How do you feel about meal replacement options? (lemmy.ca)

These can be smoothies, bars, drinks, supplements, etc.

Is there something specific you look for (ex. price, ingredients, specific nutrients etc.)?

Is there a brand you like / avoid (ex. soylent, huel, hol food, etc.)

Edit:

I definitely don't recommend fully replacing your diet with them. I know some people use them instead of other processed food / fast food / skipping meals entirely, and that's the use case I had in mind for myself

I personally love my smoothie meal replacement, helps me not feel bloated or overly full and very easy to not over eat/drink. The one meal I wouldn’t replace is dinner though.

Which brand / type do you get?

I’m still kind of experimenting, but I have found the soy based or vegan ones are better because they blend better in water. I don’t really want a shake that needs milk to blend well, that’s just my want.
