Huel, Saturo, yfood etc

I was thinking about this on my drive home today
If the cost per meal is the same, I’ll definitely be getting it.
If the cost per meal is higher, I’m gonna be put off

Looks like they already had a launch event.

Thai Green Curry and Tomato & Herb flavours.

Interesting!

Yup, I was there! :joy:

Nice. Did you get to try both? Which was better?

I actually backed this on Kickstarter a few months back, and it’s set to ship next month. Encouraging that Huel are thinking along similar lines.

That looks really interesting - is not heard of it!

RE: Hot and Savoury Huel I found the Tomato and Basil a little bit ‘meh’ - by no means bad but it didn’t wow me. The Thai Curry was/is excellent though - not spicy enough for my personal taste perhaps but it’s easy to add that to taste.

They’ve managed to keep it to less than £3 a meal too which is excellent value for what you’re getting. Much more expensive than the powders but it’s a totally different product.

Back on this train and found a delicious tasting combo so far:

Yfood Choclate + half scoop of low calorie hot chocolate.

On another planet compared to Huel and not lumpy or anything - really impressed with this combination and Yfood in general.

I’ve moved from Huel to YFood and love the change. YFood is so much nicer to drink, the premixed shakes are lovely, like Yazoo. Even the powder is nice, although slightly grainier than the premixed.

I haven’t gone pre mixed, I am sure it tastes nicer but a bit more expensive and I can’t order the taster pack as I can’t have caffeine so no cheap way to try unfortunately!

Happy with the combination so far though it goes down very milkshake like and much nicer than Huel which I couldn’t stand in the end (black chocolate) ended up selling a bag on eBay to get rid of it!

I always buy Saturo from Amazon anyway, simply because it gets delivered faster. Although the bars don’t seem to be available on Amazon at the moment which is annoying.

Need to post referrals in here @edwardrobert:

I suppose the move to working from home hasn’t helped them. Easier and cheaper for people to make their own lunch than when people were office based

I just took advantage of the discount and ordered a few more 500ml.

I hope the original flavor doesn’t get discontinued. They already don’t make it in the 330ml.

I have to say, pound for pound, Saturo consistently has the best flavor for me across the RTD, the powder and the bars. And that’s coming from someone who has regularly used Huel, Soylent and Jimmy Joy as well.

Anyone got the new Huel shaker?

Looks much better. Might have to cop.

I’ve been on it for about 18 months and have never noticed any inconsistencies. Are you buying powder or ready mixed?

I have my own process for mixing the powder which works great for me but it does involve prepping in advance rather than on demand.

Haven’t tried yfood or Saturo but may have to at some point.

Meant to post the other day - local sainsbury’s has just had a bit of a refresh (finally widened the meal deal a bit to include more snacks/drinks options) and, separately, now stocks Huel chocolate drink.

Tried one, thought the consistency and taste were just a bit weird. Not horrible…but thicker than I expected, and just quite bland.

Am quite interested in having some sort of meal replacement for breakfasts/lunches where I’m in a huge rush, so might look into Saturo and Yfood.

Was about to pull the trigger on some Yfood (shame the hazelnut is sold out!) but it’s about a third pricier than Huel.

Not a big deal as a one off but will def add up over time.
