Carnation Breakfast Essentials Powder Protein Nutritional Shake Drink Mix Packets, Rich Milk Chocolate Breakfast Shake, 10 Count

Drink this every morning. Haven't been able to take my vitamins and minerals for the past 2 months. So I started drinking this for the last of my vitamin intake. I whip it in the blender and sometimes add couple slices of banana. YUMMO. I only wish they could lower the carbs. Is very filling also with just the right about of protein .If they could do that I'd drink it twice a day .

Been using instant breakfast for years! I've never liked to wake up and eat, so for those who aren't ready to eat first thing in the morning these are great! it leaves your belly full and when accompanied with milk gives you vitamins and good nutrition that you get energy from just like you do from eating a meal! it taste delicious, I prefer the chocolate flavor but they make a couple other flavors. they used to make a cappuccino flavor in a variety box that I loved but haven't seen it in years! Good bang for your buck and easy breakfast that can be on the go! you could also use this in between meals to hold you over.

this tastes pretty close to the original Carnation Instant Breakfast that I grew up loving as a kid. I don't know why they ever changed the name. They didn't need to. The taste is slightly different than I remember but it's still pretty darn good. Then again, I'm old now, LOL

Carnation instant breakfast is my answer to the many overpriced protein drinks that I've used through the years. I'm 67 years old. No nausea from strange sweeteners -just honest old-fashioned nutrition. I mix it with skim milk and the flavor is fantastic and I get a big protein payoff. It combines quickly and easily with the milk. I wholeheartedly recommend this product.

I was surprised at how good this tastes. I mix it up at night and put in the fridge overnight. I pack it in my lunch bag and its perfect whether I drink it at 8 AM or noon. I mix it in 16 ounces of milk which is twice the recommended amount, and it still has a nice flavor.

I first started drinking this in the 1960s when it first came out. Can you believe it. I just started again because I'm going through chemo treatments and I don't really like the nutritional drinks like boost or equates version. C Carnation energy drink is the best! it's delicious and it gives me all the vitamins I need. sometimes I'll even drink two in a day.

My Grandmother use to give me a glass as a kid! .. Loved it Then and Now! .. Taste is a really good chocolate flavor! To me it is more of a real cocoa flavor. Not a sweet, sweet tasting chocolate beverage, which is not what I want! .. I have become sensitive to milk so I mixed in ice water and tried. It is "Awesome"! .. I think this can be mixed with whatever you think might taste good to you. .. All the bottled/canned nutrition drinks have become too expensive. I am so happy that I remembered these from my childhood and tried them again. .. Still just as good, give me a boost nutritionally and a boost in savings😁! ..

I have a hard time finding a protein drink that doesn't have an aftertaste of protein. There are two brand names that I shop for but they're not always available for delivery. Carnation instant breakfast doesn't have an aftertaste plus it has a lot of supplements.

I buy these for my son to have with his breakfast in the morning to help increase his protein intake since he is a growing boy and an athlete. The shake has a good flavor and texture to it, chocolate being his favorite. He also prefers to mix the shakes with milk instead of water for better consistency and flavor.

The actual protein in the product is about 5g, not the 13g that is marked in bold letters on the front of the package. The 13g counts the protein in the milk that you are expected to mix this with. I am lactose intolerant but can sometimes have small amounts, and I am struggling with protein, so I took the chance on this mix to add protein. The problem? If you don't add it to the cow milk, you don't get the sweetener that is required for the flavor of the product, so it was just like drinking a cup of wet cement. It had no flavor and did not even mix well. I was still not upset, because at least I was getting 13g of protein -- except I wasn't. I was getting five, because I used oat milk, and they were giving themselves credit for milk that is not in the box. This is a lie made for people who struggle with budget and nutrition. You should not be able to include nutrition that is not in your product, just because you told the customer to mix it with something that would have the nutrients. This is like making a high protein meal and saying, "It's high protein if you add high protein meat to our meal!". It's fraud.
