Carnation Breakfast Essentials High Protein Nutritional Powder Drink Mix | Rich Milk Chocolate

I love this breakfast drink! It mixes into milk or water really easily, without leaving any chunks of undissolved powder. The chocolate flavor really comes through, and it is very rich. It is more like drinking chocolate milk than most powdered drinks are. The nutritional content is great too. I especially love the good dose of iron and B vitamins. If you drink it on a regular basis, like I do, it is an affordable and easy to make breakfast treat that never gets old.

I love the flavor of this milk chocolate drink. I have many am pills to take, and I swallow them with this drink. Helps the pills go down easier, and coats my stomach so I have no issues with my meds.

I feel like I wouldn't be alive right now, if not for chocolate Carnation Instant breakfast. Yes, I still call it Carnation Instant breakfast! I've used this periodically for decades. In the 1970s, it got me through several years of junior high and High School, when it was the only thing I could eat or drink in the morning; because I would feel like I was going to throw up every day for several years when I was very tired and sleep deprived. That still happens to me as an extremely older adult! And, as a tired and busy old woman, I depend on this for the last few years and foresee it will be a staple in my diet for years to come. It's usually the only thing I have the strength to prepare when I am able to get up. I get some protein and energy; and the chocolate flavor is great. It helps satisfy my insatiable need for chocolate! The only issue I have is that the chocolate version can be challenging to get completely mixed. I believe it was within the last few years there was some sort of improvement, which I didn't notice; but I did notice it no longer mixed easily.

I had to stop drinking because of the high sugar content

The large size is harder to find but Amazon always has it. I rarely if ever eat breakfast because I do IMF. Sometimes life interferes and I don't get a regular meal but I can enjoy this. Now I realize that not all ingredients in this product is great for you. However, I can mix it up with regular milk in a larger glass, sit down and drink it to enjoy. It cuts my starving cravings and I get my daily dairy. Good backup instead of a candy bar and a Dr Pepper.

My kids like it

I enjoy both the RICH MILK CHOCOLATE & the STRAWBERRY. Both taste good and great for when you're late running out the door to work & don't have time to sit down for a full breakfast. CARNATION is a solid company with reliable and tasty breakfast items. I've been a long-time customer of over 20 years & will continue to be a loyal customer as well as recommend their products to others as well. It's hard to find STRAWBERRY flavor (my favorite flavor) but, thanks to Amazon, you can find STRAWBERRY & you can find it at a very reasonable price ...if you try to buy it in a regular grocery store ... they charge you an arm and a leg OR ... they force you to buy a "Variety Pack" ..and,again, it's very expensive. At Amazon, you can buy ONLY what you want ... in my case, I can just buy my favorite flavor---strawberry---and I can buy it at a reasonable price.Thank you Amazon for offering STRAWBERRY ... my favorite flavor ... without FORCING ME to have to buy a VARIETY PACK (of a bunch of flavors that I do NOT want to buy and I have NO interest in buying) ... it's so nice to be able to just buy (#1) the flavor that I want to buy, and (#2) to buy it at a reasonable and fair cost. I'd highly recommend this Carnation Essentials Breakfast powder AND to buy it from Amazon ... I've bought this item for 20 years & I've only found Amazon offers the STRAWBERRY alone (without FORCING you to buy other flavors that you do NOT LIKE and/or want to buy .... AND it offers the BEST price per unit per one-drink package.

Absolutely love Carnation breakfast drink. The vitamins give me a boost of energy. It’s the only protein vitamin drink that doesn’t upset my digestive tract. This is a frequent purchase for me.
