Cereal Alert!

I just want to say: YUM!!! I bought a box of Kashi's U cereal a while back because honestly, I liked the box. I don't buy cereal very much, and this one was an impulse. I have been snacking on Bear Naked's Heavenly Chocolate granola (mmmmmm) lately.



Today I broke open the box of Kashi U and wow! It's so tasty! There are whole grain flakes, granola, walnuts, black currants, and acai berries. Dang! The bonus is that this box is super cute and I can think of a million craft project reuses, especially for this big bright U on the front. Bonus number two is that you can sign up for Kashi updates and be entered to win a year of free food. Score! Bonus number three, which should be number one, is how healthy this stuff is. Look:


350mg ALA omega 3 from walnuts and 100% of vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid

50% of your daily value for vitamins A, C and E as well as zinc and antioxidant super fruits black currant and acai

More calcium & vitamin D than half a glass of milk* plus zinc to support bone health

7g of fiber and prebiotics to help the good bacteria grow

Over half of the daily recommended amount of whole grains


Whee! I feel more energetic already!
