“The product was shipped reasonably quickly (5 days) and took only another 5 getting here (Italy).
The only quirk was that I gave specific shipping instructions (to tell the courier not to ring the bell, but to call me on my cellphone instead) and apparently these weren't forwarded to them - I don't know if it's Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake's fault or the shipping company's.
Luckily for me the receptionist still accepted the package, although she complained and basically told me "don't ever do that again".
(We aren't allowed to have packages shipped here at our office.)
I liked vanilla and chocolate the most, strawberry is OK and I didn't really like mango - it tastes weird to me, but I never had a real mango to compare to so maybe that's just what mangos taste like.
I have yet to try banana, but so far I'd definitely say vanilla and chocolate are best.”
“I love Jimmy Joy/Plenny Shake Wake-up, without it I simply skip breakfast, with it I have an energetic start of the day, more energetic than with any other breakfast I've had. Product development is also ongoing, which i highly appreciate, the quality is much higher than many competitors, for a very good price, which makes me look forward to when different flavors are introduced. Minor hickup with the delivery before last order, wrong delivery time was announced, and the deliveror didn't ring and then brought it to a pick-up place thats almost only opener during office hours. After calling they helped tremendously and last order went very well. Had a broken packet in the box twice now, which made all the pockets a bit dusty and dirty, still awaiting response on that complaint. 9/10 would recommend”
“Using the well known American competitor during the last exam time and when a project at work is in the usual crunch time phase saved me a lot of stress. I do not feel like to replace my complete diet with Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake because I love "real" food too much ;) But, replacing lunch with Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake on a tough day at work is really helpful and definitely more healthy than the usual kebap or fries.
One Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake-meal lasts about five hours (good!). It also does not make me feel tired in the afternoon like big, fat meals sometimes do.”
“Package arrived not too long ago - tried mango - flavor is subtle when mixed with water but still enjoyable. Felt like a normal meal in terms of "weight".
What amazed me the the most though, is the great marketing they have, from website to videos to the message that comes with the first order (wont spoil it ;) but they're flattering) - whoever the people are in the marketing, I love them. A lot.”
“I got interested in Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake thanks to a Finnish imageboard thread about it. The apparent transparency of the product and company actions got me really interested. There was perhaps too much of "teehee don't you worry about a thing =) this is just boring company policy heehee =)" type of flair in the site, but the videos of the manufacturing, packaging processes and overall concept won me over and led me to reach for my money to throw at Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake.
I ordered a bag of each flavor to try out Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake. The order arrived within a few weeks from ordering and was brought to my doorstep by a professional delivery guy in the morning. The package box was neat and the products were in good shape.
Chocolate: Didn't taste very chocolate-y, the only thing reminiscent of chocolate was the really faint aroma coming from the powder. As this was the first flavor I tasted, I noted that the taste was very oaty, which was good. I consider this to be the most neutral flavor.
Banana: A strong banana smell and tasted like a banana. I didn't like it and can't really pinpoint why so, but YMMV. A banana lover friend liked it.
Strawberry: The strawberry taste was only partially there, as if instead of strawberries, a hollow soul of a strawberry was used in flavoring. It was pretty ok overall flavor, not really offensive.
Vanilla: A basic vanilla flavor to the oaty goodness. If you like vanilla flavored products, this is for you.
Mango: I really liked this flavor. The taste of mango was present and I can recommend this. It was so fresh.
The shaker that came with the order is easy to wash and the metallic dissolver ball thing helps a lot to make Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake smoother. I have to shake it pretty hard to get rid of the last clots, which left me worrying about scraping plastic off the inner surface. I can't see scratches inside the bottle (YET?), so I guess it's fine.
I found Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake to be really easy to consume compared to a regular oatmeal in the morning, I like the drinkability and how it's got a balanced mix of vitamins, protein, carbs, electrolytes (which I crave), etc. I haven't replaced all of my diet with it, but 1-2 portions a day keeps me much better off than without: I can report a rise in energy levels and an increased ability to focus.
Overall Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake is a good product, but the flavors may need some refinement. It doesn't taste bad, maybe I'm asking too much from it and expect it to be the most bestest all-round perfect product that solves all problems. I rate it 4/5.”
“Much tastier than the well known American competitor. Cheaper if purchased in bulk (even with shipping to the US.
Also, Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake hasn't been bought out by a big investment firm that has switched to all Soy protein to save money while pimping the merits of GMO food.”
“I'm just over 2 weeks of consuming mostly Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake. I wasn't sure if it was for me, but I gave it a shot.
It is as described on the website - quick and easy to prepare, and surprisingly easy to drink.
The main difference I have noticed is the extra "gas" I produce! But that seems to be calming down a bit now. (I can't smell anyway, so, win win, right?)”
