Boost Plus Chocolate Ready To Drink, 8 fl oz bottles, Pack of 12
CUSTOMER REVIEW
I like to keep meal replacement shakes on hand for those times I can't prepare a meal. I use them mostly for breakfast, but have used them at other times, even at bedtime when my calorie count has been low for the day. They each provide different nutritional values, so you really need to read the labels. I have 3 of them next to me as I write this - Slim-Fast Chocolate Royale, Boost Glucose Control Rich Chocolate, and Ensure High Protein Shake Creamy Milk Chocolate. I have reviewed 3 potein powders that I have also used and included their nutritional breakdowns in those reviews. I like to know what the labels say, and I assume others do as well. Here are the ones I have here:

You can see that each one is different in serving size, amount of protein, and everything else. You need to know what is most important to you. For some it will be calories, others want to watch the protein either because they need more or because they need to avoid it. I find they all taste pretty much the same. Know what you need, read the labels, and select the right one for you. I do keep the Boost on hand more than the others. I prefer the low sugar and I like the convenience of the large box.
