Crushed Pills--Nasty

Can someone please give me a suggestion as to what I can mixed "crushed" pills in so that they don't taste as bad...after taking one the other night I almost thought it was easier to deal with the pain than to swallow that pill.

Motts apple sauce from Walmart, cheap and very low calorie. I only use a tablespoon or so.

Thanks Rojasanoll. I usually have that because my son loves applesause and I seriously doubt he'll miss a tablespoon. :)

Why not just break them instead of crush them. I was told pills the size of an m&m is okay.

you can add it in applesauce like rojo said or in drinks. i just pretty much do the mash to powder and chug it down w/water or my crystal light and deal with it. whatever works

I use those little cups of chocolate pudding. I take about two tablespoons out. Applesauce is good too but I found the chocolate to hide the powder taste more.

I was recently "filled" and tend to get stuck kinda quickly. I thought that crushing the pills--that don't come in liquid form--would be good until I get used to this restricition level.
