Nesquik started as a drink mix, but readers have some brilliant alternative serving suggestions.
Last week, I was rudely awakened to the fact that apparently not everyone spent their childhood eating dry Nesquik powder straight from the tub with a spoon. Fine, I get it. My surreptitious trips to the pantry were not as universal as I thought. I’ve made peace with that. Luckily, though, even Takeout readers who didn’t partake in this crunchy illicit snack grew up enjoying Nesquik powder, and many didn’t just put it to its intended use as a drink mix. What follows is a list of the many unique alternative uses for Nesquik suggested by our resourceful readers. Our future snacking sessions thank you.

Eat Nesquik + peanut butter
“I would take a spoonful of peanut butter and then sprinkle a bunch of Nestle powder over it,” wrote one commenter, a true visionary. “I had to be very careful, as my mother was a psychic when it came to knowing when I had been hitting the sauce.” Advertisement
A more relatable sentence has never been written. Shout out to all the kids out there who learned extreme stealth tactics in order to swipe sweets, replacing the lid on a glass jar of pilfered M&M’s like they were Indiana Jones stealing the Golden Idol in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
“ I did not [eat dry Quik powder] because it was gritty and unpleasant,” one reader responded bluntly to my query. “ I did have a stepfather who liked to sprinkle strawberry quik on buttered toast and eat that, but that is also disgusting.”Advertisement
Strawberry Quik is a topic we haven’t yet waded into, because I avoided the product as a child and I avoid it now. I’ve never had a sip of strawberry milk; somehow the leap from chocolate to fruit—the color shift from earthy brown to Pepto-Bismol pink—felt too artificial, even back then. But if anyone would like to make an argument for Strawberry Nesquik, I’m all ears.
In any case, chocolate Nesquik on toast sounds pretty awesome, l ike a slightly muted version of cinnamon-sugar toast. All the better, I imagine, if you use it to top homemade white bread.Advertisement
