These are surprisingly satisfying for being gluten free. It's even better when I add bananas and some pecans to it. I've even used these to bread things with and it worked out quite well.

A very good type of cereal - perfect for someone like me who is gluten-intolerant
what a great way of beginning my days. thank you !

I truly like this brand of Cereal. It's crunchy and low calarie with all good healthy ingredients. The flax taste initially takes a little bit to get used to. I mix in fresh berry fruits such as rasberries, blueberries or blackberries which enhances the cereal flavor. It is also a good deal to purchase under the special promotions for grocery products. The only downside to watch for is the packaging expiration date. I found that the expiration date is relatively short. For example, I purchased this product in May '09 and it will expire in July '09. It comes in a pack of 6 boxes each weighing 10.6 oz. If you are a big cereal eater, that shouldn't be a problem.

I am a runner who needs quick fuel when i'm hungry, and this cereal makes perfect snacks for me throughout the day, and especially at night. It's light enough to munch on to keep my energy up, without giving me a sugar crash later, and the fiber fills me up. It can be difficult to get quality, convenient whole grains on a gluten free diet, but this cereal helps out.
i love that I can fill up a big bowl without consuming tons of calories (I'm a volume eater!)
it has a light sweetness that makes it tasty to snack on plain, and mixed with nuts and dried fruit for a snack to go.
and of course its great with milk, yogurt, and mixed into smoothies. I highly recommend this cereal, its the best gluten free cereal I have tried, and I've tried lots!

I've used this product for a year and find it really taste good plus it is gluten free which is a requirement for me.

I and my kids loved this cereal. For having only 4 grams of sugar, it was quite tastey. We have been trying to avoid as much hidden MSG as possible, and this was a pleasant way to do it for breakfast.

This is one of the best gluten-free organic cereals there is on the market! It actually has fiber. Taste good and is good for you!

Nature's Path Organic Mesa Sunrise Cereal is a delicious alternative to corn flakes. It has a hearty,delicious flavor. It contains quinoa (the revered grain of the Incas) and amaranth (the health grain of the Aztecs) For a cold cereal,it's quite good. It also makes a great snack! Take a bite,and imagine the mesas and canyons.

I should have been more careful in checking ingredients and get very angry when products purport to be healthful (ie, organic, gluten free, top-notch and unusual grains) but miss the mark.

Nature's Path describes this as "...cereal of flax, corn and amaranth." Now look at the ingredients which, of course, are listed from most to least. The first 2 are cornmeal and corn flour--hardly the most nutritious of grains. Third is organic evaporated cane juice yielding 4 grams of sugar per serving, and then come the flax, buckwheat, quinoa and amaranth.

JUST HOW MUCH OF THESE SUPER GRAINS CAN POSSIBLY BE INCLUDED if the 3rd highest ingredient is the sugar at 4 grams?!

And that's another pet peeve: why any added sugar at all. Most health-conscious consumers do not want added sugars, even cane juice. And this also leads me to question the "nutrition facts" posted on the products. If cane juice is the 3rd item in quantity, and corn has a relatively high sugar content, can there really be only 4 grams of sugar per serving?

I've tried around a half dozen gluten free cereals and this is by far the best (in my opinion). The down side is that it's expensive so I purchase it whenever Amazon offers a special deal or it's on sale at my local health food store.
