Guest guest Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 I prefer the chocolate, but I have to confess it doesn't seem to matter to my son - he just doesn't care for either. I tried mixing it in applesauce, with a little water - pudding-like, in the blender with ice and almond milk, in chocolate coconut milk yogurt . . . nothing worked. Finally, what we did was to mix it in the blender with about 4 oz of almond milk and feed it to him with a large medicine dropper. Worth the trouble! You may not have as big a problem with your son - mine just doesn't care for smoothies or shakes of any kind! Dianne > > I am going to order NV for my apraxic son who is almost 3. He is a very picky eater and I am wondering which flavor ppl recommend, the choc or vanilla? Does one taste better than the other?

Guest guest Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 We just got the chocolate, I haven't tried the vanilla yet. We mix it in milk and he drinks it right up. It's not that much different than carnation instant breakfast, I don't think. > > I am going to order NV for my apraxic son who is almost 3.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 my son absolutely hates smoothies or shakes, so I was having SUCH a hard time getting the nutriveda into him because as i've said, i think he's part camel. what has now helped is hot chocolate. This is something that my son and husband have everyday but i was having trouble blending it in so it was smooth enough. I found a milk frother at ikea and all my troubles ended!! We are even now at the point that i just put in a half teaspoon of hot chocolate mix and i probably dont even have to do that. But i put the half teaspoon with enough hot water to mix it, pour in cold milk and then add the nutriveda and use the milk frother...voila! it's been working very well that way and the milk frother (1.99 at ikea) makes it very smooth, way better than my blender. sandy /p.s. that was the best 3.99 cdn that i ever spent!!! ________________________________ From: Dianne <degarrettjones@...> Sent: Mon, April 19, 2010 2:30:44 PM Subject: [ ] Re: NV Flavor?  I prefer the chocolate, but I have to confess it doesn't seem to matter to my son - he just doesn't care for either.
