I don't see why you couldn't heat them up. I have the RTD chocolate ones. Could be poured into a mug and microwaved I guess?

You know you don't have to use shakes at all, right? If you don't like shakes then just don't have them.

Most powdered shakes are 100 times better if you make them in a jug blender with tonnes of ice.
Also I add extra cocoa powder/coffee granules/sugar free syrups to enhance them and would have them occasionally for a change at breakfast.
I prefer them made that way to the RTD which always taste plastic to me.

I think they are meal replacements, hun - but I tried them for a week or so and found they filled me up quickly, but then I was hungry an hour later

I've used them as either. I'm not sure if they're intended to be snacks as well as meal replacements but they're 149 calories, 15g protein and 9g fat so are an ideal snack IMO!

I usually have some nuts or cheese with it if it's going to be a meal.
