I love Nestle's Rich Milk Chocolate breakfast drink! I remember always drinking it before heading to school in the morning hours. in other words, I was addicted to it when I was younger. I'd even have it to drink for Lunch and Dinner on rare occasions. The flavor is just so good, the quality of it and everything else is fantastic to me. My overall rating for this breakfast drink; The price isn't too bad, plus it's a healthy drink for everyone out there. I think it's a good way to get nutrition in you and it also has a great taste to it, which is not easy to find in nutrition drinks :) Overall, I give it a big 10 rating on this drink.

I've been buying Nestle Carnation instant breakfast for a few months. I always buy the milk chocolate flavor. I know these say "breakfast" but I've actually replaced other meals with this also, though I wouldn't recommend doing it more than once a day. Sometimes I'm in a hurry for breakfast (or lunch) and these are a nice alternative to hold me over until I can eat. There are other breakfast drinks out there but most of them are for those who are dieting and I've found they just don't taste as good, nor do they have the added benefits that Nestle Carnation breakfast does.

Overall, I think Carnation Instant Breakfast is a wonderful product. It has many positives and not a single negative! It's comes in sugar free as well as regular. It has vanilla, strawberry and chocolate as far as flavors go. It's easy to turn into a smoothie mixed with yogurt, fresh fruit or your favorite smoothie recipe. The best part, it's packed full of nutrients that your body needs.

I am not a breakfast person, by far! but I needed something to hold me over until lunch, when I started school. As I used to drink Slim Fast shakes a long time ago, I thought I would give the Carnation Breakfast Essentials a try. I selected the Rich Milk Chocolate flavor and didn't regret it for a moment. The powder dissolves pretty well in milk (though you may need to give it a fairly vigorous stirring to eliminate all small clusters of powder), and tastes smooth. There's no aftertaste, and the sweetness is lowkey. (This is NOT made with artificial sweetners, which is a huge plus for me.) On top of the delicious taste, it does seem to keep me from getting hungry for a few hours, until closer to lunch time, and the vitamin content has me feeling better rested, and more energized than I did before.

i have been on a diet for a while now, and i have these for breakfast almost every morning.  i am not a big fan of cereal, so these are perfect for me. the milk chocolate packets are my favorite, but they also have other flavors that taste just as delicious.  i usually mix the packet with skim milk in a blender with a banana and a few ice cubes.  it definitaly gives me alot of energy, and i feel full for most of the morning.  it also tastes amazing, and i sometimes even drink one for dessert if im craving something chocolatey.  You dont have to mix it with fruit, but i think it gives it a better taste.  i also use strawberrys sometimes, and the whole drink tastes like chocolate covered strawberrys.  i would definitaly recommend carnation instant breakfast drinks to anyone, especially if your trying to eat healthier.  i do think it is a little pricey for a box of the packets but its worth it.  i hope you guys decide to try these. i promise you will like them :)

This is by far the best thing you can have for breakfast.  Not only is it easy but it tastes delicious and it is good for you.  Who knew having chocolate for breakfast would be healthy.  I feel more energized and able to get through the day much easier after I have one of these for breakfast.  Also drinking a full glass of milk at least once a day because of this amazing concotion is great.  I feel so much better during the day and it is good for me.  I can't believe I have gone so long without finding this.  Also, if you go online you can often find great coupons for their products to make them more affordable.  Being a graduate student my budget is quite limited so I wrote the company a letter through snail mail and they sent me coupons as well as a form so that I can have 3 friends receive a free sample also.  How great is that, I don't think I could have asked for much else from them.  I cannot wait until I can go to the store and buy this breakfast for free.

I usually don't wake up in enough time to make myself breakfast, and if I skip it completely I am starving by 10 o'clock. Another problem that I have is that I don't like milk~ never have and I won't willingly drink it if it is plain white milk. But then I found Carnation Instant Breakfast. I remember drinking it when I was younger (my father would use any trick he could to get us to drink milk) but I don't remember it being this good!! I get the individual packets which usually come 10 to a box. Mix 1 packet with one cup (or so) of milk and you have a filling nutritious breakfast that only has 300 calories! I use the regular rich milk chocolate and miw with either 1% or 2% milk. I will either take it with me in the car on my way to work or drink it while I am getting ready. One of the only problems that I have had with the drink is that there is a slight aftertaste- almost chalky. But, it is very filling and tastes really good!!

One of my boys is a non eater.  I have desired for him to have protein of some kind every morning before he starts school and I want him to steer away from the over sugared cereal.  For a long time he ate oatmeal every morning with a little honey but then began to not want that.  He always has been one to not want to eat as soon as he gets up but since there is not much time to get ready before school, he would rather sleep than get up in time to let his stomach wake up. I hate to send him off with no food.    We tried this breakfast drink after giving up on everything traditional for breakfast. He will drink this breakfast drink in the morning before he goes and then later in the morning will eat a healthy snack.  I usually stay away from  the more processed type foods but I was desperate to find him something for the mornings.  This seems to work well.  He finishes it off quickly, seems happy and even will fix it himself instead of waiting for me.
