First impressions: Lovely!

 

Tastes oaty with a nice vanilla flavouring. A bit like a Kinder Bueno if anyone in the UK knows what that's like :)

Had a little bit tonight as a taster - yep I was surprised by how nice it was, I thought it was a bit like porridge with a small hint of vanilla.

 

I'll try and give this a go for the rest of the week as a lunch replacement and see how I get on.

Hey there. 

 

Sorry for dropping in, but I work for Huel and noticed this thread a while back because I'm something of a weird guy, so just thought I'd pop in and say if anyone has any questions about Huel I'll be happy to answer.

 

Kind Regards,

Gulliver

Yeah, what group discounts can you get members of Neowin for consistently promoting your product? :laugh:

 

Just kidding, thanks for joining and I'll be sure to ask if I have any questions or issues!

Same, I have just ordered a 56 meal pack and got my delivery confirmation.

 I don't own a blender, and didn't want to buy one for a cheap experiment, so I went the manual route: a glass and a spoon. Hint: don't go the manual route. 

 

My first impression was that it tasted like pancake mix, which wasn't pleasant. But the more I drank, the better it got. By the end of it, I wasn't completely disgusted, but it definitely wasn't competing to be the best meal I've ever had. Not appetizing per se, but also not puke worthy.

p.s. i avoid all processed foods. 

 

p.s. 2. "contains gluten" = a big no-no.

I tried ordering the bundle for a friend at work, which is probably why. 

I just received this bag from Amazon to carry my Huel in:

It is thermal protected, so it keeps it cold until lunch time, and can just be popped over my shoulder to carry. :)

@Jack W how do you like Huel?

It takes a bit of getting used too. I can't stand it when it is vanilla or plain, I have to put a flavouring in, but apart from that, it is good. It keeps me full until the end of the work day. :)

I think it's going to take a bit of will power to keep this going for a week or so until I get used to it. My head just can't get around not eating something, I kinda miss chewing :p

 

I don't mind the vanilla flavour at all, I ordered Chocolate and Mocha Flavourings with my order but stupidly only ordered two bags of the Vanilla instead of half and half so that should be an interesting combination.

What I do with milkshakes is spice em up with honey, maybe that helps with the flavour? 

I spice my morning shake up with Captain Morgan's, but then some people say I have a problem

Ah, good choice.

 

I think people who say you have a problem, feel like you are not sharing ?

Remind me of a character from a book who had a very unhealthy relationship with Captain Morgan :D

    • So, recently, I saw on the news (yes, on this website) that Samsung is introducing features where it can provide education using AI-powered sets, and because of this, I got concerned about whether the AI gives out wrong info during education sessions, causing controversies in the process. What are your thoughts on this? 
    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.

    • And he paid Joe Rogan $30M for podcasts. Terrible company.
    • I sure hope the AI does not give out wrong info during education
