I also tried making this with flax and protein powder (splenda, h. cream, etc. got it from a recipe someone posted and they claimed it was really tasty). It was down right GROSS! This is coming from the person who will eat ANYTHING with a little sweetness added in. I'm wondering if flax is just an acquired taste for some. I made flax pancakes once too and --ehhhhhhhh. Not really too great (cream cheese/egg pancakes are MUCH better!). Did you guys find when you first started eating flax that it took a while to get used to the taste. I'm starting to come to conclusion that maybe I just really HATE the taste of flax.
