She comes across as someone thats got a downer on it, and hellbent on trivialising to begin with even trying to get her friends from her biased viewpoint to form an opinion before its passed their lips. It suits some lifestyles and requirements perfectly YMMV I'd say to the Guardian reviewer that probably spends a lot of time in posh delis or shopping at Waitrose. Theres many people like myself that can't really eat that well on a budget. For what, £1.60 a meal its good value and I don't have to worry about nutrition, or cleaning up in a very small apartment. If you are a foodie, have the budget and the time and the nice kitchen knock yourself out, but I love the convenience and sleeping well on something thats nutritionally complete, takes seconds to prep and easy to digest - plus simple to calorie count. I am a bit of an evangelist over this stuff, I get the piss ripped out of me unmercifully at work which I don't get. I suppose individuality scares some people.
It's pretty much pointless getting someone to review a product that they have no interest in even using. Having seen her description of the food she was serving her friends it's pretty obvious she's very 'into' food. Both preparing, and eating it... So it's also pretty obvious she was going to hate switching all of that to a powdered food.
As I said, I love the stuff. I love the convenience, the lack of hassle or trying to figure out what to buy and make, and I even like the taste. For me it's a great product... But if people come at it full of negative thoughts from the start, and actually enjoy everything involved in having a normal solid food diet, it's probably a given they're not going to have the same feelings as me about Huel.
