    I take Optimun Nutrition creatine. I mix mine with apple juice (can't stand the taste of grape). No taste other than the apple juice. Just get some good creatine and mix it with grape juice (or your personal preference) and go from there. You'll do fine. There is absolutely NO NEED for you to spend lots of money on Cell-Tech.

    I take MassAction (Creatine w/ other supplements) by MetRX. The Fruit Punch tastes amazing. It tastes just like Kool-Aid.

    I took plain old creatine for 6 weeks and saw descent results. But I bought this stuff right before I started taking creatine and stored it for a while while i took the regular creatine. The reason I did this was because it is thought by many that after a month or so creatine starts losing its initial effectiveness and your gians level off. Adding a delivery system is said to help stop this leveling off for a while and extend your gains. Initially the reason I bought this instead of using grape juice or apple juice was the added sugar can put on fat quick if you sue it wrong. The creatine mix I am currently using is less likely to put on the pounds. And I took my regular creatine with gatorade mix, which actually contains what im pretty sure is a small amout of dextrose, but its better than nothing for delivery.

    its your money
    just buy dextrose and measure out how much u want. a gram of dextrose isn't going to do much for an insulin spike

    Look, you taste-fixated primadonnas -->creatine monohydrate has no flavor and costs less than coffee. Dextrose has a sweet flavor and costs less than sugar. If you can't mix it yourself with a flavor you like, or you can't get through a measly bottle without bit$hing about you it hurts your sensitive taste buds, I can't imagine you actually do things that are difficult in a gym. Heavy squats make me want to too, but I'm not looking for an easier way to do them because they work.

    If you have $15 and the slightest amount of initiative, you can mix your own, it will last a long time, and it will taste however you want. If you need a fancy "delivery system" to make you think you're getting more bang, add IP-6, taurine, and Arginine, and pop an ALA capsule prior to consumption. If you need someone to do all of this for you, you will pay quite a bit more, and if you are a sensitive person, you may get stuck with a flavor you hate.

    BTW, the actijubes have gotten great reviews, but IMO they're expensive...cool looking product, though.

    What the "Bleep" died up the "bleep" "bleep".
    I didnt ask for your "bleep" opinon dip "bleep", I see no reason for the 95% of your post, which was "bleep", to be posted, so shut the "bleep" up unless your "bleep" perfect.
    I cant stnd the taste so if there is somthing that tastes better I want to try...
    Thank you for finaly answering though.

    Thanks again LAM and Iain for all your help

    It sounds good on paper but Im sure all creatine isnt made the same so there must be some difference in taste. No?

    IT only has flavor if it's bunk. Pure monohydrate is tasteless. If it's made poorly and adjuncts are introduced in the production process, then yes, it mayretain some sort of taste. I bought the cheapest Creatine Mono I could find by the kilo, and it has no taste.

    Exactly
    The only creatine that has taste is the ones from the zillions of manufacturers that are trying to lure you to buy something new by adding fancy marketing bs. They add various ingredients and tell you that it is all in the delivery system that they add that makes the creatine work all that much better. I personally don't believe it.
    But people keep buying it so the manufacturers will keep making it and charging more money too. I buy a big jar myself for like 10 bucks and lasts me for months. And like I said before.....NO TASTE

    It is all the same formula Spitfire when you buy 100% pure creatine monohydrate powder (to the best of my knowledge). It is all the other crap they add that makes the taste. Don't waste your money on it.
