Slim Fast Taste Test

Maisonneuve Magazine blogs about the real taste of Slim-Fast:

It still has the gloopy, insidious texture of Pepto-Bismol: it feels like it’s coating not just your stomach but your soul. I suppose this is the magical result of combining cellulose gel—a thickening agent which mimics the mouth feel of fat—and canola oil. I can’t imagine getting used to it, I can’t imagine getting full on it, but I suppose the 34 grams of sugar per shake do force a mad and momentary smile to cross your lips—soon to dissolve once the hunger sets in, I’m afraid.

Well said--I never liked that stuff--and the low-carb version tastes even worse! Yick.

I like the Cappucino Optima one. I put in freezer for about 1 1/2 hours then drink the smoothie with a straw. Just as satifying as a Tall White Choc. Mocha from Starbucks - less money and less calories!!
