Wheatena Toasted Wheat Cereal, 20-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)

Wheatena Toasted Wheat Cereal, 20-Ounce BoxesI have been eating Wheatena for over 60 years. It's the most hearty, tasty, filling, cereal I have ever found. Now, because of cholesterol concerns, I mix the dry cereal with oat bran for its soluble fiber, and quinoa for its complete protein (helps cut down on animal protein). I eat the cooked combination with soy milk. I can't find Wheatena in stores all the time so I'm thankful that I can get it via Amazon.com.

Its impossible to find Wheatena on store shelves on the west coast. So its wonderful to have a place to purchase it. Growing up, this is one of the hot cereals mom served and I sure missed it. Tastes great, good for you, and warms the body and soul on the cold, wet northwestern mornings.

Tastes just like I remember it and the fun thing is that by adding all sorts of different fruits the taste changes and never gets old.

YUM.

I like to sprinkle some Wheatena in with my Quaker 1 Minute Oatmeal and cook a hot cereal that is much better than either one by itself...It reminds me of a hot cereal that is no longer available that was called "Roman Meal"...The flavor and texture is fabulous...Give it a Try Yourself!

My wife had mentioned that with winter coming on she wishes she had some Wheatena . Every time I was in a grocery store I went to the cereal isle looking for her Wheatena ,,,but no luck. On a hunch one day I searched Wheatena on Amazon. I was so happy to get it for her...She was so happy the day it was delivered and has already enjoyed a few bowls full. She says it tastes better if you make it with milk...My one complaint is that it was VERY expensive breakfast cereal when you purchase it with the shipping costs plus the cereal . It might be cheaper for us to fly back East where it came from and pick some up in person.

Wheatena Cereal is hard to find in the Maryland Virginia area. It has been one of my personal favorites for a long time, and I am glad that Amazon handles it. The Wheatena arrived in about 4 days and Super Saver Shipping was really fast on it. If you like Wheatena I would recommend you buy it from Amazon.

New Orleans Gourmet Foods Southern Style Grits, 6-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 4)

New Orleans Gourmet Foods Southern Style Grits, 6-Ounce BoxesI have tried different brands of grits and find this one to be the very best. Even though they are quick cooking grits, you can cook them as long as you need to. Their flavor is also better. I would buy again. My favorite recipe is: Creamy Grits-2tbs salted butter or 2tbs unsalted butter +1/4 tsp salt. 2 cups water,1/2 c stone ground grits. 1-2 c milk, half n half or stock.Drop the butter into water,bring to boil.Stir in grits, return to boil & reduce heat. cook 10 min. or until thick,stirring to prevent sticking.Add about 1/2 cup milk or cream, simmer 10 min. As the liquid evaporates add more milk until its the consistency you want. Can cook up to an hour. Wonderful. recipe from hoppin' John's low country cooking.

These grits cook quick.

Boil water, throw in grits takes about 5-7 minutes. Perfect for making breakfast quickly.

4 bags is probably around 8 cups of dry grits. 1 cup of dried grits is a lot of grits, enough to feed 6 people easily.

The grits are amazing! AMAZING. I was dumb founded how well they tasted. Just plain they are delicious.

If you love grits, you must try this brand. And if you think you don't like grits....People who thought they did not like grits and try these and love them! Fabulous product and much better than what you can buy at the local grocer. Best Grits Ever!!!!

I did read the disclaimer, but was still a bit surprised when the package arrived. The boxes of grits were nothing like the description. The photo used in the ad is apparently a stock photo of some kind? While that was only annoying, what ruined it for me was the fact that these are quick grits. Please, don't call them Southern Style, if they are quick or instant grits. I certainly would not have purchased quick grits had that been stated somewhere in the description.

I ordered these at the end of January and did not receive quick grits as a previous reviewer did. I would have been mightly unhappy with quick grits as they don't deserve to ever even be labeled as grits...more like nasty hominy corn product. Anyhow, these are decent grits, they're ground to a good consistency and cook just fine.

Bob's Red Mill Organic High Fiber Pancake & Waffle, Whole Grain Mix, 26-Ounce Bags (Pack of 4)

Bob's Red Mill Organic High Fiber Pancake & Waffle, Whole Grain Mix, 26-Ounce BagsI bought this because I have recently switched over just about all of my food to organics. I was so happy to see that I could fix something that seems like a treat and yet was pretty darned good for you without being loaded with chemicals. I bought a waffle iron (the Presto Flipside--also 5 stars!)just for this batter. It works great in the iron and tastes amazing in the mouth! My family loves getting a special belgian waffle breakfast with berries on top every once in a while just to switch it up. You can make extra and freeze them then heat them in your oven on the rack again in about 12 minutes. I love it when DELICIOUS and CONVENIENT are combined with HEALTHY! I haven't even tried it for pancakes yet, but I'm sure it's just as wonderful.

I tried this mix for the first time today and the pancakes were SO good! They have a nice texture and delicious flavor. The nutritional value is great. They have 5 g of fiber per serving as well as 6+ grams of protein depending on how you prepare them. I will purchase these again. This is just another wonderful product from Bob's. I am a huge fan of their products.

Good fiber mix and nice alternate for other grain breakfast foods.

If you have a family of more than two, you should go through the

four pack in good time. Otherwise, one may have to freeze some extra

packs.

The pancakes and waffles taste great! I just follow the simple batter recipe, included in the packaging.

I use a Presto 3510 FlipSide Belgian Waffle Maker. I also like to add organic, cage free eggs and almond milkwhen making batter. With grams of fiber (28% DV) and protein per serving, the nutritional value of this mix is very high. There is no saturated fat, trans fat, or cholesterol in this mixbefore adding the eggs and milk. I added a pic of the nutritional information. The price is low, but the quality is very high. In order to maintain the most potential freshness, I store my unopened bags in a freezer and the open bag in the fridge.

I agree with the negative review that this mix produces very grainy waffles when made as instructed. I don't mind it that much. In fact, I chew very slowly and keep it in my mouth to allow the flavor to fully hit my taste buds with minimal syrup. My husband, who like most people, prefers smooth texture, does not like it even when paired with syrup. He does like it better when pairing the waffle with a much stronger sweetener buckwheat honey, which also gives the end product a nutty flavor. My son, who is 7, does not like it, either, because of the visible dark grains in the waffle he thinks it's "dirty". My 4-year-old daughter does not seem to mind it when paired with syrup.

That said, this is an honest product with all natural ingredients and definitely not one of those food-like products with smooth texture to lure you but are bad for your health in the long run. This is how waffles were supposed to come out 100 years ago when steel mills were not around and people were eating stone ground grains and living a much healthier life style. You can't beat 7g fiber per serving!

I recently learned that with whole grain products, egg whites can tone down the grainy texture compared to whole eggs. That's what I will try when the next shipment arrives. Another thing I will try is to put a pack of Truvia in the batter to sweeten it up a bit.

The shipping was quick. The product arrived intact and as described. Overall, I am happy with the product and the shopping experience.

Klein's Naturals Turkish Apricots, 13-Ounce Tubs (Pack of 6)

Klein's Naturals Turkish Apricots, 13-Ounce TubsI was very happy with these dried apricots. They were clearly superior to more expensive product I purchased at my local supermarket. They have a very nice flavor and there were no tough, overly dry pieces as I have found in other products. The one pound container is very convenient and, in my kitchen, was suitable for storage after opening. My box of six one-pound containers arrived in good shape, perhaps because it was part of a larger, well packed order. I intend to order the product again.

These are the best dried apricots I have had to date. They are wonderful dried fruit. The preservatives are also minimal. Well done...

I love apricots and have been fortunate to have travelled to Turkey and had real Turkish dried apricots. While traveling there I had found there were definite differences in size, taste, quality and freshness. These imported Turkish apricots are very good quality with excellent flavor and consistency. Having read the previous reviews I was concerned about the packaging, however they came in perfect shape. They are very well packaged six clear plastic tubs arrived in their own cardboard box (like a six-pack of bottled beer) covered in clear plastic all around, and packaged again in amazon's usual box with air pillows. if the tubs get broken, then the two boxes they are all contained in have to get crushed as well. A great product and I will gladly purchase them again.

This brand's attributes are nicely positioned between Harmony (tough) and Sun Maid (soft and sticky). The pieces are large: only 5 per quarter cup as opposed to 6 for the other two brands. I had no problems with the packaging: the plastic film seal was intact on all my containers. The plastic containers are thin and brittle, so I guess they could break with rough handling.

Want Klein's Naturals Turkish Apricots, 13-Ounce Tubs (Pack of 6) Discount?

firstly, the packaging. all of the tubs were opened, plastic cracked, tubs lids do not fit the bowls so they can't actually close and seal the contents, it looked like one tub was eaten out of, apricots missing. Looks like this stuff gets shipped from turkey and they repackage it in Brooklyn into really lousy packaging that does not fit. i used to live in Brooklyn, that place is full of rats. the fact that all the tubs came opened, lids don't fit, and plastic seal is broken is beyond disgusting. i can only imagine under what circumstances they were repacked down there in brooklyn. again disgusting.

finally these are not Natural Apricots, they are full of Sulfur Dioxide for preservative. If i could give this mess a negative 5 stars I would.

Bob's Red Mill 7 Grain Cereal

Bob's Red Mill 7 Grain Hot Cereal -- 25 ozI use Bob's Red Mill 7 Grain cereal in a really good recipe. I add in different kinds of dried fruits and cook it in my crock pot. When I wake up in the morning I have yummy hot cereal. I can't find this product in any store around me. I am so glad Amazon.com found it for me. Thank you!

My home made whole wheat bread is wonderful when I have include this cereal on hand. I would highly recommend it.

My wife and I use this 'cereal' to make our breads more friendly to Diabetic dieting, where breads made simply from plain or whole-wheat flours alone are NOT that friendly. (we do also use it for cereal now and then.)

High Fiber, moderate protein and authentic texture. Full of healthy nutrients. This is a great base hot cereal. You can add brown sugar, peanut butter, fruits, protien powder and you would stay full for hours. This is not a instant cereal, so I would advise microwaving the bowl or stove top cooking, over pouring hot water over the dry cereal. Great for weightloss

This listing is for one 25 ounce bag. There are other sellers selling 4 packs for about the same price. It states that this is 8 cents an ounce. Well 25 times 8 would make the price $2. Search some more and find the 4 pack listings.

Honey Bunches of Oats Honey Roasted, 24.5-Ounce (Pack of 3)

Honey Bunches of Oats Honey Roasted, 24.5-Ouncethey have done something recently to make this much better. crunchy. improved taste. it's got the right amount of sweetness without getting carried away.

We are very pleased with the larger size boxes of my husband's favorite cereal. He was constantly running out of cereal before. Now, I have this on auto-ship, so he never runs out! Plus, I safe money and trips to the store. YAY!

Ounce for ounce, you will get the most bang for your money with this 3-pack of cereal. If you're a fan of HBOO, then buy this 3-pack and munch away-at breakfast, for a snack, for dinner when you're feeling lazy and don't want to cook, and even for a late night snack. I only wish I could buy the 3-pack of the Almond flavor but the honey roasted ones are tasty as well. If you're a sucker for saving money, then this will keep the kids happy and you will probably blow that saved money on toilet paper.

Fiber One Chewy Bars Oats & Chocolate 36- 1.4 Oz Bars

Fiber One Chewy Bars Oats & Chocolate 36- 1.4 Oz BarsI looooooooove Fiber One bars! The Oats & Chocolate flavor is my favorite. They taste soooo good! We buy them in the big packs at BJ's because my husband & I each have at least 1 every day. They are filling enough that I can eat that for breakfast, or for a quick snack on-the-go. We used to eat Quaker granola bars but the Fiber One bars taste way better & are far more filling. I highly recommend them!!!

These just simply could not taste any better. Seriously, if I had a thousand calories to use to improve the taste of these bars, it wouldn't change a thing. They are already 100% delicious, and healthy too! They are great for anyone looking for a low-calorie, low-fat dessert that is filling and delicious. The 35% daily fiber intake per bar is just icing on the proverbial cake.

I could eat one right now...or two.

Ok first off, these are the best tasting bars ever! Here's the catch... they will give you the worst gas on earth. Ok, so after having one, I got terrible gas, but eh, figured it could just be me... then the wife had one and went through the same nightmare, the gas lasted for like a full day and night straight.

It's scary people, very scary. We loved the taste but after trying a 2nd time and having the same results, we threw them out.

Giddy Up & Go Granola Seriously Seedy, 11 Ounce

Giddy Up & Go Granola Seriously Seedy, 11 OunceI've tried this granola once beforetried a sample at a coffee shop and I remember it being crunchy. Although the package I ordered is tasty, the texture is more chewy, which leads me to believe it arrived a bit stale.

Cream of Wheat Instant Hot Cereal Cinnabon 3 Packs Per Box (3 Boxes)

Cream of Wheat Instant Hot Cereal Cinnabon 3 Packs Per Boxbut the consistency of the Cream of Wheat is pretty runny and I like my hot cereal thicker. I need to try using less water. What I REALLY wish is that the Cream of Wheat folks would make a Cinnabon version of their product that you cook on the stovetop. Now I think that would be perfect. However, as a quick little something to take to work or for a midnight snack this works pretty well.

Dorset Cereals Simply Delicious Muesli, 12-Ounce (Pack of 5)

Dorset Cereals Simply Delicious Muesli, 12-OunceWe love Dorset mueslis and have had a few different ones on subscription with Amazon over the last year or two. The Simply Delicious flavor is our favorite, however.

I have enjoyed this style muesli all of my life but have never had one that had such large chunks of nuts in it as the Dorset Simply Delicious. That is my favorite thing about this muesli. The rest of it is great as well not too sweet, hearty, and just so yummy. My husband has his with milk, I prefer it with Greek yogurt. Either way it is a treat for us, not just breakfast.

I love this product. It is excellent with shredded apple and vanilla yogurt. I also add chopped fruit and maple syrup.

Buy Dorset Cereals Simply Delicious Muesli, 12-Ounce (Pack of 5) Now

Having read other reviews of the Dorset Simply Delicious Muesli I was looking forward to receiving it. I haven't been able to find a muesli that I really like in our local supermarkets. I was disappointed with the Dorset Simply Delicious muesli's taste. It was more like cardboard than cereal and devoid of much taste. I'm sure it's healthy, but I can imagine eating it daily.

Fortunately, I was able to find a muesli I like on Amazon. The Familia Swiss Crunch with Sunflower and Pumpkin seeds is much tastier than the Dorset and has a better texture. Everyone has his/her own taste, so don't let this review keep you from trying the Dorset product. However, do yourself a favor and give the Familia products a taste, as well.

All of the Dorset cereals are great but the dark blue box is the best. It is not too sweet and has a ton of nuts along with oats & dried fruits. Hardly any grocery stores carry Dorset anymore so it is great that Amazon still sells it!
