[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never tried the vanilla and usually when we get the breakfast essentials, we always get the powdered ones. WOW! This readio to drink ones are delicious. Not only that, they are packed with nutrition. We ended up ordering cases online because my son likes the vanilla a lot. It's very delicious and perfect on the go!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Carnation Breakfast Essentials Rich Milk Chocolate has been a hit with my son. He loves the taste, and it’s a relief to know he’s getting essential nutrients, especially since he’s a picky eater. This drink has become a convenient and delicious way to supplement his diet, and we’ll be making it a regular part of his weekly routine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were really good. I will definitely he buying more of them. I will also be telling my friends and family about them. They have a great taste. They dont leave a nasty chalky aftertaste like most drinks like this do.

I never believed breakfast could give me the energy to make it to my lunch break after teaching 18 preschoolers, but Carnation has made me a believer! The chocolate taste satisfies my sweet tooth but gives me the nutrition to power through my busy day without any problem! Awesome choice for busy people and I would recommend this product to anyone and everyone! Keep the great products coming Carnation!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 11 year old and I tried this in Berry. My daughter said it reminds her of strawberry milk. Im not sure I totally agree, but it tastes good. I Prefer mine really cold and shaken. She likes hers room temperature and shaken. I recommend this to anyone who needs to get nutrition fast and easy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the classic vanilla flavor of the carnation breakfast essentials. I was amazed on how well it tasted! I was surprised that it didn’t have a chalky taste, it reminded me of a vanilla milk shake! Very delicious!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was not a huge fan of the cookies'n cream flavor and the drink overall was too sweet for me so I let my 16 year old son drink the rest. He on the other hand loved it. I wouldn't purchase this for myself again but if my son wanted more I definitely wouldn't deny him since it does have so many nutrients and he often misses breakfast due to leaving for school so early. Overall a decent product and I would reccomend for people with on-the-go lifestyle looking for a healthier alternative to typical convenient breakfast items.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This review is for carnations breakfast essentials. This is a nutritional drink. I tried the mixed berry flavor and thought it tasted very good. It has 21 vitamins and minerals , calcium and vitamin D and also protein so very good for you. It's great for on the go or enjoying at home.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The taste was ok but it was definitely too thick for my liking. The nutritional values are good but I was still hungry right after it’s kind of like having a thick milk shake without the sugar not for me

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have fond memories of Carnation breakfast products from growing up, so was interested in trying the pre-mixed version. This is in effect an instant breakfast. I suggest putting it in the fridge before using it. This is a good instant breakfast option for the a.m. when you need to just get started or out the door. I wish the ingredient list was easier to read, too small. I like that they use stevia, but the carbs are still to high at 41g. It is mixed berry flavor with 0% fruit. Probably better to go with the chocolate.
