Special K Low Fat Granola Cereal, 19.5-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 5)

Lower fat granola usually tastes lacking, and are sold generally at organic food stores, which are inconvenient and more costly. This product tastes great, particularly for a national-brand granola. You'll have to shop carefully on price, because the current prices I'm seeing on Amazon (4/1/2010) is exceptionally high. But, if attainable at a good price, it's a great granola.

I am not especially fond of cereals and only eat the Regular Special K which I like a lot.

So I was pleasantly surprised when I recently discovered the low fat granola ones as they are, really, delicious cereals!

I mix it with the Regular one and that is even better!

Conclusion : nothing else to say but SIMPLY DELICIOUS!

Difficult to find in supermarkets though, maybe because it is a new product, but we are lucky to have Amazon!

Anyway, I highly recommend this product and advise everybody to, at least, give it a try.

My criteria for a good breakfast cereal:

1. Low fat(I usually don't like more than 3 grams of fat per serving)

2. Low price (I usually look for cereal on sale for no more than $3 per 15-16 oz box)

3. Healthy and filling (not overly sweet or chemically fruity. Also I like it oak-y (as opposed to flakes" and bulky/chunky. So I gravitate towards granola type cereals. It is a little on the sweet side for my taste, but not over-powering (I removed 1 star for it, but it's more of a personal preference kind of thing. I'm guessing this might not be too sweet for other people).

So, this cereal is 4 to 4.5 stars for all criteria. Although I would like a little dried fruit in it, I definitely am not complaining. It has a great taste and is very filling. Also good to snack on right out of the box. If you get this on subscribe and save, it's $3/box (and each box is a bulky 1 lb + 3.5 oz Awesome)! This cereal normally goes for over $5/ box in NYC when it isn't on sale, so this is a real bargain.

My whole family loves this stuff and it is great to add to things like yogurt. Just make sure you get a good deal on it and don't eat it like cereal as it is pretty dense and has a lot of calories when eaten in same quantities as cereal. A little goes a long way.

KIND Fruit + Nut, Gluten Free Bars (Pack of 12)

These are a staple on my grocery list from Amazon (I get two boxes a month on the "Subscribe and Save" program, and often have to "send next shipment now" because I share them with friends at work). However, I've become alarmed when I open the newer boxes / packagesthe bars are at least an inch shorter than they used to be.

I thought maybe I had a few from the "end of the roll" or something, but it seems rather consistent now. The cellophane wrapper is the same size, but the bars are missing at least a full bite of what the bars used to be. And the prices keep going up. I like these, but at some point the decreased "value" will get to a point where I'll find something else to snack on.

The bars are very good, and priced very competitively, but after ordering a large order, I was disappointed to find many were near the manufacturer's expiration date. If you buy, buy in quantities that you would eat in a month or less.

This healthy bar is so delicious that it's like eating candy. Something this yummy shouldn't be so good for you but it is. The Almond & Coconut is one of my favorite flavors.

It seems the almond & apricot bars were changed when they switched from the 8 pack to the 12 pack so that they added more apricot or sweetness in some way. I was happy with the less-sweet version, but the taste is still divine. The kids' favorite are the fruit & nut, but this is a close second. The subscription price beats all the market prices I've seen.

Nature Valley Crunchy Granola Bars Oats 'N Honey - 96 Bars

I know this sounds crazy. I discovered this method accidentally one day when the oats n honey bar slipped from my hand and dropped into the sink. Not wanting to waste the food, I thought "eh, I'll just rinse it with water and gobble it up." Much to my surprise this rinsed half-bar tasted MUCH BETTER than the original. It serves two purposes: To "tenderize" the bar, making it become a soft tasty crunchy instead of the hard, uninviting crunchy, and also washes away a lot of the sugar making it a lot tastier and healthier (the bars are originally too sweet in my opinion). People have said "eat it with water" etc. which helps with the dryness, but it simply is not the same as rinsing or dipping in water. Ever since I started using this technique the bars have gone from merely good-tasting to heavenly.

These granola bars are crunchy, tasty, filling, and perfect with my morning coffee. Two bars per package. Although they are nutritious and convenient, each package equals 4 Weight Watchers (WW) points. Kashi bars (honey and flaxseed) contain more fiber, are equally delicious, but have only 2 WW points! Hoping to find this option in bulk on Amazon.com soon.

I bought a small box of these in a retail food store and found them really tasty. They also don't deteriorate into a melted blob of sugared crap when you leave them in a hot car. In fact it's one of the few granola bars that is mostly granola, and no extra high fructose corn syrup, sugars, etc. The 96 bar box lasts a long time and the per bar price about 1/4 the cost of buying them one at a time in a store.

Boxes contain 45 packs, hence the 90 bars so don't be surprised, comes out to about .47 a pack and at work they are .70 so it's a better deal for me.

Oats N Honey is the best flavor full of sweet and very crunchy. The only thing I would think to change are the crumbles that fall when I eat it. But even that I wouldn't change because I love the crunch and love the flavor. Yum!

Bob's Red Mill Organic High Fiber Hot Cereal with Flaxseed, 20-Ounce Bags (Pack of 4)

Been eating this cereal for about a year now. For a couple of years I had been eating a brand that's sold in our area, but it was not organic. Once I saw this on amazon I had to try it. I eat it five to six mornings a week. I substitute once or twice a week with organic eggs, cheese & vege's. When I eat this cereal I mix it with organic frozen blueberries & a banana. What a way to start the day. My blood work at my last yearly physical was excellent, and my doctor let me know. I'm 52 years old and abused my body for 25 years with drugs and alcohol. I now live a clean life, spirit, mind, & body and this product fits right in. Have plans to try a few more of Bob's products in the future.

This is an amazing hot cereal. It has no artificial ingredients. It is very high in fiber, which means it should lower cholesterol. Since I have started eating it, my high blood pressure has dropped nicely. I try to cook it as little as possible, so I put it in a bowl of hot water, and then microwave it for only one minute. I add a little sweetener, usually stevia and/or Splenda, and then I eat it. Some people may not like the taste (a few might say it tastes like sawdust), but I think it's delicious. Cheap, healthful, easy to fix, filling, and delicious ... what more could you want?

A few years ago, I lost 50 pounds and this was a big reason why... a high fiber breakfast that held me for hours! I've used it to keep the weight off, and enjoy how quick and easy it is. Sprinkle it into a bowl, add some water, throw it in the microwave... I enjoy mixing in thick rolled oats, flax meal, bananas, berries, anything for variety when needed... soymilk on top and you're good to go! Love it!!!

We feed this cereal to our 27 month old son every night. It seems to help him get a full stomach and he sleeps longer at night. It has also helped with his constipation. It has 10 grams of fiber and 1000 mg of OMEGA-3 per serving and he loves it.
