The flavor of flaxseed oil (FSO) really REALLY varies by brand. The butteriest are Omega and Spectrum. Barleans is kinda nutty. Health from the Sun is...um...how shall I put this?...interesting (they use rosemary oil as a preservative and to some of us, the flavor translates as harsh).
What you should know is that, except for Health from the Sun, all other recommended brands are found in the refrigerated section of the health foods. Do not, under any circumstances, purchase FSO from GNC because it's unrefrigerated and runs a much higher risk of being rancid and bitter.
PS. the tea thang? it's copper in the black teas that you are avoiding for now.
