'Simple, Honest, Goodness'

"In a complicated world it's great to know there's something simple. Shredded Wheat is made from just one ingredient - Whole Grain Wheat. Nothing more. Nothing extra. No added anything! So you know you're getting a cereal that helps you care for your body and your heart.* Looking after yourself for the future couldn't be easier. People with healthy hearts tend to eat more whole grain foods as part of a low fat diet and healthy lifestyle".


Shredded wheat is a hugely popular breakfast cereal. It's one of the standard British breakfast foods along with Weetabix, Shreddies, Corn flakes and Frosties. We really do have a great selection to choose from when we enter a Supermarket. The displays are full of all kinds of Cereals that promise this and that to us. I would say that Shredded Wheat is possibly one of my favourites when deciding which one to choose. The experts recommend that we eat at least 48g of wholegrain per day to supply our bodies with the correct amounts. So by eating the package with the 2 Shredded Wheat in, we are giving our bodies the correct wholegrain GDA amount.


Whole grains are very important to our health and Shredded Wheat provides this in these tasty fun cereal blocks. It's a bit like eating straw with Shredded Wheat and that is the aspect that I find fun with this food. 'Shredded Wheat has been around for over 100 years, and is still made from just 100% wholegrain wheat'. The texture of it is great and I find the eating of it very satisfying. I find it a good start to the day and if I'm not having toast and fruit I will quite happily eat this on its own with milk as a good sustainer until lunchtime.

The product is housed in the unmistakeable sunny yellow tall box with the Shredded Wheat written inside a large heart. My size has 16 'biscuits', as Nestles call them, wrapped in twos which is a very good idea for keeping the product nice and fresh and this portion of two will deliver 100% of your daily wholegrain. Two biscuits equate to 217 calories and the packet bears the stamp of the British Red Tractor and meets the standards that the Shredded Wheat is sourced from British Farms and meets the 'Assured Foods Standards' also.

-0- SUMMARY -0-

Shredded Wheat is a great breakfast food. It is fun to eat and I like the way that the 'biscuits' are shaped and seamed. It makes the eating of this breakfast cereal fun as well as satisfying and they certainly do fill you up well. Shredded Wheat is completely natural in substance and you can taste this goodness as you are eating them. No added sugar or salt or preservatives, just 100% good British Wheat. If this large size is too big for you, they also come in the convenient 'Bite Size' also.-


The 16 biscuit size of Shredded Wheat is £1.47 and the 30 biscuit size is £2.16 from Tesco. -
