Accelerade Carbohydrate/Protein Formula? Hideous, the Worst Tasting Drink Ever!
Wait, let me tell you what I REALLY think. It may make me ride up Mount Everest in 10 minutes, (I just tried it today so I'm not sure yet), but this stuff is the worst tasting drink I have ever had in my life. I bought a big thing of the lemonade-flavor powder yesterday when my local vitamin shop was out of Cytomax. They have been advertising alot in on Versus during the Tour, so I thought I would give them a try, support the advertiser, etc. I mixed up two bottles, and went for a two hour ride. This stuff tastes like two crushed up D-cell batteries mixed with lumpy buttermilk! No reasonable person could possibly say the lemonade flavor tastes even remotely like any lemon-related product. I would rather go slower and eventually get dehydrated than drink this stuff. Anyway, to be fair, it probably makes you invincible, but I really don't think I can try another ride with it...well, it cost a lot, so I probably will try it again, but I am not hopeful.
