yep, made by the same people who make Ensure. It's a high protein drink designed for people on dialysis. I get it through my dietition for half price. It's a little bit thick so the kahlua improves the consistency. I wouldn't recommend adding the kahlua for diabetics due to the caffeine and sugar content.

I went to lunch with a friend this afternoon and had a drink - tea with amaretto in it - that was good for a two hour nap but now I am ready for another one.
Hope the biopsy turns out alright boxman
