Ahh, I LOVE new products. Whenever I see them, I become an instant impulse buyer and put them in my shopping cart. This box of cereal certainly was no exception.
When I opened the box, I was a little surprised. It looks like mostly tiny flakes, with a few pieces of oats thrown in. Granola or oat clusters happen to be my favorite parts of cereal, so I was a bit bummed out.
The flakes were kind of airy, slight honey flavor, and I could certainly tell it was a wheat flake. It had that nutty after taste to it that I notice with wheat products. The oat clusters were, of course, the best part. Sweet, crunchy, slight honey/vanilla flavor. I wish there was more of them, and I wish they were BIGGER!
One thing I did love- the PORTION size! 1 1/4 cups! I hate when cereals have anything less than a 1 cup serving. I’m a cereal girl- and I like to munch on a lot with fruit and milk for a perfect breakfast 🙂 There’s also 43 grams of whole grain per serving according to the box, and 5 grams of fiber. I’d say this is a 4 star rating for me!
1 1/4 cups is 210 calories, 1.5 grams of fat, 49 grams of carbohydrates, 5 grams of fiber, 9 grams of sugar, and 6 grams of protein.
What’s your favorite Kashi product?
Yum! I’ve not seen this one! I love Kashi cereals!!
My favorite Kashi cereal is definitely Cinnamon Harvest. I loove the crunchy texture of the shredded wheat biscuits with lots of cinnamon already there.. + some berries & banana = yummmmy breakfast!
I’m a HUGE fan of their frozen food, but for cereal I really like their Honey Sunshine. It’s one of those that I feel compelled to finish the box within 3-4 days.
FYI, I had to change my blogspot..I’m now at http://www.anbshilling.blogspot.com. Yes its been a pain!! thanks!
banana is my go-to fruit for breakfast with cereal as well. delish!!
