Red River Original All Natural Hot Cereal, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

We first ate this cereal during a trip to Canada several years ago, add a little brown sugar and milk & WOW! This hot cereal tastes better than what we normally get here in the states. I have ordered it several times. Yes, you get 12 boxes, but you can either give some to friends (and get them hooked) or you can freeze the boxes until you need them. If you live in Minnesota you can find this in the grocery store; wish it were sold all over the country.

Kellogg's Rasin Bran is very tasty but who in thier right mind would pay practically $5.00 a box for it? This is commonly on sale for $2.50 a box in the grocery stores.

Post grape-nuts Flakes Cereal, 14-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4) Review

Post grape-nuts Flakes Cereal, 14-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Our family LOVES this cereal. I used to buy it regularly at the local Safeway. Unfortunately, as with the experience of many others, the local grocery store no longer carries it.
When buying it at Safeway, I could find it quite often "on sale" for $2 per box - and that box was larger than the paltry 14-ouncers Amazon is peddling here (can't recall, but I believe it was an 18 oz size)
A LITTLE ARITHMETIC:
1. If I was buying 18 oz for $2, the price was 11 cents an ounce (even if the boxes were 14 oz, the price still would have been 14.3 cents per oz).
2. Amazon is selling us 6 14 oz boxes (84 oz) for $25.14 (and telling us it is "discounted" from $28.89!). This amounts to 30 cents an ounce. You can get it down to 25.4 cents an ounce IF you agree to regular interval deliveries - something I'd be GLAD to do for the RIGHT PRICE!
NOTE: At 30 cents an ounce, we are paying $4.80 per pound - I can buy several punds of chicken, hamburger, or even a pretty good steak for that per-pound price.
CONCLUSION: this great product seems to have disappeared from the local store shelves and, in order to get it, we now have to pay 2 to 3 times as much making grape nut flakes more costly than many meats. I suspect that this is very profitable and I'd rather be a seller than a buyer!!
If anyone know of better pricing options, please post them!
Also, POST and AMAZON, if you are listening, PLEASE see if you couldn't provide this absolutely great product at a little better price. Many thanks for reading.

what a disappointment

Inspired by the taste of home-baked blueberry almond muffins, Blueberry Morning cereal provides nine essential vitamins and minerals. It's also full of wild, sweet blueberries, which give this cereal its uniquely delicious flavor. High in folic acid, Blueberry Morning is a perfect part of a well-balanced breakfast or a quick and healthy snack during the day.

Arrowhead Mills Organic Hot Cereal, Oat Bran, Hot Cereal, 40-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

Arrowhead Mills Organic Hot Cereal, Oat Bran, Hot Cereal, 40-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The best oat bran I've found so far. Compared to other brands, it's very smooth, not chaffy, and has a distinctly nutty flavor.
My favorite quick breakfast recipe:
1/2 cup oat bran
1 cup low fat vanilla soy milk
1 tbsp raw agave nectar
Stir and microwave for 2 1/2 minutes (microwave times vary based on power, make sure you watch carefully the first few times to determine the optimal microwaving time for your oven or you'll be sorry -- spills are not fun to clean up)
The 6 x 40oz packages represent approximately 6 months worth of daily breakfasts, an fraction of what the single serving packages cost -- and they're nowhere near as healthy or tasty. Give it a try!

This is a fantastic cereal and at a great price. It sounds like it's not but, when you get it, it's like buying 4 boxes - regular size. The shipping was fast, well packed so the cereal didn't get crushed. Definitely HIGHLY recommend.

Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes, Organic and Gluten Free, 12-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes, Organic and Gluten Free, 12-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes cook up into a hearty hot cereal. They taste great on their own, sweetened or with butter. It cooks very fast, which is a definite plus. Just don't expect a texture like you'd get with whole quinoa. It's more a mush like well cooked cornmeal, but it's higher in protein.
For those who can't eat gluten or are allergic to wheat as I am, this makes a great substitute for Cream of Wheat. Actually I prefer the taste of the quinoa flakes.
BTW, I was happy to find it here at this price since the few times I was able to buy it at the store it was $5.99 per box.

Food For Life Ezekiel 4:9 Organic Sprouted Grain Cereal, Cinnamon Raisin, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

I love Ezekiel products. No flour=no fat gain. I use Ezekiel for bodybuilding because they make the most nutritional grains that provide sustained energy with a minimal insulin response, and of course they are a reputable ALL NATURAL company. Flour containing products are not as healthy and spike insulin (causing fat gain) compared to than sprouted grains, so to me flour has no place in everday diet (occasional desserts are a different story). I don't even have anything to comare Ezekiel to because nothing else I know of is flourless in terms of bread or cereal. Great products! Of course raisin is the best tasting of the cereals in my opinion but the others are fine too. They are a bit pricy, but you really do get what you pay for.
You know why many big name cereals (or any product for that matter) costs less?
1. lower quality ingredients
2. they add nutritionally USELESS things like trans fat (if you see the word 'hydrogenated' in the ingredients, there are trans fats present. Yes, even if the label says 0g trans fat because that actually means

Country Choice Organic Multi Grain Hot Cereal, 18-Ounce Canisters (Pack of 6) Review

Country Choice Organic Multi Grain Hot Cereal, 18-Ounce Canisters (Pack of 6)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Country Choice brand is domestically produced and certified organic by Oregon Tilth.
I bought the Multigrain Hot Cereal the first time by accident instead of the steel cut oats but decided to try it rather than return it and was pleasantly surprised.
It contains rolled whole grain rye, barley, oats, and wheat in that order. It is a great hot breakfast on a chilly morning and a nice change from oatmeal. I like it slightly undercooked and topped with a sliced banana and raisins with a splash of milk.
As far as nutrition, a half cup has 5g of fiber!
Even if you don't like oatmeal, you might want to give this a try.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use oat bran both as a hot cereal and in baking. Bob's Red Mill Organic Oat Bran Cereal is delicious as a hot cereal (especially when cooked in milk rather than water) and ordering it online from Amazon is cheaper than buying Quaker Oat Bran in my local supermarket (if I buy it with enough other stuff in my order to qualify for Super Saver Shipping). However, if you are using it for baking you should be aware that it is not as finely ground as Quaker's. Sometimes this has an effect on the texture of your baked goods and sometimes it doesn't. It depends on the recipe. I definitely prefer it to Quaker's as a hot cereal because it has more texture.

All-Bran Bran Buds, 17.7-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4) Review

All-Bran Bran Buds, 17.7-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought this product because I wanted to eat a healthy cereal and at the same time add more fiber to my diet. I chose All Bran because it did not contain aspartame. I got home and started reading the ingredients & realized the second ingredient is sugar and also contains high fructose corn syrup. It has 8 grams of sugar per serving, but they list a serving as only 1/3 cup. Who do they think they are kidding? An average American eats more than that for breakfast. Do they think consumers are stupid?
A box of Kashi 7 Whole Grain Flakes with Black Currants & Walnuts cereal lists a serving as 1 cup and contains only 10 grams of sugar for that whole cup. Uncle Sam cereal with Real Mixed Berries contains NO added sweetner of any kind and 1 cup of it contains only 2 grams of naturally occuring sugar coming mostly from the berries. Wow! You mean a cereal manufacturer is brave enough to make a cereal without adding sugar? Yes and it is good. In comparison eating 1 cup of All Bran Buds would be consuming 24 grams of sugar. No thanks!
If anyone at Kellogg's is reading this please know that people who are buying these types of cereals are not buying them primarily for the taste but for the health benefits. We are not the "Kindergarten Crowd" who needs sugar added to everything to get us to eat it. If I want to consume extra sugar I'll eat a cookie once in a while as a treat. If I am going to eat a cereal everyday to incorporate fiber into my diet it is not going to be one that has unneeded amounts of sugar.
Why can't the big name cereal manufacturers use stevia as an alternative sweetner? It has been used for years in Europe with no known side effects. The consumers buying these types of cereals who are trying to watch their sugar consumption and increase their fiber would gladly welcome less or preferably no sugar or a healthy sweetner such as stevia.

It really stinks that eating the healthiest foods costs the most but in my opinion, it's worth it. I love these cereals. The first case I bought from amazon was the original and I wound up eating it for breakfast, snacks, lunch, whenever, without milk or adding anything... I love the crunch and the taste. I actually ate the whole case in about 2 weeks and very little else... and it is amazing that I didn't gain weight, my bms were much better, and I had great energy and felt well- my body was craving it. Try that on Coco Puffs, Cornflakes, and even any of the other "healthy" cereals in the healthfood stores!
I actually make my own sprouted grain breads and crackers which I could easily break up to make this type of cereal- there is nothing in the world like it, but it takes 2 days of sprouting and a couple of hours to complete the food processing and spreading on the baking sheet process, and then 3-4 hours of low-heat baking. So when I don't have time to do this, a very close second are the Ezekiel products (their bread, english muffins, cereals, and pastas).
Anyone who makes health their top priority will eat very little of non-sprouted grain products (flour products). For those interested, Amazon sells a book called the Essene Gospel of Peace which contains writings found in the Vatican archives- in this little book, Jesus teaches his followers how to make bread, and it has nothing to do with taking the dry grain and grinding it up into flour and using yeast- he teaches them to soak the grain, let the sun bring it to life, grind it up alive, and then let the sun bake it. That makes the only truly living, healthful breads and cereals.
Yes, these products will feel and taste different than most are used to, but the more one eats this type of real food, the more the body starts remembering and then one begins to really enjoy the taste and textures because they equate to life and health. :)

I don't know how quaker did it, but you really taste the 'muffin' in this oatmeal! It is so yummy. The only thing I wish was different was that it had more fiber. It has 4g, which isn't bad, but if they could make this flavor in their high fiber version I would never eat anything else for breakfast!

I love cereal. I'm like Seinfeld where he has all those boxes of cereal in the kitchen except I have more. At any given time I'll have 10-20 boxes of cereal in the house - different kinds. They keep a long time unopened so I stock up when I see a good deal. This cereal is one of my favorites. The taste is really good. If you like blueberry taste this is for you. I also love that it's a lot healthier than many other cereals with it's high fiber content.

Fill Up on Fiber The studies are clear--fiber can help promote weight loss and healthier eating patterns, while increasing overall health:
Fiber takes longer to chew and slows down the rate at which we eat--giving our bodies a chance to let us know when we are full.
With fewer calories and greater bulk, high-fiber foods help us feel fuller for longer.
Fiber helps keep the digestive tract clean and healthy decreasing risk of intestinal disease.
Fiber-rich diets can help lower 'bad' cholesterol, lower blood pressure, and help control blood sugar levels.

Whether you start your day with a bowl full of Kellogg's Frosted Mini-Wheats Blueberry Muffin Cereal, munch on it as a snack, or add it into a delicious muffin recipe--you can enjoy both the great taste and the certainty that you are doing the right thing for you, and your family.
