I received a Slimfast Vox Box from Influenster to try the products and review them. These are my honest opinions.
SlimFast Advanced Nutrition - Vanilla Shake
This is supposed to be a meal replacement shake. I tried it as a breakfast shake. I made sure it was chilled for optimum taste. I couldn't make it more than a few sip/gulps. The flavor was incredibly sweet. Way too sweet for my liking. The taste of the vanilla seemed very fake also. Overall it was not a good experience for me. I refrigerated the left overs and tried them again later in the day, thinking it was just my early morning taste buds misbehaving. But my second try went the same way. I like the idea but I wouldn't be able to force it down. I wouldn't try it again.
SlimFast Advanced Nutrition - Baked Crisps - Sour Cream & Onion
This is a 100 Calorie snack. Healthy baked crisps, yes please. But alas, these were not what I expected. The chips were crunchy which I loved. But they were almost too thick. Slightly thinner would have made a wonderful difference. The initial flavor was delightful. It was sour cream and onion, until you swallowed. Then there was this awful chalky aftertaste. It was like a coating on my tongue. I ate about 1/2 the bag before I just couldn't do it anymore. If you are looking to get me not to snack at all, this worked. But if I needed a little filler between meals, I'll just stick to fruit or nuts.
SlimFast Advanced Nutrition - Drizzled Crisps - Cinnamon Bun Swirl
This is another 100 calorie snack. Where the Baked Crisps were savory, these are sweet. Well I would imagine they are sweet. My husband said they were "okay" but asked me not to buy them. I couldn't try them myself because I have a thing about Cinnamon. I can't eat it. Well I can eat it but only if the flavor is virtually undetectable, like in King Cake. Otherwise, this horrible gag reflex thing happens. Something I hate with a passion so if I know or can smell the cinnamon in things, I wont eat them. So I wouldn't buy them but that is more of a me thing not an issue with the actual product.
I like the idea of the products that were sent to me but the textures and flavors of said products were not appealing to me. Therefore I personally wouldn't recommend them.
