I love my GoLean and PB Puffins but sometimes, I crave something that’s a lot more like those sugary kids’ cereals and I’m not afraid to admit it. I’d never buy a box of Apple Jacks or Frosted Flakes, and I’ve recently discovered a better way to deal with my temptation.
I saw this cereal a while go, and knowing Newman’s Own reputation, I decided to try it out.
Nutritional Info:
Ingredients: Wheat Bran, Sugar, Oat Bran, Flaxseed, Honey, Salt, Barley Malt Extract, Natural Flavors, Mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E) Added For Freshness.
Taste: The cereal was really crunchy and sweet, which is just what I wanted. Sugar is the second ingredient on the list, but it is only 8 grams per serving (compared to 19 grams in Raisin Bran, 13 grams in Kashi Go Lean Crunch and 12 grams in Frosted Flakes). I also like the addition of flax in it and the short list of ingredients.
I would not put this in my regular cereal rotation but it is definitely a good one to satisfy cravings for sweet cereal. I’d like to try other varieties as well, but for a 100 cals in a 3/4 cup serving, sign me up!
What cereal do you like the most?
need to find a store—Publix quit selling–poor jugement !!!!
thank you
I tend to eat oatmeal only, but I wondered about this one. I may need to try it.yum!
I will definitely be back for more ideas, you have a great blog!

Kashi Island Vanilla is my favorite cereal!
I never saw that kind of cereal before, but I’m really not that big on super sweet cereals anyway.
My absolute favorite cereal is Kashi’s Honey Toasted Oats; So yummy!
My favourite is Kashi GO Lean Crunch- hands down!
Thanks for the recommendation! I love cereal so I have to pick this one up once I run low on all the others!
wow i really like how short the ingredient list is!! I just may have to try this cereal out!
Wow. Those stats are great! I’ll have to look for those. Thanks for the review!
I like the TJ’s cereal that reminds me of Kashi GoLean Crunch, but better: it’s honey almond flax and it’s deeeeelish.
This cereal sounds great to mix with PB puffins and Go Lean. If I bump into it in the store I am def going to buy it!! Thanks!
Healthy Cereal-Kashi Go Lean or heart to heart
Unhealthy–Fruity Pebbles!
Happiness Awaits
i literally never buy the same cereal twice. it seems like there are always new ones on the shelves – when my box runs out, i restock with something new!
I could die happily with a box of anything from Kashi in my hands. It’s all just so good!
Right now I’m lovin Kashi U and Kashi GoLean crunch with honey, almonds & flax but Quaker oatmeal squares are one of my all time favs. I like plain cereals that I can add a lot into! Otherwise, my favorite unhealthy cereal is cocoa pebbles and cinnamon toast crunch, although I haven’t had either in forever!
I will have to look for this! It sounds good!
My favorite cereals include:
All types of granola
Raisin Bran
Plain Bran Flakes (I eat these dry for a snack!)
Ah Paul Newman, def the best looking face on a box of cereal
I’m so boring…my fav cereal is plain Kamut Puffs (with added carob chips!). Mmm.
Basically, all cereal from the Kashi company rock my life. Fiber, taste, crunch, you name it they’ve got it!
i’ve never seen that cereal.
my favorites are not the best for me
- cinnamon toast crunch
- cocoa krispies
- cap’n'crunch
BUT, I rarely eat cold cereal. I have to have something more than that for breakfasts, so if/when I do have cereal, it’s usually a snack.
Do we love Paul Newman or do we love Paul Newman?! Look at that face – timeless.
I don’t eat much cereal lately but I love me some Nature’s Path granola!
P.S. Rob likes Cookie Crunch and eats it for dessert sometimes.
PS-lately, I’m all about the Barbara’s shredded spoonfuls (or pb puffins, always) !
I’ve seen that cereal on several blogs but never at actual grocery stores!
Where did you find this gem??
I had no idea Newman’s made cereal! I love raisin bran and raisin bran crunch
Kashi GoLean is by far my fave, but this cereal looks right up my alley. I’ve never seen or heard of it before though!
I’ve never seen that cereal! I love kid’s cereal every once in awhile too, like cinnamon toast crunch (cascadian farms cinnamon crunch) or frosted flakes (they have this envirokids cereal that’s yummy). That Newman’s Own cereal sounds great!
i have been so curious about that cereal.. esp. the strawberry flavor.. i may have to buy myself a box (or two
!!) thanks for the review, girlie!
