The shake (banana) is quite a chore to drink, but it does keep me full. I add more water, but the powder still gets stuck in my throat. The chocolate "drink" is a bit better. Both kinda made me nauseous at first, but I'm getting used to it. The bars are ok. I've had most of the flavors (the apple strudel is pretty inedible, the chocolate, mocha, almond fig and salted caramel are much better). I also received 6 free pots of the tikka masala bowls...I can't eat them (the flavor is kinda vomitty). I wish they would have sent a variety of flavors instead. I might continue with the bars and try another flavor of shake once I'm finished with my starter box. I really like the concept and variety, but wish these all tasted better/had better texture.
