“It tastes horrible. Barely eatable. I have eaten shakes for ca 6-7 years now and have never tasted something so bad. Thereto it makes my stomach to blow up.”
“I´m pretty much at the start of my journey. I´ve ordered a sample pack with coffee shakes flavour, a chocolate flavour drink and salty caramel. The shakes are better than expected. I imagined that I´d probably drink them in a few minutes but you can divide the shake into many sips over a few hours without feeling too hungry. The coffee flavour feels good and doesn´t taste sweet. You kinda feel the need to chew on something after a few hours. Luckily the bar helps with that. It´s hard to chew after being in the fridge for a few hours and is bigger than I´ve expected. I feel like the shakes are still better in helping you to feel full but the bars are a great addition when you need a little bit variety. The salt-caramel bar was tasty but a little bit too sweet for my taste. But it´s definitely an interesting flavour in itself which tastes quite well.”
“Due to a hectic work and positive reviews from friends, I decided to give Jimmy Joy also a try. I have ordered the starters box and reordered the shakes. Chocolate is by far my favourite flavour, especially if you leave the shake 2-3 hours in the fridge to let it thicken.
The coffee flavour is not something I would recommend for coffee lovers. It tastes more like the almond milk in a cappuccino, than the coffee itself. A missed chance in my opinion. The banana is too sweet for me, but I like bitter flavours. So I assume if you have some of a sweet tooth, this would be perfect for you.”
“Yeah. I like chocolate the most, mixed with real banana fruit. Feels it good to my body. Relief no need to go to the shop (30 min) every morning and buy unhealthy breakfast foods. Just wake up only with 10 mins earlyer and make it and breakfastEAT it. :D”
“I'm no stranger to complete meal shakes, but of the ones I tried Plenny is my favourite so far. The 400 kcal portion is a low enough volume to drink in one go without feeling over-full, but is still a satisfying meal. It mixes really well in just the shaker, with no clumps (I used a British competitor and I couldn't drink it without using a blender).
I don't have much of a sweet tooth and was positively surprised that these aren't overly sweet. They are sweet, but not cloying and nothing worse than my typical morning porridge. The flavours aren't overwhelming either, noticeable enough, but lovely and natural. I'm actually really enjoying the fruity ones, which isn't normally the case when just flavourings are used instead. The use of real fruit in these is a massive benefit to me.
The texture is creamy, a little like a very fine porridge but without being gritty.
All in all these are great and a daily staple for me, easy enough to enjoy and not drink solely for the nutrition.
Highly recommended!”
