Vanilla tasted pretty good but chocolate still does not go down! Starbucks Frappacinos were also a favorite--I could at least taste the coffee and they were cold! Practice stretching open your mouth so you can get the food in when you are ready to eat, too! After 4 years I still have problems opening my mouth wide enough to eat a thick sandwich. - Kris
