Smart Start Antioxidants Cereal, Original, 17.5-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)

Smart Start Antioxidants Cereal, Original, 17.5-Ounce BoxesIngredients: High Fructose Corn Syrup and Hydrogenated Oil.

Do a search and see what you think. I won't touch this stuff.

Now, one of the reviewers of this product complained about the sugar content of this cereal by only looking at the ingredients list, which is not how to determine the nutritional value of any product (especially when the reviewer cannot distinguish between nutritive and non-nutritive ingredients). This cereal has just as many simple sugars as Frosted Flakes, but the cereal does not claim to be low in sugar. What's important about this cereal is that it offers quite a bit of fiber and vitamins/minerals (not as much as some cereals, but since I have no deficiencies in this area, I didn't mind). Also, it only has 3 times the salt of a half cup of milk which is not LOADED. A can of healthy choice soup, now that is loaded with salt.

Now, I chose this cereal as a replacement for Frosted Flakes/Honey Nut Cheerios, which against my better judgment I continued to have every morning. I should point out that I don't drink coffee in the mornings and I don't drink soda (less than 1 a week on average). I also eat no sweets. Simple sugars (listed as just "Sugars" on the nutrition label) seem to be treated like carcinogens, while most people don't realize that aspartame (artificial sweetener in most diet sodas) really is one. If your diet is already low in sugar and you feel confident you can burn through those sugars pretty quick (since I don't drink caffeinated drinks, I need that jolt in the morning), then this is a good choice. If your diet already has quite a bit of sugar or your doctor tells you to cut down on simple sugars (or you also have a couple of cups of caffeinated coffee with sugar every morning), then go with another bran cereal without the oat clusters and syrups (which I really do not like that much). Also, if you are concerned about the total carbs, please note that a normal 2000 calories diet would include about 300g of carbohydrates (so yes, high protein diets contradict this).

Since taste is completely subjective, I won't put much emphasis on it. In my opinion, it tastes pretty good (but I don't consume many sweets during the day).

Just check out what is in this stuff. Why can't these corporate types get it right. Americans want healthy foods. Why is it so hard to get rid of high fructose corn syrup. Why? Well until they get it right I will go the companies that do.

We bought 4 boxes of this cereal couple months ago. Now we are eating the second one. My whole family don't seem to like this cereal.

I like this cereal. It is healthy and I don't grow tired of it. I have eaten it throughout my pregnancy. It is a nice and easy way to get a boost of what you need first thing of a morning.

You can save about a dollar or so a box if you catch it on amazon right. If you get free shipping and no tax, not a bad deal.

Post Cocoa Pebbles Cereal, 15-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)

Post Cocoa Pebbles Cereal, 15-Ounce BoxesThere are a small number of companies that make gluten-free food, and they don't bother to talk about it. These are, and as far as I can tell from reading the celiac boards, always have been gluten-free.

Other than that, well, they're Cocoa Pebbles.

Note; I use them for pie crusts on gluten free vegan pudding pies: coconut milk, agar agar, agave nectar and vanilla. If you want the recipe, please feel free to e-mail me--it's going in the cookbook.

Cocoa pebbles is a tasty breakfast cereal. It goes over very well with small children, especially the chocolate milk that is left in the bowl after the cereal pieces are eaten. I don't like that there are usually a few hard pieces left over in the bottom of the bowl. I wish all the pieces would be soft and edible.

If you are looking for a cereal that takes a long time to get soggy and turns your milk into chocolate milk, because the Cocoa Pebbles are so full of chocolate flavor, then I recommend Cocoa Pebbles to you. It is delicious.

I dont know what my thing is with cocoa pebbles...my mother, vitamin freak that she was, would never allow such food for breakfast, lunch, dinner or a snack. Ah, but now I shop for myself and these crunchy bits w skim milk (that you can slurp freely when done crunching) is a perfectly soothing not too fattening snack. There Mother, eat that!

My son doesn't eat cereals that don't have any chocolate flavours. This cereal he just loves. The cereal is coated with lot of chocolate & very crunchy.

Tea Assam Breakfast 15 Bags

Tea Assam Breakfast 15 BagsHigh quality assam tea. If you like English Breakfast you will love Assam tea. It's not as bitter, and is just as full of flavor.

I bought some of this stuff at the grocery store because I am interested in fair trade and the store stopped carrying Smith's No. 18 which is sold at an equivalent price. I think Lipton makes a better cup of tea. To be fair to the previous reviewer I'm not a fan of English Breakfast tea. I prefer a good cup of Irish Breakfast tea. It's unfortunate because I really do want to support fair trade.

Teasam Gastrodia Tea with Cornflackes 20g X 40 Stick

Teasam Gastrodia Tea with Cornflackes 20g X 40 StickBought this from the local grocery story because I've been trying to get back into the habit of eating breakfast and thought I would start with something similar to cereal milk. Taste is pretty good, does get kinda goopy if you dont stir it up. Taste is on the bland side but I'm fine with it. A bit surprised and unhappy to find that "palm oil" is listed as one of the ingredient. Not sure if I would buy another box after I finish this one...

Amazing Grass All Natural Drink Powder, Green Superfood, 15 Count Packets

Amazing Grass All Natural Drink Powder, Green Superfood, 15 Count PacketsAs someone who takes many types of green products (Spirulina, Chlorella, Blue Green Algae etc) everyday, I have a pretty good idea of what a good supplement should be like, and this stuff really works well. It gave me hours of intense energy to concentrate on whatever I needed to get done. I looked at the ingredients and it has all kinds of good stuff like: Wheat Grass, Barley Grass, Alfalfa, Spirulina, Spinach, Brocolli, Chlorella, Rose Hips, Green Tea, Flax Seed Powder and more. I would recommend this for anyone who needs more nutrition in their diet, and needs more dark greens. This is a great supplement for those who don't get enough veggies (but a better idea would be to take this supplement, and eat your veggies). Tastes especially good with fresh apple or pear juice.

I am a big fan of the Amazing Grass Green Super Food. I mix these packets into o.j. on airplanes to combat fatigue and hunger while avoided the horrible airline food.

Im not someone who usually writes reviews on products but I have made an exception. This product really works. I have recently quit drinking coffee (ok I have one occasionally) and I needed something that I could drink in the morning that is healthy and provides energy. From my first time using it and every time since (I am now almost through my first box) I felt a boost in energy and mental clarity that lasted me throughout my morning and into the afternoon. This stuff really works!

So glad I branched out and bought this powder. It tastes great. It is a lot easier to drink in smoothies and I use my vitamix and add it everyday. My skin looks great and I feel pretty good. So I love this powder. I will definitely buy some more. It's much better value on here than seeing it in the store where it was double.

I've found this actually tastes better than the stuff I juice (apple, kale, spinach, cucumber, celery, carrot, bok choy). I mix it with 8 ounces of apple juice and I'm good to go. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because it doesn't completely dissolve and sometimes it has a bit of a granular consistency. But it's tolerable. If I drink it first thing in the morning, it helps curb my hunger and junk food cravings.
