HuelBlack Edition | Banana 40g Vegan Protein Powder | Nutritionally Complete Meal | 27 Vitamins and Minerals, Gluten Free | 17 Servings | Scoop not included to reduce plastic

I absolutely LOVE this stuff after I learned how to properly make it, especially the chocolate, vanilla, and banana flavors. Given the focus on actual science not trendy marketing, it’s the perfect on-the-go meal ONCE you learn how to make it bc it does like to clump and stick to things. The keys are (1) Get a WIDE-mouth blender cup with a removable lid bc you’ll want a large opening to pour the scoop into the cup (getting it into a small opening is a nightmare), (2) pour the water in FIRST and THEN pour the scoop (prevents it sticking to the cup sides), and (3) shake softly at first (otherwise will stick to top) but then HARD and learn to live with inevitable clumps. With two scoops I get at least 2 hours of feeling full plus the satisfaction of knowing I got a nutritionally complete meal.I always take a quart bag of huel (with a scooper and bottle) in my backpack with me when I travel bc it’s the perfect way to have a quick quality meal for cheap on-the-go (especially when good food isn’t immediately available), rather than scrambling for 30min and paying $20 to find and wolf down a meh sandwich. Also great for camping.

I've had some crummy protein shakes in my day. This banana flavor is really good, kind of like a grainy banana daiquiri without the booze. Now, my 5 stars is for the flavor and ease of mix. I just used a blender since I had already grown used to a blender with an alternative protein shake manufacturer before. This doesn't come with a scoop, which is insane considering the cost, regardless of being environmentally conscience. The scoop equates to about 95 ml or approximately 3/4 cup in the USA. You can purchase it on Amazon, just search for "Huel scoop". I'll probably create a subscription for this. If you consume protein shakes as a replacement for a meal, this is definitely worth it.

I just tried my 1st shake made from this product and was sorely disappointed! I measured out 89.6g on a jeweler's scale and added a measured 17 Fl oz of refrigerated water and placed the mixture in my "specialty shake blender" and it basically was tough getting all the lumps out, but managed after about 3 tries. The final concoction was too thick for a drinking straw and tasted like lightly Banana flavored cardboard. The "Tastes good" portion of the listing is IMHO a grievous misnomer! I'll play around with it some, but if you don't see an addendum to this review soon, you'll know the product has failed the Taste/Texture test! The taste while very mild is tolerable, the texture is a complete failure @ this time.

It’s quite thick. The flavor is ok. The package says the serving size is 2 scoops but the package doesn’t provide a scooper. I have to weigh the powder to get the correct amount every time and that is quite an inconvenience.

Haven't used protein powder in a while and wanted to pick it back up and figured something like this would be perfect for breakfast. Easy protein and vitamins. I remember actually loving the flavors that the cheap walmart powders had and figured this might taste even better (or atleast comparable).My first impressions are the bag isn't ideal compared to a tub and had to buy separate scooper. Instructions on bag are clear and easy though. Added 2 scoops to 17oz filtered fridge water and after vigorously mixing in a shaker bottle for a total of 3 minutes (more than the instructed 10 seconds), it still hadn't completely mixed. The flavor is so close to being undrinkable (it's what I imagine lightly banana flavored sawdust to taste like).I understand that there's a trade-off for quick and healthy but I don't think I can stomach it every day when made as instructed.I could see this being great in a smoothie or maybe using milk instead of water.

Delicious! I am not a fan of a couple of the Huel Flavors [coffee, strawberry short cake]. But Banana is great.

200 cal per scoop with a protein pastry or something satisfies the protein drink and solid food requirement for a really low cost.

lame. not hte end of the wold but no scoop is messy and now i dont kno2 the dosage
