Last night my husband and I had to go over to Lunds, normally I am not a very big breakfast person when I am working at 7am. Today I came home early, so I decided I would give this a try. I got the Honey Bunches of Oats with Real Peaches. Wow, normally I am not very big on healthy cereal but usually I enjoy Honey Bunches of Oats. I do have to be careful not to over do it on wheat products, but it quick and easy and didn’t require me to stand a long time on my ankle.
A serving is 3/4 cups and is 160 calories with 1/2 cup of skimmed milk. Since I am allergic to milk I use soy milk which I believe may be less or just a little more then that. I will say I am surprised that the Vitamin received from eating this isn’t higher, it’s got real fruit bites, so it just seems the vitamin should be a little higher. There is no cholesterol which surprised me but the Sodium is a higher then I would like to see.
Fiber is only 2g which is low considering this is main has whole wheat and oats and corn in it.. So it surprising that that all we get from fiber. I am not saying it bad or good but just seems a little low.
There is no calcium in the cereal but I wouldn’t expect their to be. Calcium is a little harder to come by.
Over all the Cereal tastes good it a little bit on the sweet side of the scale, but the peaches really do taste nice. The cereal is pretty crunchy to which is nice.
I was surprised how filling the cereal is, I hope they keep the peaches one in their stock because I really do like it. It’s a nice treat but grant it tonight I have to figure out what to eat that doesn’t have a bunch of wheat in it. I wonder if Hilton Head rentals has this type of cereal for breakfast. It’s was great seeing the peaches in the cereal it added some nice color, and since they made the pieces big enough you can tell what they where unlike some other cereal, were they have fruit but good luck telling it’s fruit and not part of the cereal bits.
