3.0 out of 5 stars tastes good but has ala, January 7, 2010

My kids love these supplements, even my picky eater. (I think they taste fishy). However, the Omega 3 contained in each pill is comprised of ALA, DHA, and EPA, in that order. ALA is likely useless; the stuff we want is DHA and EPA. This item does not state how much ALA is in each pill compared to DHA and EPA. ALA may be broken down in the body to DHA and EPA but in very small quantities. It is likely that this pill is mostly ALA, and I am going to stop giving it to my kids.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nummy Nummy Nummy I Got Fish In My Tummy, November 21, 2010

There's a lot of negative reviews for these, though personally I've noticed no "fishy" taste-- and I hate fish. I wonder if maybe different batches have different aftertastes and quality. I really enjoy these and though I often skip my multivitamins... well let's say that the ones in gummy form are ingested more often.

I honestly find them quite tasty, though I suppose the taste is... "different"? I haven't tried to give them to a child (yes, I'm an adult who takes fish-shaped gummy vitamins), and I know children are often picky, but so am I. They're convenient for me-- no water, no giant pill to swallow, no fish burps (although I never had one when I took gels either).

One of the hardest issues with supplements is you don't always know when they're working. So, I have no idea whether to say these are effective. But if you like the taste and don't mind spending a little ka-ching, then these are pretty good. I've only seen them in the huge bottles, so it could be a gamble, but if you don't like em, send em my way. ;)

3.0 out of 5 stars Doesn't taste any better than the CVS brand, October 9, 2009

By

This review is from: L'il Critters Omega-3 - 180 Gummy Fish (Health and Beauty)

I bought the CVS brand first since it was right down the street, but when my 4-year-old said they were icky, I decided to do some research and find some better tasting omega 3 supplements. I ordered the Lil Critters Omega 3 gummies, and they taste the exact same as the CVS brand. I was able to trick her into liking them more because I kept saying that I ordered her some good tasting gummies, and she eats them, but she'd really rather not. And I wish they could fit all the omegas into just 1 gummy. Getting a kid to eat 2 of something they don't like is much harder than just 1!!!
