AnnaBanana says "The great taste of a pomegranate that even I know how to eat! " about Trader Joe's Pomegranate & Blueberry Flakes & Clusters Cereal

AnnaBanana — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 19:06:19 GMT

I know it sounds silly but I've never been quite sure what to do with a fresh pomegranate. When you open this attractive autumn fruit up, there is all this delightful red juicy stuff which I understand that I am supposed to eat but I never quite know what to do with all those seeds -- do I suck them clean and spit the seeds out? WHA? Perhaps because of this confusion, it only follows that I adore anything which delivers that great pomegranate flavor to me the easy way -- sauces, beverages, cocktails, etc. Someone at Trader Joe's must be sympathetic to my quandary because they have come up with Trader Joe's Pomegranate & Blueberry Flakes & Clusters Cereal.

Just opening the box is a great fruit-lover's experience as a delightful aroma wafts up comprised of not only whole wheat flour and rolled oats but also freeze-dried blueberries, pomegranate, cherry powder and elderberry extract. The freeze-dried fruits are delightful, being not too hard but wonderfully chewy and flavorful. ...

AnnaBanana says "Everything old is new again!" about Starbucks Perfect Oatmeal

AnnaBanana — Sat, 11 Oct 2008 02:48:58 GMT

One of the advantages of belonging to the Starbucks Card Rewards program is that you sometimes receive nice little "perks" from them such as a coupon good for a free serving of their latest "new" breakfast selection -- Starbucks Perfect Oatmeal. Yes, that's right -- the centuries old concept of hot oatmeal is an idea whose time has come again at Starbucks ... and it's just as delicious as oatmeal properly prepared has ever been and also available all day (not just during breakfast hours).

Since I got mine for free, I didn't notice the price but whatever it cost, I plan to get it again. They give you about seven ounces of hot oatmeal in a tightly covered cardboard cup with the instructions to wait three minutes before digging in and offer a selection of toppings -- Brown Sugar, Dried Fruit or Nut Medley -- which are provided in separate packets. Caught up in the excitement of the moment, I opted for all three toppings. Thank goodness I had to spend some calories walking...

redfireant says "Good for you and tastes good too" about Quaker High Fiber Instant Oatmeal: Maple & Brown Sugar

redfireant — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 23:01:09 GMT

I have eaten oatmeal almost all my life. I was never concerned and never really cared about the nutritional benefits or the amount of fiber in it until about 11 years ago when I was diagnosed with Diverticulitis. My doctor told me I needed to try and eat 35 grams of fiber a day, which is pretty hard to do. I've finally found an easy way to get most of my fiber intake by eating "Quaker High Fiber Instant Oatmeal" (Maple and Brown Sugar).

The Maple and Brown Sugar is delicious and I get 10 grams of fiber per pack...(I usually eat 2 packs, so that makes 20 grams...WOO HOO). I'm sure most people's hunger would be satisfied by only eating one because it is very filling, but I don't eat lunch, so it tides me over until supper. It is so creamy and tastes so good that I sometimes forget that it's good for me. There are 8 packs in a box and it cost me around $3.99. To me, it's a pretty good value because of the amount of fiber I'm getting.

It is convenient and easy to prepare. All you have...

stef42678 says "Sweet Cereal" about Annie's Honey Bunnies

stef42678 — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 09:08:29 GMT

I absolutely love eating cereal, not only for breakfast but for any meal or a snack in between. I like choosing healthier cereals, so I was really excited when Annie's came out with Annie's Honey Bunnies. This cereal has a sweet honey flavor that is made with high quality organic ingredients like honey and oats and tastes great. Every spoonful is crunchy goodness. You'll not only love the taste, but each bite is a cute bunny shape. I also like the Cinnabunnies variety. These cereals are low in fat and calories and have a lot of flavor. These cereals make the perfect breakfast and a great snack....

Jo says "I like my Bunnies better than my Honey. " about Annie's Honey Bunnies

Jo — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 14:36:19 GMT

To the Point

I love cereal. It's not uncommon for me to have cereal for dinner. When I saw Annie's Honey Bunnies on sale for $2.50 I grabbed three boxes. The price online is over $4.00. http://annies.elsstore.com/view/category/1510-breakfast-cereals/

A Closer View

Annie's Honey Bunnies Toasted Corn & Oat Cereal is said to be 75% organic and made with real honey and whole oats. There are "no icky additives or pesky preservatives. Annie's Honey Bunnies are targeting children with the cut back of the box with puppet instructions and games.

Annie's Honey Bunnies has 9 grams of whole grains; no fat or cholesterol and are vegetarian The ingredients are organic oat flour, organic corn flour, organic evaporated can juice, whole oat flour, oat fiber, honey, salt, baking soda, natural flavor.

With ½ cup of milk you'll get 160 calories and one gram of fat with low fat milk. Of course when I don't eat them right out of the box I add raisins and nuts to make it a real meal! I haven't had Cheerios...

gymmom2 says "Quaker Weight Control Oatmeal Is The Best" about Quaker Weight Control Oatmeal

gymmom2 — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 13:49:23 GMT

My kids would only eat cereal but i decided to try oatmeal and to my surprise they love it and it has protein to help keep you full longer. They really love the Banana Bread flavor. As for me it helps keep the weight down and keeps me full alot longer. I only wish they had more flavors like they do with other brands. Overall i would recommend this to other friends and family members as a great breakfast other than the sugary cereal alot of them eat everyday. ...

muffintoplover says "Muffin Tops are delicious, packed with flavor, healthy and cheap" about Malt-O-Meal Blueberry Muffin Tops Cereal

muffintoplover — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 19:44:59 GMT

I have never been this excited about a cereal to write a review. They are like Cinnamon Toast Crunch but blueberry flavored. Very Delicious, whole grain, 12 vitamins and minerals, and are only 1.99 for 11.0 oz. TIP!!! ALDI sells Blueberry Streusel Squares, which are the EXACT same thing, for 1.89, they even have the same muffin picture on the box. No matter which you choose, this cereal is AWESOME!

Rice Krispies is definitely on my top 5 list of things that calm me and go crunch lol. It's my choice cereal for pre work stress and after work calm...On my day off in the midst of a hectic week, you can probably find me curled up on my couch eating a bowl of this good stuff and watching my favorite show.

Rice Krispies Rock!

mysticstarfish says "Yummy in the Tummy and Great on the Go!" about Quaker Oatmeal To Go

mysticstarfish — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 17:25:07 GMT

Quaker has added to their line of products the Oatmeal To Go Squares. These squares are packed with the same heart healthy ingredients as a bowl of hot oatmeal.

They come in various flavors, oatmeal raisin, raspberry, cinnamon and banana bread. The squares can be microwaved right in the package; open one side of the package to vent, then microwave on high for 10 seconds.

The Oatmeal To Go Squares are great on the run or anytime for a really good snack.

SplishidySplash16 says "Quaker Oats are a satisfying way to start the day." about Quaker Old Fashioned Quaker Oats

SplishidySplash16 — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 14:55:52 GMT

When I was younger, I really liked the instant packets of Quacker oatmeal that have different flavors not to mention a ton of sugar. Now and then I still like to eat those, but not to long ago I decided to try eating the real stuff. At first I wasn't too sure, but I have to say I now really like it. It fills me up in the morning, and it's always nice to hold a bowl of something warm. I add a fruit to it, like a banana or apple. Plus I know that I'm eating something healthy. Great stuff!...

SplishidySplash16 says "Special K Chocolatey Delight makes me happy." about Kellogg's Special K Chocolately Delight Cereal

SplishidySplash16 — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 14:49:57 GMT

I love cereal. After seeing the comercials for Special K Chocolatey Delight, I decided maybe it would be a good way to have something "dessert like" that wasn't too bad for me. I have to say, it does do that trick and it's a whole lot better than eating a stack of cookies. I wouldn't call it a health food, and I wish Special K wouldn't use high fructose corn syrup, but it does it's job by satisfying my chocolate craving.
Mmmm chocolate.

LoveisJoy says "I Get Half of My Daily Fiber Intake in One Tasty Bowl of Cereal" about General Mills Fiber One Honey Clusters

LoveisJoy — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 14:43:20 GMT

I am both a morning person and a bona fide cereal person. I have the most mental clarity and energy in the morning, which is undoubtedly fueled by my daily bowl of cereal. The crunchier, the better. I prefer cereals that have a strong, textured flake and I'm passionate about any kind of raisins, cranberries, strawberries, almonds, and pecans, with an oat or nut cluster thrown in for good measure I am generally guided more by taste than nutritional information, but I'm trying to be more aware of how my favorite cereals stack up nutritionally. To that end, I was pleased to discover that General Mills' Fiber One Cereal with Honey Clusters offers a whopping 51% of the daily value of fiber in one crunchy bowl of flakes.

The lightly sweetened flakes are made of whole grain wheat, corn bran, and wheat bran. In addition, the whole grain oat clusters have a slight honey-sweetened taste that I enjoy. My only complaint is that there aren't nearly enough of the oat clusters to my liking. ...

SplishidySplash16 says "Berry Burst Cheerios is my favorite cereal." about General Mills Berry Burst Cheerios

SplishidySplash16 — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 14:15:33 GMT

I love putting fruit in my cereal. To me cereal seems incomplete without it. So having a cereal that aready has the fruit in it is awesome. Berry Burst Cheerios is my favorite cereal by far. It's healthy and tastes great. The fruit seems almost like fresh fruit once it has soaked in milk. By far the best type of cheerios. If only they added even more fruit it would be perfect....

moms2cents says "Quaker to go disappoints oatmeal fan" about Quaker Oatmeal To Go

moms2cents — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 17:35:03 GMT

My daughter loves quaker instant oatmeal. We're always looking for packaged snacks that we can send to camp or school with the girls. We were also going camping for 8 days. My husand picked up a large box thinking this would be a great choice for an easy breakfast or for a snack.

They come in several flavors including brown sugar cinamon, banana nut bread, and maple. Each square is individual wrapped. This makes it really easy to toss into a day pack or a lunch bag.

I don't remember the first flavor I tried (maple I think), but I didn't care for it at all and didn't want it. My daughter ate it, but it wasn't something she really liked. The whole family thought the banana nut bread flavor was the best and those were the only ones that got eaten.

The squares are very moist (too moist in my opinion). They're also too sweet and you can't taste the oatmeal. Usually when you think of oatmeal you think of something with high fiber and nutrious. I looked at the ingredients... the...

AnnaBanana says "A really nice cereal but CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH!" about Kashi Seven Whole Grain Puffs Cereal

AnnaBanana — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 15:21:30 GMT

Because it was on sale for only $2.50, I figured I would take a chance and also pick up a box of Kashi Seven Whole Grain Puffs at that Peapod sale. This cereal is a blend of the famous seven grains -- Buckwheat, Triticale, Rye, Hard Red Winter Wheat, Barley, Oats, Long Grain Brown Rice and Sesame Seeds. Because it is so low in fat and totally lacks sugars or sodium, this cereal tastes a bit bland at first but it is a "canvas" waiting to be painted on. A topping of fruit, a judicious dash of sugar and a splash of your favorite milk transforms "Puffs" into a delicous breakfast option. Alas, we are once again confronted with the daunting Kashi "satisfying crunch experience" which means prolonged, careful chewing ahead. Apparently, somebody at Kashi feels that the more we have to work to eat something, the less inclined we will be to eat too much of it. (They've got THAT right!)

STATS:

A one-cup single serving contains only 70 calories with five calories from fat. There are half...

shalineko says "Kashi TLC-totally love chewing these. " about Kashi TLC granola bars

shalineko — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 02:01:59 GMT

When I need a healthy snack or quick breakfast on the go, I always turn to Kashi TLC granola bars. My favorite variety is the peanut butter, though the honey almond flax and trail mix flavors are also very good. This have a very small amount of fat, but plenty of fiber and protein--not something you'll find in many of the overprocessed, sugarloaded granola bars that crowd most grocery aisles. I feel very satisfied after eating one--it's almost like eating a healthy candy bar that tastes great!

Another plus is the absence of high fructose corn syrup, and minimal sugar. I recommend this all natural snack for everyone. Kids and adults alike will love them!

AnnaBanana says "A little change in my routine" about Kashi Strawberry Fields

AnnaBanana — Fri, 22 Aug 2008 05:24:30 GMT

For more than ten years now, I have happily concentrated on either Corn or Rice Chex breakfast cereals but I must admit that sometimes my eyes have strayed to other things. Peapod putting Kashi cereals on sale for only $2.50 a box last week was all that was needed to complete the seduction. A child opening a holiday gift couldn't have been more excited than I was, as I pried my way into my first box of Kashi Organic Promise Strawberry Fields Cereal.

This is really a wonderful breakfast food delivering as it does whole grain satisfaction, just enough sugar but not too much, and freeze dried strawberry slices and whole raspberries which have miraculously retained chewy moisture and fresh fruit flavor. On the side panel of the box, Kashi promises a "satisfying crunch" experience and alas that turned out to be a problem. Apparently, Kashi's idea of satisfying crunch is like that of a beaver gnawing through a branch to build its dam. I mean, this cereal was CRUNCHY. When I was young...
