I will admit it.....I am a cereal addict. I have loved cereal all of my life and at any given moment you will find a multitude of varieties in my pantry. Every time I go to the grocery store I find myself gravitating to the cereal aisle and browsing the aisle looking for new flavors to try. It is my favorite snack at night and I even throw dry cereal in a baggie as a snack throughout the day.
I was so excited to have the opportunity to try several of the new Weight Watchers cereals through the BzzzAgent® campaign. I was sent the oat clusters with cherries & almonds and the frosted shredded wheat with protein varieties.
I was instantly drawn to the oat clusters with cherries & almonds. Typically, most cereals use cranberries or raisins, so, the addition of dried cherries was a nice twist. The cereal was packed full of crunchy granola clusters and whole dried cherries. The serving size is 3/4 cup and counts as 3 WW points plus. It was flavorful and had a nice contrast of textures.
I used my husband as my guinea pig and asked him to try the cereal. He was not enthusiastic about trying "Weight Watchers" cereal and told me he was just going to try one bite. Before I knew it he had eaten the entire bowl. He said the chewiness of the cherries made him feel like he was eating something substantial and thought the flavor was fantastic.
The second cereal I tried was the frosted shredded wheat with protein. It has 40 grams of whole grains and 6 grams of protein per serving. Serving size is 1 cup and counts as 5 WW points plus. My husband was not as big of a fan of this variety, but, I really liked it. The shredded wheat is hearty and filling and was perfectly sweetened.
There are five flavors of the new Weight Watchers cereal and I can't wait to try all of them. I am particularly excited about the chocolate frosted shredded wheat. Look for them in your local grocery store and give them a try. You won't be disappointed.
I received this product free through the BzzAgent® campaign, but, my review and opinions of this product are solely my own.
