Julian Bakery® ProGranola® Cereal | Vegan | Vanilla Cluster (2)

This stuff is delicious, crunchy and healthy. Perfect for yogurt, or eat as a cereal with almond milk. Low fat, low carb, low calorie and delicious. A bit on the pricey side, but I think worth it.

I have to say that this has been one of the most robust culinary failures my taste buds had to endure in their life time of service. No matter what I used: milk, soy, coconut milk, heck even Acai and Orange juice, no matter how many accoutrements: fresh fruit, dried fruit, special brownie, it always and consistently tasted like flavoured saw dust.I guess its resistance to become palatable, no matter what, is one of its redeeming features. There is your 1 star for consistency.In a double blind taste test, test subjects were blind folded (now a tripple blind test) and presented with a bowl of fresh redwood saw dust and a bowl of this cereal.The test results revealed that all test subjects preferred BBQ pulled pork over any of the test flavours presented.Unfortunately this granola is so flavourless , even our chickens were like "Yeah, no" Now it is in a compost pile, I just hope the microbes and nematodes don't have taste buds, other wise I might find them going on strike.

After hours and hours of research to find a low calorie, low carb, low sugar granola, I have finally found THE ONE. If you are looking for something sweet, it wont be this. If you want something crunchy, well here it is.Pros:34g/serving is a good amount compared to other brands I researched with similar but still higher calories/carbs/sugarsThe crunch holds up against my yogurt really well - even if/when its in smaller pieces. Its satisfying for me to have that crunch factor despite having sat in a yogurt bath for 5-10 before I can eat it.The flavor is mild (not much vanilla flavor). Some of the ingredients like pea protein and monk fruit may not be flavors people like, but I don't notice it much when its all mixed in my fruit and yogurt.Cons:Price is high - 15ish servings per bag... equals out to about $1/serving... steep if your used to the usual stuff you can get at the storePackaging isn't the greatest... either I am hulk or the zipper seals must not like me very much because I am now on my 3rd bag and the seal has separated from 1 side on all bags. In addition, its mostly crumbled down into tiny single pieces - this isn't too much of a big deal for me since it all eats the same over yogurt and berries, it just does not look like it does in the picture on the bag.Overall - this meets my caloric/macro needs, tastes delicious and is a decent value for the money.

I did not like it on it's on however, tastes great mixed in with other things lol. My favorite is fairlife milk with half scoop of quest peanut butter protein powder with this stuff for a tasty snack of 50g of protein!And yes it is pricey unfortunately.

I think you must first get the notion of out your head of true oats and grains. We're also, controlled by excessive sugars in true granola, even Quaker Brand that misleads us into think the actual Quakers make the products.Well, trying to look past those biases, I was able to go thru a couple of bowls. CAUTION:The strength if the product does not soften in milk or even water. The firsts few tastes requires some palate adjustments, so give it a chance. After a few days, the after taste requires more brain reprogramming, and as I tell my kids you must taste and eat it to form a judgment.I'm a week into the product, but it is loosing my palate battle, but I realize it may win the war on carbs and sugars. But this is like the Battle of Bulge, there will be losses and the defense is strong. I will hold off, on saying this healthier product will win, but I wont give up on the US troops in the foxhole being shelled nightly, in freezing, cold with battle buddies dieing around me, before I allow the taste to overrun the healthier choice.

I am a weird one, I don't like wet cereal, I eat all cereal dry, this I eat the larger pieces as a trail mix thingy and the bottom of the bag gets like crumbs, so I add it to my yogurt, but I love it, the ingredients are good in my humble opinion, I look for soy free, erythritol free, low sat fat, low cholesterol...I also like low carb and high protein...thanks Julian Bakery for leaving the recipe the same too ;-)

The taste just isn’t good. I had purchased this several years ago and loved it. I’m. It sure what has changed but it’s just not good!!

This granola is a life saver and has been a massive help in my goal to increase protein and lose weight. I love the macros, you cannot beat them! To get 12 grams of protein from only 87 calories is amazing. I love cereal so a cup of this (or the peanut butter flavor which is awesome) with milk is a meal that I enjoy and fills me up for hours.Some people may be trying to compare it to regular granola which has two or even three times the amount of calories and only a small fraction of the protein. This is not fattening sugar-filled granola. It’s actually healthy for you.
