[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging is compact and easy to carry. The texture is smooth and creamy, just like regular chocolate milk. It doesn’t use artificial sweeteners, which is a plus for those who prefer a more natural taste. Nutritionally, it provides essential vitamins and minerals like calcium and vitamin D, making it a quick, healthy option for kids. While it’s a great on-the-go option for a midday snack, the portion size may be a bit small for adults seeking a more filling drink.

For years carnation breakfast essentials chocplate bottles have been my limited eater's breakfast. The entire taste has changed! It tastes like spoiled milk now. I hope they go back to the original formulation of this once outstanding product. Zero star

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the cookies and cream Carnation Breakfast Essentials Ready to Drink. I usually drink the chocolate flavored breakfast carnation drink. But this new flavor is really good too. I've been needing to change out flavors and I finally found the one I can change to!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this product to try. I was not impressed with the taste. Some people may like it but I didn't like it . I thought it tasted different I would have liked it if had been chocolate. Ut I just didn't like it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son actually used to drink these when he was a toddler, encouraged by his pediatrician since he needed more calories as a little guy. So I let him try these and asked for his feedback as a teenager now. He said it tasted more like a protein drink, not really like chocolate milk. We both love all the vitamins and good stuff added but ultimately he really didn’t like the taste.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the berry flavor of the drink, although I usually purchase the chocolate flavor. Being a bigger guy, this doesn't fill me up if i'm in a rush, but my kids love it and it is a great alternative to having them eating nothing for breakfast. The kids like to grab it on their way out to go to school. I would purchase again because my family likes it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We got this Carnation Breakfast Essentials Ready to Drink beverage in Cookies and Cream and it was really good! My kids both tried it and loved the drink! It was a great source of protein and calcium to start their day. I would definitely recommend this drink to start off you or your kids mornings. I look forward to trying other flavors as well!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This really packs a punch. I can really fill up on one of these and feel full for quite a bit! Another thing I love about them is they have so many vitamins and minerals and really help start your day off good. I usually will drink one of these and then in a few hours eat my lunch. Highly recommend to anyone who wants a satisfying breakfast on the go!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was a great way to start the day. I’m not much of a breakfast person as far as waking up and eating within the first couple hours. This was not heavy and kept me satisfied. I let my 7-year-old try one as well. He didn’t want to share one and asked for more the next day. He enjoyed it and I enjoyed the fact that it had some valuable nutrients in it. Perfect for on the go. I will definitely be getting more.
