Do you use them when you don’t have time to cook or don’t want to? Do you use them to avoid gaining weight? What is your opinion about their potential health implications?

    I tried to get into it, but between finding recipes and washing the blender, it wasn’t less effort or money than just making a sandwich. I did not find it helpful as a diet aid, because I would still be hungry after a “meal replacement.” If I don’t have time to cook, I don’t have time to blend. If I make a bunch in advance, I can just as easily make a bunch of salads in containers.

    I’m already fat and disabled, though, and I work from home, so factor that into my experience.
