Pickle you're posting a lot of redundant questions. Please use the search function. You will likely discover 20 threads on carnation instant breakfast as it is wildly popular with hikers.

Ask all the questions you want. Nobody has to answer if they don't want to.
Regarding the search feature, it seems different depending on which app you are going thru to access White Blaze. I know of two apps: Tap-a-Talk and the Whiteblaze app. I haven't figured out how to search in Tap-aTalk. I can search in the White Blaze app. But Google has the most robust search ability. I think you put the forum name in single quotes followed by the search string. If I'm wrong about the format, please chime in. I would also be interested in knowing which app yall prefer to use to access Whie Blaze on your phone. Forum runner was mentioned in another thread, but it is not available in the Google Play Store.
Yes.
Yes.
With a twist.
Dry measures according to the package directions. I buy in bulk.
I serving Carnation Essentials
1 serving Nido Whole Milk
1 serving Pea Protein
1 serving Cafe Bustelo Instant Coffee OPTIONAL.
DRY ingredients in 1 ziplock snack bag.
2 snack bags and two single serving instant coffees in a ziplock Pint Freezer Bag.

Sorry for posting something I couldn't find won't post anymore questions-will just read other hikers questions from now on.?
Or she sorry don't know for sure.
Maybe it's me but this forum has slowed down in the last couple years, I would think any post would be good.
Several years ago, Whiteblaze seemed to be THE place on the internet to go to ask hiking related questions.
The only competition seemed to be Yahoo groups, and they sucked (difficult to use, too email-intrusive).
But today, lots of people already know how to use Facebook. So learning to use a Facebook 'group' is a no-brainer compared to the complexity of Yahoo groups.
So today, I'm seeing the questions that used to get repeated here in WB getting repeated in the targeted groups on Facebook.
Folks are trying to be helpful. Dont let it bother you Pickle. I've done like you've done and have as others have.
Yeah you can use H20 in the Carnation Essential but it does cut down on the cal/oz and overall nutrition. It does taste and texturize 'watered down' with skim/no fat milk or water. When using it in the past with water rather than milk my perception was that it was harder to integrate the dry mix into liquid particularly with coldish water. Maybe use warmed water?

I've liked this stuff since the old days when it was called "Instant Breakfast." And as others do, I add Nido, which is whole milk.
Been here since 2003. Duplicate threads are common and always have been. Search function barely helps ... but is sure better than Facebook's!!!

Exactly correct.
On a slight tangent, when I worked in the ICU, some of our patients were gastric bypass and short bowel sufferers. A couple Gastrointestinal specialty Docs routinely prescribed carnation instant breakfast with whole or skim milk, or goat milk depending on caloric needs and allergies. They felt this stuff with added real milk was nutritionally equal or superior to the canned “Ensure” type products, and their many formulated relatives made by pharma companies. It was also pennies rather than dollars for the patients when they went home, greatly increasing the possibility of nutritional compliance, and ultimate healing.
Im sure the recipe has chanced somewhat, but this product is still among the better choices for nutrition commonly available.
I like a packet of French vanilla with 1/4 cup Nido, 1tsp of instant coffee. Shake till smooth. I keep this concoction in the car, in a baggie in the clean shaker bottle. Stop for some ice water at the gas station. much better than Micki D’s in a pinch, and the local Starbucks (my occasional splurge) has become very spotty in quality. This would work great on trail.
Happy hiking. There will always be trolls, most turn out to be great people who are having an off moment, a few really do belong under a bridge.
