Default Please Flax cereal Taste!!!!

Hi again.

Could someone please help me? I really need information on this Flax O meal I keep hearing about. I need to know if it taste okay before I start investing in it. I am sooooo getting sick of eggs and bacon or ham. I really loved cereals, cold and hot. I really need to know of the taste. Is it chalky, or taste bitter or have any kind of aftertaste? I REALLY cant just eat something just cause its all I have. I want to try it but I am afraid. I spent sooo much money on a certain "Low carb peanut butter bar" I wont say the name, but I know when they did the research, they had to know it tasted nasty and dry (I figure the taste resembles a peanut butter/chocholate shoe) when they decided to put it on the market. PS. I hate cinnamin(sp) always have. Thanks for your help.

You can eat anything LC you want for your meals, so breakfast doesn't have to be breakfast food!

For example, sometimes in the morning I have leftover veggies from the night before, and extra cold chicken or a pork chop cooked extra from the previous night's dinner.

Also, if you do a search using the search button near the top right of the screen, search for flax o meal and have the requests come up "by posts" you will get linked to other discussions on flax o meal. I haven't tried it myself cuz I'm staying away from commercial LC products.

Thanks Angela,
Its funny that you say that because before, I would have no problem eating leftover Hamburger Helper for breakfast or I would make a taco, or even leftover fried chicken and macaroni an cheese. I just used to have oatmeal or cold cereal too and I want to have some kind of substitute for that. I keep hearing of this Flax O meal but everytime I have tried low carb products they tasted really nasty and I just didn't want to invest anything else. But since I haven't heard a response on the taste I took the chance and purchased a bag. I hope it taste good because if it does, I will tell everyone, but if it doesn't, I have a habit of telling the truth and describing what things resemble, so I cant do that. But thank you for your response. I truly appreciate it.

have to say, that i love it. i finished my 2 packages i had so i ordered more. the chocolate is good, but my favorite is the butter pecan. i add cream and splenda to mine, which makes it very comforting.
good luck
