Nestle Carnation Instant Breakfast

[VydorScope]

In the effort to find some foods that my toddler will eat, we asked his doctor about Carnation Instant Breakfast... we did not ask him if it was gluten-free, just if it would be somthing work looking into, and he called Nestle himself and talked with them and got us this info! Talk about going the extra mile for your pateints! We did not expect him do to dall this, but he did.

Yeah, but notice that only strawberry is gluten-free in the ready to drink forms.

Can I just say when I saw the post, the jingle from the 80's stuck in my head... (I think it was the 80s...) "Carnation Instant Breakfast-------You're gonna love it in an instant." That's my contribution to this thread

Can't say I remember that one, Jen. But I still hear the Ovaltine commercials and they bug me. My husband loves Ovaltine, but I can't say I'm sad that we can't have it.
