I add 1/2 cup of this to my yogurt for some crunch, it is SOOOO tasty!! Love It :)

I have never farted so many times in one single day after eating a bowl of this cereal. If you don’t mind raunchy explosive, loud farting, pull up a chair and have a bowl. You’ll blow people away. Literally.

This cereal is outrageously delicious!!! I love it cold or I add it to my oatmeal. I was just experimenting and now I’m hooked!!! Went back to store to get more and couldn’t find it and; I joke not; almost cried.
I’m eating a Kashi pizza as I write this…yep I’M HOOKED ON KASHI!!! (can we say new slogan??)

This is my favorite Kashi cereal. I love it dry for a nice crunchy snack.

This is i great product if you have a lot of free time to spend on the toilet. It also gave me the walking farts for the beter portion of the day. After one bowl i realized that i would have to have teeth like a horse to to chomp this gravel down. On the positive side my colon is cleaner than a whistle!

Try this—I took half a cup of the Honey Almond Flax cereal and added it to Kashi’s Honey Cinnamon hot cereal after it was done. It was amazing! The hot oatmeal softened the super-crunchy cereal right up, and the two mixed deliciously. The resultant load of protein and fiber kept me full for five hours!

A serving of this has the same amount of sugar in it as a Krispy Kreme doughnut. I’d rather splurge and have the doughnut every once in a while than make this cereal a regular morning meal.

Really wish you would take out the chicory root extract :( My tummy can’t handle it, so I can only eat this cereal on Friday’s and Saturdays…

Just an FYI…If you have a Shop Rite near you, Kashi cereal is almost always on sale for $2.99 (15 oz) Thats the cheapest I’ve seen it compared to other grocery stores around my area. Not a bad price for a quality cereal but I agree with “furface” the boxes seem to go quick :(

LOVE this cereal!! the taste and textures are soo good. I eat it with rice milk and the honey flavor makes the last sip of milk heaven!

I love the taste, but I have to say. The packaging is a little skimpy. I got 2 bowls out of one box.

This is the only cold cereal I ever eat! It is super crunchy though, so I let it soak up the milk a bit before eating.

I eat 2 cups every morning and have no problems at all. It’s the beat cereal (honey flax) I have ever eaten. Love the crunch! Keeps me full until late afternoon.

i’ve never been a cereal eater but i love the taste of this one. however, like so many others, it gives me the worst gas and bloating, something that normally doesn’t happen to me. before someone says, “oh, you should drink more water.” or “you just need to exercise” please know that i work out for at least 1.5 hrs/each day (cardio, strength, yoga) and i drink water all day long, in fact it’s the only thing i drink besides the half a cup of vanilla soy milk that i use with the cereal in the morning and an occasional coffee. i too thought it would just take my body some time to get used to the fiber and flax, but i’m already going on 6 weeks and there hasn’t been a change in the amt or frequency of the gas and bloating.

When you have entire blogs and websites dedicated to how much GAS this cereal gives you, don’t you think you should re-think a few of your ingredients? Like maybe the chicory root fiber that is also found in FiberOne bars (a.k.a. FART BARS)?? I am NEVER buying this cereal again! Ruined 3 pairs of pants and a relationship!!!

This has become an after dinner snack for me instead of cookies.

Way better than the original. Taste good with a banana. With the added fruit taste just like banana nut bread in cereal form. Yum.

Right amount of crunch and flavor. Sometimes I do leave it in the milk for a min or two to soften it. I also love eating it hot. Thirty seconds in the microwave for a hot breakfast.

Because its scrumptditalyumptious! I just hope that someday it will come in snack sized bags like chips ;-) cause I tend to eat it without milk as a healthy snack!

My hands and feet swell after eating this cereal. Why?

This is the best Cereal I have ever had. I have been eating it most every morning for 6 months or so. I love the flavor and all the natural ingredients. I also love how it does not get all soggy like a lot of other cereals.

I went out and bought some Kashi because I heard some great things and I want to eat better so I got the honey flax and I didn’t like it at all I wanted the berry crumble but they were all out, the Honey Almond Flax kinda taste just like SMACKS from kellogs and they were really hard on my teeth even with the milk, I still want to try other kinds though!

this makes my morning wonderful! it doesn’t soak up all the milk like some cereals and it tastes great with soy milk :)

best tasting cereal of it’s kind I’ve ever had.

This is a great cereal, now both my wife and I are hooked on it!

I recently bought this cereal from Walmart because I wanted to try this cereal. It is DELICIOUS!! The only problem I have with the cereal is that there are less clusters and more crushed clusters in my box. I understand that this might be due to shipping but I enjoy the clusters when I can find them. :)

My husband and I both LOVE this cereal but we hardly ever eat it with milk because we like the clumps right out of the box! Anyway to make a “to go” package? :)

Thought this cereal was pretty good at first. A little crunchy but not too bad. Until I found a hair baked into the cereal.. DISGUSTING. Tried to call Kashi and waiting on the phone for about half an hour. I expect better from companies like this, safe to say I won’t ever be buying Kashi brands again.

This is one of my favorite cold cereals and I buy other Kashi products, also. I just wanted to point out that the ingredients for this particular cereal list whole flax seed……..I believe that flax seed is most beneficial to the body when taken in a ground or milled form. Including whole flax seed may make the fiber content of the cereal go up, but it is not as easily digested/used by the body (most of it will just pass through) in this form. Read labels and understand what you are eating! I will continue to eat Kashi products, but will be aware that the fiber content (as used by the body) is not really as it is stated.

Ok, maybe I should have taken a clue from “Honey” in the name, but seriously — it’s like eating carmel corn in a bowl for breakfast.

Do you have anything that isn’t soooo sweet? I feel like most of your cereals are too sweet for my taste.

I am upset with the Kashi brand. I recently decided to integrate Kashi cereal into my diet while prepping for a fitness competition due to the high protein content in the cereal. Becuase of this, I measure all of my food serving portions out each week. The box of Go Lean Crunch says that there are about 8 one cup servings in the box; however in both boxes I have purchased I have never been able to even get 6 full cups out the box. I thought the first box may have been a fluke but the second only affirmed my aggravation. If this were a $2 or $3 box of cereal I may not mind as much, but paying $5 or more per box only to be receiving 3/4 of the product is unacceptable. Most people probably would not notice this as they do not measure out their cereal portions; however, if you sold a box of Kashi bars and it said there were eight in the box and every time you opened it there were only six, I think people might notice.
Just saying…

I eat a bowl everyday. I’d swear with all the gas it produces I could power a generator and run my office all day! The answer to global warming! Now if I could only figure out a way to run a tube from my a…

This cereal tastes great, but unfortunately, it produces unbelievably debilitating gas! I already eat a high-fiber diet, and I have even stuck to Kashi Go-lean crunch for several months, thinking my digestive system would eventually get used to it. Not happening. I can’t believe this effect is just caused by the fiber. Kashi, there are websites out there that are entirely dedicated to discussing the intestinal distress that is caused by this cereal. Is there not some way to modify the formula to minimize this effect?

This is absolutely the best ceral I have ever tasted. Love it by itself, in milk, or as a topping on ice cream. Yummmmm.

I can’t have dairy milk and am not a fan of soy milk. So I use this with Activia Yogurt and fresh blueberries in the morning! Very good but too hard. I have to let it sit a moment or two to soften up.

I love this cereal. I don’t have any gas issues with it, but then I’ve been eating 20+ grams of fiber per day for quite some time now. I also find that if you pour a bowl w/milk and let it sit for about 5 minutes before eating it, it becomes much easier to chew in terms of the large crunchy clusters. Crushing some of the larger clusters prior to eating also helps. Either way, the taste and texture of this cereal is AWESOME!

The one and only reason I don’t like it is due to the debiliatating gas! I don’t mean a bit of gas, I mean unbearable pain and bloating. Have been enjoying Kashi products for years and I love the flavor, texture and benefits of the goodness and quality of the products. I beg you to find a way to fix the gas causing properties.
Respectfully, Jennifer

Chew carefully. I enjoy the cereal, and feel that the protein, fiber and omega-3 help me. But in the last couple boxes purchased, I’ve encountered chunks that go beyond crunchy to unyielding. I like to mindlessly eat my cereal in the morning as I catch up on email and the morning papers, but this forces me to focus on the cereal instead of the reading material. If this keeps happening I’ll have to move on to another cereal, which would be bad because this stuff seems just right for me. I don’t want to break a tooth or a crown.

@Kashi: I looked all over the box for something like a lot or serial number (no pun intended), but only found the UPS code on the bottom: 0-18627-74150-3. I saved a couple of the “stones” and can send them in if you want to try to correct this issue.

I ove this product yes it produces gas but you can prevent that by excersing. I hve this for breakfast an an evening snack an lost 6lbs in 5 days I feel great I will buy all the kashi products that I can for my family to enjoy

Yes! Thank you Dr. Dean. I do not know you, but started to get a degree after high school in public health education and realized I was learning nothing…my junior year, almost a 4.0, but nothing real to use. With the little nutrition I learned, knowing my mother, grandfather, sister all had to have their gallbladders removed, I restricted fat starting in the early ’80’s. As a resident director for 12 yrs, at a prep school, so much dining hall food served was high fat so as my family lived on this high school campus, I ate MANY baked potatoes for dinner with a vegetable, its juices, or just sour cream and seasoning. I have high cholesterol, but my GOOD is SO HIGH, it overcomes the bad…I just found out! I have been married 29 yrs and our 2 daughters inherited my husbands ‘hypophosphetemia’, and were two of the first to use the newly developed modality…in 1984. But, my health was NEEDED to get them through, unexpectedly, the 7 surgeries they have had in the past 9 years, with one to go yet, for Sarah. Unfortunately they adopted my husbands eating habits and not mine. And, my oldest, was kept under too long during her first surgery and now, even though an honor student, struggles to ‘think’ after her extensive surgery. She’s at A&M, finished 3 years and had a work accident, and waits and works until she can finish, as we are no longer able to help. I won’t go into that. BUT, DEAR PEOPLE realize that KASHI has a GREAT cereal (AND OTHER GREAT FOODS), that have REAL food value, GREAT taste! I am still struggling to get there, but not from lack of desire but due to 2 debilitating car accidents, that left me on full disability, with very little money.(In both I was at a full stop and was rear ended). BUT… REAL FOOD, SLEEP, and research might help me beat this. My relatives were Polish peanut/cotton farmers who ‘ate off the land’…and lived into their late eighties. DEAR PEOPLE, listen to this doctor…LISTEN! EAT to LIVE!!! Find ways to FIGHT back TO health, in the way this doctor describes…I fought to keep my gallbladder, and I have some of the greatest battles ahead, to RESTORE my overadrenalized body, now dysfunctional, but no one could predict the numbers of surgeries they needed or that almost 2 years ago, my husband would break his femur at work(and he has the same genetic problem). If you are YOUNG— LEARN now and DO IT. If you are beginning to get symptoms…FIGHT your cholesterol,as he recommends, and EAT healthy! THE market for healthy foods has expanded, so DO IT and LIVE! God bless. Pray for me, Will, and our girls…and think about this, especially if you are YOUNG——NOTHING HARD IS EVERY EASY!!! But it is so much more possible AND TASTY because of visionaries like the KASHI company. Thank you Dr. Dean AND KASHI.

Unfortunately, good eating produces gas. We are going to have to rethink everything we believe about nutrition and physiology. 30% of American children already have cholesterol levels considered too high!!! In the last 3 decades, obesity in American children from ages 5-11 has increased by 54%!!!! If you are serious about reducing cholesterol take a look at the “8 Week Cholesterol Cure” or Harriet Roth’s Cholesterol Control Cookbook. They recommend eating 2 specially prepared oatbran muffins every day. (Note: these are not store bought garbage, these are produced by the recipe in their book) Go ahead and try these, they are pretty harsh tasting and they produce enormous amonts of gas and their soluble fiber content is not as high as the Kashi Cereals. Soluble fiber is going to make you pass gas period. If you have not eaten a high fiber diet it will take a couple of weeks before everything settles down. The soluble fiber, with gel-like pectins and gum will trap bile acids, which are a precursor to liver cholesterol producion, in the gastrointestinal tract and cause them to be excreted from the colon. The net result is a large loss of cholesterol in your stool. This is a powerful weapon in your war against cholesterol. Some of these Kashi cereals provide 5g of soluble fiber per serving which is enormous. We are so worried about terrorists and yet we have an estimated 100,000 coronary premature deaths in the U.S. from just having hydrogenated vegetable oils to be allowed in our manufacturing process of our foods (Harvard School of Public Health). Wake up America! we are being killed by our food and Kashi is making a heroic effort to get you to eat differently and safely. Dean W. Larson, M.D.

I went through the sign-in process simply to say this… Kashi products result in terrible gas!!! Google it if you don’t believe me. I also found it amusing that as I was registering, the names “terrible” and “gas” were already taken! LOL It appears that I’m not alone… even on Kashi’s own website. I’ve never get bad gas, but Kashi changed that. I will return the boxes I bought and demand a refund on the opened box too. How ironic that a company which boasts natural goodness produced a product that made me feel ill and bloated. Thanks Kashi! I’ll be sure to avoid your products in the future. I hope this comment helps others avoid what I went through.

It gives me a ton of gas. A TON!!!

really sweet but godd i love it !
could munch on this alll day longg !

Yum! This was the first kashi product I’ve ever had. I love that its so crunchy! It’s like a crushed granola bar!

I love it! I can’t imagine eating it just as cereal but I love mixing it with my yogurt to replace highfat and sugar granola!

I love this cereal! It’s the best part of my morning! Keeps me feeling full longer :D

LOVE LOVE LOVE this cereal….my 2 year old daughter does as well

I bouth the CRUNCH! Honey almond flax and I dont like it at all! The clusters are waaaay too hard. In fact I pierced my cheek while eating some. :o( The flavor is nice but I think the “crunch” compares to the crunch you get from stale cereal. :o(

I eat it as granola in my yogurt for breakfast, DELISH!!
