PediaSmart Dairy Vanilla Complete Nutrition Beverage Powder Mix, 12.7 Oz (Pack of 1) | | USDA Organic | Clean Label Project Verified

I bought this product because I've been using pediasure for the past year and just now realized how bad the ingredients in it are. Upon further research, I felt that pediaSmart was the best organic option for our price range. Literally just got it in the mail and made a bottle for my non-vegetable/fruit eating 2.5 year old son. I read a lot about the difficulty in mixing this and I did have to put in the blender after unsuccessfully attempting to shake the bottle to dissolve the powder fully, which is okay. I then tasted it myself because many reviews stated how awful the taste was. To my surprise, it tasted AMAZING! Creamy, smooth and just yummy! I've tasted pediaSure before and I would NEVER be able to swallow it, it tasted that bad! I personally put 4oz of whole organic milk and 3oz of water and 3 scoops of pediaSmart. It was just wonderful, but that was my opinions which doesn't count. I just gave it to my son and he drank it ALL. Success!!! Hopefully no side effects occur such as constipation, puking or anything else...I'll write an update if anything changes. So far so good and I feel so much better knowing that my son isn't drinking any harmful ingredients.

I tried forever to get my girls (18 months and 36 months) to drink pediasure and they just wouldn't go for it. And the ready made bottles are too expensive to have them drinking a few sips and wasting it. I have been trying every product I could think of to find something other than store brand vitamins that their bodies won't likely absorb. They are such picky eaters and it is so important to me that they get all the proper nutrients they need in order to thrive. This product is a godsend. Finally something that they will drink other than the Nido Kinder by Nestle. I wasn't too sure about the nutritional quality of that product. With this one I know they are getting the essential nutrients they need and they actually finish their servings. It also hasn't caused any constipation like some of the other products we tried. I'll be sticking with this brand. I like that they like it and I love that it has the vitamins and nutrients I was looking for.

Our child prefers it made with chocolate milk

This product now costs $21.99. That is ridiculous. We also received a can that smelled like petroleum when we opened it. We have cancelled our Subscribe and Save.

I bought this as a cheaper option to the powdered pediasure he is use to, he is 11 and unfortunately he instantly tasted the difference and didn't want to drink it. I wasn't thrilled with the fact that you have to use 3 scoops to get 240 calories the scoop is big and the can isn't that big so you're using so MUCH. The plus side is you can use all of these powders to bake with and its less detectable than milkshakes, I baked this into muffins and add it to pancake mix etc and he has no idea! So its still usable but im not sure if im going to re-order this

My daughter is almost 2 and at about the 5th percentile. I am trying to get some extra calories in her to gain a few pounds. She is super healthy, active and smart but her ped would like a couple pounds on her. She is not a big eater mostly likes to snack on things throughout the day rather than sit and eat a meal. I gave her this drink straight and she was not a fan. She was a breastfed baby(still is a few times a day) and never had a bottle and therefore never took to milk in a cup either. She is the kind of toddler who will only drink water in her sippy cup. Well when I gave her this in a cup and she didn't want it I was pretty discouraged since its something that could be so good for her. I have finally gotten her drinking smoothies and being excited about them. I use this drink as the milk base and add blueberries and bananas and she is a HUGE fan. So if your little ones aren't taking to it plain I suggest making a smoothie with this :).

New formula,my boys enjoy it! It's good for the price,does take a bit to mix but gets the job done!

My daughter loves this but when I first started buying it it was about 12 dollars. Then it went to 16, and about 4 days ago it was 19 2 days later 21! What is going on? The price has doubled and everything about the product is the same. It’s a shame because it’s come to the point where I have to find something else.Would love a bigger container since a serving size is 3 scoops. You run through a can very quickly. Disappointed.
