About this deal

Considering these are plant-powered bars, I knew that I needed to adjust my expectations going into this review. Generally speaking, plant-based protein bars don’t taste quite as good as their dairy-based counterparts. An overwhelming number of food products that claim to be healthy are made with artificial sweeteners – this means brands can make claims about a cereal being low-sugar whilst still tasting sweet. However, regular consumption of artificial sweeteners has been linked to changes in the gut microbiome and they are something I advise my clients to actively avoid. At the same time, look out for real sugar on an ingredients label, which can be disguised as cane juice, dextrose, isoglucose, jaggery, maltose and barley malt.” – Clarissa Watch Out For Wheat It had been created to target “mainly millennials and gen Z” shoppers who loved cereal but were “concerned about their health and what they consume”, the brand added.

SOYA Protein Isolate, Tapioca Starch, Inulin (Chicory Root Fibre), Coconut Oil, Cocoa Powder, Natural Flavourings, Salt, Sweetener: Sucralose( Soya )I suppose that’s why they don’t list the cup measurement alongside the weight measurement on this one. However, trying this cereal dry was very disappointing. Yes, you taste some chocolate, but it’s closer to the flavor of chocolate protein powder than it is actual cocoa powder.

I appreciate as a company you have your eyes fixed on America right now, but don't forget your loyal customers who got you there. Extremely disappointed by this company's recent service. I have been a long and loyal customer. As a vegan these bars are ideal for me to get a protein hit. LOW SUGAR, LOW CALORIES - Each 40g serving has less than 1g of sugar and with 150 calories per serving it is low in calories. No artificial flavours, colours or preservatives. This is a chocolate cereal without the guilt. When I measured out a serving, I did realize that 40g of cereal is rather small. While that’s a typical serving size for cereal, since this one is so dense and compact, that 40g equates to very little volume. Misfits co-founder Henry Sether said the NPD and rebrand would “widen our brand appeal and allow us to branch out into more categories and territories, cementing ourselves as a leading innovator in the plant-based functional food space across the globe”.

Traditional breakfast cereals tend to be loaded with sugar and are low in both fibre and protein, a combination that will send you on a blood sugar rollercoaster. Instead, look for a cereal that is high in protein, low in sugar and rich in fibre – these are the three macronutrients to be looking for. Bonus points if you can find a cereal that contains lots of nuts and seeds, which add additional protein and fats to create a more balanced meal.” – Clarissa Steer Clear Of Sweeteners

I’ve been reviewing protein bars long enough to know that the bars won’t actually look like that, but that is just too enticing to pass up. Misfits launched its Protein Cereal in two flavors, Chocolate and Chocolate Cinnamon, which we snapped up following their launch to see how they measure up against the many other high-protein cereals on the market. There is a growing mountain of functional products in the cereal format, and many of them are incredibly on point and enjoyable, so Misfits Protein Cereal has its work cut out for it. Review CEREALSY GOOD TASTING CEREAL - We do things a little different at Misfits. We wanted to take a classic breakfast food and think outside the (cereal) box. We have created two delicious flavours ready for you to try, with more suprises on the way. Based on the photos, I just couldn’t help myself. I mean, you look at the below product photo and try to tell me that it’s not one of the most delicious-looking protein bars you’ve ever seen: us.misfits.health The NPD – which would not only target breakfastbut also midday and evening occasions – replicated “the sugary and non-nutritious cereal brands in the market, without the actual junk”, said Misfits.VEGAN, NATURAL AND GLUTEN FREE - This cereal is certified by the vegan society. Dairy free, gluten free and completely natural. Misfits are proudly carbon neutral and we are palm oil free. Helping you find your inner feel good. Cereals like Weetabix and All Bran are wheat-based, which may seem like a healthy option, but wheat can irritate the gut and cause bloating. These big-brand cereals also all contain sugar. At the same time, wheat bran contains phytic acid (a natural substance found in wheat), which can prevent the absorption of certain nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, zinc and iron. If you enjoy these cereals, enjoy them sparingly and in small amounts.” – Kate Delmar-Morgan, nutritional therapist at the Institute for Optimum Nutrition Choose Granola Wisely When you open the box, it smells like you just stepped into a bakery where all they bake are chocolate donuts topped with chocolate frosting. A perfect example is Barebells: I absolutely love their protein bars ( Fulfil bars are extremely similar) but the plant-based Barebells protein bars really fell short for me. The fact that this is not touted as a keto-friendly cereal is also appealing to me because I tend to enjoy products more when they have carbs to them. Granted, there is very little sugar and it is overall low in carbs, but it’s a bit more appealing to me than a keto cereal.

The chocolate Misfits cereal definitely improves in milk, but not substantially. That bitter aftertaste is almost completely eliminated when eaten with milk, which is awesome, but the overall chocolate flavor is still very much subpar. I had heard amazing things about their protein bars, but as a lover of cereal, I needed to give their protein cereal a try first.

Being 100% vegan, low sugar, and high protein, I have to admit that my expectations for the cereal going into this review were extremely low. They are vegan, low in sugar and gluten-free. Each 40g serving provides 14g protein and weighs in at under 150 calories. Misfits is a very popular brand overseas, and they’re doing their best to break into the US market now as well.
