General Mills Chex Apple Cinnamon Cereal, 13.75-Ounce

General Mills Chex Apple Cinnamon Cereal, 13.75-OunceChex is a great-tasting line of cereal that's great for little sugar (well hey, some cereals have 42 grams of sugar) and it's gluten free, so people with wheat allergies can have it without problem.

And Apple Cinnamon Chex is the best tasting one, a yummy weekend cereal with a good amount of real tasting Apple and Cinnamon. Every bite is a delight (hey, I made a rhyme!) and the milk tastes like tasty apple-cinnamon powder afterwards (and come on, we all have to admit to loving the taste of the milk after a decent soak with cereal powder).

Enjoy it!

It is a bit sugar-y, but my family is hooked on this stuff! I don't find it gets mushy faster than any other chex cereals I've had. The apple flavor is subtle, with the cinnamon being a bit more prominent, which I like.

Chex get very soggy very quickly. Unless you slurp this stuff down then you're going to have a bowl of mush before you're through. Worse yet, the texture of the `apple cinnamon' coating is very gritty and so you'll have a bowl of sandy mush. Flavor-wise, the cereal is decent. It doesn't have a strong apple flavor or even a strong cinnamon flavor. In fact, once the cereal sits a few and the coating starts to dissipate into the milk you're kind of left with plain old Chex mix in a bowl of sugary milk. I really expecting something great here, and I was excited to dig in, but after my first bowl I found myself forcing myself to finish the box since no one else in the house would touch it.

Blech. I had high hopes for this cereal but it fell flat due to far too high sugar content and exceeding sweetness. The pieces seem to be double-coated in the flavor powder; they are oddly "fuzzy" and turn your milk into a cesspool of sugar slop. The pieces get mushy right away, too, making breakfast even more unappetizing. This would be much better if they threw in an even number of unflavored pieces to balance out the sweetness and overall flavor. Also, it may be gluten-free but it gave me a bit of a tummy ache. Won't be buying it again.

Weetabix Cereal 24 Pk

Weetabix Cereal 24 PkMy Son loves this stuff. I serve it with whole milk and organic demera sugar. Made from wheat and barley I am confident that it is a healthy breakfast lunch and dinner. He can feed himself if he is hungry. Hide the sugar and only leave out enough. He ate the better part of a box in one sitting and for a short period it was the base of his food pyramid. Until the cupboard was bare.

This stuff is hard to find. When we saw some in the local supermarket we bought it all but they would not restock it. Amazon cancelled my order due to availability too. I will not pay ten bucks for one box of cereal so it is too good for me.

Good news it is made in the United States too and distributed through Barbara's the Puffin Cereal people. I ordered a case but you may be able to find Weetabix in the organic food isle next to the Puffins.

Weetabix Whole Grain Cereal

excellent source of energy.It is so tasty and will help you crave for it when you are really hungry . It can be used for breakfast or has a healthy snack with fat free milk. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves healthy cereal and this is one of a kind

A healthy cereal that is made in Britain. It's on the same line a shredded wheat, but a finer cereal, that is great with honey or fresh fruit.

I bought this to remind me of my childhood growing up eating weetabix for breakfast and yes, it tastes the very same!

But still very good and the nutrition data are the same.

Decent price in the USA, too

My kid likes this; and beats the heck out of Frosted Flakes for nutrition.

Kashi TLC Chewy Granola Bars, Trail Mix, 6 ct

Kashi TLC Chewy Granola Bars, Trail Mix, 6 ctMy two favorite granola bars are Kashi chewy bars, all with the typical 7-grain mix: first Trail Mix, then Cherry Dark Chocolate; my spouse always opts for Dark Mocha Almond. To me, the Trail Mix bars are ideal: not too sweet, plenty of almonds, and good oats-and-granola crunch. The slightly sticky matrix is only enough to hold the bar together, without overwhelming the ingredients. The 140 calories (a bit less, for the other two bars) are nicely balanced: 6 g protein, 4 g fiber, 6 g sugars, and 5 g fat. No high-fructose corn syrup, no saturated fat, no cholesterol; low sodium (95 mg). Food, instead of candy (like the usual breakfast granola bar, with only 1 or 2 g protein) or medicine (the high-protein or high-fiber sports bars). I love the taste of Kashi Trail Mix, enough that I have to ration myself to two a day. Maybe the 1-star reviewer got a bad batch? Or maybe it's just that tastes differ.

I order these for an office of 100. They are one of the standard ones I always stock, because they are the CEO's choice. I had an employee, who twice told me these were "bad news" and tasted awful (obviously wanted me to stop ordering). I shrugged it off because we do run out of them so it's obvious some people like them. I ate one after she was so adamant concerning how bad they taste, and I have no complaints. I don't really understand how someone can hate them, but based on this employee, and the one star review on here, I guess opinions vary greatly on the issue.

I would have thought that perhaps this employee doesn't like Kashi bars in general, they aren't as high in sugar and other things that make things taste good but are bad for you. But I know she would eat the other Kashi choices. Weird!

Excuse me i have to throw up from eating these Brb... Ok so if you like eating horse vomit get these trail mix bars and have a nice day.

Earth's Best Organic Yummy Tummy Instant Oatmeal, 10 Count (Pack of 6)

Earth's Best Organic Yummy Tummy Instant Oatmeal, Apple Cinnamon, 10-CountThis is my daughter's absolute favorite breakfast food! She is 3 years old, but has been enjoying it since about a year & half. She also likes the Maple & Brown Sugar variety, but definitely prefers this one. I use organic milk to prepare it, just enough to soak the oats, put it in the microwave for about 45 seconds then top it with applesauce as the mix in (to cool it off quicker). She loves it!

My 1-year old daughter and I both LOVE this oatmeal. It has just the right amount of sweetness, and it's not gloppy and soggy like some instant oatmeal. This is the only instant oatmeal we eat now. Of course, my daughter loves that Elmo is on the package...

We go through 2-3 boxes of this oatmeal per week. It tastes great and the fact that it is organic is a plus for us. I find it cheaper on amazon than in my local grocer.

My child is allergic to nuts, and I used to use this cereal on a daily basis. She loved it and never had any problems. My latest shipment (4/13) had new packaging, which alerted me to review the ingredients. Apparently now the product is manufactured in a facility that processes nuts, and could be less safe for nut allergy sufferers.

Search for new breakfast cereal now begins.

This is by far the best flavored instant oatmeal I have found. Other brands are either too sweet, or if they advertise no added sugar actually taste salty. This one is just yummy! My 3-year-old and I have both been eating it for the last couple of years and we both love it.

Quick Rolled Oats - Bulk 50 Pound Bag

Quick Rolled Oats - Bulk 50 Pound BagThe product is of high quality, and has a rich full flavor.

Delivery was unexpectedly fast.

The only negative I would like to see addressed is that the product is packed in a heavy paper sack. While this may be commonplace, a significant improvement would be to have an inner liner of a heavy weight, food grade, plastic bag that can be sealed after each time you open the bag. Could be either a zip-lock bag or a twist tie closure... doesn't make any difference... just need a practical way to preserve the freshness of the product and keep the bugs out of it.

This is a health and spoilage issue... 50#'s of oatmeal is a lot of product and needs to either be repackaged by the consumer in small food grade bags or containers (very expensive and hard to find}. I am a single senior who likes to buy staple goods in bulk to save money and provide food security. Long term storage is a big issue with people like me.

Thom (Missouri)

Product is fresh, good and I'm not getting complaints anymore.

That's worth the large quantity and shipping charges.

Hey, its oatmeal. My favorite!

I'm happy with the quality of the product and the price. Like the other reviewer, I would prefer if there was a plastic liner to preserve freshness. However, I will continue to buy this product regardless as it is quality oatmeal at a good price.

Edit: I'm on my 4th bag, quality continues to be high.

This is an amazing deal for how much oatmeal you get. Do not underestimate how much 50 pounds of quick oats is going to look like. It's a giant bag... When you open that box, you will probably laugh at yourself for being so excessive... However, if you're like me and you have a family that eats oatmeal every morning, you'll probably get through it in a few months. I recommend buying some food storage buckets to keep it fresh and prevent the bugs from getting in. The product quality itself is really good, but not "wow" good. There is a slightly odd aftertaste, but I barely notice it and I have a strong sense of taste and smell. Their customer service is awesome! My first bag was ripped and spilled upon delivery, and they took good care of me to replace it.

Good quality oats. Package came on time. Oats worked well in recipes. I will admit, as a single person I bought these oats with my boyfriend for breakfast foodit lasted us for the year.

Otherwise it's an excellent buy.

Earth's Best Junior Baby Food Organic My First Soup, 6 Ounce Jars (Pack of 12)

Earth's Best Junior Baby Food Organic My First Soup, Country Vegetable Chicken, 6 Ounce JarsMy son is a picky eater, and especially hates eating textured/dry food. Since I knew he liked butternut squash, I decided to try this flavor out and sure enough he loved it!

The soup has meat and grains, so he's getting all of the food groups, and it's easy enough for him to swallow.

If you have a picky eater like I do, I definitely recommend this flavor for your baby!

The product description does not list the ingredients so here they are:

Ingredients: Organic Vegetables (Organic Peas, Organic Carrots), Water, Organic Ground Chicken, Organic Whole Oat Flour, Organic Split Pea Powder.

This is my kids favorite jarred baby food. I make most of the food at home and in a pinch I revert to Butternut Squash bisque, most other jarred baby food are unpalatable. This is creamy and has chicken and veggies. So it's a win

I usually used to buy this from Babies r us, but with subscribe and save plus the shipping home factor has made amazon.com a fav shopping site.

Tip to make this more calorific: once my baby got to 11 mos and wanted more chunkier food, I used to mash up an egg yolk ( boiled) with a splash of whole milk and make it into a paste, pour in warm Bisque and thicken with oatmeal or brown rice cereal . (disclaimer: my kids have never been allergic to milk or eggs and I started them on it pretty early, you might wanna add formula)

My son loves this "soup". The consistency of the soup is basically the same as thick, smooth baby food (it just doesn't have any chunky bits of food in it as most Stage 3 baby foods do, which qualifies it as a "soup" apparently). When my son was 8 months old, he had a hard time adjusting to chunky foods (gagging and choking, etc.), but I needed to buy him some protein-rich baby foods, as we were weaning.

I was also buying the Sweet Potato and Chicken meal (stage 2), but I really wanted the larger serving that this jar offered. Upon comparing the nutritional content on the two jars, I discovered that this soup has as much protein per serving as the actual meal labeled as Sweet Potato and Chicken perfect!

I was slightly concerned that the "cinnamon" might cause him gas issues or digestive discomfort (it does me sometimes and he is a spitter-upper), but he has no problems whatsoever. And he LOVES the taste. He will eat a whole jar in no time flat (at room temperature, me spooning it in).

My son is now almost 14 months old. He is in the 95% for height and 55% for weight. He has never really adjusted to chunky baby food, which I can't explain, as he now eats finger foods, bananas, berries, pb&j, mac and cheese, chicken, etc. just fine self-feeding. But I still use these Earth's Best Soups pretty much daily to supplement his dinner, to make sure he keeps his weight up to how fast he is growing. He eats on his own for awhile and then I feed him a jar of soup. He still loves them and it is great having an easy source of protein on hand.

My daughter likes this but prefers the chunkier texture of the EB chicken & stars. This was good when she didn't have teeth and wasn't a good chewer like she is now.

Instant Oatmeal Variety Pack 6 Pkts

Instant Oatmeal Variety Pack 6 PktsMy sister introduced me to this product and now I get her to send it to me in the UK!! That's how good it is!

My husband and I are both gluten free. It can sometimes be a challenge to find delicious-tasting gluten-free products. This oatmeal variety pack tastes good and is gluten free, but also extremely convenient, which is important to my husband as he travels a lot. He keeps them in his suit case, and heats up water in his hotel room. This oatmeal is especially good when cooked with almond milk instead of water. I have not been able to find it in any of my local stores, so was very pleased to find that I could purchase it through Amazon.com.

Nature's Path Organic Corn Flakes Cereal Fruit Juice Sweetened, 26.4-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6)

Nature's Path Organic Corn Flakes Cereal  Fruit Juice Sweetened, 26.4-Ounce BagsI've been buying Nature's Path gluten free foods for a number of years, and have been fully satisfied. I've had access to somewhat lower prices than what traditional grocery stores put on their products, but am delighted that Amazon's price is virtually identical to the prices offered by the discount organic foods market we've purchased these from in the past. I doubt you'll find Nature's Path products any lower anywhere else, particularly when you consider no sales tax and free shipping if the order is large enough. Also, I contacted Nature's Path once with a question about one of their products (the Mesa Sunrise flakes). Customer service is excellent and very friendly (much nicer than we typically get "down here" in the States they're a Canadian company up in B.C.). If this sounds like a commercial, it's not intended to be I just have been entirely satisfied with Nature's Path foods for years and have no complaints at all. When a company does a good job, they deserve referrals everybody wins.

Anyone following a gluten-free diet knows how expensive it can be to buy the gluten-free version of anything and when trying a product for the first time you hope it actually tastes good. This is one gluten-free product I am completely delighted with both in taste and price. These corn flakes are crunchy and delicious (I like them better than the glutenated alternatives), and work well for other recipes. Candies, cereal crumb pie crusts, fried chicken, etc.

Our whole family loves this wholesome cereal. Although definitely not as sweet as a lot of corn flake cereals found on the counter, it does have a delightful taste that is crisp and you'll know that you won't gain a lot of weight. We eat it with organic milk, organic blueberries & bananas, and it really helps us start the day with the energy we need. The large pack helps the cereal last longer than the smaller packs, which rarely last beyond a couple of days. We love this cereal, and we think it's really a bargain! We also love the free shipping, which we found to be very prompt more often than not. Thanks, Amazon!

My daughter who has Celiac had a severe reaction after eating this and the Mesa Sunrise Cereal also by Nature's Path for several days. This was the only new food in her diet so I checked the website of Nature's Path for more information. it turns out they make their GF cereals on the same equipment as the gluten ones. They promise they wash the equipment and throw away the first part of the cereal made yet there was still enough there for my daughter to react. I would never have bought this cereal if I knew that it was made in the same room much less the same equipment. Some companies are ethical and will admit when their food is processed in the same area or on the same equipment so people like my daughter have a choice of whether to risk their health or not.

These corn flakes are truly the best I've ever eaten. They are crispy, stay that way for quite some time when served in milk, and are deeply satisfying insofar as flavor is concerned. To boot, and very important to me, they are gluten free. With some products, looking at the price-tag is a waste of time, I'd buy these anywhere, at any price.
