Hot Cereal Enjoy Like Oatmeal

Hot Cereal Enjoy Like Oatmealtaste combination between oatmeal and cream of wheat.... just added lc brown sugar countdown low carb milk, butter and it was great.....

This in no way resembled oatmeal to me. It was more like a gritty cream of wheat. No amount of cream, butter, nuts or anything made this edible for me. I was very disappointed because I love oatmeal and this was a very expensive 2 spoonful meal!( that's all I could eat).

I am a huge fan of this hot cereal, and I buy it by the bucketload. A serving of the cereal, with a pat of butter, some sweetener, a pinch of salt (my secret ingredient), a few berries, and some nuts, makes for a delicious breakfast that doesn't spike my blood sugar, and is terrifically filling. It's not beautiful -the chia seeds in the mix make for a....uh, call it an unlovely consistency -so I wouldn't be feeding it to guests, but the taste is great, and I am big-time picky.

Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds

Honey Bunches of Oats with Almonds, 14.5-Ounce BoxGreat cereal, Honey Bunches of Oats is a household favorite and the Almonds one definitely adds that flavor. Good amount of almonds mixed in and the same great taste.

Packaging was pretty good, with all 4 boxes wrapped together in plastic. Easily breakable plastic so that you can get each box out individually, but still maintains grip on the remaining boxes.

I love this cereal, but I ordered this pack on Amazon and ended up getting 4 boxes of stale Honey Bunches of Oats that expired. You're better off going to the grocery store where cereal doesn't expire for another year to year-and-a-half.

Post Honey Bunches of Oats is an all-time favorite cereal for everyone in the family. We all like it and that makes it a great cereal to have in the pantry. The giant size lasts much longer than the small boxes. The price could be more competitive to in-store sales, etc, but the cereal itself is fantastic.

PowerBar Power Gel C2 MAX - Box of 24 (Vanilla)

PowerBar Power Gel C2 MAX - Box of 24I recently ran a marathon in November and trained all summer using Clif Shot Energy Gels during my LR's. However, during one of the races I ran this summer they gave out PowerBar Gels and I loved them. I recently bought an entire box of PowerBar Gels to train for a marathon in January and I can't see myself ever switching. Here are the pros/cons:

PowerBar PROS

* thinner consistency which makes it easier to swallow

* great taste I have the Strawberry/Banana and found them to be the best tasting gel I ever had yet. 9.5 out of 10

* easy to open the packaging is very easy to open, even with sweaty hands during a run

PowerBar CONS

* haven't been able to come up with one yet

Clif Bar PROS

* Litter Leash on side of package to keep from ripping the top off. Keeps the entire package in one piece to prevent littering.

* Overall I can't complaining about the taste. 8 out of 10

Clif Bar CONS

* Hard to open these Gels are almost impossible to open once your hands get wet.

* Thick consistency these Gels get thicker in cold weather and become very hard to swallow. Plus the gel itself is a bit more powdery (Chocolate) then PowerBar.

I used these gels while training for my first marathon and finally during the marathon 4 days ago. They were an invaluable tool in helping me finish. If you take one every 45 minutes, your energy level stays constant throughout the run. The Strawberry Banana flavor is also very tasty.

I must preface this review with: I am a Gu fan. I've tried so many different brands, flavors, and types of gels/blocks/cubes, whatever, and I love Gu to get the job done. For PowerBar, I've tried the Vanilla, which is really delicious. It tastes like cake frosting! However, the vanilla does not have caffeine, so this does not fill my needs. I have tried the Double Latte, which I abhor--I thought it was AWFUL. It just stuck to my teeth and wouldn't go down, and yuck yuck yuck. I love coffee, too. But as a liquid, in a mug! :) I have heard from many runners that they enjoy the Green Apple, so I might try these in the future. The PowerBar brand is a thinner consistency than Gu or Clif, so sometimes I think it goes down a lot easier, especially if you're not near a water fountain or aid station. If the vanilla had caffeine, I would probably stick with that one. I couldn't run the distances I do without gels. I take one on a daily run of 7-8 miles, I'll take 2 gels on a weekend run of 14-16 miles, and I'll take 3 on a run longer than 20 miles (in addition to Clif Bars). I hope this helps someone make a gel decision!

Oh, in addition, I want to point out that PowerBar gels are made in a facility that manufactures dairy products, whereas Gu does not. I hope this helps the allergy sufferers out there!

I'm an avid cyclist and XC mountain bike racer. Like most gels this has all the clean burning fuel one needs for a quick boost pre-ride or, most importantly, during an endurance experience. The taste is great, but what I like most of all is the texture...not at solid as the others so it goes down much easier, especially when one is gasping and grasping for breath and water bottle to wash it down. It feels more organic and easier on the gut also. It's the best I've found.

If form factor was not a concern, the tangerine PowerBar Gel would be hands down my favorite all around gel. The taste is great, it packs enough caffeine to pick you up if you're about to bonk, and the wrapper is thin enough so that it is easy to squeeze out every last drop of gel from the wrapper. The thin, low profile wrapper is great if you put gels in your pocket, as most exercise clothing is thin and low on space. It's also less likely to poke you than other rigid gel packages.

That said, if you tape gels to your bike frame like I do, the thin wrapper that works so well for squeezing works against you if you want them to stay flush on the bike frame. They end up sagging over the side of the bike which not only can be an aerodynamic issue (okay, maybe not a major concern for everyone), but the added stress on the side of the package ends up prematurely tearing the gel open. I haven't actually experienced the wrapper leaking on my bike yet, but I have noticed the beginnings of a tear on the wrapper.

In conclusion, if you don't tape gels to you bike post, the tangerine PowerBar gels rock. If you do, consider Hammer Energy Gel (12 pack) instead (but Hammer Gels are a little more difficult to squeeze and get the gel out, and have a thicker texture).

Golden Swallow - Organic Walnut & Black Sesame Instant Cereal Mix Powder (4 Sachets) - 7 Oz

Golden Swallow - Organic Walnut & Black Sesame Instant Cereal Mix Powder - 7 OzI first discovered black sesame porridge when I was in Taiwan and looking for a breakfast cereal. I took an instant liking to it, even though I was not sure what the ingredients were, because all the packaging was in Chinese. I later learned that the main ingredients were black sesame seed powder and sugar. I have a sweet tooth and I love all things containing sesame oil or seeds, so this was an instant hit with me.

When I returned to the U.S., friends from Taiwan kept sending more black sesame porridge, but eventually it ran out and I ordered it here on AmazonBlack Sesame Instant Cereal Mix Powder (8 Sachets) 14 Oz. It was just as good as the one from Taiwain. I highly recommend this to anyone who is not diabetic. It does contain a lot of sugar. It's very easy to prepare: pour the powder into a bowl and add boiling water.

The mix is alright the flavor is correct. However, after I stirred in the hot water, the congee wasn't as smooth and sticky as I usually prefer. And I put in my usual amount of water (ie. amount I would use for zhi ma hu I'd buy in an asian grocery store). Overall, it's decent.

Wild Cloudberry Preserves (14.1 ounce)

Wild Cloudberry PreservesI would not have even known about such a thing were I not watching a PBS program about Sweden and its native recipes. Great with crepes, they taste like a cross between an orange and raspberries. I highly recommend giving them a try.

Cloudberries, of course they would taste wonderful. This is a remarkable preserve from Sweden. Cloudberries, where have you been my whole life?

On the PBS television show New Scandinavian Cooking, a beautiful cake called for the addition of a small amount of this lovely preserve on top. A search turned up this fantastic preserve from Sweden.

Hafi of Sweden has done a remarkable job creating a jam that is just the right amount of sweet and maintains some whole Cloudberry shape. Cloudberries are difficult to describe, they have the texture of strawberries, the color of peaches, and have the flavor more like gooseberry slightly tart, slightly earthy.

Although this is an expensive preserve, it is worth every penny for the little bites of heaven on toast.

Zing Oatmeal with Chocolate Chips Gluten Free Bars, 1.76-Ounce (Pack of 6)

Zing Oatmeal with Chocolate Chips Gluten Free Bars, 1.76-OunceTastes very good. Over all great bar! Not too sweet, so its good for bridging you to the next meal or replacing a meal. I didn't like the choc peanut butter so much, personally; however if you like heavy nuts go for it! Well thought out product line.

Zing bars are my new favorite on the go snack. I've tried a number of other gluten free snack bars, but they either didn't taste very good or were loaded with calories but little nutrition. Zing bars taste delicious and are very nutritious. They aren't exactly low calorie, but are very convenient to take along when you don't know what the day will bring.

Quaker Oatmeal Squares, Crunchy Oatmeal Cereal with a Hint of Brown Sugar, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of

Quaker Oatmeal Squares, Crunchy Oatmeal Cereal with a Hint of Brown Sugar, 16-Ounce BoxesThese are totally delicious, and also one of the few breakfast cereals without high fructose corn syrup (even All Bran has that). They are a bit sugary but not too sweet. Certainly filling and just what I like for breakfast, and so do my kids.

I'm not sure why Amazon isn't doing this on subscribe and save (at least when I'm writing this), but seeing as almost every grocery store I know of runs out of these on a fairly regular basis, probably worth getting from Amazon.

I grew up eating Quaker Oatmeal Squares, and they're still my favorite cereal and a great source of fiber I tried Fiber One for a while, but the aspartame in it gave me headaches and Fiber One leaves an awful aftertaste. Quaker's doesn't have aspartame, and there's tasty brown sugar which gives it just the right amount of sweetness (the cinnamon sugar one is really good too!)

What I love about Quaker Oatmeal Squares is that they're perfectly delicious with or without milk. They're super crunchy without, and after soaking in milk for a while they absorb the liquid and become like cereal-milk gushers. I personally like that, but for those who don't, you can always just eat the cereal immediately after adding milk.

This is a wonderful breakfast cereal! It is one of the few I found that is tasty, filling, and also relatively healthy. Most other cereals are overly-sugared, but Quaker Oatmeal Squares have just the right amount of sweetness. It's also especially filling. I've seen Amazon have the product on subscribe and save, but at the time of this review it's unavailable, so I'd check back. I purchased it through subscribe and save and saved almost 40% off the retail price in the grocery store.

I was so excited about this cereal when I tried it. I bought it off Amazon here and when it arrived I dug in. Well I had a headache and nausea episode quickly following. I suppose I ate too much as the little sample I tried before did nothing to me. It has to be the food dye as any other cereal didn't do that to me. I used to be allergic to yellow #5 and #6 before (it would make me jump off the walls as a kid!). I thought I outgrew it. Maybe this is an "adult" allergy. Quaker, keep the food dyes out! I love your dye-free oatmeal, why does this have to be so different?

This used to be my favorite cereal and I still really like it. However, over the years they have sweetened it more and more and it's just not as good as it once was.

Nature's Path Organic, Heritage Flakes, Whole Grains Cereal, 13.25-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)

Nature's Path Organic, Heritage Flakes, Whole Grains Cereal, 13.25-Ounce BoxesThis multigrain cereal includes grains not commonly found in cereal: spelt, barley, millet, and quinoa. It is tasty and keeps its crunch well after the milk has been poured on.

I have purchased this cereal by the case for years because it is that good. When I ordered this at the end of February 2012, we thought I ordered the wrong thing as there was a definite change. Thinner flakes, less flavor, and not as sweet. Not that this cereal is very sweet anyway, but there was just a hint of sweetness that was perfect for eating without feeling the need to add any sugar to it. Why in the heck did they mess with perfection? Now it's just OK, nothing special. Might as well eat mostly flavorless Total because that's what it reminds me of now.

If you like a flake cereal that doesn't sog up in milk, this is it. I personally prefer to have my cereal crunchy down to the bottom of the bowl. My 91yr old father, who has dentures, likes the taste but has a problem chewing them.

This cereal's crisp flakes have great flavor without a large amount of sugar or salt. The texture is a little harder than corn flakes, but not too crunchy. Makes a great snack or breakfast. I unpack mine and keep it in air tight glass jars to extend its life. Very delicious with fresh blueberries!
