  • I've been exploring alternatives to Huel Meal Replacement Shakes - this week we're doing a Y food review, looking at the This is Food meal replacements - There are 3 variations, Y food Drinks, Y food Bars and Y Food Powder. I tried the Powder and the drinks, in Crazy Coconut and Cold Brew Coffee from the Y food Starter Pack, and the Apple and Cinnamon Y food Powder. I looked at the textures, the flavours and ease of use.
    There are no referral links for this, but the website has a pretty good £5 off your first order deal, worth checking out...

    Hi mate, just come across your channel and really enjoying the varied content. A bit on the lactose-free bit. Whey is just a protein found in milk made up of amino acids. Lactose is a disaccharide sugar found in milk made up of glucose and galactose. Both are found in milk, but you don't find any sugar in protein as they are different macronutrients. Hope this helps.

    You can buy the bottles at most supermarkets where I live and my neurodivergent, Ed recovering and depressed friends and I are big fans cuz if we don’t have energy or brainpower to force ourselves to cook a proper meal or even consume anything it’s easy to drink and it doesn’t give us sensory icks like some meal replacements do.
    Genuinely it’s a great product to grab on the go or on your way home after a long day so you don’t go to bed without dinner.

    I've subscribed to yfood's replacement meals. They (500ml bottles) are awesome. I don't care for the packaging or that the bottle looks like yazoo. For me it's about doing "what it says on the tin" . And this delivered on all fronts. It's easy, it's quick, it stores unrefrigeratated for months. Tastes amazing (crazy coconut, fresh berry and crazy banana are my favourites) especially when chilled! It's lactose free (removed from the whey) and Gluten free I've nothing bad to say about the product! Go figure. Try it for yourself.

    A very expensive Yazoo milkshake maybe?. I have been enjoying Queal so much! I'm lactose intolerant but have discovered that whey protein on its own causes me no issues. I'm converted from Huel. The only Huel I enjoyed was the unflavoured one and it sort of defeated the purpose to add my own flavourings and sweetener. I also enjoy that Queal has the vegan and diet options! 700 calories per meal seems a lot to me but you can easily divide the bags down into four 500 calorie meals. Loving this series!

    • @LittleTipple
      @LittleTipple  Před 3 lety +1

      Very expensive Yazoo! What is the other brand that I can’t think of the name of? There’s definitely another one! I think I’m converted away from Huel for the sweet shakes - definitely enjoying the hot and savoury, but there’s just more interesting stuff out there for the sweet! I miss Queal, need to order some more soon! I love the idea of breaking the bags into 4 rather than 3!

    Dude, yfoods in Down Under is from "You foods"... y = "you" . You repeat yourself many times as not understanding the y in yfoods. Its short for YOU-FOODS. Getting caught up in the name of the product and basing a critique with your "i just dont get it" takes away from your review. One doesnt really need to "understand it", just move on and test if the product substance is good or not. Sheesh.
