5.0 out of 5 stars Hard to find items have a home on Amazon
Not much to review except it's the usual Carnation in the delicious strawberry flavor that I drank as a kid. It seems all the strawberry available in the stores these days is in a mixed/variety package and only 2-3 packets of this flavor are put in the usual 10-packet variety box along with 4-5 packets of 2 different chocolate flavors. After searching a half dozen grocery...

2.0 out of 5 stars Major Price Increase!!
I purchased 3 3-box cartons of Instant Breakfast through Amazon in March 2008. They were priced a third of what they are currently. Too bad, it was convenient to order from Amazon for this, but apparently "buy locally" is the only option I can afford.

It seems all the strawberry available in the stores these days is in a mixed/variety package and only 2-3 packets of this flavor are put in the usual 10-packet variety box along with 4-5 packets of 2 different chocolate flavors. After searching a half dozen grocery stores for the strawberry only box, I gave up and turned to Amazon, which thankfully stocked it. I'll be ordering more soon. Cheers to Amazon. (note: this item requires 3 boxes--so minimum order appears to be 30 strawberry packets for the $12-13 price.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious, hard-to-find product, May 10, 2007

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I'm glad to see these on Amazon. I scour the grocery stores for the strawberry flavor, but it's hard to find. Most times, if they have it at all, it's part of a variety pack. I just want the strawberry. I've gone so far as to order them directly from the manufacturer.

The flavor of these is great. I'm not a big breakfast person, and most breakfast foods are heavy and greasy. Eggs get boring after a while, but strawberry instant breakfast is always a treat. It's quick to make and easy to take along if you want - just put it in a travel mug. It has vitamins and minerals and great taste. I mix it with organic whole milk and I'm set until lunch time. I've used it for years when I'm on a diet - the taste is something to look forward to, it gives me a little boost, and it's so quick that it keeps me out of the kitchen.

I was hesitant to purchase this at first because I thought it might turn out too thick and taste nasty. But I decided for a few dollars, it was worth giving it a shot. I'm so glad I did! It tastes exactly like strawberry milk and it's a great breakfast substitute for anyone who would normally rather skip that meal. I've also heard it's great for getting more nutrients and calories in children that don't like to drink milk or eat much.

5.0 out of 5 stars Carnation Instant Breakfast - Strawberry, October 23, 2009

If you're one of those people who doesn't like to do breakfast, but you don't want to suffer the lack of energy skipping breakfast brings - this product just might be the solution? It's worth a shot. Of the flavors, Strawberry is the best - my opinion - and I purchase the vanilla as an alternative so that I don't tire of just the one choice. Your tastes may differ so you might want to start with the Variety package???

I havent been able to find the strawberry flavor in years, I had to resort to buying the variety pack to get strawberry. I love that it is available on Amazon and delivered right to my door.

My 4 yr old daughter never eats breakfast and she is a picky eater.From where we come from,we are not used to cold milk out of the refridgerator,plain warm milk is not my daughter's favorite.After I found out abt this product,I didn't have to look bk.This replaced the nesquik I was giving her earlier.This is less sugary and for vegetarians like us,this was a great source of proteins.I would like the product to be even less sugary(especially the strawberry flavored) so that even I can drink it and it will be a great meal substitute.Overall a great product for picky eaters.....!!

I love this product. Strawberry is one of my favorite flavors. This product sort of reminds me of nestle quick in strawberry but its for grown ups. For some reason I could not find this flavor at any of the local stores in town so thank you Amazon. I am using it to help me get something quick, nutritious, and tasty. It has a nice smooth strawberry flavor and I know its good for me. Hopefully it will help me loose weight.
