Yuck, I think Carnation instant breakfast has aspartame and cholesterol.  I'll stick to rice milk or soy milk.  Spirutein has good flavored soy/nutrition powders that are much more nutritious if you want an added flavor or punch.  Tofu or a frozen banana can make it creamier if you want.

Carnation breakfast has dairy, too

Yes, that's where the cholesterol would come from.

I make this all the time with soy milk.  The banana/date combination is absolutely heavenly.  This is one of my favorite shakes/smoothies ever.  You can add some maple syrup if you want it sweeter.  Tahini is great with it too.
