I know, this is an all Filipino question. But i really prefer the chocolate drink milo to ovaltine, ive been drinking it since childhood and i love the taste. it also gives me energy for the day. Or maybe im just used to how it tastes like. Drinking milo completes breakfast.. the only time i think i like ovaltine is when it's formed into candy (Ovalteenies). How about you? what have you been drinking since childhood?

I have the same situation as mapuang. Now that i have grown, i prefermilo cause it's more chocolatey than Ovaltine. I also dig their wafer bars and chocolate bars. Have you tried them?

I am not drinking those anymore. I take coffee. But during my childhood, I do take them and usually it is Milo that I take more often. I think the taste of Milo is better if my taste buds is to be the judge.

Not keen on Milo, I prefer Ovaltine although I haven't had it for years. I really like hot chocolate as in cocoa. As a kid I used to drink hot milk with a dash of coffee believe it or not. My parents did not have much money and sometimes I would have to have a big mug of hot milk and coffee with biscuits for dinner because that is all my mother had; she felt bad about it but I loved it!

I likes to drink Milo too, since from my childhood. My family used to buy Milo since from many years ago. Before Ovaltine also tastes nice. But, now the tastes had changed, so we still prefer to have Milo drink than Ovaltine. Even now, Milo have introduce many kinds of delicious drink. But, i still prefer the original taste added with sweet condensed milk..Mmm, tastes very delicious...

I like milo more than ovaltine. Ovaltine are like small rocks making it harder or slower to dissolve which milo easily dissolves even without stirring. And also tastes better over ovaltine.

I agree you can just shake milo and it dissolves in hot water right away

I prefer milo over ovaltine. Milo tastes so good while ovaltine makes me feel a little bit dizzy when I drink perhaps because of some ingredients present in ovaltine.

Its hard to know which one better but I have tasted both more common ovaltine. Right now I drink milo but that doesnt mean Im saying that it is better. Both are great in my experience and I sense the rise of my energy.
