Total Cranberry Crunch Cereal with Omega 3
There are sweet clusters of oats and cranberries in every bite, and it seems that this fruity sweetness is infused in the flakes although they still retain the essential whole wheat flavor. The cereal is crunchy enough so that it takes a long time before it gets too soggy in the milk, but it's not "work your jaw until it gets tired" crunchy (I'm looking at you Kashi GoLean Crunch). One serving of Total Cranberry Crunch Cereal is 1.25 cups and has 190 calories, 2% of the RDA for total fat (1.5 grams), no saturated fat, 11% of the RDA for sodium (280 mg), 4 grams of protein and 44 grams of total carbohydrates, which includes 16 grams of sugar and 18% of the RDA for fiber (4 grams). One serving also contains 100% of the daily recommended amount for 11 vitamins and minerals, including calcium and vitamin E (that's definitely a bonus), as well as omega-3 fatty acids from flax. I'm not sure why there is so much sodium in this cereal, but I forgive them, since they included so many other healthy components. One 15 ounce box of cereal cost $3.89, which is not inexpensive, but I enjoyed it and would buy it again - it's Totally awesome. Comments

Sounds delicious!! I love Post Cranberry Almond Crunch, but the nutritional info doesn't fit my bill. I'll have to try this one!
