Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal: Product Review

Cereal is one of the things we always keep in the house. It is great for a quick breakfast or even a snack late at night. Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal is one of the cereals that I buy on a regular basis that tastes good and is also good for you. It contains 100% of the daily recommended values for 12 vitamins and minerals.

Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal

Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal contains small squares of wheat and rice that are lightly sweetened and sprinkled with cinnamon. The squares are similar to the ones in Chex Cereal, but a bit more firm. This makes Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal crunchier, where it also lasts a bit longer in milk before getting soggy.

Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal is packed with vitamins and minerals. In fact, they claim to have the most calcium and Vitamin D than any other leading cereal.

Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal contains 190 calories per serving when eaten plain. Served with ½ a cup of skim milk, it contains 230 calories. Eating Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal is a great low calorie meal or snack that is also packed with vitamins.

My Thoughts

Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal has quickly become one of my husband's favorite snacks. He has a habit of having a bowl of cereal before bedtime each night and looks forward to this one.

I had only recently picked up any of the flavored Total cereals, having only bought the "original" flakes before. I have to say that these new flavors are not only healthy cereals but they are very flavorful too!

I try to buy cereals with low sugar content. My husband is diabetic and I also try to watch my sugar content also. His dietician never complains when he tells her that he eats cereal for a snack. She approves as long as the sugar content is not over 10 grams and not a food that is eaten excessively.

I like the fact that Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal stays crunchy in milk. It just seems fresher that way and makes for a more enjoyable bowl of cereal. The cinnamon flavor is just right, it gives the cereal a bit of flavor and sweetness.

Recommendation

Total Cinnamon Crunch Cereal is one of the better cereals on the market in my opinion. I love the healthy ingredients, vitamins and minerals. If you are a cinnamon lover, this cereal is for you!
