Carnation Breakfast Essentials Complete Nutritional Drink Cookies N Crème Flavor 8 oz Bottle 24 Ct

My daughter has always hated eating breakfast in the morning, so these Carnation Breakfast Shakes became our compromise—and now she absolutely loves them. They’re gentle on her stomach, have no weird aftertaste, and give her the energy she needs to start the day. Even my youngest sneaks sips, thinking it tastes like chocolate milk! We keep them stocked every month, and they’ve become our go-to for quick, easy breakfasts on school mornings. If you’re looking for a convenient option for picky eaters or need a milk alternative that still packs a nutritional punch, I highly recommend giving these a try.

These ready to drink Breakfast Essentials packs are amazing. I originally had the packets of mixable powder delivered to me every month which was fine, but they were starting to become a problem. I either didn't have the right milk (I exclusively drink skim milk), I'd try to pour the mix in the glass and spill the powder on the counter, or I'd have too much product. That's when I knew I had to make a change to the ready to drink version. These are so convenient and come in really interesting flavors. The thickness is just right, no need to mix, and the cookies n' creme flavor (which is actually my backup flavor) is so delicious. I highly recommend these, especially for people who are on the go.

I like the environmentally friendly containers in this brand of nutritional drink and the cookies and cream flavor is a bonus which many others do not offer. Competitive price and good flavor & consistency thanks.

They taste really good, my kids love them they drink daily, perfect for on the go. However the price has gone up drastically within a few months. The 1st time I purchased they were less than $20. 4 months later $25-$27 depending on flavor . I purchase 5 or more every month. If they continue to go up I will not purchase anymore, they aren't affordable.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:My daughter drinks this everyday for breakfast for the past couple years. Love the flavor and the product. She is not big on breakfast so this really helps her especially before school.

I absolutely LOVE these Cookies & Cream Breakfast Essentials Drinks. They are delicious, the flavor is the best you will find as far as nutritional drinks/shakes go, especially considering the fact that these have all the good vitamins & minerals in them, which can sometimes give shakes a slightly off putting medicine like taste, but not with these Breakfast Essentials. The flavor is by far the best around, the closest I've had is the Gatorade Shakes, but those lack all the vitamins & minerals that these have, which help support a healthy immune system, so although they are good, these are better, flavor and ingredients wise.They come delivered in a well secured box, easy to open, but solid enough to keep them protected during shipping. The new packaging is nice, the only major difference is the "Tetra Pak" cartons that they use now (As you can see in the Photos) opposed to the older plastic bottles. I prefer these new Tetra Pak drinking cartons, the packaging is improved, and they're easier to open as the cap is designed to break the foil seal for you (See Photos) as you twist it off/open. This makes it much quicker & easier to open and drink by not having to manually peel the seal off yourself, as sometimes those seals can be a bit tricky to pull off, especially if you don't have nails.Overall, these things are just great, they are good for a in between snack, good for something quick in the morning if you're in a rush, I usually have them with breakfast, or with a granola bar for a mid day snack. I find them to be great at all times of the day and would highly recommend them to anyone considering. I hope this helps!

Delicious and affordable but I am considered about the ingredients. I can't pronounce the majority of them, never heard or read about them either.

This is the only flavor that my son will drink! He has loved them for years and continues to drink them at the age of 18!
