My Thoughts on FEED: The Truth About These Meals and Weight Loss Programs! [2024]

When you're short on time to cook, do you also reluctantly settle for a sandwich? Or maybe you end up ordering an expensive meal delivery that you wish you could have saved on?

Today, I'm excited to share with you a solution that has transformed my daily life in recent months: it's Feed! You may have heard of it before? These meal replacements are known for their convenience and quality. I've placed several orders over the past few months, and I'm here to share my thoughts on it!

What is a Feed?

💖 I loved it

• The taste of the bars (especially sesame-chocolate),
• How convenient they are and the time saved,
• The feeling of satisfaction,
• The effectiveness of the 15-day weight-loss program,
• The subscription system,
• Being able to discover and try the products at my pharmacy.

❌ I didn’t quite like

• Meals in the form of drinks, which are less convenient and have a stronger taste,
• The high price of snacks,
• I couldn't find out where the bars and drinks are made.

How Does Feed Work?

Behind Feed is the aim of providing wholesome and balanced snacks that require no preparation, allowing you to replace a meal without compromising your health. These are products you can order directly from the website.

If you want to taste the meals before ordering a lot, there are discovery packages available. You can also find a dealer near you.

Feed offers meals in the form of drinks or snacks. They have a variety of options available:

• Original, classic meals that appeal to everyone,
• Light, for those who have a weight-loss goal,
• Sport, featuring high-protein formulas.

How to Save Money with a Feed Subscription?

When you visit the Feed website, you have the option to purchase products individually. However, whenever you add a meal to your cart, you will always be offered a subscription. Is it really worth it?

First off, please know that this subscription comes with no commitment at all. It's simply about choosing how often you would like to receive a specific product. This can be:

• Every month,
• Every two months,
• Every three months.

Next, the subscription gives you 15% off your product. For instance, if you want to receive 6 Chocolate Vanilla bars each month, you'll pay S$19.51 instead of S$22.95 without the subscription, which is like getting almost one bar for free!

Why choose Feed meals over real meals?

Before I discovered Feed, whenever I had to grab a quick lunch, I would often buy a sandwich or order a meal delivery. So why didn't I just keep doing that?

By piling up meals that aren't really balanced, I gradually noticed the consequences in my daily life:

• Weight gain,
• Severe fatigue in the afternoon after eating,
• Blood pressure issues,
• Digestive difficulties,
• Emergence of deficiencies in my blood tests...

So, in the hope of finding a better solution for my health, I started trying out Feed!

The difference that Feed has made for me is the ability to enjoy balanced and light meals. This has had an immediate effect: after my lunch break, I no longer felt like taking a nap for several hours. I've become more efficient and this has allowed me to complete tasks more quickly.

As a self-employed individual, it's crucial for me to stay fit and alert throughout the day. Feed has truly transformed my daily routine in this regard!

Drink or Bar, What's the Difference?

When I made my first order on Feed, I tried both the Original and Light ranges of drinks and bars. Here’s what you need to know about these two options.

Feed Drinks: A Liquid Version That Reminds You of Protein Shakes

Source: Feed.co

The drinks are prepared in a shaker provided by Feed or you can use your own shaker. It takes just 30 seconds! Simply pour 300ml of water into the shaker, then add three scoops of Feed powder. After that, shake it a bit and it's ready to drink!

🥕 Feed offers a variety of sweet flavours (chocolate, vanilla, mixed berries...), as well as more savoury options like Vegetables and Tomatoes, which are not available in bars. If you're looking for a meal with these flavours, you'll need to go for the prepared drinks instead.

👉 If you prefer not to prepare it yourself, there are ready-to-drink meals available, which are a bit pricier but save you the hassle of mixing.

Bars: A delicious snack that can replace a whole meal!

The start-up Feed has been offering bars that look like granola bars for several years now. Similar to drinks, each bar is equivalent to a complete and balanced meal.

The bars are slightly more expensive than the drinks, but they are ready to eat.

What did I prefer, the bars or the drinks?

Initially, I really thought I would prefer the drinks, as they felt more like having soup, which reminded me of a proper meal. However, after some time, I actually preferred the bars, as they gave me a better feeling of fullness and felt lighter on my stomach.

👉 In my opinion, the best approach is to try both and see what suits your preferences, habits, and needs the most! For that, the discovery pack at SGD 21.90 offered by Feed is really perfect.

When to Take Feed?

It is not advisable to rely solely on Feed meals. However, substitutes can be consumed quite regularly, as the recommended routine during the meal plans is to have two Feed meals a day alongside one regular meal.

Feed is convenient because you can distribute your intake however you like. For instance, if you want to have a bar for breakfast and lunch, that's totally possible.

Feed offers you some snacks that you can enjoy whenever you're feeling a bit hungry:

Is Feed eco-friendly?

As an innovative start-up, Feed stands out with its ecological commitments that are outlined on its website and social media. There are three main focus areas:

• The quality control of ingredients, with products that are 100% plant-based and sustainable.
• Water saving: producing plant proteins uses significantly less water compared to livestock farming. By consuming 1000 Feed meals, over a million litres of water can be saved!
• Recycling, including:
• recyclable and recycled packaging from sustainably managed forests,
• a significant reduction in packaging,
• the "Imprim'vert" certification for partner printers (environmentally friendly ink, waste reduction...).

Is Feed Vegan? Gluten-Free? Halal?

The aim of Feed is to provide convenient and healthy meals for as many people as possible. All Feed products are vegan and gluten-free. They are designed to be easy to digest and are made without GMOs.

Source: Cuure.com

Feed products are, however, neither Halal nor Kosher. Since they are vegan, they might still be suitable for individuals following these diets.

👉 In any case, I really appreciated being able to check the exact ingredients of each meal directly from its product page on the website. This makes it easier to know if it's suitable for us, especially if we have any allergies!

Can I consume Feed if I have diabetes?

Feed products are designed to be suitable for diabetics, with a low glycemic index ranging from 22 to 30. However, I recommend that you consult your doctor before trying Feed meals, to ensure that they are right for you!

What are the delivery options available with Feed? 🚛

In mainland France, you can have your meals delivered:

• At home or at work, within 3 to 4 working days with Colissimo,
• at a Mondial Relay pick-up point, within the same time frame,
• by express, with Chronopost: they will arrive in 48 hours!

🌍 For deliveries to the rest of Europe, it will take between 6 to 10 working days.

Is Feed harmful to health?

To answer this question, let's turn to the experts! Here’s a report that's under 5 minutes, featured in the show "La Quotidienne" on France 5, focusing on food substitutes, particularly Feed:

In this post, we feature a testimonial from a Feed customer, as well as insights into how the products are made, along with a nutritionist's perspective!

👩‍⚕️ This doctor confirms that the freeze-drying technique used to make Feed products helps to preserve the nutritional values of the food. Although it’s not advisable to rely solely on Feed meals (it's important to continue chewing solid foods and maintain a normal calorie intake!), there would be no danger in consuming them quite frequently if you are in good health!

You can pay in three installments starting from S$99. Feed partners with the micro-lending company Alma, which manages this payment in multiple installments.

Can Feed help with weight loss?

The Feed products from the Original and Sport ranges are not designed to help you lose weight. To achieve this goal, you should consider the Feed Light products, or even the weight loss plan offered by the brand.

How do Feed Light products help with weight loss?

In this range, you'll find what made the classic meals popular: convenient meal bars and shakeable meal drinks. To assist you in losing weight, these meals are specially formulated to be low in calories.

They are also high in fiber and protein, which helps to keep your digestion smooth and provides you with everything you need on a daily basis.

Source: Feed.co

They also have a secret ingredient: Konjac! This is a root that has a strong appetite-suppressing effect and helps retain water in the stomach.

🍫 In total, a Feed Light bar has less than 250 kcal and only 8 grams of sugar! That's even less than a piece of fruit! They also contain essential vitamins and minerals to keep you healthy!

How does the Feed weight loss program work?

Cure offers you 3 different treatment durations to choose from based on your goals:

Source: Feed.co

The idea is to replace two meals a day, whichever you choose, with Feed meals. The third meal should be balanced and low in calories for it to be effective.

👉I tried out the weight loss plan with 32 meals for a month last month, as I had put on a bit of weight and wanted to give it a go. I was quite pleased with the selection of bars! Personally, I had a Feed meal in the morning and another one at lunch, with a light dinner in the evening, consisting of soup or vegetables. I lost 4 kg and nearly a clothing size in just over two weeks: I’m really happy with the results!

What is the cost of a weight loss programme?

The price of treatments varies depending on their duration:

🤑 The "savings made" column shows you the money you save by opting for a bundle deal instead of purchasing the products individually from Feed's website.

Can I give a Feed gift voucher? 🎁

At the moment, it doesn’t look like there’s any gift card offers on the website! Do check if that has changed since this article was published, as it would be a shame!

What do people think about Feed? Check out the customer reviews!

To find out if Feed is what you're looking for, there's nothing better than reading customer reviews carefully. To save you some time, I've already done this research for you and here’s a summary of the key points.

About the Feed Review Tool

On its website, Feed allows its customers to leave ratings with comments. The review platform seems quite neutral, as it features both positive and negative reviews.

There are a large number of reviews: 3,268 reviews to date, giving us a pretty comprehensive overview of what customers think about Feed products.

Source: Feed.co

It’s clear that there are actually over 70% of reviews with 5 stars, which is really encouraging! That's more than 7 out of 10 people who are very satisfied!

💚 Feed customers loved:

• The taste of Feed meals, especially the bars,
• The quick delivery (usually within 48 hours),
• The success in their weight loss with the "change your size" programme,
• The time-saving aspect,
• The products designed for athletes that assist during training.

Examples of positive feedback on Feed

❌ They liked it less:

• Drink is a bit too bitter for some,
• In summer: the chocolate bars can get a bit melted,
• Some people didn't have a shaker and had to buy one specifically,
• A few people found it hard to digest these bars.

About Trustpilot

Since Feed has its own review platform, there are very few on Trustpilot: just 38 in total. The average rating for these reviews is 3.5 out of 5:

Overall, the feedback is quite similar to what is on the Feed website. Satisfied customers praise the great taste of the product, its value for money, and the effectiveness of the diet.

Customers who were unhappy experienced some isolated issues, such as problems with delivery or the taste of the bars.

My Verdict on Feed ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Before writing this review, I ordered meals from Feed multiple times and even completed a 16-day weight loss program! Here’s what I thought about the experience.

Was ordering from the Feed website easy?

It was very straightforward, really. The different ranges are easy to understand. As for the treatment, I quickly knew what to choose based on my needs.

One thing I found a bit unfortunate is that there is no information about where the bars and drinks are manufactured. Since it’s a French company, I would have liked to know if their factory is also located in France.

Source: Instagram (@feed.fr)

How was the delivery of my Feed meals?

With every order, I was really happy with the delivery. I always opted for home delivery with colissimo, and the packages arrived within 48 to 72 hours after my order, in excellent condition, which was really fantastic. The fact that the meals arrived quickly was very motivating for me to start my weight loss journey!

Were the meals good?

I really loved the light bars, especially the chocolate-brownie and chocolate-sesame flavours. Besides being convenient, these bars are easy on the stomach and dissolve very easily.

Initially, I had also ordered a discovery pack with some snacks, which were quite tasty. However, I didn't order them again as I found them to be a bit pricey for just some simple bites.

I also tried the shaken drinks, but I wasn't really impressed. I found the taste quite strong and lingering after finishing the drink. That's why, for the weight loss program later on, I only ordered the bars.

Source: Instagram (@feed.fr)

Did the weight loss treatment work?

Here’s my summary:

• I lost 4 kilos in 16 days by replacing my breakfast and lunch with a Feed Light bar,
• I felt lighter and did not experience any dips in energy,
• Regarding my bowel movements, I was not disturbed at all. I was also taking herbal treatment (blonde psyllium powder) to aid digestion, which worked just as well as having regular meals.
• The only thing that was a little challenging was having to eat a bar when I was having lunch with others. That’s why I sometimes swapped lunch and dinner, as suggested on the Feed website.

✅ To sum it up, I'm really happy to have discovered Feed. These little meals often make my life easier. Since they're a bit pricey and I'm quite the foodie, I tend to use them occasionally, especially when I'm looking for convenience and speed!
