Ambronite Banana

A quick review of the Banana flavor of Ambronite. It’s less sweet than Berries. In a very good way. Now that I have been updated with the correct amount of Ambronite to add, the texture is pretty much spot on. …

Ambronite: How much to use?

Ambronite: How much to use?

The Ambronite 10-meal packages sent to me are based on 160 calories servings. Umm… that hardly qualifies as a snack. That’s $49 per bag. There is no way you’ll get 10 meals out of each bag. 3.125 scoops = about …

Huel versus Ambronite (banana, berries, and apple ginger)

I am currently using Huel. I am a very strong proponent of Huel. For a long time, I wished I could order it – as the FDA did not approve it’s sale in the United States – until very recently. …

PRW Grail it’s here

I’ve long loved my PRW 1300t-7v. It’s gorgeous but it lacks the version 3 sensor cluster. My 3100 has that but it’s a negative display and basically everything on it is black. The band is comfortable but it’s not metal. …

A Huel™ Customer!

I have long envied those living in parts of the world where Huel could be delivered. For a very long time, Huel could not ship to the United States because of some FDA work that needed completed first, shipping location …

So I am traveling from Chicago to San Jose on United Airlines, and I was struck by the lack of small display on the back of any seats. Surely something would drop from near the light controls? No. Touted on …
