New recipe taste bad. Very bad after taste

My daughter loved the old chocolate recipe and bottles. She would drink 2 a day. I purchased the new bottles because that was all that was available at the super market. She spit it out and said it was nasty. We all tasted the bottle and there was a terrible aftertaste. I returned them to the store assuming they had gone bad. The next 6pack tasted just as bad when we all tasted it. She refuses to drink them now. We had an old bottle with the original recipe and metal cap. I gave it to her and she drank it up. Please go back to the original chocolate flavor.

Nasty

This product has a nasty chalky taste. Pediasure tries mask by an overly sweet strawberry taste, that leaves a nasty after taste. Paremts, test drink before trying to force this down your child. Not even an adult can swallow the loan expect a child to drink this.

Taste great!

My daughter is the pickiest eater and sometimes I feel that she isn’t eating enough. So I have her a Pediasure as a snack and she loves it. She loves the vanilla and strawberry flavor. I feel confident that she’s getting some extra help growing when she drinks it. Just recently I started also giving it to my 20 month old son. He is a little behind on his height and his pediatrician recommended.

Gained weight but taste has changed recently

My son has gained over 7 lbs since October 2017!! He drinks a shake daily and has always enjoyed them. We recently bought two cases and something has changed with the taste. It’s very disappointing as I have been reading other recent reviews from parents experiencing the same complaint from their child. It’s a shame if the recipe has changed because now we’re having to try other brands out.

Product has definitely helped with weight gain.

My son was 10 weeks early and at 2 is still extremely small for his age. He now asks for his "chocolate shake" twice a day and drinks every drop. He is slowly gaining weight and we are confident it's keeping him as healthy as he can be. I highly recommend!

PEDIASURE ROCKS

I have to hide this because both of My great grandsons 2 and 3 search like it's a game to find them because they always want more more more! And one is so picky I never thought he would even taste it but he loves it! Thank you so much for making it taste so awesome and it's so healthy for the little ones ! You definitely hit every check mark with this stuff!!

Great taste

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our little one doesn't eat much at all and his weight and his well being are always a top priority. He loves the taste of these and will gladly drink a 'shake' even when he says he isn't hungry. I am very grateful to be able to supplement his diet with needed vitamins and protein

I love this product

I have a five year old with autism as well as a sensory processing disorder. My child is a very picky eater and only eats about five different foods . Pediasure helps give him the nutrients he misses during meals . 2x a day and he is in the 70% percentile for his height and weight for his age group.

Red 3?!?!

Sugar, vegetable oil and artificial dye...marketed to help our children grow?!?! I’m ashamed to say I used to give this to my son every day, but after finally reading this and educating myself I’ll never buy it again or any of the other products like it out on the market.

You changed the formula and the packaging, and not for the better.

My son is small. We've been giving him Pediasure for nearly two years now. He's managed to gain four whole pounds in that time. He's four. You recently changed the formula, and he no longer likes it as much, so he went from one or two a day to one or two a week. I guess we'll be looking for something else that is calorie-dense that he likes better. Also, disappointed with the new bottle packaging design since it has more plastic and is more wasteful. You might want to look into larger bottles instead of only offering single serving bottles; unless, of course, you're looking to keep them as expensive as possible. And yes, they are quite expensive.
