Uncle Sam Toasted Whole Wheat Berry Flakes & Flaxseed Original Cereal, 10-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)

This cereal has lots of crunch, good fresh taste, NO sugar and good amount of protein. It is the only cereal I buy. Excellent with fruit added and any type of milk product.

I have Diverticulitis and to prevent flare-ups I need to keep things flowing smoothly through my digestive system. Uncle Sam's Original Cereal has 10 grams of fiber with less than 1 gram of sugar and no added sugar. I am currently doing Intermittent Fasting to lose weight and fat, and I eat this cereal during my 8 hour eating period to make sure I get enough fiber to "keep me regular". The Flaxseed and Wheat Berry flakes are also added health benefits and this cereal also is a good source of ALA Omega-3.I used to eat this like normal people do - in a bowl with milk, but now I put it in a cup and take mouthfuls at a time. It is not a bad tasting cereal, but if you are looking for a sweet tasting cereal. look elsewhere. I have looked at many rankings of healthy cereals and this one always seems to be in the top 10. It is not sold everywhere, so finding a 6-pack here at Amazon was definitely a plus.

No flour or sugar and it taste good. I use it in my yogurt and berries for breakfast.

Once I found this cereal decades ago II have recently resorted to internet purchases as it is not found anymore on my grocery store shelves. Onc bowl of this a day and I get a big dose of the fiber I need for a productive digestive track because of the flax seed action. Not only is it effective I love the flavor and crunch. Delicious, I do add honey and sometimes fruit. Amazon's price and packaging selection is a far superior deal than what on-line Wal-Mart is offering.

About the cereal:Uncle Sam is a plain, healthy cereal with lots of fiber from whole wheat and some essential fatty acids (healthy fat) from flax seeds. It has no added sugar and very little naturally occurring sugar, making it a good choice for anyone watching his/her sugar intake. It definitely takes some chewing if you eat it dry or right after adding your milk/non-dairy milk but the flakes get very mushy and the flax seeds absorb some liquid quickly so unless you like soggy you want to eat right away! There isn't a great deal of flavor here so I like to use a vanilla almond or coconut milk with it or even pair it with some fruit. My 5 stars isn't as much for the flavor as for the nutritional content but it is still a good cereal!About the price:I have yet to find a store selling Uncle Sam for a lower or even comparable price to the one you pay if you buy this from Amazon with subscribe and save! My mom and my sister both eat plenty of this cereal so I am very happy to have it delivered by Amazon at a great price every few months; I always have a stash of it in my cupboard for when family is here!

Why pay for tons of ingredients your body doesn’t need?! If you don’t like the taste add cinnamon, bananas, raisins or whatever else the taste buds like and the body can use.It’s a great product big corporations don’t want you to know about.

I discovered Uncle Sam while trying to drastically cut the amount of sugar from my diet. At less than a gram of sugar per serving, this cereal definitely does the trick! I always add either blueberries or strawberries, since my sweet tooth still isn't under complete control yet ;o). From a financial standpoint, Amazon does a terrific job of keeping the price reasonable and, with the Subscribe and Save feature, it is less than any supermarket I've seen (including my personal favorite, Trader Joe's).Why only four stars since the product is good and the price is right? After recently researching the benefits of flax, I figured I had this covered, seeing as it is one of the ingredients in my daily bowl of Uncle Sam cereal. However, everything I've read states that the flaxseed must be ground to elicit benefit from it, as the whole seed simply passes through the body undigested. If that's the case, then the flax is there merely for the crunch that it adds, and not for nutritional value. It doesn't mean I'll eat any less of the cereal, but that I just need to incorporate flax in my diet somewhere else.

Uncle Sam is one of the only, if not, high fiber cereals that is also very low sugar. The flavor takes some getting used to but once you're in, you're in, and it tastes fine. The price here is quite a bit more than the cereal (in principle) sells for in stores, but US has pretty much disappeared from all the stores in my area, so this is now de facto the price. So if you've gotta have it, like me, Amazon is the only way to go.
