CARNATION BREAKFAST ESSENTIALS Rich Milk Chocolate 30-1.26 oz. Packets

I've been a fan of Carnation Breakfast Essentials (it used to be called Instant Breakfast) for around 65 years - no kidding. I'm 77 and I started using it in about 1958. It and I have been around for a long time. I used it originally as a breakfast substitute. Now I use it at night before going to bed as a night snack to cushion the maximum OTC dose of Naproxen and avoid stomach pains. The formula was changed recently and I think it's smoother and has a bit better chocolate flavor than before. I mix it with a cup of 1% milk. That makes it creamy and doesn't add a lot of liquid before bedtime. Sam's price for a box of 30 envelopes is unbeatable, and I always keep a spare box on the shelf.

I love that my 11yr old likes the way this tastes and it provides nutritional needs for him! He's so picky! When I realized he loved them, I ordered a few boxes!!!

Great value and great taste. Easy to mix into oatmilk for some extra fiber. Thickly chocolaty flavor. Love the added vitamins.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is super delicious. we use it almost every day in the mornings. I love its chocolate flavor, it's perfect to take with you when you travel. I recommend it and I will continue to use it . Just like I remember as a kid! The taste is great! Not gritty and dissolves easily. Kept me full and the packaging is convenient!

Not in stock at my Sams Club

The chocolate flavor is perfect for my picky palate. I enjoy an 8 oz drink most mornings & evenings.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked it. Not my toddler though. I like that it comes in separated bags. Less mess. Actually no mess at all. I like the way it tastes great value for the money

My mom bought this for me when I was in high school. Now i buy it for my granddaughter. Sometimes she skips breakfast and this is a healthy alternative when theres no time to eat a good breakfast or if shes just not hungry.

I used to be able to buy this in vanilla flavored but my Sam's Club now only carries chocolate. I was able to buy it online but had to pay over $5 for shipping, the reason for only 4 stars. It was great to taste the vanilla again, I only wish my store would carry it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Was kind of skeptical but the protein intake convinced me to try it out. Glad it was not too sweet. Great idea for a quick breakfast, enjoyed it with almond milk and ice.
