Questions & Answers
There's a recommendation to use one packet per 4 ounces of water, but we've always used a packet per 6 ounces of water There are 8 ounces in each. In the morning at 4, it's thick pudding, in the evening at 8, it's watered down slush ice. The pudding stays thick for two or three hours both ways.
Due to the fact that it only contains modified corn starch and maltodextrin, it is gluten free regardless of its ingredients.
When it comes to expiration dates, I always stick to them.
The powder works very well and is very easy to use.
Selected User Reviews For Hormel Thick & Easy Instant Food Thickener, Nectar Consistency, 0.16 Ounce (Pack of 100)
The nurse in rehab has to give Mom thickened liquids to drink. In addition, she has been in rehab before where different brands were used. The kind that the rehab/nursing home uses is not one she likes. The Hormel Thickener does not seem to cause any problems for mom when she drinks thickened liquids (nectar thickness). Packets come one at a time. My own personal experience is that it is far superior to the rest (I also tried the other brands and they were both horribly sour and tasteless). Since she is on thickend liquids, I don't have to depend on what liquids rehab brings mom or if they forget she is on thickend A reliable and attractive alternative is now available to me! It is now possible for me to give her what liquids she wants because of Hormel Thickener, and hopefully she will become hydrated again.
We can easily take it with us when we go to a different place, and it mixes really well. This doesn't alter the taste in any way, he says. This is something I cannot obtain in a radius of 40 miles around here, so I'm thankful you carry it.
Having these handy is so convenient to carry around in his diaper bag so he can mix juice, almond milk, or toddler formula when we are out or at home without having to carry around a few bulky cans with him! It appears that there is no underlying flavor or weird texture, as my picky eater drinks this without any problem, unlike other brands that we have tried previously. I will definitely order again as soon as possible!.
I really liked, however, the individual packets, as I had a trip coming up. I used several packets for each drink, so slightly larger packets would have been better. When you need to thicken liquids to drink, this is a product that doesn't affect the taste, at least with the drinks I used it for.
of water, I mixed powdered milk to a light jello-like consistancy and it worked. I purchased this for use in the hospital when my elderly mom had just recovered out of the hospital. She was instructed not to eat the foods that had been sold to her but to use this to thicken all liquid meals before eating. This product formed a light jello-like consistancy in 4 oz. of water and served the purpose it was intended for. In other words, it does exactly what it should. My sincere thanks go out to.
My father was in rehab when I first used it. Having it with me while away from home will allow me to thicken liquid while During my recent visit to a restaurant, for instance, I used it. Although in that sense it is easy, it would be difficult to carry thickener any other way. However, no thickener is easy to use if you choose not to use it. Drinks clump up, and the consistency of the fluid changes throughout the meal so it's hard to guess how thick the drink will be in a few minutes Things are thickening or, strangely, getting Thickeners are a huge pain in the neck, too. Although they are not designed to be consumable, they make it possible for my father to drink When I cook at home, I add a little bit of the Thicken Up from Resource to maintain consistency, but it changes when I serve. Liquids can be made to be as thick or thin as you like through refrigeration, but they will thin or thicken according to your preferences.
I like it.
The difference does not affect the taste. My wife has dysphagia, so she can only drink liquids of a nectar consistency. There is no difference in the taste of the drink because this works well.
