Many members will also drink Carnation Very High Calorie nutritional drink. It is sold in cases thru the Amazon link on the forum pages. If I remember correctly, a case of 24 runs about $46 which includes S&H. In some areas a local Walgreens or other drug store may order it and have it in stock upon request. This wasnt an option where I live and I found it very easy to order it online.
