Been using this for decades

We always bought the variety pack because that was the only way to get the chocolate MALT flavor. Now you can't get it at all. It would be nice to be able to have that again. I'd buy a case of it! :-(

Bring back the original recipe!

I have had breakfast essentials for over 10 years straight. This “improved” recipe sucks. Its watery, doesn’t dissolve well, and tastes awful. I will not be buying it anymore unless they being back the old recipe. Lost a lifelong customer.

Best way to start your day!

I have been drinking carnation instant breakfast since at least 2004 and they never disappoint, Vanilla flavor isn't great but that delicious chocolate concoction fuels my body every morning.

bad new chocolate flavor

The new blend for the Rich Milk Chocolate flavor makes me physically ill and doesn't taste good anymore. Please, please bring back the old blend! I rely on this stuff for my nutrition and health!

Delicious chocolate drink

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Big box with 10 packets. Tastes like chocolate milk but is much healthier. Lots of protein and vitamins. Great way to start breakfast. My kids also love!

Great Taste

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried the mix before but not the already made. The French vanilla flavor was just right. Great tasting.

The new formula tastes awful

I have been drinking this for many years, but sadly will not be drinking it anymore. The new formula is very bland and salty. There is no chocolate flavor to it.
