These can be smoothies, bars, drinks, supplements, etc.

Is there something specific you look for (ex. price, ingredients, specific nutrients etc.)?

Is there a brand you like / avoid (ex. soylent, huel, hol food, etc.)

Edit:

I definitely don’t recommend fully replacing your diet with them. I know some people use them instead of other processed food / fast food / skipping meals entirely, and that’s the use case I had in mind for myself

    I have a Soylent Cafe most mornings on the way into work. It serves both as my first cup of coffee and also a 400 calorie breakfast. It’s $3/bottle which is more expensive than making food at home but I don’t have the time to prepare a meal before leaving for the day anyway. It’s also much cheaper and healthier than stopping or going through a drive thru.

    My biggest concern is the amount of plastic as 3-4 bottles per week feels very irresponsible.

    The flavor is pretty good but I miss the original Cafe Vanilla variety. That was really good.

      Not sure how little time you have in the morning, but you could get the big Soylent powder bags and make them yourself. I’ve never tried it with coffee/espresso shots, but I sometimes make one with berries.

        I really should try that again. I had some of the original formulations of the powder but it REALLY didn’t agree with me, both in flavor, texture and what it did to my stomach.
