Huel Ready-to-Drink Meal | 8x500ml 20g Protein | Banana

I've been buying Huel ready to drink since it first appeared on supermarkets and online. These might seem pricy at a glance and they aren't cheap (around 3 quid a bottle), but for each bottle you're essentially getting a good meal down you and easily especially if you are having trouble with eating normally for whatever reason that might be. Each bottle is 400 calories and has a long list of nutrients and vitamins that you get alongside that. All the flavours I have ever tried (though have not tried most) have always been pretty good, I think the banana flavour especially is actually NICE but usually people expect these drinks to taste off or weird I just do not find that the case at all. The do have a slight thickness to them which also helps make you feel abit like youve had food which is why I much prefer these over products like Fortisip which can be slightly cheaper per "meal" Fortisips dont contain balanced nutrients like Huel does as Fortisip and Ensure etc. uually focus specifically on protein or fibre etc for example Fortisip Protein contains 300ish calories, decent amount of protein but NO FIBRE etc - Huel is the all in one thing, and it isnt tiny either. I would literally be dead if Huel and these products in general did not exist as at times I have unfortunately had to use them as only source of food 0- this is not what they are designed for in regards to replacing any and all other food intake but there have been months where me being able to drink one or two bottles of huels each day has kept my body acually going and I didnt starve to death. One thing I really wish Huel would do is look into making a "Huel Compact" version of this exact forumulation but maybe sold in packs of 12 not 8 and reduced liquid down to maybe 300ml maybe sacrficing maximum of 50-75 calories to get all the same nutrients and keeping same taste but just smaller and easier to drink (less thickener?). My 2 penceanyway. Thanks for existing Huel!

This is just a fantastic product. Yes, reports say the lead content is dangerous (google it) but when I contacted Huel they went through the report and responded. There's a youtube video by a GP also heavily criticising it and again, I contacted Huel and again they rebutted it. It tastes great. Yes, it's cheaper to get the powder but this is just so convenient. If you carefully shop around you can get this for £2.60 and at that price it's way cheaper than coffee in Starbucks and much healthier. One point to make: as it is liquid calories it is possible to put on weight quite easily so you have to be careful that it is a replacement meal not a complementary one.

There is a spectrum of banana flavour in the world of food products. At one end you have an actual banana. At the other end you have that aggressive synthetic banana that tastes like a chemical engineering student’s fever dream. Huel Lite sits somewhere sensible in the middle, which is to say it tastes like banana in the way that a reasonable adult would want something to taste like banana. Recognisable, pleasant, not trying to start a fight. The Lite version is doing something quietly impressive, which is making a meal replacement feel like a choice rather than a compromise. It is filling without being heavy, sweet without being cloying, and nutritionally it ticks enough boxes that you can drink it at your desk and feel like someone who has their priorities in order. Whether that is actually true is between you and your life choices. Twelve bottles arrive, they disappear at a reliable rate, and you find yourself ordering more without any particular internal conflict about it. That is the highest compliment a functional food product can receive. It is not exciting. It is just good, and good is underrated.

Really enjoy these, they taste great and have low sugar.

They taste good. And was a good price

Tasty, quick, easy- not much else to say. I prefer to Bol as the last 3 batches I bought had weird lumps in (gross).

The Banana flavour is great, not so nice is the Strawberry, need to return if possible

Great tasting meal replacement.

Tasted pretty good (banana) but for whatever reason this product made me slightly bloated. Hard to believe this product claims to be lactose free but take another look at the ingredients. If dairy does not bother you, it’s a great product for a meal replacement
