I just tried regular Shredded Wheat for the first time in my life...

It's so tastless, but so filling. If you're eating something like Special K, and are still left hungry, instead of having another bowl of Special K, have some (unsweatened) Shredded Wheat... seriously.

... and  know that shredded wheat cereal is old news, but I thought maybe there are others who are just waking up, like me

I think I might have tried shredded wheat a while back. I don't remember it having much of a taste either...lol. I tried it dry, is it better in milk? I hate that it has so many calories. I wonder if 1/2 a serving is still filling?

I tried it once.. didn't like it too much. My sister loves it though.

 

I don't have any milk right now so I had it dry too.. but yeah it's probably better in milk!

You could try adding some fruit, like berries.

I don't think I'd like it dry. Definitely better with milk.

I have a girlfriend that is lactose intolerant, and so she's learned to use water in her cereal for moisture. I'm not sure how that'd fair with Shredded wheat, i myself am a cornflake girl. Always adding fruit.

Kashi has some great cereals with the nuts and fruit you might want to try. They taste so good, surely they can't be as good for you as they say.

My husband turned me on to Weetabix for my whole grain cereal. But he sprinkles sugar on his, not so good. I couldn't imagine eating it w/o milk. Must be like eating cardboard w/o the moisture.

Good luck to you.

try it with vanilla silk soymilk... yum.

did you know they make strawberry shredded wheat, that is like coated in a thin strawberry glazeish with strawberry pieces. it is really good and i'm not sure if its really any significantly higher in calories.
