“Not bad tasting and very efficient. I eat (well... drink) once a day and it is very useful when you don't have lot of time to eat (at work for example). I use it since august 2015 !”
“Nice variety of flavors and three servings per bag is just right to keep things fresh. Joylent allows me to use my lunch break to workout and then have my lunch at my desk after, which is perfect.”
“The process is straightforward, shipping follows immediatedly - professional service. The stuff at JimmyJoy is full of humour. Read their FAQs or even the terms and conditions! Your day will be made!”
“mango > banana > vanilla > chocolate > strawberry
pros:
* after getting used to the texture, it tastes better than soylent
* bag zip seal is engineered to avoid spilling powder everywhere unlike soylent
* cheap unlike soylent in canada
* roommate is confused about how I don't eat food
* wasn't a crying baby on a plane
* the old name was cool
cons:
* the texture takes some getting used to
* the strawberry flavour is garbage, and I love strawberry-flavoured things that aren't strawberries... if I wanted to drink strawberry seeds I would have ordered strawberry seed flavour
* trying every flavour required substantial, risky investment... there should be a sample package with one bottle worth of each flavour
* the bag is too narrow or the scoop is too big... scooping is awkward and covers my hand/counter with powder
* preparing a bottle requires 3.5 scoops... why not make the scoop smaller for a round 4 scoops and simultaneously fix the awkward bag problem
* the mango bag doesn't contain the correct amount of powder to fit a round number of bottles
* bag flavours are hard to distinguish when I've lazily thrown them all in a cupboard and half of them are lying face-down... colour the bags by flavour
* I live in a canadian border city but my shipping is 6x the cost of an american's
* I'm not american
* the shaker bottle does not shake itself
* the new name is not cool
P.S. please include me in the test club: m at k*******.org ;)”
“I've been using Soylent and tried Jimmy joy.
First, Jimmy joy's main pro is that it is very cheap, and I think this in very important. the other pro is that it has a lots of flavors, personally my favorite is vanilla.
The main drawback, the one I have been really strugling with, is that basically the powder does not dissolve. At first, I thought it was just the oats being not fine enough. But it was far more than just oats. Not only can I feel it in my mouth, the shake starts to seperate almost instanly after I shook it. It's almost like the water is just there to disperse the power so that I can comsume the power easily with water, rather than making a complete beverage.”
