Itās really not dreadful. Have you ever tried any greens? Iāve tried several brands as well as spirulina, algae etc. most of them are not good. Huelās regular greens are really good taste wise compared to others. The RTD are different altogether though because theyāve are carbonated and ready made, so quite unique I guess. These definitely donāt taste like regular greens and on the one i drank yesterday the flavours that mask the taste of greens are quite strong flavours.
I donāt generally drink carbonated soft drinks although I do like sparkling water and I have drunk Huel RTD vitamin drinks.
In my opinion they are better chilled although it doesnāt indicate best served chilled (or room temp) on the can. It does say should be drunk immediately but not sure why drinking it over the space of an hour or so would make much difference apart from losing a bit of fizz.
Iād definitely give them a go as you have them, but donāt just bin it after one sip. Greens do take a bit of time to get used to. Some people say that they didnāt like greens at first but after a while they start to like them and I guess thatās true.
Hi thanks John. Ive not tried any greens powders at all. I did once buy spirulina but hated it. Iāve still got some cans of the vitamin drinks which are now out of date but I will drink them eventually. Perhaps itās because I donāt like sparkling drinks. I will open a greens can today and see if I can tolerate it.
So as you know this isnāt our usual style, this is just to build a little bit of excitement haha! As for them coming loose, thatās probably not ideal!
Thatās the first complaint Iāve seen about the sweetness! I know at this point you had only tried one but iād be interested if you find the same throughout the other flavours.
Really glad you mentioned this. Itās such a new thing and Iām aware that some people are turned off straight away, just the moment you mention greens!
Well, as you probably know, as Iāve mentioned it quite a few times over the years, but I generally make my Huel powder meals with a 50/50 ratio of unflavoured as I find them too sweet at 100 percent. I think I also get a bit of the Stevia aftertaste going on with Stevia products (which I know not everyone does) and I also cannot stand the taste of aspartame which I can taste on just a sipā¦I know that doesnāt apply to Huel but thought Iād mention it.
