Fiber One Nutty Clusters & Almonds (Giveaway) http://www.afewfriesshort.com/fiber-one-nutty-clusters-almonds-giveaway/#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fiber-one-nutty-clusters-almonds-giveaway http://www.afewfriesshort.com/fiber-one-nutty-clusters-almonds-giveaway/#comments Sun, 12 Aug 2012 12:00:08 +0000 Toni-Lynn http://www.afewfriesshort.com/?p=1964

How do you pick what kind of cereal you buy each chopping trip? Do you tell the kids what they are going to eat or do you let them pick? I generally let them pick, but, it is from a selection. I refuse to let them just grab whatever they want. Biggest reason being the amount of sugar lot of the ones they want contain. I also think it is insane to pay $4+ for a box of cereal that lasts 2 days. I am picky about my cereal. I only eat mainly Cheerios, Chex etc.

Ready to go nuts over fiber? Introducing the newest flavor in the Fiber One cereal line-up, Fiber One Nutty Clusters & Almonds! With the perfect combination of crunch and sweetness, this new cereal is a great (and tasty!) way to help get fiber you need. It contains 11 grams of fiber (43% of the Daily Value), 23 grams of whole grain (at least 48 recommended daily), and 180 calories per serving. Not to mention, chock full of delicious crunchy nut clusters, real sliced almonds and whole grain flakes! Did you know that 9 out of 10 Americans don’t get enough fiber in their diet?

In a nutshell, Fiber One Nutty Clusters & Almonds is a great-tasting and wholesome breakfast cereal that you can feel good about.

Download a printable coupon for $1.25 off one box of Fiber One Nutty Clusters & Almonds cereal today! Much to my surprise, the boys ate it! I had to explain, no sneaking multiple bowl of this cereal! Have you tried it yet? What did you think?

    Kung Fu 2 Panda Prize Pack Review & Giveaway http://www.afewfriesshort.com/kung-fu-2-panda-review-giveaway/#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=kung-fu-2-panda-review-giveaway http://www.afewfriesshort.com/kung-fu-2-panda-review-giveaway/#comments Thu, 26 May 2011 12:00:35 +0000 Toni-Lynn http://www.afewfriesshort.com/?p=1197

    The boys are big fans of Kung Fu Panda. I love watching it with them just to listen to the amazing sound of their laughter. I of course sit there at certain parts and don’t have a clue what is so funny. I either lack the ability to think like 4 and 8 year old boys or I am just an uncool Mom. Yea, I am going with the first one as I am totally cool!

    This year, Kung Fu Panda is back! General Mills is teaming up with DreamWorks’ Kung Fu Panda 2 to bring the action-packed adventures right to your breakfast table.

    Throughout the spring, spin fighter toys featuring Kung Fu Panda 2 characters including Po, Tigress, Shifu, Monkey, Lord Shen, Mantis, Crane and Viper can be found inside specially marked boxes of participating General Mills cereals: Cocoa Puffs (11.8 oz.), Trix (10.7 oz.), Golden Grahams (12 oz.), Reese’s Puffs (13 oz.), Cheerios (14 oz.), Apple Cinnamon Cheerios (12.9 oz.), Cookie Crisp (11.25 oz.), Lucky Charms (11.5 oz.), Cinnamon Toast Crunch (12.8 oz.) and Honey Nut Cheerios (12.25 oz.).

    Let the games begin with one spin fighter toy in each box. Simply cut out the targets on the box and then use your spin fighter to try and knock them down. With eight character toys to collect, the Kung Fu fun can continue all summer long! I have to tell you, we have a few of these and I think they are just as fun as the boys do. They can be dangerous indoors though, as we found out lol

    The cereal that we received was the Apple Cinnamon Cheerios. The boys had never tried this before. It was no surprise to me that Spencer loved it but Royal was a bit unsure. Spencer snacked on it through out the day.
