I am a single, thirty year

Submitted by Seth (not verified) on August 31, 2010 - 18:08.

I am a single, thirty year old working 50-60 hours a week to make just to eek by, not that millions of others are not, but i have tried my hardest to eat as healthy as i possibly can. As you are well aware money is tight for everyone, and in an age where the line between homeless and housed is razor thin, you can imagine how ASTOUNDED i was by how little cereal was in this package! i mean almost to tears shocked, $6 might not be a whole lot to you, but to someone who routinely misses a meal because of money so i can make sure what i DO put in my body is the best, it killed me to see this box was essentially 2 bowls worth of cereal. i always heard that Natures Path was the apex of wholesome and organic foods, and to a point, i suppose that you still are… but unfortunately i can’t purchase your foods anymore i really don’t think i could handle opening another package, only to find that “sold by net weight” also means selling off my stuff just to have a bowl of your cereal. sadly yours. seth corts

Hello Seth. We are very

Hello Seth. We are very sorry that you are dissappointed with this product. Our products are packed by weight and not volume. However we do offer eco pacs as a value option for many of our cereals which contain up to 907 g of cereal (the equivalent of more than two boxes of cereal) priced for added value. This fall we are launching a new stand-up version of our eco pac for even more convenience. All the best, Heather, Brand Ambassador, Hemp Plus Granola lover

This really is the best

This really is the best cereal I’ve ever had, my only problem with it is that its not a full box! There really isn’t enough inside the box as compared to the other bad cereals.

Hi Angela. Thanks for taking

I like this cereal a lot… but I am astounded by how very little of it there is in a box. Even in the new, smaller packaging, I notice that the bag is only half-full! Makes me shudder to think of what it used to look like before the box shrunk.

I purchase a box for the 1st

Submitted by Dan Mihai (not verified) on April 15, 2010 - 08:37.

I purchase a box for the 1st time because of the high protein content for my wife who is pregnant and needs a diet rich in protein. So far so good, but I was wondering, do you have cereals that have a higher protein content /serving?

Hi Dan, thanks for your

Hi Dan, thanks for your question! It looks like you made a great first choice for you wife, as Optimum Banana Almond offers the highest level of protein per serving of any other Nature Path cereal. Our Optimum Rebound Banana Nut Matcha & Flax energy bars also contain 10g of protein per serving http://www.naturespath.com/products/bars%20and%20cookies?tid=7&brand=All….

Is this another one that you

Submitted by Christine (not verified) on March 22, 2010 - 09:18.

Is this another one that you have reformulated?? I know it has a new name (formerly Optimum Rebound), but like the complaints with changes to Optimum Power, I must say this new version just doesn’t taste the same. It’s quite a bit more dry, with barely any raisins to speak of. The old version was more concentrated like a granola and tasted so hearty and filling. I’ve tried a few boxes of this since the name/packaging change and its just doesn’t cut the mustard. NP why do you insist on messing with the winning formulas (i.e. the old Optimum Power and Rebound)? Also, the name changes and new advertising slant seem a little gimmicky.

This is seriously the best

Submitted by Bella (not verified) on March 19, 2010 - 08:19.

This is seriously the best tasting cereal I have eaten in a very long time. And it has so many nutritious ingredients packed into such a small volume. It’s very filling and super delicious with a half cup of vanilla almond milk. Yummy! I feel like I am making the healthiest choice in the morning.

This cereal is SO good. I

This cereal is SO good. I love the choice of ingredients and the nutritional balance. Great job! The sunflower seeds really add a nice touch & finishing taste.

Excellent cereal.

Seriously, I cannot live without this cereal and get very sad when I don’t find it on the shelves. High protein, high fiber and absolutely delicious. What’s not to love. Keep up the great work!

This cereal is the BEST!

This cereal is the BEST! Please don’t ever discontinue it!

Kamut® grain
The only whole grain grainy enough to warrant its own trademark. It’s an ancient relative of wheat, and it’s also always organic. Now that’s our kind of whole grain.
Matcha green tea
Some people drink this mindfully, in elaborate ceremonies. And some like to scarf it down in a bowl of cereal. Regardless of how it goes down, it’s known to forestall aging and wipe out toxins on the way.
