Pros: Taste, texture, carb count,
Cons: none

The cinnamon Nutragous is my absolute favorite, I go through 1-2 bags a week. The worst part is trying to get my kids to stop eating it !!
The best low carb product I found.

Pros: Great flavor, great crunch
Cons: Malitol "issues", maybe a little *too* sweet?, easy to overeat it, very expensive!

When I first picked this up a few weeks ago I was overjoyed with the great taste and great crunch of this granola. The pack contains six servings (each: 1/2 cup, 210 cals, 16g fat, 5g protein, 15g carbs -4g fiber -10g sugar alcohol) -- It's great to have a high-fat snack that is truly crunchy! It's easy to eat more than a 1/2 cup serving, so watch out, and the malitol effects can be intense, so in that way it's self-limiting. I have liked both flavors I have tried, the cinnamon and the dried cherry. The flavor is very sweet, though, so if you don't like very sweet treats this may not be for you.


This granola is definitely one of the best LC snack/treats I have found yet.

Pros: Delicious, convenient snack or cereal
Cons: laxative effect if you eat too much

I first tried the Wild Cherry Nutrageous. Wow! I couldn't believe this was LOW CARB!! I would highly recommend this snack/cereal. Word to the wise: Eat in moderation. It's hard to put it down. Sugar alcohols make for a laxative effect.

Pros: excellent taste, crunchy, sweet, addicting!
Cons: a little expensive because you can't put the bag down!

I would recommend this to anyone! My husband was leary of the low-carb lifestyle, but he is now excited because of this product. We tried the cherry and the cinnamon. We love them both.

Pros: Taste, texture
Cons: Expensive

I've tried both the cherry and the cinnamon versions and both are very tasty and have good texture. Not quite as crunchy as typical granola, but a lot crunchier than the standard low-carb breakfast - EGGS!


I am able to get three servings per bag which equates to about $3.50 per bowl (incl. shipping/handling charges.

Pros: Taste, texture
Cons: Price

I tried the Cinnamon Nutrageous. Fantastic flavor and crunchiness. Definitely my favorite low-carb snack so far. I'm looking forward to trying the cherry one. The downside is the price. The price is the only thing that prevented me from giving this product a perfect 10. This is VERY expensive for a bag this size. I'm hoping that eventually the price will come down a bit on some of these low-carb products. My grocery bill is ridiculous!

Pros: taste and crunch is great!
Cons: major stomache troubles from the maltitol...

Oh how I wanted to love this product, and I did, until I realized it made me so sick to my stomache w/in 30 mins of eating it. I gave it 4 tries and even ate it in a variety of ways: out of the bag as a snack, on top of cereal/yogurt, etc... I finally deduced the last time when I had my head in the toilet (I was so sick from it), that is surely must be this granola.
What's strange is that I eat bars w/ maltitol just fine, but for some reason this cereal just won't agree with me.
It was at my Kroger, btw...which was handy.

Pros: taste
Cons: very expensive, made me burp

One of the things I miss most on this
WOE is my breakfast cereal. I have tried the Cinnamon and the Cranberry flavors of this and both are similar to granola in texture and taste. I liked the cinnamon flavor better than the cranberry only for the fact that the cranberries are dried and bitter tasting to me. I simply put a serving in a bowl, and add a small amount of cream, and eat it like cereal. For a bit of extra sweetness, you can sprinkle a little sweetner on it (I used a half packet of sweet n low). I couldn't give this product a score of 10 because of the outrageous price for such a small bag, and also because after I ate it, I noticed that I continued to burp up the flavor of the granola all morning long. I thought at first it might have just been me, but after I tried it again a few days later, it did the same thing, so there's definitely some ingredient in there that causes some amount of gas.

I've tried the cinamon and the cherry and they are so good! A great crunchy snack. They are sweet though.

Pros: so nice to have cereal for breakfast

I was really happy with the taste, this is the only low carb cereal that I have found that tastes good enough to keep going back for more.

Pros: crunchy, sweet and low, low, low in carbs
Cons: price

love this stuff... love it, love it, love it.
Even my boyfriend seeks this out of the cupboard to eat on top of his yogurt.
Slight maltitol effect if eaten in excess, but it's pretty sweet so excess isn't much of a problem.

Pros: Everything, it's outstanding
Cons: Price

The only reason this didn't get a 10 was due to the price. The taste is amazing. I only buy it every so often due to the cost, but I reeeally love it.
It's great on ice cream too.

Pros: AWESOME TASTE AND TEXTURE!
Cons: Price

Great! I just have to control the amount that I eat! I ended up in an emergency bathroom situation that was so difficult! If I didnt make it to the bathroom in time, it would have been disasterous!
