Protein Works Nutrition Complete 360 Meal Vanilla Creme

My Experience

So I just recently got into the whole meal replacement thing, this review won't be as detailed, upcoming ones will be.

Protein Works stuff goes on sale pretty often, so the pricing is a big plus. I grabbed this 500g bag for £8 to give it a go and it was a pleasant surprise.

I've tried it a few ways: with semi-skimmed milk, soy milk, and just plain water. It definitely mixes easiest with water (no clumps), but the taste is much better with some sort of milk (small clumps). The vanilla flavour comes through more and it's creamier.

The vanilla flavour itself is fairly tame. It's sweetened with sucralose, so it still tastes sweet without all the sugars. The texture is really interesting. You get little bits from the oats and flaxseed, which gives it a nice whole-food feel instead of being a completely smooth powder.

It seems properly nutritionally balanced too. It's got a good mix of different proteins that release at different speeds, healthy fats from things like avocado and flax, and even includes extras like MCTs and Ashwagandh. Feels like a well thought out product that kept me full for 3-4 hours.

For the price, it's a solid 4 stars for meal replacement powder.
