| This cereal is excellent, and reminds us of Grapenuts. Very crunchy and it doesn't have an overpowering soy flavor as some other LC cereals do. We like ours with a little DaVinci S/F pancake syrup poured over the top. Gives it a maple/brown sugar flavor. |

| I love these! They really feel like I'm eating a bowl of my (much missed) beloved Grape Nuts. If you liked a strong crunch, like Grape Nuts, you'll be very pleased. Also wonderful heated up. Two thumbs up! |

| If you follow the Zone diet, all you need is 1/4 cup of these Nutlettes, as much milk as you want, 4 or 5 almonds (or equivalent for fat), and 1 oz of raisins OR about 3.5 oz of apple, pear, banana (13.5 grams). You can add more if you're using an orange or strawberries! I put a little water into the Nutlettes before I add the milk, because they are pretty crunchy and this softens them a bit. I also add some to soups or sauces if I want to bring up the protein level without adding a lot of carbs. |

| Ok, to piggyback on some of the negative reviews this cereal received, I find that it isn't the best tasting but I still gave it 5 stars. The absolute only con that I can come up with is the taste (definitely not the greatest). The fact that is stays crunchy is great! Also, the nutritional value and price per serving absolutely blows away any other cereal on the market!! You will not find any other cereal to contain this much protein and fiber with low sugar all in only a half cup! I really can't understand how some people have eaten this with water………………water is really disgusting in any cereal if you think about it. Also, if you're looking to remain low carb and want it to taste better, go pickup some Hood Chocolate Calorie Countdown milk. You can use half water and half of this milk and you'll be astonished at how much better it will taste. This milk is thick and sweetened with Splenda so adding a little water won’t make it gross in any way. You can always use it without the water as well! Just like most other health foods, you need to be creative and doctor them up in a smart calorie efficient way to make them more appealing. Hey, the way I look at it is that our health is extremely important and a cereal like this is priceless! Just like any other health foods, you need to be creative and doctor them up in a smart calorie efficient way. |

| I think it's too much water to add, so I add less. Reminds me of Grape Nuts. Very good. Hubby likes it too. |

| In attempting to lower my cholesterol naturally, without statins, I began using the "Cholesterol Down" program which requires 25g of soy each day. An easy way to get most of that is with 1/4 cup nutlettes cooked in with my steelcut oats each morning. I don't enjoy the nutlettes on their own, but they add a great consistency to my oats. My LDL cholesterol went down by 47 points too! |

July 18, 2008 Reviewer: Karen in Tennessee |
| This is a wonderful product! It tastes great on its own as a cold cereal with a taste similar to "grapenuts". But, you get much more protein and fiber and far fewer carbs.
I also mix it in with my other favorite cold cereals to boost the protein and fiber content. It's also good sprinkled on yogurt and fruit in place of granola, great taste without all the sugar.
I also sprinkle it on salads for a nutty crunch and a protein boost.
The single serving packets are great for traveling and the office!
It's hard to find a product that's wheat/gluten free, high protein, and high fiber, without added sugars, that actually tastes good! This is ONE! |

| An exceptional product. One ingredient (or two if you count traces of corn), high fiber, high protein, very palatable. Perfect replacement for less nutritious breakfast cereals, and doesn't feel like you're making any sacrifice at all. |

January 09, 2008 Reviewer: Jennifer in New York |
| FANTASTIC and totally satisfying! I can't believe I can have cold cereal again!!! I drizzle heavy cream over and add a small splash of H2O to it in place of milk. (50/50 ratio) Then drizzle with Walden Farms maple syrup! YUMMY!!! Also, adding cinnamon is a nice flair. Don't forget to sprinkle it in your Dannon LowCarb yogurts! One 1/2 cup serving is plenty to fill you up right! And so low carb!! |

| This cereal has a great taste and is convenient to use. I purchased the 6 serving package. I have just ordered the 18 serving box! I'd absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants and easy to eat, flavorful breakfast with loads of fibre. |

November 13, 2007 Reviewer: Arlene in Georgia |
| We love this product and eat it practically every day! It is not real tasty on its own, but we add oatmeal, or oat bran, ricotta cheese, milk, sweetener, wheat germ, flax seed, fruit, etc for breakfast. Where else can you get 25 gr. protein, and all that fiber?? We like it as a cold breakfast. I keep it in the pantry at all times, have never been able to find it at stores. We cannot do without this product! |

| We absolutely LOVE Nutlettes. Don't know why it got negative reviews. We eat it with blueberries and sweetened almond milk. I even like it with chocolate almond milk. It's yummy, just like grape nuts and it's a staple in our home!!! |

| This cereal is excellent mixed with Dannon Light & Fit Low Carb, Low Sugar yogurt. I have it for breakfast every morning and it really fills me up while giving me plenty of energy to start my day. I also like the Smaps for variety, but my favorite is the Nutlettes. |

| Other than the fact that this needs a bit of sweetener (a Splenda pack does the trick), this cereal offers the crunch that makes it very satisfying - not to mention the added benefits of protein and fiber! |

April 11, 2007 Reviewer: melissa in Texas |
| This stuff is wonderful! I mix a little Walden Farms Pancake Syrup & diluted almond milk over it. I let it sit for a few minutes to absorb the liquid a little. I like it a little softer than Grape Nuts. Or if I want a hot meal I warm it up & put a little Walden Farms Caramel Dip in it. I have even mixed it with Simply Fiber Unsweetened cereal for some extra volume and texture. My husband & I love it. |

November 06, 2007 Reviewer: A customer in Maryland |
| You can't find 2lbs of a all-soy, low-carb, high-fiber cereal for this price (6.99) anywhere else. If so...where? I ordered two the first time I ordered from Netrition.com and have no regrets. Tastes great hot or cold. Just add walnuts, Splenda and a little soy milk and you're good to go! It also keeps me full throughout the morning. Will order again. Thanks Netrition! |

September 24, 2008 Reviewer: Darryl in Utah |
| You get quite a bit for your money, but I think it's not very tasty. I eat it with lots of splenda to mask the taste. It does get rid of the cereal craving for a while though --mostly because it doesn't taste all that great and makes you not want cereal again for a while. |

May 08, 2008 Reviewer: Diana in Iowa |
| This stuff is great but you can use texturized vegetable protein (TVP) for almost the same taste. TVP is a bit crunchier and has 160 per 1/2 cup but it is almost the same. The Nutlettes is pretty good though and I would highly recommend it for somebody looking for low carb cereal. I don't personally recommend soy flour as non fermented soy and soy byproducts have been known to have very bad effects on the human body. |

January 30, 2007 Reviewer: Terry in Missouri |
| I tried the Nutlettes To Go. Awful! Mine were NOT crunchy, they didn't taste like Grape Nuts, actually pretty tasteless and more like the consistency of sawdust in soy milk. Perhaps the regular Nutlettes in the 2 lb box are different. I bought 2 packages of 6 envelopes each of the "To Go" version. I gave 9 of the 12 envelopes away. The 3 envelopes I did eat, I tried plain, with blueberries and even tried mixing them with Special K - High Protein. Nothing helped. If you buy them USE ICE WATER, my first try was water straight out of the tap... YUCK! Ice cold is better. Also, the individual envelopes have NO LABELS, in fact, no markings at all, so do not throw the master pack away. Especially, if you refer back to nutritional info, as I do. It would be easy to end up with a bunch of "mystery" envelopes in your cupboard. I buy lots of low carb and diabetic products from Netrition, their prices, products and speedy service have been great. This was my first dud. |

| I love Soy products, and I also love cereal. I really wanted to like Nutlettes. I tried it once, hated it, and put it in the cabinet. After a couple of weeks, I tried it again, and the whole box went into the garbage. I just can't hack the taste! If you are looking for a GREAT cereal, try the lo carb hot cereal by Dixie Diner..... It is AWESOME!!!! It tastes like oatmeal!!! |

| Absolutely dreadful, even with sweetener. Like eating cold, wet sawdust. Utterly flavorless, and the texture is reminiscent of finely chipped bark for mulching. |
