At Kashi, we believe you are what you eat. We also believe you are more than that. So we created Kashi U™ cereal to promote the vitality of life. And in life, everything is interconnected. Just as your systems work together, your body works with other bodies. And everybody unites to build our world.

Representing the unity within your body, we created Kashi U™ cereal to promote the vitality of five body systems: Heart, Immunity, Bone, Digestion & Mind.

The tasty combination of toasted Seven Whole Grain flakes, tangy black currants, crunchy walnuts, and acai oat clusters is packed full of nutrition:

Cardio Nourishment – 350mg ALA omega 3 from walnuts and 100% of vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid
Immunity Boost – 50% of your daily value for vitamins A, C and E as well as zinc and antioxidant super fruits black currant and acai
Strengthen Support – More calcium & vitamin D than half a glass of milk* plus zinc to support bone health
Thrive Inside – 7g of fiber and prebiotics to help the good bacteria grow
Mental Sustenance – Over half of the daily recommended amount of whole grains

We believe that everything we do can make a difference and that every step counts. So the Kashi U box is printed with compostable, soy-based inks, is 100% recycled and contains 80% post-consumer recycled content, and is printed by a company that offsets its electricity use with clean wind power.

True vitality emanates from you through the choices you make – from choosing a cleaner energy source and recycling, to the food you eat – and all of this helps you live your best life. We hope we made this an easy and delicious choice for you!

* Kashi U cereal provides 25% DV of vitamin D and 20% DV of calcium per 55 gram serving. One-half cup milk contains 15% DV of calcium and 12.5% DV of vitamin D.

Tried the walnut and current cereal-great taste and texture, and really got my slow digestive system going!

I liked the cereal and nuts but the berries were way too sour. Even my daughter who loves sour foods thought that they were too sour.

this is pretty darn good! nothing out there tastes quite like it. i can see how some would think the currants are a bit sour, but i think it’s needed to balance out the taste of the walnuts.

I have tried many of your products and I can’t think of a one that I don’t like. I now like your product even more. There sitting so unassuming in the cereal isle was your U cereal in the lovely recycled box. I grabbed that box over all of the colorful, snazzy boxes, to include your other products, and took it home. Not only have you done what I have always wanted-basic recycled packaging-but the cereal was wonderful. THANKS…..

I…LOVE…THIS…CEREAL. But it’s hard to find. I can only find it at Wal-Mart, ironically enough, so I buy it 3 boxes at a time :-)

I have fallen in love with this cereal. It was so nice to take a bite and get a big chunk of walnut – I called up my mom immediately and told her she had to buy the cereal!!!! I too picked it up because of the basic recycled box – and am I glad I did!

I am losing weight (37lbs so far) and Kashi is a big part of my daily diet. I like to eat a non-fat yogurt with granola added every morning. I haven’t used granola since I found this lovely recycled box in the cereal isle. I mix 1/2 cup of cereal with vanilla yogurt for a perfect on-the-go breakfast. The flakes stay crunch til the end, the currants soften and the overall flavor is delicious. The perfect diet, healthy breakfast!

I recently noticed this on the shelf in the health foods section on my local supermarket. Trusting the Kashi name, I gave it a try. I AM TOTALLY HOOKED. The combination of the walnuts and currants is great. Because I love fresh fruit in my cereal, I also toss in a handful of fresh raspberries and pomegranate. Makes for a great morning start!!!!

My husband and I just tried this cereal and really enjoyed it. We were pleasantly surprised when we found that it has real currants in it not the mini raisins one usually finds when currants are listed as an ingredient. This is now amongst our favorites.
