Great product! Yum!

Hiya Everyone! I know I have told a few of you about this product, but I notice that many people have never heard of it, so I thought I would share with you all! (And, no, I am not being paid to promote them--I just love them!)

I just love the Mr. Wheat's Crispy Wheats. They are round puffed grain snacks. They come in Honey--my fave, Sea Salt and in Plain. I use them instead of bread. I put everything and anything on them--Tuna and chicken salad, a slice of cheese, eggs, peanut butter, cream cheese, etc.--Really whatever you can think of! The best part is that a serving size of them is 7 whole crisps--but they are big, the size of a hamburger, so, I never even have more than 2! They are low cal, low carb, and have some fiber in them. So, try them--they're really good!

Here's  the website... http://www.mrwheat.com/
I find them at IGA, Meat Farms, The Diet Shoppe...but you can check the website!

Enjoy!
Hugs, Heather

Sounds interesting! Now I just have to find a place that sells them locally! Thanks for sharing - I love new food ideas.

I think you can buy them from the website.. =) They come in a plastic wrapper like the Quaker Rice Cakes...the honey ones are a yellow wrapper, the Sea Salt and the Plain are blue, I think.. =)  So, you'll know what to look for!

Hope you find them and love them too!

Hugs, Heather

Hello, thank you for the post.
Yes at 1 month out I would think a couple would fill a person up....
I will share the nutrition info, for everyone's definition of lo cal and lo carb may be different. I am guessing those further out >6mo can eat more than 2 as a serving and for 24g carbs perhaps a slippery slope to carb monster...

INGREDIENTS: PUFFED WHEAT (WHOLE GRAIN WHEAT POWDER, RICE FLOUR, SOYBEAN OIL), NATURAL HONEY FLAVOR, WATER, SUCRALOSE, SALT

One serving is similar in calories and carbs to THREE rice cakes (plain) which would be 135 cal and 21 g carbs and 3 g fiber or THREE slices of Arnold Bakery Light Oatmeal Bread for 120 cal, 26 gr carbs & 7.5g fiber. All are carbs and we each find our way with those after surgery. :-)

Well, yes I see that for 7 whole crisps the carbs are 24, but if you use them instead of bread, like I was suggesting or if you adjust your consumption accordingly and have maybe 1 or 2, the carbs then are 3.5 or 7. So, I think, for most people that is very do-able.

My suggestion was to put a form of protwin on them, so even years out, I don't see people eating 7 whole crisps with chicken salad on all of them for instance. Maybe they'd have 1, or 2, or 3 with something on them. So, in that case, I find them a wonderful substitute for bread. =)

And, as always, poeple need to try things and determine for themselves, as everybody can tolerate things in a different way.

So, to everyone *****ads this.....check out the site http://www.mrwheat.com/ and try them...you might love them..and if not...then maybe you'd find something else you love.. =)

Hugs everyone!  JaimeCatLady---I was just trying to offer some help... ::shrug:: =(

Thanks for the info!  I would really like to try these!

I was at our health food store today and they did not carry them.  I have not checked the mainstream supermarkets yet - ShopRite, Stop n Shop, etc.  I wonder if they carry them.  They look great!!!

If you can't find them, you can buy them on their website mrwheat.com or on amazon.com, too. =)

Hope you find them and love them!

Hugs, Heather
