HuelReady-to-Drink | Strawberry Shortcake Meal Replacement Drink | High Protein Drink | Nutritionally Complete, Low Sugar, High Fiber, Plant Based, Vegan, Healthy | 22g Protein Per Bottle, 16.9 Fl Oz (12 Pack)

This is a VERY delicious meal replacement option! The vanilla is smooth and delicious (not even gritty at all, despite the plant-based protein) and also works as a perfect base to add to a morning smoothie or shake. I usually enjoy it by itself however. The lids are also interesting as they open fully yet have a little bit of a "flip-top" portion that prevents it from fully coming off. After shaking the bottle the liquid may pool inside the cap which can be annoying sometimes. The 35g of protein, 6g of fiber, and numerous other included vitamins/minerals makes this a great way to ensure you are getting what your body deserves, especially on busy days! The coconut sugar added is minimal, yet adds just enough sweetness to the shake. This is also perfect for those who hate the taste of Stevia. Furthermore, this makes sense price-wise (around $4.50/bottle) as you get both the convenience and nutritional value a single bottle provides. (I believe a single bottle is around a third of most peoples' protein goals.) I've been purchasing Huel for a while now and they've never disappointed me!

Huel Black Edition Ready-to-Drink has been a total lifesaver. I love that it gives me 35g of plant-based protein along with all the vitamins and nutrients my body needs. It’s not just a protein shake—it actually keeps me full and energized. Both the Vanilla and Chocolate flavors are super smooth and taste great, with no weird aftertaste or fake sweetness. It’s perfect for days when I’m rushing around and don’t have time to cook. I also really like knowing it’s made with real ingredients and is better for the environment. Definitely a go-to for me!

As a first-time Huel Energy Drink consumer, I found Huel to be a pretty good protein drink. One aspect of the drink that stood out to me was its sweetness. While it may be perfect for those who enjoy sweeter beverages, I personally found it a bit too sweet for my taste. That being said, the sweetness did not completely overshadow the drink's benefits.

Something I must say about HUEL is yes the product does help but the customer service is what I do not like, I’m not sure if it was because they were out of stock of vanilla but I placed an order for 2 cases and they stated it would be delivered, come to find out they never charged me at point of sale weeks passed and they said payment problem which my card was perfectly fine, they stated it shipped and they never sent out the product so I had to cancel and once again re purchase! I did same thing ordered stated it charged my card and then weeks pass and nope they did not charge me until week later choosing what ever card they want to charge instead of reaching out and stating there is an issue with payment. Next time reach out to your customer don’t just charge their default card by choice. Product may be good but customer service does not match. Just future reference for anyone who places an order- next time if you’re out of stock then say that but don’t waste someone’s time. I ordered a different flavor and had no issues order came on time, payment was taken out SAME DAY! But with this flavor it feels like a game was played.

Took awhile to arrive, but overall I’m happy with my purchase. they’re easy for a past workout meal when I’m busy, or some blended into a smoothie, or used as my milk in cereal for an extra nutrient boost

Update #2: I like the Vanilla better than the chocolate (that surprises me) and I am not getting the light shakes I was getting with the chocolate. Cocoa powder can sometimes mess with me, so I am thinking was the flavor not the shake.I think I like them. I drink maybe 1 a week because they are so pricey. It makes me wonder why I have tried ensure.... they look like the same thing. I might have to give ensure a try. I really wish these were made with Stevia. I can handle Stevia, but my stomach can handle only so much sucralose. It is sad you charge so much and yet you are basically Ensure... And why do I have to consume in 12 hours?-------------------------Update: ok the chocolate flavor and thickness is getting easier. I am still adding water to it to water it down, but it is drinkable to me.Blood sugar did ok the second time, but I had only half of it instead of the entire bottle. Jury is still out.I really wish this was made with Stevia and not sucralose :(. My stomach doesnt like fake sugars except it handles Stevia the best. So this might be a deciding factor as well.-------I was eager to get this so I am eager to review. The taste and thickness is not for the faint at heart. I found it much more tolerable drinking 1/5 of it, adding water to it, shaking it good, drink some more, add a bit more water, and then it wasn't so thick and it became more tolerable. It takes longer in the fridge to get cold than other protein shakes, so adding the cold water makes it colder if I didn't put it in the fridge early enough in the morning.I dont think it is too much liquid. I am not surprised it is thick. 400 calories is a lot to cram in a 16.9 ounce bottle! Not to mention all the nutrients. So for those who think this should be less liquid, remember, this is 400 calories. I am impressed they got it down to 16.9 ounces.I got the chocolate. It is not like other chocolate protein shakes but I didn't mind it.I have to try again, but the first time I had it I think it messed with my blood sugar! I am SHOCKED. I was shaky the entire day. The shake was the only change to my routine. I'm nervous to try it again, but I will give it one more try and then I will update this review. I am going to be SOOO bummed if this messes with my blood sugar. No other protein shake messes with my blood sugar. I realize it is a meal shake, but I didn't think this would mess with my blood sugar.

Flavor-wise, it’s subtly sweet with a hint of oat—great for meal replacement or post-workout fuel. Some find the texture thick or slightly chalky in the powder form, but blending helps. Overall, it’s a solid choice for clean, complete nutrition on the go!
