Hello, I love your cereal. Do you know the breakdown of the dietary fiber: how much is soluble & how much is insoluble? Soluble is more effective in lowering cholesterol, so I am interested in that. Thank you.

The total fat content is 10 g, you list only 9.6 g of the 10. Where and what is the .4g that is not listed??

Submitted by to nicolette (not verified) on August 10, 2010 - 18:18.
FDA FOOD LABELING GUIDELINES Since it’s 9.6g…It seems your company rounds it to 10g. The discrepancies occur when you list: 1.6g,5.2g,2.8g>>>why round the total fat and not the subdivisions of types of fat. Rounding should be the same for the entire fat category—-in the end you get the same amount of grams anyway.

I just purchased this product at Costco. I loved the Dietary Fiber and Protein content. I didn’t think the taste would be great since the Nutritional Info was superior to other products. I was wrong and I love the taste. However, I agree with the review posted by Anonymous on 8/3 that it is a little too sweet. I honestly had to go back to the box after taking a bite of it to check the sugar content. Other than that I am very pleased.

I just started eating this granola and love it. I add a little bit of protein powder and ground flax to each serving, topped with Low-Fat plain Kefir. Delicious.
My only wish is that this granola was not so sweet. I am not diabetic nor have any condition where I need to watch sugar content, I simply think it tastes a little too sweet (therefore less like a meal, which is my preference, and more like a snack). I’m sure many people out there love the sweetness, after all, so many are “addicted” to sweet tastes and/or do view this as a sweet treat. It would be nice to have a less sweet alternative for the rest of us whether for medical, dietary, or choice/taste preference reasons.

Thaks for your great comment! The flaxseeds that we use are not all fully ground or crushed because they go rancid very quickly without refrigeration or the use of preservatives.

Hi, When it comes to boxed cereal most of them just aren’t to good for us. They either have way to much sodium or sugar and lack the dietary fiber that we need. I found that Nature’s Path came as close to eating healthy as there is without making your own from quick oats or steel cut oats.

Thank you for your comment.
Submitted by Heather on July 22, 2010 - 13:43.
Thank you for your comment. Our granola is not gluten free beacause they contain oats. There is some discussion regarding the inclusion of oats. It seems that the protein in oats does not do damage, but the concern is the possibility of cross contamination of a gluten containing grain in the field or during the milling process. Therefore, at this time in North America most oats are not acceptable in a gluten free diet.You may wish to try some of our certified gluten free cereals, including our Crunchy Maple Sunrise, Crunchy Vanilla Sunrise, Mesa Sunrise Flakes and yummy Whole O’s.

A “Tree-hugger/earth burger”
Submitted by Flower (not verified) on July 14, 2010 - 08:48.
A “Tree-hugger/earth burger” weighs in on the changes of the Pumpkin Flax Plus Granola. I buy this product in San Diego. Nature’s Path claims to be organic and therefore they can charge more money for their product because of that. And therefore being a health/nutrition conscious consumer that prides myself on being a “tree-hugger/earth burger” I trust Nature’s Path to provide a high nutrient/calorie food with no harmful ingredients packaged in an environmentally sound way. Well there have been changes made to the product without the company being completely forthright about it in the last month. 1. They no longer sell it at my Costco. (Only the one with raisins, which is not the same.) 2. So now I have to pay more to buy it elsewhere. 3. The taste and crunch and pumpkin seed content in fact have changed, not for the better. The granola lacks the “hard” crunch it used to have and the pumpkin seeds seem to have disappeared. The granola no longer remains “chewy” while floating in the mix of fage yogurt and soy milk. It’s more like wet paper. 4. It doesn’t take a scale or measuring cup or rocket scientist to see that the content of the “new and environmentally improved” smaller box does not have the same amount of product. Trust me, no one “weighs” their breakfast cereal. 5. On a similar note, shouldn’t a box of cereal have at least one week’s worth of servings in it instead of only half a week or 4 days? So now you have to buy 2 boxes instead of the one anyways? I guess that would mean that we would realize that we are spending approximately $8 a week on breakfast cereal instead of $4. Are we really having truth in advertising? 5. McDonald’s may be able to fool the average American into believing that their food is “good for you”. I felt superior in knowing that McDonald’s is falsely advertising their product as “food”. Now I’m questioning my knowledge and trust in Nature’s Path in their promotion of “organic health” when the above issues have been raised. 6. I would not have even written this review until I read all of the other comments above addressing the same issue and I became more concerned that I am not the only one disappointed in this product by Nature’s Path. I’m not sure what it’s going to take to get me to buy another box, except for a return to the original formula, packaging, weight content perhaps? The proof will be in the proverbial yogurt/soy milk “pudding”.

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us, we appreciate your feedback. We are very sorry that your purchase did not meet your expectations; your comments about Pumpkin Flax Plus® Granola have been passed onto our Brand Manager. Our granola at Costco is packaged in an exclusive, jumbo- sized box that is not available at other retailers. This granola is available on a temporary basis and is alternated throughout the year. I would suggest putting in a special request with the customer service department at the retailer if they stop selling the promotional item you are seeking. In addition to Costco, our products are sold at Sam’s Club, BJs, Wal-Mart, and are available at most major retailers across North America, and at many health food stores too. You can be rest assured that we have not changed the ingredients of this product, nor have we reformulated it. Our granola is formulated to stick together in clumps, and we now include larger clumps in this product for those seeking the clusters of yumminess. In terms of the granola serving, the previous standard box contained 11.5oz net weight of product and the new box also contains 11.5oz net weight. This product is also available in a 26.4 oz bag, called an EcoPac bag and also as a loose/bulk product at some health food stores for your convenience. Lastly, our products are USDA Certified Organic, which means they don’t contain artificial preservatives, additives or genetically modified organism (GMOs) and the ingredients are not grown with toxic pesticides, chemical fertilizers or fumigants.

4 servings isn’t “about 6”
Submitted by Paul Loner (not verified) on June 16, 2010 - 18:18.
4 servings isn’t “about 6” My wife and I have been eating the granola for a while now. We enjoy the taste and were impressed with the new packaging. We were surprised at the amount of settling that still occurred, and when we measured the serving size we discovered that there were only four- 3/4 cup servings in the entire box. The nutrition facts states that the servings per package is “about 6.” Four cups is not “about 6.” We don’t mind paying for good granola, but when there is false information on the box it is hard to accept any of it. We are not sure if Nature’s Path is a company worth our continued support. Please let us know how you intend to correct this matter.

Submitted by Kent (not verified) on May 30, 2010 - 10:55.
Discovered Flaxplus at Trader Joe’s about 6 months ago and am now buying in bulk at Costco. I eat straight out of the box as a snack with my afternoon tea. There have seen several complaints on this page about the lack of pumpkin seeds. I noticed that too. But an easy solution is to buy pumpkin seeds (Pepitas) on the side and throw a bunch more in to each serving. A cheap, easy and healthy solution to a minor problem with Flaxplus.
