OWYN Only What You Need Vegan Complete Nutrition Protein Shake, 20g plant based protein, 23 Vitamins Minerals, Nutritional Shake, Gluten, Soy, and Tree Nut-Free (Chocolate, 12 pack)

Loved these. Felt great. Sad that they're out of stock because i would have bought 3 more boxes! I like that there's carbs in these ones vs sugar free. I appreciate sugar free and low carb alternatives...but I liked these WAY better because it was sweeter and felt more like a complete meal.

Love the taste of this product. It's like a good glass of chocolate milk, good source of plant-based protein. Low card, 20 grams of protein, only 170 calories and satisfying. It's good on some cereals as well--makes it taste like dessert even if paired with a healthy cereal. The consistency is good.

I've drank a lot of different protien drinks throughout the years & this is one of the best tasting drinks I've found. And added bonus is that it is dairy free & does not upset my stomach. It's also great for using in shakes.

I tried this coming from another product. The other product tasted and felt exactly like chocolate milk.So when I first got this, it seemed unexpectedly thick and with a slightly funny taste, and wasn't sure I would like it. So let me help clarify a couple things since this is where the most negative reviews come from.Texture: If you don't shake it, it will turn thick and gelatinous. If it sits too long, it will turn gelatinous. Basically just give it a quick shake when you're about to take a swig, and it's perfectly fine.Taste: If you're expecting chocolate milk, it'll taste a little off. Rather, expect chocolate pudding. It tastes almost EXACTLY like chocolate pudding. If you let it sit and it thickens, it basically IS chocolate pudding.UPDATE (taste and texture): They appear to have switched from plastic bottles to cardboard cartons, which I like. But they did change the formulation so the texture is more that of chocolate milk. This makes it slightly less satisfying, and it makes the taste match the texture a little less. But it's still arguably the best-tasting meal replacement I've had. I only wish I could find a powdered meal replacement that was even HALF this good.Now on to my take.I have EOE caused by Oral Allergy Syndrome. So I have allergies to soy, whey, nuts, fish, and most raw fruits and veggies. So finding meal replacements and protein supplements is a pain. Everything gives me heartburn or makes my mouth itch. Not only does this product go without these ingredients, they actively test against cross-contamination. I think I MIGHT get a slight reaction to one of the other ingredients (possibly Pea protein). But other than that, nothing whatsoever.If I could add anything, it would be prebiotics, and a bit more potassium. Then it would be the perfect supplement for the fact that I can't eat many unprocessed foods.

I'm addicted to these expensive drinks. I think these are the best they make. Good nutrients and taste. Healthy ingredients and thoughtful to those with allergies.

Is this the synthetic version of Cyanocobalamin? Bc if it is then that’s not good. So far this is my favorite plant based drink taste wise, but the Cyanocobalamin is something I’m worried about.

As a vegetarian with a dairy sensitivity, most of the other shakes on the market with whey protein isolate/casein just do not digest well. OWYN is fabulous. I suffered rapid weight loss recently and have been struggling to get enough calories with limited volume and low-to-no appetite. OWYN just goes down really easy. I have tried only the chocolate flavor. It is not overwhelmingly chocolatey, but quite tasty. It has a very smooth texture and is quite thin (I'm not a fan of thick shakes when I'm not feeling well). It can easily be added to a blender if you want to add in additional ingredients, avocado, yogurt, flax oil, etc for additional calories.Bottom line 300 calories for 12 oz is a lot of bang for your buck, good for FODMAP-sensitive folks, those who struggle to get enouh calories and nutrition (eg, if you're on a restricted diet). My RD recommended this!

According to Amazon I have purchased this product 41 times. That doesn't include the times I bought directly from OWYN. As a breast cancer patient, managing my own care, I needed a meal replacement shake that had protein, but didn't have dairy or a bunch of additives. So I thought I was in heaven when I found these.Before this most recent packaging change (they subtracted an ounce but added to the price), the quality had begun to slip. By using the word "slip" I'm being generous. I had a subscription, and suddenly every order I got risked bottles, and sometimes whole cases, of dense sludge with unidentifiable pieces in it that felt kind of twiggy. Like trash got mixed into the product. And don't tell me I didn't shake it enough. At over 41 cases I know what to expect from this product when it's good. And this was like getting what was literally left in the bottom of the barrel.Fast forward to newer packaging and months of well made product like the one that drew me to the brand originally. But This Month the garbage was back. Thick, glutinous, twiggy grossness. Amazon gave me a refund on one case, and I thank them. I have 2 more cases in my kitchen that I'm afraid to try right out of the carton. I can pour them into a glass, which kind of defeats the point of convenience, but may give me protection from whatever dross has been in this stuff. But one more carton like my last and my 3 case a month subscription will be cancelled. And I'll be on my search for a brand that would never let this evil swill get to a customer.
