Love the Real Meal's chocolate pudding!!

That chocolate pudding outstanding... I'd happily devour that at home for dessert.

Only issue with Realmeals is price, that new venison meal was $21 on a certain website.

Radix does a 6 box for $53, works out to be $9 ish each. Great value, taste isn't on par with realmeals yet imo.

In regards to meat. If you can picture an Olympic cycling team from NZ, they're traveling to Egypt for an international event. They're fully loaded with all of their meat based Radix meals which give them the exact nutrients they need to perform. On arrival to Egypt they have all of the meals confiscated as meat is banned in said country. This obviously creates a huge problem for international athletes travelling worldwide. With plant based there is no issue with this. Each country has their own strict rules around meat products being brought into each country, its a major headache for a brand like Radix.

I had some back and forth with Ryan when he first started moving to meat free. The reason you give here wasn't one he used at the time, however I'm sure it's based on a culmination of things.
The point I tried to make to him is that the super refined, vegetarian meals generally taste like crap and have poor texture. Some people want to enjoy their dehy meals but Ryan obviously thinks this number of people is not worth catering for. It's certainly helped the likes of Real Meals gain market share.....

Had my first Real Meal the other day on the hill.. was pretty good, not to mention biting into actual identifiable meat!
