> [@Huel - is there hope left for me?](https://discuss.huel.com/t/huel-is-there-hope-left-for-me/4105): > > Hello there, folks of Huel (forgive the overly dramatic topic title) Got a bit of a dilemma. Received my delivery of Huel (Vanilla flavour) a couple of days back… and I’m struggling with the taste of it at the moment. I haven’t been able to finish a whole container of it as of yet. Drinking it is certainly not a terrible experience - it’s just tricky to push my quibbles with the taste of it all out of my mind. Tried mixing some blueberries and then some strawberries in with it but to no avail. … That was the very first topic I created on this forum. I kind of chuckle when I read that topic title as I prefer to drink regular vanilla Huel straight up nowadays. Eventually I’ve gotten to a point where I feel all the different flavours are just getting in my way really - tricky thing to explain. It’s still nice to have some variety though. You know what helped me for a little while? Drinking Huel using a straw. Something about the straw made the taste a bit more manageable during the early stages. Another tricky thing to explain in terms of exactly how the straw helped. Heh. I dunno. But, yeah, basically I chucked all sorts of flavours in (banana was and probably still is my favourite) along with a straw and tried to think happy thoughts as I drank. Heh. But, yeah, my only advice would be… don’t lose hope… because nearly a year ago I was in your position and now I’m building up to a little experimental spell of having Huel 100 percent. --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.huel.com/t/i-hate-it-advice-on-flavouring-to-help/7063)._
