Catalina Crunch Cinnamon Toast Keto Cereal: 9oz Bag of Low Carb, Sugar-Free, Gluten-Free, and Grain-Free Cereal

S. B.: I’ve been getting the Cinnamon Toast version of this cereal for several months from a local warehouse store, but they seem to have quit carrying it, so I’m devastated. It was a lot cheaper buying it that way, but at least it’s available here for me to get my fix. I’ll eat a lot less of it at this price, but I’ll definitely continue getting it.

I’ve been low-carbing for years, and I haven’t had real sugar during all this time. So that might affect my experience. My first perception of this was, hmm, lightly cinnamony. A little sweet. Not a lot of flavor. But super crunchy. Hard, really. Yet somehow, after several bites, I was hooked.

I’ve never actually eaten it like cereal in any kind of liquid. I eat it as a snack. I have a little snack cup (about a quarter cup) while I’m watching TV each night. Soooo satisfying. I also occasionally stuff a handful in my mouth as I’m going out the door. It’ll take me several minutes to (carefully...pointy edges!) crunch my way through it, and it has so much protein and fiber, it’s actually a *meaningful* mouthful. This really does a great job of tiding you over. It doesn’t leave you feeling *more* hungry,...

Jennifer: If you are looking to down a huge bowl of cheap Cap'n Crunch go for it and keep your one star reviews to yourself. That is not what this product is about. If you are on a low carb , high protein diet and cereal is something you are missing, you will love Catalina Crunch. I've bought the cinnamon and graham flavors and they taste great to me but i am not comparing to my old childhood faves. The texture is very crunchy and satisfying and you get to enjoy cereal. Yes the suggested portion is very small but for people on tight calorie diets that is to be expected. I've been doing Optavia and tried this to supplement my fuelings with something different. I love this cereal and think it should be judged in the context of what it is designed for. If you aren't sure, look for a single bag and don't buy the three pack or whole case.

Kevin W.: I bought this before reading reviews, which I almost never do, but after trying Magic Spoon cereal I guess I got brave. I read the reviews before the cereal was delivered, and when I took the first bite I was expecting the worst. Like sweet cardboard.. bad aftertaste, etc. But NOPE. It's amazing. Perfect crunch. Perfect taste. Tastes just like cinnamon toast crunch (or at least what I remember of it- been a while!) It's probably a good thing these cereals are so pricey for the amount you get of them, or I could eat bowl upon bowl of it.

It's definitely crunchy, can't hear a word my husband says to me when I'm chewing it. Not painfully crunchy though. If you like regular cereal crunch it'll be fine, just a tiny bit crunchier than them (and if you let it sit in milk for a while it softens eventually, but not too quickly!)

There's ZERO aftertaste. But again, it's been a very long time since I've eaten sugar regularly. There was a time where I had only been eating stevia drops as a sweetener, and when I went back to sugar for a year and then tried the stevia again, I was like OMG how could I like this?? It's true the longer you go without sugar the more your tastebuds...

Invoxicated: I've been on a low-carb diet for years and I've tried every so-called low-carb cereal that's out there. They either taste like shredded cardboard or they're loaded with chemicals you can't pronounce or they're super expensive.
I saw this product on the shelf at my local Whole Foods (read Whole Paycheck) and I gave it a try. I might be biased here because I haven't been able to eat cold breakfast cereal in years but with this product I've finally found an answer.
The pros:
1) Tastes very good, some flavors are better than others. Hint- if you liked Fruit Loops as a kid BUY THE FRUITY VERSION OF Catalina Crunchyou won't be disappointed.
2) Crunchy ( if you don't like crunchy, just let the cereal sit for a few minutes in milk or whatever you take cereal with)
3) Different flavors to choose from

The cons:
1) Expensive - the bag is small and costs nearly $9.00! For me I get about 2.5 bowls of cereal per bag. I use it as a meal substitution, especially at night when I don't feel like cooking.
2) Not available everywhere. I suppose it's bit nichy
3) It can upset your stomach if you eat a huge bowl of it which I want to do. I suspect it's the fiber in the...
