Catalina Crunch Protein Cereal - Sugar Free Breakfast Cereal with 11g of Protein - Gluten Free, Keto Friendly - Fruity - 8 oz. Bag (Pack of 1)

Great to have a protein cereal that is not soy based, sugar free, especially no erythritol, gluten free and dairy free. I've now tried most of the flavors, the berry is a good addition to my favorites, cinnamon or graham variety.

Ok here are the facts from my perspective as a long time keto, low carb, paleo, fitness lover.1. Yes this cereal is crunchy2. Yes it has a ton of fiber and if you eat too much, you could get a stomach ache or poop3. It is a smaller bag for the money4. If you eat real sugar AT ALL, this will taste weird to youIf you have been tried a million low carb treats out of desperation, this will taste like Trix Cereal! I love it! I also love the chocolate and cinnamon. I don’t care how much it costs, it is such a treat to eat when you’re low carb! Everyone else, just take it out of your cart lol

This is labeled a cereal but the packaging states it is a snack. I thought it would be like a fruity pebbles type deal and eating one of the large thick squares did have a slight resemblance but a weird medicinal, xylitol flavor/after-taste. The squares are a tough chew, in yellow, off white, and dark red colors - I'm unsure what "fruit" is supposed to line up with each color - the yellow square is tolerable, white is no flavor except for the odd aftertaste, the red like a piece of cardboard with odd aftertaste. I tried 5 squares as a snack and couldn't go any further - I'm a minimal eater so that was enough to fill me eating as is, but despite being low carb and gluten free, which was my goal, I don't think I can bring myself to suffer through any more of this product. I bought the cinnamon one as well but don't think I want to try it. The cost for these items is outrageous considering how badly these taste and in no way are thin and small enough to be consumed as a cereal.

Second time ordering this, good for long time keto dieters needing something crunchyGreat to snack on or with almond milk in a small bowl, or to make a keto trail mix.The first time I got just the maple flavor because it was the only one anyone in these reviews had anything positive to say about. They were alright but there was just too little for the price.This time I got the fruit ones and was surprised that I like them. They taste like most fruity cereals, but with that artificial sugar taste of course. Not really bad if you've been on keto and are used to that enough. If you only just switched to a keto diet these aren't for you..

I love catalina crunch products, but this one sort of had a perfume flavor to it.

Alright so, for a keto, gluten free cereal, this is the best you are gonna get for a bearable price. If you are expecting actual cinnamon toast crunch in every way then you are going to be disappointed. It's a nice little snack that will be a little comfort food while also being keto and gluten free.For context, I have tried the fruity, the chocolate, and the cinnamon flavors and I liked them all.The flavor is great, exactly what you are hoping for. There is a real Erythritol aftertaste, which some people are more sensitive to than others. If you know you really hate that, then this is not for you.It's also very, i'd say dense. If you've eaten keto or gluten free for any amount of time you already know that the texture is pretty well impossible to get right. I personally don't mind the texture, it tastes good and thats enough for me.Another complaint ive seen is the serving size, and the amount of cereal in the bag. Honestly compared to other options, its the best price ive seen. And truly for me I treat it kind of like a nice granola. Yeah, its a little expensive, but I dont ever eat more than a small amount at a time. For me it's very filling, and even if it isnt for you, its a delicious little snack. And at that rate, even this 8oz bag lasts a good while. If you are out here looking to replace your giant dinner bowl of cereal every day then this is probably not for you. I usually have just a small condiment cup full with some almond milk and it makes my evening. Or even grab a few to snack on on their own.I've been doing keto for a while now and it's been a long time since I've had something that i actually ENJOY eating without having to spend a bunch of time preparing it. It seems like most of the complaints here are based in disappointment from bad expectations, rather than an actually bad product, so hopefully this helps you decide if you wanna give it a try or not.I recommend it highly, but like with every keto option, its NEVER going to be exactly the same.

I really like this cereal! I’ve had the chocolate one and the fruity one. They are both good!

I like the way it holds crunch even after sitting in milk but there's a flavor in that that bothered me, I'm guessing it's artificial sweetener. In fact, I found the flavor so bad that I had to eat something else afterwards to get the taste out of my mouth.On the plus side, the product portion is so small that I didn't have to endure it for long.
