Thank you Qota! Like others have said this is a lifesaver! I wish I found this years ago. I am vegan, recovering from disordered eating and also have ADHD which makes regular meals challenging at times.I am SO HAPPY to have found this. It’s quite yummy, good texture. I’ve ordered some sample sachets for travelling when meals can be hard. Thank you!!!
Personally my favourite flavour,very filling fast meal for a busy full-time working mother of 4.
I also like the limited edition birthday cake flavour for a change as well.
tried this when it was branded Aussielent and didn't like the graininess of the mixture. New formula is much better!
I've used Aussielent/Qota on and off for many years and this product is one I always come back to when I just need convenience. I am not sure how something can taste so neutral but be so satisfying at the same time - it's not delicious in the conventional sense, but I find myself craving it. Great product that makes starting the day a breeze!
Sometimes mornings are hectic. This shake meal makes nutrition easy. I mix it with water (filtered 😁) and think it tastes great 👍 I also add black chia seeds to reduce hunger for longer.
Speedy and helpful response when my shipping address was wrong.
Turns out Salted Caramel is better than Chocolate.
Please bring QOTA to Coles in Brisbane, QLD.
I've now received my 3rd pack (on subscription) that contains what appears to be bits of rancid oil(?). Essentially, small clumps of oily powder with a foul taste that basically ruin any drink I try to make.
I reported the issue to Qota after the first bag - they sent me a replacement from the same batch that had the same issue (which I also reported). I recently received my 3rd bag from a different batch but it has the same issue. Clearly no interest in resolving the problem (despite the suggestion that they'd raise it to their QA team) - a real shame since I've been buying from Aussielent (now Qota) pretty much since day 1 and turned a number of friends onto it. Will no longer recommend.
*edit* In response to Qota's response: The "hard" chunks of lecithin (if that's what it is?) are visible in the powder before it's mixed with water. 3 bags in a row have had this issue - no bag *ever* since you launched the product like a decade ago (I've been a customer that long!) has had this before. You can go and open a bag right now (or I can send my *three* back if you want!) and see it just by spreading the powder out a little. All of this was communicated previously to the support team along with images clearly demonstrating the problem.
Glad to hear the problem is apparently with me, not the product though. 10/10 customer service right there!
FWIW, I'm writing this because I *care* about your product. I just wish Qota did too.
Hi Tom,
Sorry to hear about this. We haven't recieved any feedback from other customers with the same problem.
This appears to be lecithin that hasn't disolved when you made up the shake but genearlly our lecithin doesn't have a flavour.
We have three shakers and all three have developed cracks in the lids, splitting on the outside of the threaded part. We only handwash them and don't tighten them that much. Dishwasher-safe shakers would be even more convenient - what will happen if these go in the dishwasher?
Hi Katherine
Sorry about the shakers - generally we don't have a problem with the lids - we use these at home ourselves and don't have any issues running them through the dishwasher.
I've arranged to send you some new shakers and also a bonus birthday cake pouch.
If you’re like me and have autism, adhd and issues with appetite/food aversion, sometimes you just can’t eat. This drink has helped me sooo so much with keeping healthy and in turn, mentally. I cannot recommend enough
I use 45g with ice and 2 cups water and a banana. Twice a day, and I’ve lost 4kgs in 12 days. I still eat one meal a day and light exercise.
Takes ok without a banana, but the banana helps with fullness and flavour.
Personal opinion. But loving it so far!
Husband has also started to drink it.
Always good for a quick meal, has a pleasant neutral flavour.
A bit like drinking raw pancake batter. However, it did grow on me a bit and the grainy texture of some other flavours was less noticeable. Sprinkles sink to the bottom.
Nice flavour, not too sweet thought the sprinkles sink to the bottom and some bits felt large, but I like this flavour over the vanilla. I find it tastes better if I premake this over night.
It’s a solid meal replacement especially with an added scoop of protein powder, mixes well and goes down easy. I actually also quite enjoy the taste and texture of the powder too, very happy overall :)
A good shake, I’m very happy it doesn’t have artificial sweetener in it. It tastes like oats or wheat with a hint of chocolate, pretty good if you’re after a proper replacement unrelated to VLCD diets.
Tastes more like maple pancakes than birthday cake, which I quite like. Would definitely prefer this flavour without the sprinkles but eh, it’s limited edition.
It was an enjoyable nice change of pace.
I would have preferred a more cake like flavour to the shake, and the sprinkles weren't great, settling to the bottom of the shake quickly.
While typically a salted caramel enthusiast, birthday cake quite figuratively 'takes the cake'.
I prefer this flavour out of all of the others. It goes great with whatever I add to it!
Tastes great, love the improved flavour and texture. Compliments to the chef
Lost my daily shake as they added sucralose whichis terrible for you. Sucralose is proven to destroy the gut microbiome and cause long term health issues. On the search to find a new meal replacement shake that doesn’t have this ingredient.
My Qota pack turned up very quickly, and was exactly as I expected. The instructions were clear and I had no trouble preparing the first drink. I thought the shaker thing was really good.The vanilla favour is pleasant. All round I would highly recommend it! Bonus is beautifully designed pack, with thoughtful font and an easy to read and comprehensive ingredients list. Thanks Qota- from Coogee, Sydney
I've been using meal replacement powders for a number of years now. Unfortunately, this one wasn't great. The flavouring was very mild so the overpowering taste was of unflavoured whey power.
