    Always cheaper to make your own - that cereal is about $10 for a pouch where I am!

    I have never heard of Holy Crap cereal... I'm a cereal addict on a grain free program, so this sounds right up my ally!!! Does it taste ok?

    Yes, it does taste good. Mostly the taste comes from the cinnamon. You can add some berries or banana or apple to it as well.

    I started losing serious weight shortly after I started eating Holy Crap. Likely correlation rather than causation. I have it with yogurt. It would be great with dried fruit too.
