- I like this cereal
- I just love this cereal, no matter where it is sold. The only reason I bought it in Amazon is price. Normally the price in Amazon for this cereal is higher than the wholesale clubs and comparable to supermarkets, but it was on sale.

- My favorite cereal
- This is my all-time favorite cereal. I like getting a big dose of fiber to start my day, and these don't get soggy in milk like so many other high fiber cereals (raisin bran, for example).
There are several other versions made by different companies or even flavored differently, such as strawberry or vanilla, but time after time I always buy this one.
My kids enjoy eating it as well, and it's certainly better for them than the sugar laden, fiber void cereals that are marketed so heavily to kids. - 2008-05-30, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Full and Focused
- Kellogg's Mini-Wheats, 24-Ounce Box (Pack of 4).
Frosted mini shredded wheat is our favorite cereal. We have it for breakfast or supper several times a week. We like the flavor. The taste is important for us. We're not children, but we still like this cereal.
The fiber keeps us full and keeps us focused. The calorie count is almost as good as some of the lighter cereals, and we find we eat less by eating something filling.
The endosperm is a source of proteins and carbohydrates, and the carbohydrates give us energy. We rely on the wheat bran to keep us "fiberfied." According to the Kellogg's people, a bowl of this delicious cereal provides almost 25% of a person's fiber daily fiber requirement. We like the wheat germ, which has antioxidants, folate, thiamin, B6, zinc, magnesium, and manganese.
There are two problems. We can buy other brands that are less expensive.
I do not know that Kellogg's is superior to the cheaper brands. This is one kind of cereal that tastes good if I don't buy th pretty box.
The other problem is the sugar coating. When I was a child, my mother used to feed me those big shredded wheat biscuits. I probably added more sugar than I get in the Frosted Mini-Wheats. So that problem is not really a problem when I take an honest look at my eating habits. - 2008-05-17, 4 of 4 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- My favorite!
- Good amount of fiber in each serving. Not too sweet, not too much sugar and if you take a multivitamin you'll like that it's not over-fortified with a lot of the same things.

- A great cereal that's stood the test of time.
- One of the best all around cereals I've ever had. I may get bored with eating it and stop for a while, but I always end up coming back for more.
Plus it seems like a good value for the money when amazon has this under its special discounts. Sometimes you can get it cheaper at local stores, so make sure to calculate correctly. Though I rarely see the strawberry version of this product on sale locally, so if you can get the strawberry mini wheats in the amazon specials, I'd go for it. - 2008-02-08, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
