Quaker Life Cereal (Honey Graham)

Quaker Life Honey Graham CerealI was perusing the cereal aisle when I came across Quaker Honey Graham Life Cereal. The regular version of Life cereal is one of my favorites for its simple yet tasty and healthy nature, so I wanted to see how this cereal compared to the original.

The Honey Graham version looks identical to the original Life cereal, but the taste is a bit perplexing. It's hard to pinpoint the difference in taste between the two - but it's there and I would say this one is better - but only slightly.

NUTRITION FACTS
Serving Size: 3/4 cup
Calories: 120
Total Fat: 1.5 gram, 3%
Saturated Fat: 0%
Sodium: 160 mg, 7%
Protein: 3 grams
Carbohydrates: 25 grams

Price: $3.14 (21 ounces)
The ingredient list for both is the same with the exception of the addition of "natural and artificial flavors" to the Honey Graham flavor. This version is crunchy and mildly sweet, but I can't quite identify the taste - not much of a honey or Graham cracker like flavor. In fact, being sweet is probably the best descriptor for this, although it's not overwhelmingly so - it just doesn't have a very interesting flavor profile (but how complex do you need your cereal to be).

Each cup of QuakerLife Cereal (Honey Graham) provides 160 calories, 3 grams of fiber and 10 grams of sugar. I paid $3.14 for a 21 ounce box at Target.

Despite the indescribable taste of this cereal, it's quite yummy, but I like my cereal to have a bit more fiber/ substance to them for the calories. Still, this is a decent choice, and not a bad way to go when you're on a diet.

Wasn't this discontinued?

Alas - it looks like this flavor is gone.
