We love the Heritage Flakes

We love the Heritage Flakes for the taste and that they hold up a long time in the almond milk. We’re wondering if you have any gluten-free cold cereals, as my wife is trying a gluten elimination diet. Thanks for a great product!!!

I sadly miss the Synergy 8

I sadly miss the Synergy 8 Grain Cereal that has been discontinued. At least now that I checked your website I’ll stop looking all over for it. I’ll give Heritage Flakes a try if I can find them. I think Synergy 8 Grain Cereal had more protein, though I may not be remembering accurately. Do any of your cold cereals have more than the 4 g of protein in Heritage Flakes? thanks!!

Thanks very much for your

Thanks very much for your feedback, Shirley. The Synergy 8 Grain Cereal has been discontinued. You may wish to try our Optimum cereals, including the Optimum Banana Almond which contains 10g of protein. All the best, Heather, Brand Ambassador, Hemp Plus Granola lover

Hi! I’m out in Korea and I

Hi! I’m out in Korea and I picked up a box of this cereal at Costco! I love the cereal and I can’t eat any other brand anymore. Thanks for making it available all the way out here. Do you have any plans of selling any of the other cereals in Seoul?

I just picked up a box of the

I just picked up a box of the Heritage Flakes Friday for the first time, and after having it for 2 mornings, I think I can safely say it’s my new favorite cereal. I used to love Bran Flakes, but they don’t satisfy for very long and most brands have HFCS in them. I love that there is the same healthy-branny-flavour in the Heritage Flakes, but that they are HFCS-free and much more satisfying. :-)

Is this the same cereal as your 8 grain synergy? I can’t seem to find it on the site and it is my favourite one!  Looks similar.

Hi there, great question.

Hi there, great question. Unfortunately, our Synergy 8 Grain Cereal has been discontinued because it did not meet sales expectations. I would suggest trying Hertiage Flakes, as it is a tasty, low sodium cereal made with crunchy whole grain flakes that is sure to satisfy your taste buds! Best, Kyla, Brand Ambassador, Gorilla Munch Addict

I disagree. I like 8 Grain

I disagree. I like 8 Grain Synergy Flakes much better, and I would not call the 130mg of sodium per serving in Heritage Flakes “low sodium”. Nature’s Path lost this customer.

Love this cereal. My new #1. Very tasty, great crunch, the flakes are substantial and satisfying to eat. Only wish it came in a bigger box. Thanks!

Hi Susan, thanks for taking the time to write to us. I agree, Heritage Flakes are the perfect blend of crunchiness and substance, and healthy too!

This is my absolute favorite

This is my absolute favorite cereal, but my commissary does not carry it anymore as of just a few weeks ago since they rearranged the store. I plan to ask them if they could restock it so I don’t have to live without it! There is another grocery store nearby and they don’t have it either but it would cost twice as much as I was paying at the commissary.

I think the portion size is a

I think the portion size is a little unrealistic why cant it be a full cup? Most people eat at least that or more.

Is this a good cereal to have

Is this a good cereal to have if you are following a lowfat , low carb diet?

Hey there, products with 3g

Hey there, products with 3g of fat or less are considered ‘low fat’ according to government guidelines, and this cereal has 1g of fat. At this time there is not an official index for low carb, so we recommend consulting with your health care specialist to find a suitable product for you.

This is my daily go-to

This is my daily go-to cereal. It has a nice, hearty flavor, almost with smoky undertones, but it’s not so intense that you’ll get sick of it if you eat it every day. The crunch holds up well in milk, and it will keep you feeling full for a while. Nice, interesting mix of grains. A nice standby cereal, but not boring.

I’v been searching for a

I’v been searching for a cereal that has combines low cal, low fat, whole grains, a little sweetness, is healthy and tastes great desperately for years! After discovering this, my search is over and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Plus, I actually look forward to eating breakfast in the morning now! YUM!!!

I am 56 years old and have eaten cold cereal my entire life. I wanted to drop you a line to say I just tried the Nature’s Path Heritage Flakes this week and have been enjoying it very much. The flavor, texture and health benefits make it my new favorite cereal.

They changed the formula.

They changed the formula. Now with 1% LESS Fiber, 2% LESS Vitamin A, 2% LESS iron and 1% LESS salt. Guess they are cutting expenses and passing the reduced health benefits and reduced fiber onto us. Seems unfair.

Thanks for your comment! We

Thanks for your comment! We actually haven’t changed the formula. Because we only use organic ingredients in our cereals, the nutrition fluctuates naturally depending on various factors, including crop conditions, climate, growing location, ingredient nutrition etc. Therefore, the nutrition on the boxes is an average of the testing conducted. In order to make sure our nutrition values remain accurate over time, we also try to retest yearly, which can lead to a change on the nutrition panel even when we haven’t changes the formula.

I have been eating this

I have been eating this cereal or the PC equivalent for many years. It is not too sweet, and has some amazing ingredients. I find that most cereals don’t ‘stay’ with me long, but this one keeps me satiated for a few hours, at least!!

I love this cereal! I’m

I love this cereal! I’m trying to watch the amount of carbs I eat but I love my bowl of cereal in the morning. This is a nice crunchy, satisfying cereal that tastes great, so it’s perfect for me!

Heritage Tomato and Basil Salad

Heritage Tomato and Basil Salad

This recipe is based on the classic Italian bread salad called panzanella. Instead of using day-old white bread cubes as Italian cooks do, we substituted Nature’s Path crunchy Heritage cereal with delicious, wholegrain results. It’s fun to use heirloom cherry tomatoes of various colors, or you can substitute plum or beefsteak tomatoes for a moister salad. Turn this side-dish into a vegetarian main dish by adding cubes of vegan cheese, mozzarella or provolone, or crumbled feta.

Makes 4 side-dish portions

Heritage Stuffed Portobellos

Heritage Stuffed Portobellos

Hearty portobellos are the steaks of the vegetable kingdom. Using handy cereal flakes instead of breadcrumbs to stuff them with an herb-scented mix for an elegant entrée that will satisfy vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike.

Serves 8

NOTES:
1) If mushrooms don’t have stems, substitute 1/4 lb button mushrooms for the stems.
2) For a vegan version substitute nutritional yeast to taste.

At Nature’s Path we recommend you use organic ingredients whenever possible.

Heritage Apple Cake

Heritage Apple Cake

This luscious, homespun cake is decoratively topped with sliced apples and has a delightfully light crumb. If you like, serve slices with a dollop of Stonyfield Farm Vanilla Chai Ice cream or your favorite Stonyfield Farm frozen yogurt on top.

Yield: Serves 6 to 8

At Nature’s Path we recommend you use organic ingredients whenever possible.

This recipe was created especially for Nature’s Path® by Lorna Sass, the award-winning cookbook author of Whole Grains, Every Day, Every Way and Whole Grains for Busy People.
