Stevia
From: | Aug 10, 2024
Why is there stevia? If you are adding sugar, why are you adding stevia? Please make an alternative or take it out.
My breakfast

I have loved this for years. I drink it daily. It’s easy, healthy and inexpensive. My review is part question really…suddenly the last 2 6 pack containers we bought have an aftertaste, similar to what sour milk tastes like. Has the formula changed?
Delicious
From: Michelle_6646a650a5b11 | May 17, 2024
I was prepping for a medical procedure and was allowed to drink, but not eat, the day before. I’m also lactose intolerant so I got the ready-made bottles. They were delicious and served me well.
Awesome

Its nice to drink, and it may be a weird taste for some people, but to make the taste better just put it in a cooler or a refrigerator!
Stevia is turnoff
From: | May 05, 2024
Will not buy this product since you put stevia in it. It’s not any better than the other chemical created artificial sweeteners and this also leaves a bad aftertaste and is not good for you

Bad after taste due to Stevia
From: | Sep 15, 2023
I went camping and thought this would be a great alternative to the powder mix I love so much. But NO, as soon as I drank one I knew it had STEVIA in it ! I can taste it and I hate it. To me it's as gross as Sucralose!
Allergic

Carnation Instant Breakfast Light Start chocolate
From: Rob_64550fd8d4ea3 | May 05, 2023
I have been drinking Carnation Instant Breakfast since it came out in the '60's! I am glad I can still order it over the phone because I can't find the powder in the packets in the store anymore.
