Ready to Drink feedback

[Julia_TeamJake]

Hi Jake fans!

As you might have noticed, we launched our Ready to Drink meal earlier this month in the flavour vanilla. Now we are very curious about how you experienced it. Is there anything you would like to share with us, or do you have any feedback for improvement?

We'd love to hear it!

I am a bit confused about Omega 3 and 6 in ready to drink meal.

On your website it says it contains both but after I ordered it there's no mention about it on the bottle itself.
It states only Saturated fat which I guess is not ideal..

Can you please explain this?

Hi @Maciej_s,

Thanks for your message!
The text on the page is indeed a bit confusing. I will pass this on internally.

The Ready to Drink contains 17.5 grams of saturated fat, which is 7 times more than in the original shake. Now the RTD is 1/5 of your day and the shake 1/3. Would you take 5 RTD or 3 shakes. With the RTD you'll get 87.5 grams of saturated fat per day and with the shake, it's 7.5 grams of saturated fat per day. Finally, Omega 3 and 6 have not been added as this would have an effect on the soft and smooth taste that the drinks now have.

I hope your question has been answered this way if the higher dose of saturated fat and the lack of Omega 3 and 6 are of great importance to you. Then our shakes might be a better match for you.

In any case, thanks for your feedback we really appreciate it. We will communicate this more clearly!

So it is basically a drink full of saturated fat and sugar.
I am not sure it should still be considered as healthy.

I should definitely researched it more before buying so its my fault.
If I'm honest your website makes it really hard to find nutrition facts.
Not to mention for example amino acids profile which is nowhere to be found.
And that's strange because I remember it was easily accessible before.

Finally, I ordered it because I believed it is still the same excellent quality Jake from 2015 when I first order it.
Unfortunately, it seems like it is not the same.

If not the cost of shipping from UK I would return it.

Hi @Maciej_s,

Thanks for your answer.
The amounts of sugars and fats are indeed lower in the shake than in the Ready-to-Drink, but they do meet the right amount of vitamins and minerals. We never mention that this is our healthiest product, healthy remains difficult to define.

On our Compare Page you can find all the information you are looking for and you can compare the ingredients per product!

[Maciej_s]

All the information?

So please tell me, where is the aminogram?

As I am not able to find it.

[Julia_TeamJake]

Hi @Maciej_s,

Thanks for your reply.
We currently don't have an aminogram profile on our website.
But we asked our supplier for it. As soon as we receive it I will share it with you here. (:

[Maciej_s]

Really, no one at Jake never thought about asking that your supplier?

So basically you do not know what you're selling.

It is a bit scary if I am honest.

Hi @Maciej_s

My apologies for the clarity that has arisen about our “ready to drink”, my colleague Julia does the marketing for Jake and was not aware of the fact that we had an amino acid profile of our “ready to drink”. The question finally came to me and I have the table below with the amounts of the "BCAAs". If you have any further questions about this, please let me know

I'm very happy with the RTD as I use it to gain some weight and I'm able to chuck these down while actually enjoying it. Something I don't have with all the powder shakes which are slightly more healthy.
They also taste better than the one from JJ.

I would personally prefer the RTD's to be slightly bigger, a 500 ml version would equal a 600kcal meal which would be perfect for me personally. I have no idea how much interest you would have for that from other customers.

Hi @Yuri

Thank you for your feedback and it's great that you are so pleased with our RTD.

A few months ago we conducted a survey among our RTD users about their experiences with the RTD. This showed, among other things, that the format of the RTD is good. In addition, the packaging as it is now can be shipped very well.

So unfortunately, there won't be a larger format of the RTD.

Thanks again for the feedback

That's all right, just shared the feedback, I'm happy with the product.
Have a great day
