Customer Rating: Summary: Honey Nut Cherios Comment: As always these are great, my mom loves them. This is a huge box, I cant even find them in the store in this size. Thank You. Customer Rating: Summary: Where Are the Nuts? Comment: Having enjoyed the wonderful flavor for breakfast for the first time in a very long time, I decided to do some research on whether there were nuts. (It has been a couple of years since I've eaten Honey Nut Cheerios, and I remembered nuts.)
According to an article I read at Wikipedia, General Mills introduced this delicious honey-and-nut flavored cereal in 1979 with almonds in it. The nuts, the article says, were discontinued in 2006.
Now, let's take a look at the nutrional value. Evidently we can expect the contents of this cereal to change periodically, because there is a statement to that effect on the Cheerios website.
More or less, a small serving (3/4 cup) has 110 calories. I don't usually want to stop at 3/4 cup of cereal. That little serving has 9 grams sugar and 290 mg sodium. It supplies 25% of a day's requirement of iron. How many of us need all that iron?
The good things included are 2 grams fiber and 50% of a day's requirement of folate, along with small amounts of vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, vitamin D, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, phosphorus, magnesium, and zinc.
Ingredients include whole grain oats, sugar, oat bran, modified corn starch, honey brown sugar syrup, salt, canola and/or rice bran oil, and natural almond flavor.
The box says that the product can help lower cholesterol and heart disease.
I hope you will find this review helpful.
Customer Rating: Summary: No nuts, thats silly. Comment: These have been a favorite for over 20 years, and to the best of my memories, it never has had nuts. Customer Rating: Summary: Doesn't contain nuts! Comment: Personally, I'm fed up with corporations and the incremental quality downgrading of their products. Honey NUT Cheerios no longer contains nuts.. after not eating this product for a few years, I picked up a box on sale from the local Slaveway, and immediately noticed it tasted wrong. After reading the ingredient list, I found the culprit-nut flavoring had been substituted for actual almond pieces. It's bad enough that the Cheerios themselves are but a shadow of the hearty cereal they once were, but this is insult upon injury-I won't purchase them again. They should rename them to Honey Nut Flavor Cheerios, BECAUSE NUTS ARE NO LONGER IN THE PRODUCT!
