Carnation Breakfast EssentialsHigh Protein Powder Drink Mix, Rich Milk Chocolate, 10 Packets, 6 Count

Long time user. Nice chocolate flavor, mixes well, great source of supplemental protein

Tastes like I remember from childhood. Helpful for anyone struggling to maintain nutrition but can't eat much.

I use this along with a bottle of owyn and a bit of milk. The result is a thick, chocolate drink filled with protein and keeps you filled till lunch.

When I was on chemo I couldn’t eat so I called the pharmaceutical company and they suggested Instant Breakfast and was able to get protein, vitamins and minerals, vitamin D and calcium. I’m in that situation again and started the Instant Breakfast again. I really like the taste of the chocolate.

We needed to increase the calorie and protein intake for our toddler. Initially we were told to try pediasure, but he refused to drink it. We consulted a dietician and were told to try this. No issues with palatability here. He loves this stuff. The doctor has also been very happy with his progress. We are much less stressed knowing he is getting protein. Only thing is I wish they sold the high protein formulation in the tubs to reduce waste.Pro tip- it mixes in really well using a handheld milk frother.

This tastes exactly the same as the regular chocolate. I am trying to increase my protein so that's why I got this. My only complaint is that it doesn't dissolve very well compared to the regular chocolate instant breakfast. I just stick it in my blender instead. That encourages me to mix in my other healthy stuff too (protein, colostrum, sea moss). But in a pinch just mixing this with a spoon, stirring won't fully dissolve it.

Value for the money

I love these packets and that they have extra protein. They're great for my kids
