It s far far far too sweet Why make a supposedly healthy cereal taste like this It s NEVER going to be a mass market product and you ll alienate anyone who s serious about fitness and healthy eating choices I don t get it I had to throw it away

Far too sweet but great customer service
After seeing lots of marketing for the cereal I believed in the ethos of the company and the nutritional values However once the order arrived the boxes are quite small - approx 8-10 small servings 6 large servings Me and my partner have a very sweet tooth but these tasted too chemically sweet The nutritional value comes from not the greatest protein source which is soya and the amount of artificial sweetness was off putting Really disappointed so we contacted Surreal and the customer service was great quick responses and offered us alternatives on what to do as we just couldn t eat 2 of the 4 boxes we ordered because of the sweetness Really wish them the best and hope other customers love it as much as the reviews do Unfortunately just not for us If there is ever an option to order again without as much stevia sweetener we would definitely buy

It is delicious but extremely expensive
It is delicious but extremely expensive for what it is Realistically as an adult one pack will give you 3 meals if you don t want to be hungry straight after eating They say a portion is 35g but honestly I don t know in which world they live in 35g probably if you are a 5 year old child

Artificial sweeteners
Like crunching through a mouthful of artificial sweetener tablets Horrible aftertaste Felt nauseous for hours afterwards Such a shame as they could have stuck to more natural wholesome ingredients

an awful fake sweet taste but crunchy and good macros
Great macros and crunchiness but truly awful taste of lingering artificial sweetness It s odd because Stevia and Erythritol can taste alright If they took all or virtually all the sweetness out I would buy again

Ridiculously sweet
I bought a box of the Cocoa flavour as I m watching my macros and this would fit in well for an afternoon snack Unfortunately they are just far too sweet for me and I won t be buying anymore I couldn t wait to finish the bowl so I could just drink the milk at the end to cut through the sweetness The texture is good I really like how they stay crunchy but it s a solid no from me on buying anymore Surreal products

Sadly not for us
I ordered this for a Christmas hamper thinking my son would love it but it wasn t for him I m sure this is personal taste only But we felt they were all very very sweet with too much taste and aftertaste of the sweetener used I didn t notice the difference with the different flavours and sadly we threw 4 half boxes away

Adverts suggest otherwise
Came really quickly boxes are really small I could get 3 bowls of cereal out of one box and I have 3 children so 3 days and they were done ordered 2 chocolate 1 banana and caramel caramel is more like a cinnamon flavour not caramel so was disappointed with that Banana and chocolate are ok but overall I d rather buy eggs for protein and save

Very expensive
While I admire the principle of providing a healthier cereal the current price on their website for 4 x boxes of their product retails for 24 00 plus postage at 2 99 On what planet is a small box of cereal worth 6 75 Perhaps I would have been more inclined to be a little more appreciative however while it may be healthier they are certainly not as supremely delicious as they seem to believe Not only that but the cereal itself is formed of extremely hard small cheerio style rings which actually hurt the inside of your mouth when eating them It really is the Toblerone of cereal Sorry but not for me
