel-like consistency. It feels like you're drinking seedy jello. I even tried to use my teeth to sift through the seeds and just get the flavor. My efforts were in vain.  Yeah, I'll have to get my Omega 3 or my chia seeds in another form. Kudos to Mamma Chia for attempting to get us to have more chia seeds in our diet but there's gotta be another way!!!
