Positive so far. I tried Soylent a few years ago and really had a hard time sticking with it. It left me bloated, but not feeling satiated. I wanted to try a modern meal replacement again recently and found that there were very few options for Canadians. Queal was one of the few and I decided to give it a shot.
I've tried most of the flavor so far with Banana being my favourite. Some of the flavours I find too sweet (Funky Fruit Forest, Apple Pie) and would probably enjoy more if sweetness was reduced. I'd also like to see an unflavoured option that I could flavor myself as I would like the option for savoury drinks (Spicy Tomato, for example).
One of the things that drew me to Queal (aside from the diversity of flavours and other options) is the goal of environmental sustainability. I like that Queal is looking to improve here and considers it one of the corporate goals. That said, I'd love to see less packaging or more sustainable packaging. I'm going through 2-3 bags a week and there's really no reason that couldn't be one bag to cut down on some packaging. I realize that Queal is already using less plastic than some competitors, but there is always room for improvement. In a perfect world I could compost the bags. I'd certainly be willing to pay more for Queal if that were possible.

Thank you for the extended review. For the flavours, we've tried and will keep trying, but believe me if I say that Tasty Tomato wasn't a success :( And we're looking into using less packaging (but keeping choice availability in mind)
