My Experience
From my original Amazon review:
When it comes to these meal replacement options, taste is a top factor. Nutritionally and price-wise, many are on a similar playing field, though yfood usually sits at the top end of the protein table. After trying Arla, Huel, and Bol, I find the yfood classic line is the best tasting of the bunch, thanks to its milk-based formula. It's smooth, creamy and sweet. They definitely have the taste and texture down, the flavours are also varied, with the Cold Brew Coffee also carrying a 100mg caffeine shot.
I use these for breakfast or lunch, usually on days when I'm hungry but don't really have an appetite. It's a healthy way to get a complete meal in your system without having to force down food, and it's far better than just skipping a meal or grabbing whatever bits are nearby. These are not meant to replace your diet, you still need those big whole food dinners.
The milk base is definitely the winning ingredient here, it's also lactose free for those with lactose intolerance. However, it is full of milk protein, so it is not suitable for anyone with a milk allergy. The naturally occurring sugar and fat content is also high, with each 500ml bottle packing around 22g of sugar and 15g of fat. It's not a problem if you have no specific dietary issues, but they are on the higher side.
My only personal issue is the sweetness. All the flavours are quite sweet due to the use of sucralose. While it’s an effective artificial sweetener, it creates a taste that, when combined with the rich texture, can feel like you're overindulging. This sweetness leads to flavour fatigue surprisingly quickly, ask yourself, how many times can you eat the same sweet cake in a week? It gives the strange impression of having something unhealthy, despite knowing it's nutritionally complete.
For these reasons, I'm giving the classic milk-based range 4 stars. It's the best tasting option with a fantastic protein-to-calorie ratio, but the intense sweetness might not be for everyone.
