 One of my Top Favorite Cereals! Can't wait for breakfast!Nov 18, 2010
By ccincalif

I have been telling my friends to try this cereal because I like it so much. The best thing I like about it, after the taste, is that its actually GOOD for me! I tend to like some cereals which aren't the best thing for me to be eating as I'm in my mid 40s, but this one tastes fabulous (not too sweet, either) and is a very healthy choice. I totally disagree withe the other reviewer who says this cereal is "bland"-it is anything but bland. I am what most people would call a "foodie"; I live to eat, not eat to live. Most of my friends trust my opinion in foods because they know how picky I am, and I'm also a total "label reader." I feel good when I start off my day by eating something healthy as it sets the trend for the rest of the day. Hope they don't discontinue this product...I love it.

My favorite cerealJul 09, 2010
By Philip
The best cold cereal I ever had and I'm in my sixties. Healthy, great taste, not overly sweetened, keeps its crispiness in liquid (I use Silk soy milk). Add some dried cranberries, almonds and fresh fruit for added goodness.

fiber content is wrong on the label, not 11 but 6!Oct 21, 2011
By gardener97
A fellow dieter corrected me today and directed me to the Nature's Path website where it says:
"March 22,2012 ...This cereal does indeed have 6g of fiber per serving and the product details and nutritional panel on the website have been updated to reflect this; we're sorry for any inconvenience."
[...] then scroll to the Optimum Slim
I am very irritated at the difference in numbers. Amazon's label says 11 grams of fiber, my box says 9 and their own site says 6. Corrected to 6.
But it is a delicious cereal and so easy that you will be willing to eat breakfast - high in fiber (6) and protein (9) - and all organic. If you are really running late, pack up some in a zip-lock and munch it in the car. I like it so much I get it in the Subscribe & Save program on Amazon. It does cost less than in the grocery store.

Overall, best cereal on the market imhoJul 12, 2011
By mark from nc
First of all, the reason why I buy this cereal is because of the stellar nutritional stats it has: 9g each of fiber and protein per cup for only 7g sugar. The taste is perfect - there's a perfect amount of sweetness to it so your mouth isn't awash in sugar but at the same time you don't feel compelled to add any sugar or other sweetener to it. It's probably sweet enough that small children would like it, but I don't have any small children around to test this hypothesis. I also love its texture - it's incredibly crunchy, so if you have bad teeth it may not be the cereal for you, and by the time you finish a bowl it's still pretty crunchy and not at all soggy (not like other cereals that practically disintegrate by the time you're done with a bowl). It's pretty neutral in its flavor aside from the aforementioned subtle sweetness, so you could add whatever fruit you wanted to it. I'm a big guy (trying to become a bit smaller lol), and one serving of this with some soy milk will keep me satisfied for a couple of hours (a balanced breakfast includes more than just cereal, but I'm like most people and usually on the run at breakfast time so I have this with a glass of orange juice only).
So there you go: great nutrition for a cereal, great taste, great texture, it's relatively filling, and it's quite versatile. And the price on amazon is SO much better than what you'll get in the store.
Like I said though, if you've got bad teeth, it may be too crunchy for you, and small children may or may not like it, although you could probably get them to eat it eventually if they don't like it at first.
Great CerealJan 21, 2012

This is a good tasting cereal, with low fat and lot's of fiber. I add some fresh fruit and skim milk, to form a balance breakfast. This cereal is not carried in all supermarkets, plus, the price is great on amazon!
