Futurelife cereal.

I bought it too, on Monday. Had it for supper. It is edible but I don't like it. Too grainy and I can taste the artificialness by just smelling it.

I also went ahead and bought ENSURE. The nutritional powder (that you mix into a shake). It tastes alright but it's a far cry away from tasting like Nesquick ... which is what it is aspiring to be.

My question ... why don't Nestlé also enter this nutritional market. They could just take their existing product and add the nutritional elements to it and it would be a best-seller.

Other companies take nutritional elements and then try and make it taste good ... in which they seldom, if ever, succeed.

Also bought Future Life. The kids preferred ProNutro. Couldn't get them to eat it.

Bravo!!

Put your faith in kids regarding the important stuff ... they will never disappoint you.

But don't do the same regarding trivial stuff ... then they'll do their best to BS you.

EDIT: You can quote me on this.

My kids, especially my daughter, is a fine measure of the quality of the goods. She eats all her veg and fruits. Loves salads, loves healthy foods.

Dude, thank you for your advice, but I am far from gullible and far from being duped. Thanks all the same ;):)

Congratulations. Seriously, I'm serious.

I'm serious when I saying that some parents are not ANYWHERE as serious about their own kids' upbringing as how you are ... ... serious.

I really like Futurelife cereal. It tastes nice :) I like it better when it's as hard as half-baked cement.
