    Really, all those high level of carbs and sugar packed in that cereal? I wonder why it would give someone gas....shocker.

    Kashi gave me the worst non-illness stomach cramps I've ever had. It just tore me up, and I usually have over 40 grams of fiber a day, so it wasn't because of not being used to fiber. I just stick to shredded wheat or oatmeal now.

    YES! It's so delicious but I just can't eat it. The pain is so bad. :(

    Edited to say that my breakfast is usually one of these and I have no stomach issues with them:

    oatmeal with raisins, cinnamon, and stevia
    english muffin with PB
    egg sandwich made with 1 egg and 1 egg white and a slice of american cheese on an english muffin

    I sprinkle kashi go lean crunch on my plain greek yogurt almost every day for breakfast. Have never had an issue.

    It's the chicory root/inulin. That stuff is evil.

    ^ This! ^

    Not all Kashi .....not all Fiber One has inulin (or chikory root). Read labels......this form of fiber is notorious for "stomach" issues.
