Cream of the West All-Natural Roasted Wheat Hot Cereal, 24-Ounce Box (Pack of 3)

Since i was a child i have loved Cream of Wheat and my mom fixed it for us often, especially in the winter months. Since studying the South Beach Diet and learning what the effect that white grains, breads, potatoes, etc have on the body, I have gone a long time longing for Cream of Wheat, but doing without as the products in the stores are not made with whole grains. Cream of the West is made with whole grains, has 6 grams of fiber and is very nutritious. It is very easy and quick to prepare, the flavor is wonderful if only made with water as the package directs. One could add brown sugar, raisins or other ingredients if they choose. Every time I eat Cream of the West cereal it is a treat, but I enjoy it often whether in the mornings or as a late night snack. I am delighted that I found this healthy hot cereal on line and I've been excited to share it with my friends and family.

I used to use the "Cream of Wheat" brand of whole grain Cream of Wheat, but I could no longer find it in the store. I looked it up here at Amazon, but it cost more than I wanted to spend, so I tried this brand. The other brand has all kinds of ingredients, while this one has only organic whole wheat. This brand is creamier and better tasting.Also, if you add one tablespoon each (give or take) of cocoa and agave nectar, it is like the Cocoa Wheat hot cereal that I used to have as a child.

I learned about this product in a hotel restaurant in Glacier National Park; they call it "Cowboy Porridge" and it is delicious. Made from ND Red Wheat. it is easily prepared, nourishing and sticks with you on cold mornings!

This cereal has such a nice consistency and tastes really good. I recommend you stir constantly for the 3 minutes you are cooking but it comes out really flavorful. Add a little milk and brown sugar or your favorite topping of fruit it's a lovely and healthy option for hot morning cereal. We are hooked on this. My husband used to eat cream of wheat but he said this is so much better. I've never had the other so I'm glad I found this one first!

Only received two boxes and one was opened, in which it some of it spilled out. Otherwise it was good.

This cereal makes me look forward to eating breakfast. It's more delicious and more nutritious than plain farina. My supermarket sells some hot wheat cereals that are meant as a healthier alternative to farina, but they don't taste as good, and leave me feeling hungry when I'm done eating. Cream of the West, in contrast, truly satisfies.

Most whole wheat products feel grainy and taste a bit "off" compared with the stripped-down (less healthy) white flour versions, but somehow "Cream of the West" Roasted Wheat cereal avoids this problem. At first I wondered if maybe they mix in white flour with the whole wheat flour, but the ingredient is just one thing: "Hard Red Wheat." We used to buy this at the stores in California, but when we moved to Tennessee we could no longer find it, so I decided to order it from Amazon. Delicious. Tastes as good or better than Cream of Wheat, but better for you.

Delicious. Not quite Wheat Hearts, but as close as you can get. Worth paying the shipping cost just to give it a try. Will buy again.
