Ewww why drink this?

I received this free to try just as an FYI, so I thought I'd give it a shot. The 'Boost' brand is geared towards those who need added nutrition into their diets to supplement. They have a variety of products to help meet these nutritional goals and needs, but I must say, I've tried many of their flavours and products, and they're simply not very tasty nor delicious. These are 'supplements' and 'alternatives' to meals, let's be real. Most of the ingredients are artificial, and you can 'taste' the nutritional components. Overall, do these serve as nutritional supplements in lieu of real meals or vitamins that individuals may not be able to get otherwise? Sure.
Are they tasty and would I just buy them to drink otherwise? Nope.
