    J'ai eu la chance d'essayer ce produit gratuitement #gotifree grâce à ChickAdvisor. Au départ, j'étais septique car habituellement, la saveur Vanille ne m'attire pas vraiment.

    J'ai été agréablement surprise. La poudre se dissout rapidement et facilement dans le lait. C'est vraiment un déjeuner sur le pouce. Il comble l'appétit quelques heures après le déjeuner. Je l'utiliser comme collation. Facile à apporter sur la route, il convient à tous les modes de vie, surtout pour ceux qui sont pressé.

    Le breuvage est onctueux et sans grumeaux. On a l'impression de boire un verre de lait, mais avec de la saveur.

    J'adore. Seul bémol, à prix régulier sur une base quotidienne, cela peut s'avérer dispendieux. Mais si c'est mieux pour la santé, pourquoi pas!

    When I buy instant meal, I usually go for chocolate favor because I find it the "safer" flavor. So, I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical when I received vanilla instant meal

    The first time I prepared it, I mixed it and drank it right away. Compare to other protein powder and instant powder meal, the Carnation is very easy to mix; it dilutes very easily and quickly.

    The flavor is good but I was expecting the mixture to get thicker... Finally, after my 3rd liquid breakfasts, I found out that, if you wait a few minutes after mixing the powder with the milk, the mixture becomes thicker.

    The only downside for me, is that one pouch (mix with 1 cup of milk), doesn`t make a satisfying breakfast. I have to add a banana to the mix or prepare 2 pouches for it to be sustainable until lunch time.

    Overall, great product, good price, 10 portion per box (Vanilla, chocolate, strawberry or mix)

    J'aime vraiment ce produit! Comme je consomme rarement du lait, je l'ajoute a mon cafe . Le Breakfast essentials a la vanille que j'ai reçu remplace le sucre et la creme et donne un bon gout crémeux au cafe! J'aime bien l'idee qu'il contient plusieurs vitamines et me donne une dose d'energie. J'en acheterai aussitot cette boite terminee car je ne peux plus m'en passer ;) #gotitfree

    Thank you Chick Advisor for the opportunity to try this Carnation Breakfast Essentials Powder Drink Mix (Vanilla) for free. My whole family loves it. What a time saver when we have rushed mornings. It's packed with vitamins and minerals so I can feel good about giving it to them. I am a huge fan and will be purchasing this product again and again. I have the world's fussiest 7 year old and she loves it. What a great opportunity to find something new that she likes. Thank you Chick Advisor and Carnation.

    I don't often eat breakfast and if I do it is later in the day (10-11am) and no healthier than a muffin or a restaurant breakfast sandwich. I am not a morning person and dont have the motivation to make something decent, so I am always looking for something to help out with that aspect. I was hopeful with this drink mix but it did not meet my tastes at all.
    It is made with milk, which is a good thing, but they says to use whole milk, which is too heavy for me and not to my tastes. I mixed it with the 2% I typically buy and it ended up tasting like melted cheap vanilla ice cream. It was a little thick, slightly yellow in color and did not smell or taste like i was making a healthy meal choice.
    It did not help me skip that 10 am muffin and i actually had an extra cup of coffee to help get over the taste, so more calories consumed than necessary when I am trying to cut them down.
    I tried it again the next day, and still had to choke it down. Definitely unimpressed, and slightly disgusted.

    Nous avions très hâte de tester ce produit. Nous avions essayé la saveur mocha réduite en sucre (en bouteille) et nous l'avions beaucoup aimé. Nous avions donc de hautes attentes, mais nous avons été très déçus. Cette saveur était vraiment très sucrée et la goût de vanille était artificiel et bizzare. Moi, mon mari et mes filles y avons tous goûté, mais personne n'a voulu en prendre une deuxième gorgée et j'ai dû jeter le restant du verre.

    As a university student, my 8am classes mean I rarely have time to eat breakfast. That's why I love these Carnation Breakfast Essentials Shakes. They're super easy to make and by super easy, I mean they take less than 60 seconds! So, if you're about to miss the bus, you will even have time to make these! You just have to shake the powder up with some milk and you're ready to go.
    I got to try them in the Vanilla flavour and I was a bit worried to see how I would like it. Sometimes these breakfast shakes can be chalky or powdery or too sweet. But, the vanilla flavour was actually really yummy! I am so tempted to try the other flavours now!

    J'ai eu la chance d'essayer les sachets "Essentiels du déjeuner" par Carnation. Toujours plaisant de recevoir un produit gratuity. J'ai bien aimé le gout du produit. Celui que j'ai reçu est la saveur vanilla. Pas trop sucré, juste parfait. Souvent avec la routine du matin, je n'ai pas beaucoup de temps pour le déjeuner, ces breuvages sont une bonne alternative à mon manqué de temps. Au final, j'ai adore! Merci!!!!!!

    I #gotitfree from Chickadvisor, which was a full sample in a box with 10 packets! Very easy to make, you just stir in contents with a cup of milk. Stir well, the first few times, I drank a cup with clumps of the powder that hadn't dissolve yet. Tastes very good, I opted to use Soy milk. Has many benefits including 18 different vitamins, calcium, iron and protein. Would purchase this in stores, as it was my first time trying it and I'm quite pleased with it.
