Reviewer: Betsy in North Carolina |
| I ordered, first time, a few months back -apple cinnamon and sweet maple flavors- and let them sit in the pantry for a long time. When I finally "got up for trying it", I wanted it every day! Delicious as is!!! But for extra nutrition or flavor variety, I add only ~1/3 cup water max, and supplement with cream, half&half, &/or one of about 10 DiVinci sugar-free syrups (ie banana, pancake syrup) I keep on hand. EXTRA YUM! ...Or I add a few crushed, fresh berries (great use for fruit at the "past prime" stage), &/or extra cinnamon, or broken pecans. ...But, again, these two flavors at least, are delicious as is! |

| I just had some Dixie diner hot sweet maple cereal this morning. I added stevia and a little sugar free maple syrup
and fat free promise margarine. It was excellent. My first time to eat it and I loved it. |

Reviewer: Susan in Texas |
| I really like this cereal. I have tried the natural flavor, and I use different spices and flavored syrups to make whatever flavor I am craving at the time. My current favorite combination is SF vanilla syrup, cinnamon, and half of a mashed ripe banana. I add a little butter spray and cream, and I love it! I am going to try some other flavors as well. |

Reviewer: Greta in Wisconsin |
| I bought this item to try and I have to say I love it! I ordered Sweet maple and apple cinnamon. I like them both, but maple is my favorite. I just ordered more. I add a little butter and one packet of splenda. I would recommend this to oatmeal lovers. |

Reviewer: Kristine in Florida |
| Excellent cereal with great flavor. I've just reordered. Does not taste "fake" or like cardboard. I'm doing Atkins and this is a fabulous addition to my limited diet. If it's not sweet enough for you, just add half a packet of Splenda. |

Reviewer: Janice in Massachusetts |
| I love this hot cereal. Flavor (Sweet Maple) is quite tasty, and I usually only add a little bit of half-n-half and it's all set. Keeps my hunger at bay until lunchtime! |

Reviewer: Jerry in Minnesota |
| I add a TBS of butter,Splenda,heavy whipping cream and tsp
(little less than) of cinnamon to original directions and
come up with a hot cereal that I can't seem to get enough of. Keep in mind total carbs in how often you enjoy it and
your total carb intake. So far I have only done this to the
sweet maple |

| Great alternative to standard oatmeal you find at the grocery store. The consistency is different but plausible, and nonetheless this is a great Low carb alternative for a healthy Type 2 Diabetic lifestyle. I use water in place of milk and often add crushed walnuts as a topping (~1/4 cup). |

| I was pleasantly surprised that this hot cereal tasted so good and not to mention it's also full of good nutrients... It's the best tasting I have tried. Great aroma and texture...I added a little butter, Splenda and Almond Breeze Milk...I will definitely order again and try more flavors... |

Reviewer: Eileen in North Carolina |
| I've been low-carb for several years and one thing I really missed was a good warm cereal, along the lines of Cream of Wheat. I wish I had ordered this AGES ago! I ordered the Cinnamon Spice and Sweet Maple and could not be happier with them! They are warm and delicious without being too sweet and if you want it sweeter, a touch of sf maple syrup or sugar substitute is all you need. I like mixing a bit of the flax'n'snax cereal into this as well for a touch more flax, too, but not too much, or you lose the creamy texture. Since Atkins changed my regular breakfast cereal bars to a sweeter version, I may well switch over to having hot cereal every morning at work. :) Oh, I like making it with a bit of cream and butter in the water. |

| It is very filling and has a great flavor, you would never know that is not all oatmeal in that mix! The texture is very similar to oatmeal as well. Would recommend in a heartbeat, it's a great breakfast on a cold morning! |

Reviewer: Traci in Ohio |
| We love this cereal! My husband likes to add a little cinnamon to the Sweet Maple cereal and just a little sugar free maple syrup. We tried the other flavors but just keep coming back to the sweet maple flavor. I buy 10 boxes at a time! |

Reviewer: Kathleen in Connecticut |
| SO YUMMY! I feel like I am 5yrd when I am eating Dixie Hot Cereal. Seriously, it is so good. It is a quick fix to a late night or early morning meal when I am super busy and do not have time to prepare anything. I usually double up and it keeps me really full. |

| This is the best tasting low carb product I have found yet. It is very filling, and has no aftertaste!
I have mixed in the Jok n' Al Fruit toppings too for an extra treat! |

Reviewer: todd in New York |
| This cereal is a real treat to a person like myself who is on a low carb diet. Maybe it doesn't taste just like Cream of Wheat or Maypo but, to be as low carb and low calorie as it is, I say Great Job Dixie Diner! Add a little butter, Splenda and Nut Meal for an even bigger treat. |

Reviewer: Angela in Tennessee |
| This is a good break from turkey bacon and egg white low-carb/low-fat breakfasts, but the taste isn't the best. To be fair, I was really looking for something more like oatmeal, which is probably not realistic. That said, adding some cinnamon and stevia, this is a good breakfast that will keep you full. |

Reviewer: Kim in France |
| Nice product if you don't mind the soy bits texture, which could seem a bit weird to some, I don't mind. I add freshly ground cinnamon and some stevia to mine.
Small servings, but filling and low carb whilst being low cal, too (many LC products tend to be a bit high in cals), which is a big plus to me. |

| The "Sweet Maple" cereal is the best of the low-carb hot cereals I've tried. I've tried Peaches & Cream, Apple & Cinnamon, and Flax-Z-Snax. |

Reviewer: Amber in Texas |
| If you add extra cinnamon and sweetener, the flavor is Great! I just can't get past the odd texture. I love oatmeal/hot cereal, but this product just doesn't feel like oatmeal/hot cereal on the tongue. If texture isn't important to you, try it. If texture rules your taste preferences like mine, you probably won't like this. |

| I tried the peaches and cream, but didn't really notice the flavor of peach too much. The cereal itself was tasty but not quite what I was looking for. |

Reviewer: Kimberly in Illinois |
| I bought this because I miss oatmeal. I still do. The reviews were great, so I'm not sure if we got the same product. I dumped mine down the drain and I'll eat anything! I wouldn't have even described it as oatmeal. The consistency was much like muddy water with so little flavor it was shocking. Stick with the stuff in the store with high fiber and no added sugar. You'll be much happier! |

Reviewer: Jon in Ohio |
| I bought this because I love oatmeal and cream of wheat and as I am on a low carb diet I cannot have either. I tried the sweet maple flavor and it has a very strong soy flavor that is to me inedible. I will throw out the remaining packets and try something else. |

Reviewer: A customer in New York |
| I wish I could give this stuff 0 stars - it is NASTY. I read the positive reviews and I really wonder about them. Gross, watery, looks like sludge, tastes artificial and the consistency is nauseating. I have eaten McCann's in the past and it is fabulous. I know the nutritionals may not be as ideal as there but you couldn't pay me to eat another packet of this stuff. BEWARE! |

Reviewer: Sherrell in Maryland |
| I wish they had -0 as a rating on this product. I bought the Peaches and Cream and it was horrible! I normally can tolerate foods that aren't that good in taste, but this product here was just to hard to try and eat; I had to throw it away after trying to force down the 2nd spoonful.
DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS PRODUCT!!! |

Reviewer: dave in Iowa |
| Geez, who wrote they love this stuff? Most Dixie Diner products (especially the brownies) are quite good. But the apple cinnamon hot cereal is by far the worst. Bland, with a soy-papery consistency. I love oatmeal, maltomeal, and the rest. but if this is the substitute, then I'll continue to eat eggs, bacon, and low-carb waffles.... try again Dixie... |
