I didn't find these too sweet, even right after surgery. They are more tart than anything else, but I never had trouble getting them down. Now, over three years post-op, I still buy them and chew 4 per day religiously for the total convenience of not having to mess around with dozens of pills. I wish Celebrate would release more flavours, and I wish there was a way to package them so I don't lose 2 or 3 per package to dust in the bottom of the bottle as they are quite chalky and brittle ( I don't really lose them but I wet my finger and eat it like a Lick 'em Aid lol!). Most importantly, they are working - my bloodwork is always PERFECT so I know I am absorbing everything I am supposed to. Overall, I love them and will continue to buy them! :)
