special k protein cereal

 I bought some of this awhile ago.  I only eat it like once a week.  Well I bought another box, and guess what, i noticed when I got home that they CHANGED the recipe.  The new one has more sugar and less fiber then the older one.  5 more sugar grams a serving and more calories.  i'm not sure if it's worth it to me anymore.  

Good lesson for me to never assume an old standby is going to stay the same.

 How muh protein does it contain?

I noticed that also.... we gotta watch those labels

I wonder if any of those "Total" cereals have protein? Guess I'll have to check out a label next time I'm at the store.

Oh my go****hat is a really good point! It's especially concerning for me since I have EXTREME dumping syndrome so just a little difference could ruin my whole day. What made you notice?

 i was organizing my pantry and making it so all the nutritional labels were facing outwards.  my daughter likes to read them, and she noticed the difference!

That WAS one of the cereals on my o.k. list to eat once I can. But now that its changed, I don't know if it is worth it. Thanks for sharing!

I can eat it no problem.

 Special K Protein cereal
serving  size 3/4 c. Protein 10 g, 7 gms sugar

Kashi Go Lean
serving size 1 c, Protein 13 g, 6 gm sugar

I've only used Kashi for cold cereal following surgery, because of the higher protein.
I do eat whole oat oatmeal occasionally-- not much protein, but I like it in cold weather. 

I noticed that when I was looking at their website and grabbing the stats for someone I was telling about it...

I emailed the company and the response I got was that they did test marketing and people wanted it to taste better and be more palatable.  So they added sugar, cinnamon, and switched up a few other things.  But yeah, they went from 2 grams to 7 grams per serving.  I only use a half ounce per meal, but still... yeah.

I think if they want something to taste sweeter, but something sweeter!
