My daughter takes them with applesauce. She just got switched from Pancrecarb. We have not had this issue w/ applesauce. I got lucky and she has always used applesauce with no problems. Have you ever tried the flavored applesauces? They have many dif ones <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif" border="0">) Hope it gets straightened out though! Good luck!
