Wild Harvest Natural Raisin Bran Cereal
By: | Nov 6, 2009
You're looking at a cereal fiend here! I just love the stuff and while I have my favorites, I still keep an eagle eye out to try new ones.Wild Harvest Natural Wholesome Raisin Bran Cereal seemed to call out to me when I was at the grocery store on my last trip. The packaging design made me pay attention, but it was the nutrition claims on the front of the box that made me decide to try it: 24 whole grains per serving, excellent source of fiber and good source of iron ... why not! I must say that Raison Bran is not my favorite type of cereal (it might be my least favorite), but hey, there must be a good brand out there somewhere - and this could be it.

I have to admit - this stuff is good - hard to believe I'm saying this about Raisin Bran, or maybe my taste buds have evolved to appreciate the more nutritious cereals. The flakes are perfectly crunchy and lightly sweet. The raisins are deliciously plump and provide a nice change in texture from the crunchy cereal.
Each cup provides 180 calories, 28% of the daily value for fiber and 5 grams of protein. The ingredients are all natural and the taste is great. What more could you want from a cereal?!
I found Wild Harvest Natural Raisin Bran Cereal on sale at Jewel for $3.50. Overall, this doesn't provide too many calories, but you will get loads of fiber and a decent amount of protein, which helps make this cereal satisfying. If you've been turned off from Raisin Bran cereals before, then give this one a chance to change your mind. Two thumbs up from me
