    Been eating this for a while, really like it but broke a tooth today. I think some of the pieces in this cereal are just “too hard” in my opinion.

    So, I tried this cereal a few years back and broke a tooth, lucky that it didn’t cost me anything to fix… I love the taste, and this week I picked up a box to try again..the 2nd bowl I had, cracked my tooth in half…I mean really? Now I found out it’s gonna cost $500 to fix at the dentist…I’m sorry taste is great but this just cost me way to much money.. Love the company and the food, but they just lost me as a client..$500 for a box of cereal…not good!

    I love the taste of this cereal and it really fills me up in the morning. However, I won’t buy this product anymore because it contains conventional (and therefore GMO) soy protein. I refuse to knowingly buy products containing genetically modified ingredients because of their negative effects on environmental, human, and societal health. Please start using either organic or nonGMO soy in this product so I can enjoy it again.

    Funny thing is I am just about done with a Detox Juice Diet. And was looking for a health cereal. Giant had the Kashi Go Lean Crunch on sale cheaper then anything else. It was a sign lol. I was concerned it was not healthy because it tasted so good. My new cereal of choice. Thank You for making it.

    BrokenTeeth commented on this. 5 months ago

    I have eaten GoLean Crunch for about 3 years. I really like the taste and I like eating high fiber foods. However, lately over the last 3 months or so, I have been occasionally finding very hard objects mixed in the cereal. Some of these have been hard balls (like small jawbreakers) made up of cereal cemented together by cane juice or the brown rice syrup, I’m not sure which. These balls of aggregated cereal (literally like jawbreaker candy) are extremely hard and I have had to pick them out of the cereal for fear of breaking a tooth. This last Sunday (Aug 27, 2011) I was eating a bowl of GoLean Crunch (as I do every day) and I bit down on something hard. I don’t know what it was. I wasn’t one of the cereal balls, but it was so hard that it shattered one of my molars. I have an appointment with a dentist for a root canal (about $1000) in order to correct the damage. I want to warn all GoLean Crunch consumers that this wasn’t an isolated case. As I said, I have run into several hard objects in the cereal in the last few months. These is something haywire with Kashi’s process control and quality checking. So if you are going to continue to eat GoLean Crunch chew very slowly or you may run into something very hard that will break a tooth!
    Wish I didn’t have to post this comment, but I feel compelled to warn the rest of you that visit this site.

    I voted that I didn’t like it. Great taste and texture BUT . . . I can eat pretty much anything however this cereal gives me horrible, putrid gas and too many visits to the bathroom. I really don’t know what it is unless I’m sensitive to one of the grains or something I don’t know about.

    this cereal is the ONLY breakfast that keeps me full until lunch and usually beyond.

    i just started having 3/4 bowl of goLEANcrunch with a 1/3 banana…handful of blueberries and a couple strawberries. with a 1/2 cup of vanilla silk.

    i feel really good about what i am putting in my body and am thrilled to finally find a a breakfast that doesn’t find me scrounging for a mid morning snack! {and tastes FANTASTIC}

    thank you kashi!

    This is a great multipurpose cereal. I find it too sweet for just a morning bowl, but I mix it in with the Kashi honey-toasted Heart-to-Heart, combine it with a good yogurt, or grind it up and eat it as sort of a crumble on fruit.

    Was looking for a natural food to use in long distance running recovery (4:1 carb:pro balance) that I could keep in my car without spoiling. I hardly ever eat processed/boxed food, but I saw this at the Costco and all the ingredients are ‘normal’ food that I recognize/comprehend, i.e., not a box of chemicals. The sugars (cane and rice) are pretty low on the list, assuming that means they’re not major ingredients. Will be trying it tonight!

    Very very very very tasty. My only problem is there is a lot of sugar:/. At least it’s not fake sugar like in most general cereals! But there’s still enough to concern me. Also I wish it were lower in calories. But nonetheless, this cereal was a great healthy snack that didn’t make me feel TOO guilty for having it!

    I thought I had found the perfect cereal. The taste was great and it was healthy.
    But it gave me GAS and bloating from out of this world. It took me a while to figure out what was causing the gas, so I stopped eating the cereal and within a couple of days it stopped. I have stopped eating the Kashi cereals and went back to my General Mills brands. No Kashi for me.

    I LOVE this cereal. I eat it as a snack, ontop of low fat yogurt, and as-is if I don’t have time to make a proper breakfast. (Egg whites/fruit etc)
    But recently when I’ve been buying this product, 1/3 of the box is fine powder, and not the clusters I love so much.
    Common Kashi, keep up the quality control. Been disappointed with the contents of the past 3 boxes of your product :(

    This is good stuff. Even better when you top it with Silk Very Vanilla soy milk.

    I alternate between this and Berry Crumble with my Light’n’Fit yogurt every morning. Guess what- I’ve lost 30+ pounds, added years to my life, and figured out my digestive system. Do yourself a favor and pour yourself a bowl of this, but skip the milk. Not only is the texture cra-mazing, but it will literally change your lifestyle. You will have no choice but to start working out, plus your teeth will somehow straighten up and become perfectly white. I know this sounds sarcastic, but it is not. You will finish that book you started writing, ask out that girl from Accounting, buy that BMW, and climb that Mount-whatever-it-is in your local state park. I love you Kashi- my parental divorce is final and you are my new Dad.

    I love this cereal. Also, concerning the gas-related complaints for Go-Lean Crunch: I eat a lot of fiber every day, but if I don’t eat Go-Lean Crunch, I have really bad gas. Once my body got used to a healthier level of fiber, I needed (and still need) to maintain that amount of fiber to stay gas-free. This cereal makes it easier for me to do that. Go Kashi!!

    evaporated cane juice crystals? you mean sugar? come on that’s deceptive!

    1. 48_kashilogo
      Kashi Customer Service Team about 1 year ago

      Hi Jillruge. By no means do we want to deceive our natural food lovers! Refined sugar, often referred to as “white sugar,” is subjected to several chemical processes before the final bleached product is attained. On the other hand, evaporated cane juice which is crystallized juice from the first pressing of the sugar cane, is minimally processed, unbleached, and is produced without using chemicals. Unlike white refined sugar, evaporated cane juice also retains some of the nutrients, which are lost during the refining of white sugar. As a result, evaporated cane juice has its own unique and delicious flavor. By choosing to use evaporated cane juice as an alternative, we are able to provide you with a more natural food. We hope this explanation helps. Thanks for posting.

    I travel 4-5 days a week for work. I don’t normally eat cereal. The Hotel I stay at serves Kashi products. I skipped the cereal for several months as it did not appeal to me. One morning, that was all there was to offer, so I ate it. What a pleasant surprise! I have been eating Kashi Go Lean for several months now. I missed it so much for my weekends home, that I bought my first box this weekend! Yummy! Who would have thought?? Looking forward to branching out to other Kashi products!

    I was so excited to find this cereal, reasonable sugar level, high protein, high fiber – was looking good.

    By day 2 I realized this was a great tasting treat but needed to be renamed GO FART for HOURS. I thought I had a major stomach and intestinal bug. I have never been more prolific in producing GAS!. I couldn’t believe it would be a Kashi cereal that caused it so I gave it another try. My family nearly killed me. My GI tract was producing huge AIR and it hurt. Sorry for being vulgar but if you had a similar reaaction you know what I mean. HOLY smokes this stuff is a WMD. My daughter ate a huge bowl before a big playoff game in high school and couldn’t really even move to play – similar stomach/GI cramping. Just google go lean crunch gas and you will find tons of posts to others that have has similar “problems”. This stuff should be registered with the EPA and should have a surgeon general’s warning on it. Love the taste can’t ever eat it again. I presume it is the LOAD SOY PROTEIN in the cereal that is so volatile in so many people.

      It’s not the soy protein; it’s the chicory root fiber. I have a similar reaction—very painful bloating/gas. Look up chicory and its effects, and you’ll find it’s a laxative. It’s in most dairy-free ice “creams” too.
