Carnation Breakfast EssentialsHigh Protein Ready-to-Drink, Classic French Vanilla, 8 FL OZ Carton (Pack of 24)

This was always the go to shake; to get more calories and protein in my grandmother's diet. She preferred it over Cheerios in the morning.. I have also used it while running back and forth to the hospital. It tastes great. Just as I remember back in the day before school. Of course back then it was envelope of powder we mixed up ourselves. This is more convenient. Would highly recommend.

Yummy breakfast drink. Quick and easy

I have two teenage boys and they definitely don’t get enough vitamins and minerals through their regular diet so I really like the fact that they drink these because it gives them extra protein and vitamins plus it hydrates them. They love both the vanilla and chocolate flavors. The strawberry is hard to find But they love that too. I have been buying these for them for years.

My daughter loves these!! I always pack one with her lunch for school. Great flavor choices and she said she loves them. I highly recommend them.

Definitely not the best tasting shake but was a convenient thing to have for breakfast.

I also switched to Carnation when the price went up, and purchased a multi-pack as part of my monthly S&S. However, this month, when I got to the last six pack that came in a sealed case, I found bottles labeled "French Vanilla" were not, in fact Vanilla once opened. I contacted Carnation to inform them of the mislabeled product I received, and they blamed Amazon for the factory error and refused to even acknowledge their mistake. So be aware that if you also get a bad product in a sealed multi-pack, purchased through the Carnation Storefront on Amazon, rather than a 3rd party seller, Carnation will not care and will do nothing to make things right. This is clearly not an error on Amazon's end, and had to have happened at the factory. But I did not even get an apology from Carnation when I contacted them. I will NOT be purchasing any Carnation product ever again, as they obviously care nothing about the customer receiving a quality product that corresponds to what the label says it contains.EDIT: Amazon CS made this right, despite it NOT being their fault at all.EDIT: Carnation came back later, horrified by my first response from their CS. They wanted ALL the information about lot number, etc. and promised to thoroughly investigate the issue. I am satisfied with their eventual response, have resubscribed as a monthly S&S product, and have not had an issue since. I was glad to have something nutritious that did not need refrigeration during the extended power outage and food shortages after Hurricane Milton. Fact is, this Carnation product is nutritionally identical to Boost, and it remains to be cheaper as an S&S Item. Yes, they are better cold, but they are not bad warm when your only other alternative is MREs distributed by FEMA. I am going to put a couple of six packs of this in my Hurricane Kit after discovering its utility.

Good Good quality

I use these in the mornings at the office because I’m not a big early breakfast type of person but this conveniently gets some nutrients in your body before lunch. Also great as a healthier midnight snack alternative.
