    I eat it as a treat. I make mine with 1% milk, to help save some calories as I love it with cinnamon & sugar sprinkled on top.

    LOVE Cream of Wheat! I make mine tons of different ways but my go-to is with a splash of flavored creamer (so many varieties!) and cinnamon sprinkled on top. Also, it's really yummy with a dallop of pumpkin puree, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Tastes just like pumpkin pie!

    Bacon bits sounds like it would be awesome in it. :)

    The way I always make it is to put 2 tsp of sugar and 1 Tbsp of butter. It's the way my mom made it when I was little. Started eating it again a few weeks ago

    I have a pack of cream of wheat, and 2 random packs of oatmeal for breakfast most workdays.
    Thickens it all up.

    TRY PUTTING SOME SIMPLY FRUIT IN IT. ITS A JELLY BUT COMES IN DIFFERENT FLAVORS. I LIKE IT.

    OMG, I LOVE Cream of Wheat, had it when I was a kid, up until I was diagnosed with Celiac... My fave was to make it with lo fat milk and a bit of Maple Syrup on it. YUM!!

    My dad used to make it for us when we were younger.. he'd always throw in raisins so that's usually what I do. I've tried it with brown sugar and maple syrup and I didn't care for either. Craisins would be good too or dried cherries.. pretty much any dried fruit I think would be great. Or milk and honey.

    Hmmm, haven't had cream of wheat in many years, might have to try it again. I eat oatmeal almost every day and add cottage cheese, fruit and nuts. Not sure if cottage cheese would be a good addition to cream of wheat??? Add it after cooking.
