As most of my readers know I've been trying to eat healthier and so far in the last 2 years I've lost a total of 70 lbs.
I've been trying different products that are high in protein because eating protein with your meal is supposed to help you feel fuller, longer.
When I first tasted this cereal, I didn't like the weird crunch it had. It's a crunch as if it's been in an open container for a month and is now old and stale. If you let it sit in the milk for a little while and get a little less crunchy, you won't have the weird crunch this has. The taste isn't horrible, I do taste chocolate. But if you're looking for a sweet cereal, this isn't it.
The price for a small 9oz bag was $6.99
A serving size is 1/2 cup. There are 150 calories for 1/2 cup.
I ate this for a couple of days for breakfast. Did it keep me fuller than my bowl of oatmeal that I usually have or the 2 boiled eggs I sometimes have? No, it lasted about the same as eating either of those 2 things for breakfast.
Would I buy this again? No. Straight talk, I didn't like this cereal.
I tried it as a snack by itself, and I would rather have something else.
I added a handfull of the cereal to my zero sugar Banana Cream Pudding and let it sit to get a little soggy. Again, I didn't like the taste of the cereal. I did try it several times and came to the same conclusion, this just isn't for me.
If I'm going to eat cereal because I'm craving cereal or something sweet, I'd rather eat a traditional sweet cereal instead of this.
Most cereals are highly processed and not good for you. Stick with the oatmeal.
ReplyDeleteToo bad this cereal didn't taste good, that texture and taste both don't sound good.
ReplyDeleteI do like some of the protein rich products and had to look into it a bit when my gut issues started. I usually stick to protein bars with peanuts or soy crunchies as those taste the best to me and are easy to eat. I can also recommend quinoa or oats as they have a lot of protein too and you could combine them with your normal cereal possibly.
Something that expensive should have at least been more flavorful and like you said have a decent crunch to it.
ReplyDeleteThanx for this review.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
