“Sorry, but compare to Huel I'm not satisfied at all, the flavours of all plenny shakes are all bad, and my tongue is itching after drinking. I'm sorry but after trying 4 flavors of plenny shake I'm sure I won't buy it again.”

“Bland flavours, powdery tasting shakes. The bars all have the same weird after-taste. Hot meals are the only redeeming product. QUEAL is much better.”

“Long time powder meal user and not a fan of these. There a bit cheaper so I can forgive that less whole ingredients are used but the flavour just isn't there. They all taste kinda doughy/chemically and the flavours that are suppose to be there are more like distance hints. Even something like chocolate tastes only remote of chocolate. Additionally the shaker does not stay closed properly which is just inconvenient. It's a nice design though.”

“I tried Jimmy Joy after using another similar product for a year but hearing that Jimmy Joy shakes mixed and tasted better. Unfortunately the latter has not been my experience. I find the fine powder that covers your teeth when drinking off-putting (sort of like the feeling after eating cooked spinach). The vanilla flavor should be named “coconut” instead; I don’t like coconut. So I regret my order and will likely not finish the bag.”

“Hi Team, Thank you for your email. I have to say I am a bit disappointed with the order that I have received. I tried two other flavours from my friend and I was amazed how nice they were but with the risotto and tikka masala I am very disappointed. I gave it away for free to some random people while I was camping. Do you have any other recommendations of the flavours? Or how can I try what is the best for me without buying the whole package? I will really appreciate your response. Kind regards, Ula”

Hi there! Thanks for leaving the review, I see we have luckily already been in touch with each other for the refund within our money-back guarantee. For others reading this, the grain in the texture will be present in all our Shakes, it comes from the oats they are based on. The Plenny Drinks are more like milkshakes when it comes to the texture, so that would be the recommendation in that case. Thanks for giving it a shot once again

Hi Angel! Sorry to see your 2-atar review here after our contact before through email. We spoke about the 30-day money back guarantee then before your order but I have not seen a contact from you about this after. As you did share the order details, I was able to refund you for the Banana Shake, you will have that refund back shortly. The reason you note, flavor and texture, would make me refrain from advising to try others, maybe the Bars could be something for you, but the Shakes will all have the same texture, a bit of a grain to them, because of the oats they are made with. Thanks for giving it a shot and leaving your feedback, we appreciate it very much. Sorry it did not work out on the Shake-part.

Hi Amanda! Who told you!?! ;) Not us, I checked and we have not been in touch with each other yet. Our Shakes are based on oats, that will made for the grainy texture. We are very sorry to hear it even got you sick, of course you need to not apologize for letting us know this, it is important feedback. I would offer the Plenny Drinks because those are more like milkshakes when it comes to the texture, but if you react this strongly to the products, of course I will not. Instead, thanks for sharing the order details with your review, I have gone ahead and refunded the order for you. The refund will be back with you shortly. Apologies for the inconvenience it resulted in, we do appreciate you trying it of course.

“If I hadn't bought another brand first (Jake), I might have liked it. However, when compared to Jake the taste is less pronounced, and hence less pleasing as a tastefull shake. 300 milliliters per shake is just not enough to keep a full feeling for long enough. And -once again only compared to Jake- the scooping method is a hasle, messy and does not give me the consistency I want from shake to shake, day to day.”

“The shakes I ordered (pistachio, coconut) are grainy and taste like cardboard was put into a blender with some water. I had chosen JJ as a replacement for another company because I no longer wanted to support their marketing-choices, but I won't be ordering again as the shake isn't enjoyable in the least.”

Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m really sorry to hear that the Pistachio and Coconut shakes didn’t meet your expectations. It’s disappointing to hear that you found them grainy and unappealing. We aim to provide a smooth and enjoyable shake experience, so your description of the texture and taste isn’t what we’d hope for. It might be worth checking that the shakes are blended thoroughly, as sometimes this can impact the texture. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us improve our products. We’d like to make things right for you, so please let us know if you’d prefer a replacement or a refund for the shakes. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we’d love to find a solution that works for you. Thank you for giving us a try, and we hope we can make a better impression in the future.

“I think the taste of the Plenny bars and the Plenny shake (strawberry) are very underwhelming. I’ve tried to mix the Plenny shake with water and also with water and oat milk mixed - and the texture is powdery and not very pleasing despite the length of shaking. The bars are too big and don’t have a good taste or texture. It feels like eating a brick of hay. The Plenny pot (Satay noodles) taste good! I would also have appreciated more updated on the delivery and fewer marketing emails.”

It sounds like you've had a mixed experience with our products, and I appreciate your honest feedback. Since you enjoyed the Satay Noodles Plenny Pot, you might like to explore other Plenny Pot flavors that offer a variety of tastes and textures, such as the Mushroom & Buckwheat Risotto for a creamy and savory option or the Tikka Masala Lentils for something with a bit of spice. For the shakes, if the texture felt powdery, trying a blender instead of shaking by hand could help create a smoother consistency. Also, experimenting with different liquid ratios or adding in some fresh fruit could enhance both the texture and taste. Regarding the bars, since you found them too big and the texture not to your liking, you might prefer our drinks or pots for now, which offer a different eating experience.

“I'm a long time Huel user, and I love it a lot. Decided to give Jimmy Joy a try, since it's cheaper and variety is always good, but I was disappointed. Shakes and pots are bland and tasteless, drinks taste fine but aren't that filling (I was sooo hungry after drinking them), bars feel like you chew on dry oats, and don't taste that much better than dry oats My concerns about shakes, pots and drinks may be a matter of taste, but bars are just bad Even scoop is way worse than Huel for some reason. It bends very easily, which makes it a lot harder to use. I have no idea how they could mess up the scoop, but here we are. Shaker and reusable pot are okay I enjoy the tone of voice of brand and loyalty program A LOT. I really wanted to like the product, but it unfortunately didn't happen”

Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience with our products didn't meet your expectations, especially as a long-time user of similar products. We understand that taste is subjective, and we're always striving to improve. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the tone of our brand and our loyalty program – we really appreciate that! Regarding the shakes and pots, we aim to strike a balance that caters to a wide audience, but we understand that everyone has different preferences. We’ll certainly take your comments on the flavor and fillingness into account as we work on future iterations. As for the bars, we're sorry to hear they didn’t hit the mark for you. We’re always looking to improve our recipes, and your input is invaluable in that process. We’re especially concerned about the issues with the scoop.

If you have any more specific suggestions or further comments, we’d love to hear them. We hope you’ll give us another chance in the future.

“The pre meals were okay if you added your own spices to them, the bars were hard as a rock and almost tasteless sadly.. and the shake (banana) tasted like flour and I dont know why .. kinda sad for that price.”

I'm really sorry to hear about your experience with the bars and the Banana Shake. It's disappointing to hear they didn’t meet your expectations, especially when considering the value for the price. For the bars, if you're looking for a softer texture and more flavorful option, you might want to try the Almond & Fig Plenny Bar. It has natural sweetness from the figs and almond chunks that might be more to your liking. As for the shakes, if the Banana flavor felt a bit off, the Vanilla Shake could be a better fit. It's known for its smooth and subtle taste, which might align more with what you're looking for. We really appreciate your feedback as it helps us to continuously improve.

Thanks! I am sorry to hear that your first experience with our Creamy Cajun Pots and Plenny Bar didn't meet your expectations. Taste and texture preferences can vary greatly, and I'm here to help you find something more suited to your liking. For the Plenny Pot, some people like to add a pinch of their favorite spices or a dash of hot sauce to adjust the flavor to their taste. As for the Plenny Bar, trying a different flavor might change your experience, as each has its unique texture influenced by the ingredients. For example, the Almond & Fig bar might offer a different texture that you might find more appealing.

“I ordered 3 varieties and so far have tried 2 of them. Unfortunately, I'm finding them a little tasteless for me. I have contacted them regarding this and asked if they had any flavour boosters only to be told to try another flavour as they don't do the flavour boosters. I still have 1 flavour yet to try, but I am not hopeful. This was my first purchase and probably my last too”

Hello! I'm sorry to hear that the flavors haven't met your expectations so far. Taste is very personal, and finding the right fit for you is essential. While we don't offer specific flavor boosters, some customers enjoy customizing their meals with their own additions such as a dash of cinnamon, cocoa powder, or vanilla extract to shakes, and herbs or spices to pots. If you're open to experimenting a bit, this could be a fun way to adjust the taste to your liking. Which flavors have you tried, and what's the one you haven't yet? Maybe I can offer some specific suggestions to enhance it.
