Yummy and nutritious
*Edit February 2016*They changed it! I've been buying it for years, and now they changed it, for the worse. It now comes with a white screw on lid instead of yellow and tastes awful! Gone is the chocolate/cacao taste, its been replaced by an an oversweet, slightly salty taste. It no longer thickens like before and is now very difficult to drink. I no longer recommend purchasing this.*Original review*This is not a milkshake, it does not taste like one. It is a healthy meal replacement.... You have been warned!I personally like the taste of this, so does my son. My other half and daughter however despise it. They can't understand how I can drink 'mud'!It's grainy and can become gloopy if left for too long before drinking (if you make this mistake just add some water and mix again) I use a blender bottle to prepare this and without the ball I think it wouldn't mix well because the powder tends to clump in the bottle. I like this best with raw milk and it fills me up without any preparation. I would recommend that you try the sachets first if you are unsure as that way you aren't stuck with something you can't stand.

Best Quality Meal Replacement Powder!
I love this stuff! I know others have complained about the flavour, but it tastes fine to me, mixed with my koko (coconut) milk or blended into a smoothie. It is full of mega healthy ingredients so it does not have the super sweet and artificial flavour that some people may be used to. However, there are big benefits from the superb ingredients which provide long lasting energy and nourishment and help to heal the digestive tract with all the enzymes and probiotics. I've noticed my skin is clearer and glowing when I take this, similar to when I drink a lot of fresh fruit and vegetable juice. It's really convenient too for when you have missed a meal or are in a rush! If you're looking for something really beneficial for your body and health, then this is it, but if you are concerned about the taste and used to sweeter products, then probably best to either avoid this or to experiment with mixing it into a smoothie.

I love this product!
It does not get much better for me, I am in a plane 3 to 4 times a week, in different places and if I were to eat what is available to me quickly, I would be only eating the junk sold in airports and on the go, this is my life line to a healthy life, always on my side in my suitcase and in my office and at home, if I feel hunger and need a snack I grab this and make a shake or if I have time I mix with water and a banana and throw it in a blender. Tastes a bit chalky but it is all natural and raw, I can deal with it not tasting like a chocolate shake!

A big warning to everyone...this may be deceptive and unhealthy!
The ingredient list makes it look like there are many many ingredients; however it is likely that the powder is by far mainly protein powder with a very small and possibly insignificant amount of fruit vegetables and other healthy things.Each 33g scoop has 20g of protein. The main ingredient is pea protein. 27.5g of pea protein would provide 20g of protein. However, it is likely to be slightly less Han that as the other ingredients will have some (but not a lot of protein). Let's be generous and say the other ingredients are 10% protein. This means we are probably getting around 8g in each scoop that isn't just protein powder. This is very small for the amount of money paid. I can't see how there can be a meaningful amount of omega 3 in it when there aren't enough grams of linseed in it.There is another problem in that 2 scoops provides 80% of your daily protein needs but less than half of your fibre needs. Eating too much protein is unhealthy, yet once you take 2 scoops you have to somehow eat most of your daily fibre in your remaining meals whilst only being able to eat another 20% of your protein allowance. This isn't possible and peaople will end up eating too much protein.In conclusion the powder is deceptive in that it makes you think you are getting large amounts of healthy compounds, when in fact the amounts of those ingredients are very small. It is also unhealthy in that it's protein content is simply too high, which is worsened by an unevenly low fibre content.I asked garden of life for the quantities of each of the ingredients but they said they could not reveal this. They did however state that the first ingredient (pea protein) is the main ingredient.

Pleasantly surprised
Well ... on it's own (1 scoop with 8oz water) is drinkable, but very sweet. I love sweet, but that is a strange sweet, very intense.So I experimented a bit. I now blend 1 scoop with 12 oz of water, together with a small banana and a few blueberries (or any other fruits I have at home). That's actually really nice and has now become my breakfast. Filling, nutritious and quick to make.Also, as it is quite chocolaty and sweet, it will hide greens perfectly. Will try that in a few days.So far I had no side-effect. I have tried other vegan meal replacements, which made me very bloated and gassy.Btw, I have tried their vanilla chai at first, which I just couldn't get down at all. No matter with what kinda fruits I tried blending it with. It remained overbearingly artificially chemically - don't know how to proper describe it. I usually love vanilla products, but had to bin the box.

Great healthier alternative, excellent price
Was looking for a cheaper alternative to shakeology but with all the good stuff . Read various reviews and this came up . It's lower in sugar too and is high in protein. Used it in my active blender with milk and half a banana and some blueberries and it tasted really nice. Very filling and will definitely buy again .Couldn't find a scoop ,maybe it's somewhere at the bottom, so used another scoop so I'd used 20g instead of 35g but found that was enough for me.

Smooth transaction and product arrived in perfect condition.
Mix 1 level scoop (scoop included) with 8 oz of water. Delicious with unsweetened almond milk.
Safety Warning
Keep out of reach of children. Store in a cool, dry place. Do not use if safety seal is broken or missing. The density of the powdered ingredients in this product naturally vary from lot to lot and require space in the container at the time of packaging. Over time the powders settle, causing the container to appear less full than when it was first packaged. This product is sold by weight and not by volume.
