If you like drinking fish oil...,

"If you like the taste and sensation of drinking fish oil, then you will like these little guys. Out of my 5 kids, only two will take them, and one of those only because he can swallow them whole without chewing. The "fish" are a plasticky bubble full of oil. When you bite into the vitamin, the bubble pops, squirting fish oil all over your mouth. I bought these b/c in the reviews, most people raved about them. My kids can't stand them, and I can't blame them. They are gross!"

"I was hoping to have a great review for these but my kids do not like them and won't take them. They have a kind of hard gel outer layer and you bite into them and the fish oil squirts in your mouth (not too bad of a taste but not good either) Then you have the shell left to chew on. I will keep looking!"

Omega Fishies to the rescue!,

"Originally, I purchased these for my kids. I know it is so important for them to get those Omega vitamins and these were a convenient, tasty way for them to do so.
What I hadn't planned on was needing them myself. Normally, I take an adult omega complex capsule myself. While I was pregnant, I had a difficult time getting those precious omegas as my taste buds became defective and forget trying to swallow that horse-pill! My kids' omega vitamin to my rescue! They taste pleasant and they are soooooo easy to take (just chew them up). They have no unpleasant "fish-burps" after eating them.
I love them! And my kids do too."

Had to throw away the bottle since they would not eat them after trying, total waste of money!"
