Lena Loves… Kashi Honey Sunshine

By

Great news! If you read my review earlier this week, you’ll know that I LOVE the New Kashi Honey Sunshine. And now you can win some fabulous Kashi goodies too! Simply read on and enter to win!

As I disclosed last month, I’ve been trying my best to make wiser meal choices. By swapping white bread for whole grains, cutting the amount of saturated fat in my diet and going easy on sugar-laden drinks, I’m taking small steps to improve my overall health and the health of my family.

Kashi cereals have long been considered a exemplary way to start your day; with seven whole grains and just the right amount of sweetness, they come with real goodness that you can see (and taste). So I was exceptionally pleased to try their new Honey Sunshine Cereal –

Wake up to tasty goodness with a new cereal, Kashi Honey Sunshine! These bite-size, puffy delights are loved by both parents and children and baked so they are toasty and golden with a burst of happiness in every bite. Sure to brighten your whole family’s day this cereal is full of wholesome ingredients including Kashi’s heritage Seven Whole Grains and a sweet honey flavour that will make you smile. The wholesome ingredients and fantastic taste make Kashi Honey Sunshine a staple in every family’s kitchen to lead a bright and healthy life.

I’ll be honest; while I like Kashi cereals, I normally don’t love them (put it this way – they likely wouldn’t be my last meal). But what I trade off in sugary goodness I usually gain in nutrition, so I’ve been enjoying the products with the mindset that I “should” eat them. Until I tried Honey Sunshine.

I LOVE this cereal! With my very first bite, my eyes lit up – a puffy, crunchy delight with just the right amount of sweetness (thanks to an authentic honey flavour, not a blast of over-processed corn syrup). I daresay the cereal resembled a healthy version a popular children’s cereal – and I’m not alone in my diagnosis – just check out the comments and reviews.

I’m also quite pleased that the whole family can enjoy this cereal – Ryder loves snacking on the puffs mid-morning, and I am reassured by the fact that it contains 6g of sugar per serving – well below the average sweet breakfast concoction.

Each serving of Kashi Honey Sunshine cereal is packed with:

High Fiber ~ 6g of Fiber from a combination of whole grains
Whole Grains ~ 20g of whole grain, over 1/3 of your daily needs
All Natural ~ No artificial sweeteners, flavors or preservatives

If you’re a former sugar-junkie, love healthy living or just in the mood for an all-round delicious cereal, I wholeheartedly recommend Kashi Honey Sunshine. These honey-kissed seven whole grain cereal pillows are a sunny way to start your day!

You also MUST try Kashi’s Dark Mocha Almond Granola Bars: A chewy granola bar that is made with dark chocolate chips and crunchy roasted almonds, and has a delicious mocha taste. Made with all-natural ingredients, each 35 g bar contains 7 whole grains and provides 4 g of fibre.

Yum! Is there a better combination than chocolate and almonds? (I know, I know – chocolate… and anything!) The bars are chewy and have just the right amount of sweetness; an awesome mid-afternoon snack.

    I faithfully have a trail mix bar every Saturday at my orchestra break. It gives me the fuel to get through the rest of my practice.

    As many have mentioned already – I love, love, love the Cherry Dark Chocolate chewy granola bars – my fave. I'm looking forward to trying out the new cereal though.

    I am already a Kashi lover. My favourite product is the 7 Whole Grain Honey Puffed cereal. It is great at breakfast and as a bedtime snack. They have incredible products. Our dog is diabetic, so he is a Kashi lover too!Thanks for offering this contest.
