I do not use these, but my Hubby does all the time. He suffers from a chronic illness and when he is having flare ups or other symptoms and can not eat, Ensure always does the trick and it helps him from losing too much weight (if you buy the High Calorie ones).

Great for on the go, but he says the only one that he can manage to drink is the chocolate flavor, because the other ones taste like chalk.

I dont like it at all. The texture is gritty and the taste is unpleasant. The no name brands are cheaper and taste way better.

I would recommend it. It doesn't taste very well for the Vanilla and the chocolate flavour but it is a quick and easy way to get all the required nutrients. I got this for my dad and grandmother. I would still recommend it but they should improve the taste.
