Mrs.
I can only say great things about this product. It provides great nutrition and my son loves the taste. He looks forward to having it every night. I felt so bad when I ran out that I now put it on automatic reorder.

Delicious and nutritious
I have been looking for something for my twins to drink in the morning along with their breakfast because they are not huge eaters in the early hours and this is absolutely perfect! It tastes just like chocolate milk when served cold. I love the different flavor varieties but chocolate seems to be the go-to in my house. Packed with vitamins and nutrients to give you that extra boost in the morning and hold you over until lunch. This is also great for my older son who takes medicine that supresses his appetite a little. Now i feel better knowing he is still getting the necessary nutrition every day when he drinks these.

Horrible taste only gave 1 star because I had to
Our son has Cystic Fibrosis and has been on this supplement boost 1.5 very vanilla for 6 plus years.This is what helps maintain his nutrition as CF children and young adults struggle to maintain their weight.When weight is compromised due to low nutrition,their lungs suffer the consequences.
So here we are due to Nestle wanting to be "healthy" with this new "improved formula" which many of the CF kids dislike like now he is loosing 2,000 calories a day.He loathes this new formula Vanilla Vortex .People who utilize these type of supplements dont need" healthier" options,they need something that is palatable,especially children.
So her we are trying to frantically find something else he will drink.
You screwed up Nestle in this mothers eyes.

Delicious Drink For My Kid
BOOST Kid Essentials 1.5 is a delicious drink for my child to enjoy when she just doesn't feel like eating a big meal. I love how there is two drinking options: either by pulling the tab and pouring or by entering a straw to sip it. This product has 27 vitamins and minerals which makes this a great option for malnourished children or children needing to raise their caloric gain. My daughter really enjoyed the chocolate flavor and she said it reminded her of drinking milk, water and chocolate milk together. I tried a sip too and thought it tasted fine and that it could pass as chocolate milk. I would recommend this product to my friends and family with children that could benefit from it.

Healthy Snack
Angelina loved this Vanilla boost. We found it easy to take with us in her lunch box. She wanted to take it to the park and loved the taste. She said it tastes like a milkshake. I love the fact that there are so many healthy vitamins in it for her since she is so fussy. I also am very happy that she loves the taste, now I know what to buy for her that is full of good nutrients. I did recommend Kid Boost Essentials to her daycare in hopes that they will start carrying it. I am pleasantly surprised at how well she liked it. Thank you so much. Angelina calls it the juice box with a milkshake in it.

Had to cancel all future orders
Nestle decided to change the formula for this product. We have been ordering this specific product for years. Now, our order shows up in different packaging and a different formula with no heads-up about the change. Our daughter will not drink it because of what she perceives is a drastic change in flavor. We are stuck with a case that is going to go to waste and have to now make purchases of a more expensive competitors product that she will drink.

Don’t fix it, if it isn’t broke!
Why change the Very Vanilla to Vanilla Vortex?? It was fine the way it was! Now, my kiddo who has ASD/Down syndrome (who doesn’t eat solid foods and gets all nutrition thru Boost) HATES the way it tastes. Refuses to drink it, and I’ve yet to find anything else he’ll drink (if you know kids with ASD, change usually is not a good thing) On day 3 of him refusing food, except for 1 kind of smoothie (which he can’t live off of) If you’re going to introduce a new flavor, maybe at least give people the option of the old one as well?

Not tasty, but it's nutritious
So, not one child in my household likes this lol. I'm not sure if it's just the strawberry flavor, I'm going to check for other flavors. I like the idea of a supplemental beverage, no one really gets all the nutrients they need in a day without conscious effort - unfortunately. That said, I took a sip of the strawberry as well and I can say it's not horrible, it's just tolerable. It didn't have the chalky taste I anticipated but it didn't taste like strawberry either. It didn't go to waste but there's definitely room for taste improvement. It might be better mixed in a smoothie? I was really hoping my kids would like it so I can be more sure they're getting what they need as far as nutrition.
