Soylent Complete Nutrition Meal Replacement Protein Powder, Original – Plant Based Vegan Protein, 39 Essential Nutrients – 36.8oz

Don’t like the flavor? Try using almond milk. (Or not!)
UPDATE: I’m upgrading my review to 5 stars because either I just got a bad batch the first time around or I’ve just gotten accustomed to the taste, but in any case, my shipment from Soylent arrived and as per my recommendation below I continued using almond milk to make my shakes — initially will all almond milk, then with half almond milk and half water. Well, today I decided to use all water again for the first time since I ordered my first tub from Amazon — and it tastes fine! Pretty good, actually, and barely any difference from using almond milk! Again, I don’t know if it’s just because the first batch was bad or I’ve just gotten used to it, but either way I’m only going to be using water from now on unless it starts tasting bad again.Below is my original review:When made as directed (with water), I personally found the flavor of the cacao variety revolting. It had a chalky, medicine-like flavor and a shiver-inducing after-taste. Finishing even just a 200 calorie portion was an unpleasant chore, and had I left it at that then I probably would have never ordered this again.However, on the recommendation of some of the other reviewers here I substituted water with almond milk (sweetened vanilla or original in my case, haven’t tried unsweetened yet) and that made a huge difference. It now tastes like thick chocolate milk, akin to the premixed ones you’d buy at a grocery (to clarify, I mean premixed chocolate milk, not premixed Soylent 2.0, which I haven’t tried). I also like adding blueberries, spinach and nuts when I can and mixing it the blender for added flavor, texture and health benefits, but in a pinch just the power and almond milk in a blender bottle is perfectly fine.I’m knocking off a star from my review because when made as directed on the can, the product is, in my opinion, practically unusable. However in every other regard I am satisfied with it. Within the past week or so I have used it to replace most of my meals, and to my surprise it actually is pretty filling. It saves me from the bad (and expensive) habit of ordering takeout, heating up a TV dinner or eating some other junk when I don’t feel like cooking. So for someone like me it has the added benefit of improving my overall nutrition — not only because the shakes themselves are nutritious, but because it has a positive effect on my other eating habits. Now when I do cook or eat out, I’m more conscious of making healthier choices.In the future I’d like to try the Original Soylent flavor to see if I can stomach it with just water, so that I can (1) reduce the cost per meal, and (2) reduce the amount of sugar intake.Final note: as others have noted, buying Soylent directly from the company’s website is much cheaper per pound. They offer free shipping with a fairly low minimum purchase threshold (twenty-something dollars I think), as well as discounts for enrolling in automatic subscription ordering. Shipping speed is fairly slow, however; from California to New York took a week in my case, so plan accordingly. I bought this tub of cacao from Amazon to hold me over in the interim while waiting for the 7 pouch shipment from Soylent.

Excellent meal Replacement: Tasty, Nutritious, and Convenient
I have been using the Soylent Complete Nutrition Meal Replacement Protein Powder in Cacao flavor and have purchased it multiple times, most recently on May 30, 2024. The rich, satisfying chocolate taste mixes well with water, milk, or plant-based milk alternatives, making it versatile and enjoyable. Each serving contains 20g of plant-based protein and 39 essential nutrients, offering a balanced intake of what your body needs. It’s incredibly convenient for busy individuals, quick and easy to prepare, and requires minimal effort. The texture is smooth and creamy, with no gritty aftertaste, and it mixes well without lumps. I have not experienced any digestive issues, and it keeps me full for several hours, making it a great meal replacement. At $37.95 for a 2.3-pound container, it provides good value for money considering the quality and nutritional content. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this product as it meets my dietary needs, tastes great, and offers excellent convenience. I will definitely continue to purchase this product and highly recommend it to others.

Es el segundo que compro y hasta ahora me funciona bien

La idea es buena, un alimento en polvo que puedes convertir en una especie de malteada. Tiene buen sabor, algo simple pero exactamente como lo esperaba, no muy dulce, no mucho sabor de ningun tipo. El problema es que a $1755 por solo 18 malteadas (1/2 cup) da aproximadamente $100 pesos por malteada.Si tomas en cuenta que cada malteada te da 10% de los requerimentos nutricionales diarios, puedes ver como no sirve como un reemplazo de comida.Obviamente estas cuentas ya las habia hecho antes de comprar, igual lo compre porque tenia curiosidad de probarlo desde hace algunos anos.
