Lately, he's been crafty with the pill. Just when I think he has swallowed it, I notice a white capsule stuck in his beard or in the corner of his lip or he plainly spits it out. I've tried peanut butter, cottage cheese, fruits, potatoes, and hiding it in his food. He eats around it.

I've heard someone swear by strudel and someone else by cream cheese of the brick variety.

I'm looking for other ideas on how to hide the pill. What works EVERY TIME?
I take a cherrio and put peanut butter on it then I stick the pill on there really good. It seems like Max just swallows it whole.
