Have you tried the latest version of Huel? It's much less bitty than previous versions. Ideally you also need to blend it in a mixer/nutri bullet type machine and leave it in the fridge for a few hours/prep beforehand.
No, why would it unless you're diet is currently that bad that suddenly eating a good diet gives you the runs?
You mean like plastic?
Your money, your choice.
Not sure, I stopped using it about a year ago think it was v3, I always blended it but I just didn't enjoy the texture or taste, happy with the proteinworks stuff though, actually look forward to having it after my run
I've had a bag of greens from protein works before with 7 broken scoops in it
Strange, I find it doesn't really have texture. Taste I can understand, a subjective thing.
Soy is a complete protein, there's no real advantage to a rice & pea mix over it. Even if some of them do just mimic the ingredients of Huel as you alleged, that doesn't change the quality of the product so why does it matter?I've had a bag of greens from protein works before with 7 broken scoops in it
Accidents happen and I knew about the plastic thing with Huel and it's shoddy - however my point is, there is a reason and effort put in behind all the Huel ingredients, the competitors don't go to that level of effort, they just mimic. One example is using rice & pea protein instead of Soy, I have no issue with either but it's the level of depth with what they choose which means they get my money at the moment.
On the back of the plastic issue, they moved sites and production and there are no recent reports of the issue to my knowledge - that's a manufacturing issue, not an ingredients issue however.
If another company made hot & savoury to the same quality and a cheaper price, i'd happily jump ship, Huel don't have my undying loyalty, there is just no alternative at the moment.
This says otherwise and that's just soy Vs pea never mind rice.

Ah didn't take long for the nonsense scaremongering article about soy.This says otherwise and that's just soy Vs pea never mind rice.
It's not just about protein.
Pea Protein Vs. Soy Protein - What’s The Difference | Vivo Life
They’re both sources of plant-based protein, but which one really deserves its place in your kitchen cupboard? Find out now.
If someone has an issue with taking soy protein, there are still plenty of much cheaper Huel alternatives that use a rice & pea mix instead. There is no scientific evidence that soy protein has health risks or is worse for you than rice or pea protein. The linked article says that pea protein has a better amino acid profile than soy protein, which is clearly false as pea protein alone (without rice) has an incomplete amino acid profile whereas soy is complete.

A comparison from the unbiased source of...Huel? Strange that they are only comparing MyProtein's BeNu and not Whole Fuel Blend as well which uses pea and brown rice protein.Straight from the horses mouth, but this will somehow be wrong as well i imagine.
"The first point to note is that both Huel Powder and BeNu include protein above the reference intake. Huel’s sources are predominantly pea and brown rice protein, yet BeNu is pea protein and soya protein isolate. Soy is one of the main 14 allergens in the UK, and therefore many individuals are unable to consume it, which Huel has been mindful of and excluded."
Huel Comparison to MyProtein
How does Huel stack up to the MyProtein BeNu range – a new selection of 'complete nutrition' shakes? It would appear that MyProtein BeNu has been marketed and positioned in a very similar way to Huel. While we believe both are good products providing convenience meals with minimal impact on the...
Again Huel go way above some of the others when it comes to carefully choosing their ingredients, and its reflected in the price.
Not really, you just pay less per bag the more you buy at once.
