“The shakes took sometime to get used to. After reading some suggestions online like adding fruit and using milk instead of water to make the experience better. So that's what i did for the wild berries shake, added some frozen berries, milk instead of water and it has been my lunch at work for over a month. I don't go hungry any time soon after lunch and it provides me with a balanced meal.”

“Consistency is good and the powders dissolve easily, there are no clunks and chunks. So far I like the caramel, but the coffee flavour was disappointing :( It doesn't really have a coffee flavour, so I'm mixing it with other things, either chocolate protein powder or use it in a banana shake. The salted caramel is good though, I like the flavour of that and I haven't tried the rest yet.”

“some tastes are very good, others less... but it's still easy to prepare and eat. This is enough for me until lunch”

“Choco tastes the best so far. I like it very much, especially with oatmilk. Peach is fine, but I will not buy it again. I wish you have a macha taste as well.”

“The meals are great. Vanilla and Lemon Pie taste the best. The scoop unfortunately was delivered partially broken, but I got it to work. I will likely buy again.”

“The texture is far superior to the standard powdered Huel that I have tried. The huel is thick and slimy, where Plenny is still thick enough to make you feel satiated but not slimy at all in my opinion. More similar to a thick protein powder. Very good, definitely won me over from Huel. Just wish there were larger bags, but the pricing is still comparable to other brands anyway.”

“A nice tasting and better experience than "that other meal brand"... If only the delivery was a little more on point, I'd be giving a much higher score!”

“I love the plenny bars usually. Was very happy the Cherry flavour came back in stock. However it has a very strong chemical aftertaste. Is this an issue in all batches? Bit dissapointed. Otherwise very positive about the bars.”

“I got bundle to have a try of everything. Whilst I haven't tried the dried food yet, the rest was overall very good. The powder lacks flavour a lot and I got banana milkshake to give it a flavour boost. The bars are very big and tasty. Good snack to have when peckish.”

“UPDATE: Customer service was great! Was initially dissapointed but as with any company, good customer relations is 80% of the experience. They seemed very knowledgable on the ingredients too! They also processed a refund no questions ask (I've had to pull teeth to get companies to do so before). I updated to 4 stars, the last star being the product I didn't like being subjective. (Appologies if this posts a duplicate review instead of updating :P) Unfortunately I wont be ordering again. **I'm sure people like the flavor**, but I didn't, and I fear that the undesirable flavor permiates the product line as a fascet of whatever primary ingredient it is I dont like. Do take a chance for yourself, but this is my experience solely: A quick [relevent] story: So I have been drinking Soylent-brand meal shakes since their version 1.3. Every new version of Soylents was fundamentally different and took adjustment but was never terrible. The Soylent company then released v1.9 which had a taste profile that was unstomachable. It was like the taste of vulcanized rubber + orange juice while licking a 9-volt battery. (Why the 9-volt? It shocked my teeth from being so sweet.) So, I switched to Plenny (unflavored "neutral") around 2018 and loved it! Covid happened so I took a break. Coming back, I ordered their new flavors as a substitute seeing as they no longer offer the unflavored offering. To my dismay, it too has this same flavor profile as Soylent! What the heck is going on?! I tried comparing ingredients but couldn't find the common denominator. I thought perhaps it was Sucralose, but I am very familiar with the stuff. I buy sucralose powder and make my own 'simple syrup' for my iced coffee (I'm a tinkerer by heart). I do wonder if the new flavors have too much sucralose for my liking?, and a skewing of an otherwise good flavor profile (Its the aftertaste). The initial taste is light and smooth. Oh! I have an expired bag of unflavored. I did end up making a shake with it after not liking the new flavors. I was lucky and the expired JimmyJoy didn't spoil (usually the oils go rancid in powdered food). But it tasted amazing! So I dont know... something is different that isn't overtly obvious by comparing ingredients. Anywho, I wish JimmyJoy the best! It looks like there is a pretty big market here and I love their adherence to trying to do more of a "clean label" product as opposed to competitors. Respect. As for me, I am regrettably moving onto making my own >_>”

“The taste of the Shakes is great but I personally didn't like the taste of the newer Mac&Cheese pot. Other than that I'm very satisfied.”

“Pour en avoir manger chaud, froid et cuisiné, la poudre JJ est franchement bonne même si à la longue, c'est forcément un peu lassant. J'ai testé la vanille avec ajout de protéines.”

“The salted caramel, cherry, and vanilla flavours are all super tasty and a genuine joy to eat. I think the almond and fig needs some work (sorry!), it's just not pleasant on the tastebuds. I tend to eat one bar a day, either for lunch or dinner and eat something simple and balanced in between. The service and delivery time we're impeccable and now that I know my favourite flavours, I'll 100% be ordering again!”

“I really love the packaging the Plenny Shake meals come in. They’re fun and make me look forward to having a meal. The gritty, oaty texture can take some getting used to, but the flavors help ease that acquired taste.”
