More and more I'm starting to like pills over powders. They are much more convenient to transport, and don't leave me reaching for something right afterwards to wash the taste out of my mouth. However, it can be a real pain swallowing 10 pills in one sitting, particularly when they're the big kind. Then the other day my sister was grinding up some medicine into my nephew's applesauce, and it made me wonder, is there's any disadvantage to just grinding them up and eating them with some kind of applesauce or pudding or something?
