Julian Bakery® ProGranola® Cereal | Vegan | Vanilla Cluster (2)

I love that this is low carb and that there's no added sugar. That said I've tried this a couple of different ways. Mixed in Greek yogurt the larger clusters are quite hard and for some might be too crunchy. Also tried this in cashew milk - within a couple of minutes the clusters were soft enough to chew and the milk had a nice flavor. That might be my preference for eating it. It's definitely not as sweet as your average regular granola but I think that's a good thing.

After hours and hours of research to find a low calorie, low carb, low sugar granola, I have finally found THE ONE. If you are looking for something sweet, it wont be this. If you want something crunchy, well here it is. Pros: 34g/serving is a good amount compared to other brands I researched with similar but still higher calories/carbs/sugars The crunch holds up against my yogurt really well - even if/when its in smaller pieces. Its satisfying for me to have that crunch factor despite having sat in a yogurt bath for 5-10 before I can eat it. The flavor is mild (not much vanilla flavor). Some of the ingredients like pea protein and monk fruit may not be flavors people like, but I don't notice it much when its all mixed in my fruit and yogurt. Cons: Price is high - 15ish servings per bag... equals out to about $1/serving... steep if your used to the usual stuff you can get at the store Packaging isn't the greatest... either I am hulk or the zipper seals must not like me very much because I am now on my 3rd bag and the seal has separated from 1 side on all bags. In addition, its mostly crumbled down into tiny single pieces - this isn't too much of a big deal for me since it all eats the same over yogurt and berries, it just does not look like it does in the picture on the bag. Overall - this meets my caloric/macro needs, tastes delicious and is a decent value for the money.

I have to say that this has been one of the most robust culinary failures my taste buds had to endure in their life time of service. No matter what I used: milk, soy, coconut milk, heck even Acai and Orange juice, no matter how many accoutrements: fresh fruit, dried fruit, special brownie, it always and consistently tasted like flavoured saw dust. I guess its resistance to become palatable, no matter what, is one of its redeeming features. There is your 1 star for consistency. In a double blind taste test, test subjects were blind folded (now a tripple blind test) and presented with a bowl of fresh redwood saw dust and a bowl of this cereal. The test results revealed that all test subjects preferred BBQ pulled pork over any of the test flavours presented. Unfortunately this granola is so flavourless , even our chickens were like "Yeah, no" Now it is in a compost pile, I just hope the microbes and nematodes don't have taste buds, other wise I might find them going on strike.

I think you must first get the notion of out your head of true oats and grains. We're also, controlled by excessive sugars in true granola, even Quaker Brand that misleads us into think the actual Quakers make the products. Well, trying to look past those biases, I was able to go thru a couple of bowls. CAUTION:The strength if the product does not soften in milk or even water. The firsts few tastes requires some palate adjustments, so give it a chance. After a few days, the after taste requires more brain reprogramming, and as I tell my kids you must taste and eat it to form a judgment. I'm a week into the product, but it is loosing my palate battle, but I realize it may win the war on carbs and sugars. But this is like the Battle of Bulge, there will be losses and the defense is strong. I will hold off, on saying this healthier product will win, but I wont give up on the US troops in the foxhole being shelled nightly, in freezing, cold with battle buddies dieing around me, before I allow the taste to overrun the healthier choice.

I like the product overall but they should have a better packaging system. It’s supposed to be granola cluster but most of it was tiny crumbles most likely due to poor protection for packaging. If you’re used to healthy foods you’ll like it. People who don’t eat super clean think it has a weird aftertaste, I personally don’t taste it. It’s good just needs better packaging! Hope they take this in consideration because it’s PRICEY and I was disappointed when I opened the bag :(

This stuff is delicious, crunchy and healthy. Perfect for yogurt, or eat as a cereal with almond milk. Low fat, low carb, low calorie and delicious. A bit on the pricey side, but I think worth it.

I’m a bit surprised about all of the bad reviews here. I’ve tried so many different kinds of low-carb, low sugar granola, and this is the only one I like (specifically this vanilla flavor). I mix it with no sugar added dried fruit (cherries, blueberries, cranberries) and put it on top of plain Greek yogurt with ChocZero honey and CocoWhip and it’s my favorite breakfast. That said, I don’t think I would enjoy it plain with only milk. It’s really good crumbled up mixed with the dried fruit and it lasts me a really long time that way.

I like the fact that it's made with pea protein instead if soy. That said, it has both Stevia AND Monk Fruit Extract, either one of those would have been fine as each of these sugar alternatives are 1000 times sweeter than equal amounts of cane sugar. The two combined however make this nauseatingly sweet and therefore inedible. Was very disappointing.
