I've ordered maybe 10 of these already and have it almost everyday. If I drink it for a meal, I would use two scoops. As a breakfast, it keeps me going till lunch. It took a bit of getting use to at first so don't be attached to the idea it's got to taste like a chocolate milk shake, and you'll be fine:) As a vegan choc protein drink, it is very good. It's not sandy at all. Tastes good with soy milk.
