Enjoy a smooth, creamy texture with naturally delicious flavours. Perfect for on-the-go consumption, this ready-to-drink meal is convenient for busy mornings, post-workout recovery.

How it compares on the diet & nutrition shelf

Across the 39 rated diet & nutrition products we track, the middle of the pack sits at 4.4 out of 5. This one scores 4.5. That's mid-table. Star ratings won't separate this from its neighbours, so the decision comes down to pack size, price per unit and whether the specifics below suit you.

Behind that score sit 336 ratings, against a shelf median of 2,473. That isn't much to go on by the standards of this shelf. Scores this lightly reviewed move easily, so take it as a first impression.

Price-wise it falls in the top third of a shelf that stretches £4.99 to £97.98, with £12.00 in the middle. It costs more than most while rating around the middle, so the extra money needs to be buying something specific: pack size, brand you trust, or a detail below that matters to you.
