Tastes good and is filling. Much recommended.
If you are grossed out by vanilla flavored drinks like slimfast, this is the meal replacement for you. I haven't tried it using only 8oz of liquid instead I use a 28oz blender cup. I put in 2 scoops (included in bag) with about 3 inches of skim milk and shake gently. It will foam up due to the protein but will setting down in a few minutes, then I fill the cup the rest of the way with milk. turn the cup upside down and back to right side up a few slow times to mix the entirety and enjoy. It tastes best if very cold and has the taste of a thing ice cream shake. Not bad at all.If you are unsure, try a smaller container of this. I'm sure it will be fine with you taste-wise. I think mixing it with other liquids other than milk would be a bad idea but I'm a picky eater. I bought my bag November 6th and with drinking 1 in the morning, having a light lunch, and drinking 1 in the evening, I have lost 10+ pounds. (I have cheated a bit over the holiday) and I haven't started exercising yet. This drink will fill you up and get you from breakfast to lunch to dinner and through to morning. If you drink this and are still hungry, eat a fruit or some veggies afterward.I will gladly recommend this. (I have 40 pounds more to lose)

Tastes GREAT and works GREAT!!!
I've read many reviews of Total Soy and have always been a little skeptical when it comes to "meal replacement" because as a rule, most dietary shakes taste like crap. However, I was extremely surprised when I tasted this stuff and actually liked it. I got the Vanilla and it tastes just like vanilla ice cream. You can easily add some ground up fruit to your taste, but in all honesty it tastes good as is. As far as this working as a meal replacement shake, I can assure you 100% that it does work. Normally, I don't eat after lunch but I get hungry around bed-time and even sometimes at 2am, so I just mix up one of these shakes before bed and I'm good until breakfast. I do recommend you get the blender bottle with this because I'm not sure if the powder will completely dissolve without it. Also, I recommend you use the coldest water you have. Cold tap water works fine, but I prefer my shakes very cold. Perhaps this makes them a little thicker, but you can experiment to what works best for you. The 5# is kind of expensive, but it has more than paid for itself not only monetarily, but time saved preparing a meal, washing dishes etc....

I too love this product.
This meal replacement has helped me ( 6'1" male ) to lose 12 lbs (171 to 159) over a period of 6 months. It is a healthy supplement that I add to my Gatorade and orange juice mixture. The taste is excellent, and it mixes well. I can find no fault with it. As an athlete, it is a great food to help me run well.

The taste is fine and my only problem with it is that I am a vegan and this has some dairy in it and the package seems to give the impression it is all soy and some other nutrients. Only after I had used it a few times for smoothies did i read the fine print to discover the milk problem. I will not buy again unless ALL ANIMAL PRODUCTS ARE REMOVED. Organic soy product animal free should be an easy fix!

I love this product
I love this product. A few years ago I was looking to drop a few pounds. Not knowing what to look for in a meal replacement I just bought what was local. They used to sell these at my local wholesale club. Unfortunately they stopped carrying this and after dropping 20+ lbs I stopped my diet. A couple years go by and I slowly have been packing the weight back on. When I wanted to drop a couple more pounds this is the first thing that I looked for. After a little over a month people have asked me if I lost any weight. I didn't take a starting weight but I feel better. I have been using this every morning along with eating better throughout the day.I mix this with Skim milk, a banana, and an ice cube. I throw it in my magic bullet blender for about 30 seconds and it is perfect. This is a great meal replacement for someone like me who is trying to get 2 kids out of the house in the morning.

Great taste. Mixes well with milk, water or juice.... but shop around, I could have paid 50% less at Sam's club online (smh)

I love total soy
This is a good source of protein, and I like the vanilla taste, and you can't beat the price for the amount of protein powder you get. It keeps me satisfied between meals, and I have lost weight on it. It has also helped me curb my appetite for things I shouldn't eat, I'm diabetic and and I have pancreas problems, the total soy has been very helpful for a source of nourishment when I'm not able to eat because of my illness.

Breakfast
Breakfast has always been a problem for me because I don't handle carbs well. Cereal makes me shake 4 hours later because my production of insulin over-reacts to the sugar and my blood sugar tanks. Eggs were the perfect fit until I had my cholesterol checked. Ouch! I went to the health food store and bought a sample of every flavor of every soy-based meal replacement they had. This tastes better than any of them. A smoothy in the morning keeps me content until lunch with no shakiness. It tastes good with water or milk and is very popular around here with fruit. I have only tried the vanilla because I like to add things. I have been using it for over 2 years and still look forward to it every morning. Last year I lost 40 lbs. This was always my breakfast.
