Hey! I am looking for EU made meal replacement powders/shakes. Anything food related (especially in powder form) is full of snake oil and it is hard to find any reliable sources for recommendations.
I know it might be a stretch, but could anyone suggest some brands that they have tried and liked?
I am mainly looking for the ease of preparing it, so the taste isn't that important for me.

Mana, Saturo (unfortunately they changed the product, loved the old one), Bertrand
Can't say anything about if they are really good for you, but at least they don't taste like shit (for me).

Years ago I tried Bertrand. It’s okay, I guess? But more expensive since they claim to be „organic“.

Afaik they’re from Germany.

Huel is a privately owned British company.
They have a range of nutritionally complete products including powder, food bars and drinks in a range of flavours. I've used them and would recommend the powder and drinks; the bars are... functional.
My local convenience store recently started stocking the drinks, and I usually have a bag of the powder in the cupboard for when I can't be bothered cooking.

Still European so not a huge issue, but Huel have just been bought by Danone

Oboy. Wasn't aware, thanks.
Though I'm not surprised, and it could have been a much worse conglomerate. But it probably explains why their products are appearing on retail shelves in the UK.
