I am really digging on all-bran! It looks like rabbit poop, but it taste really good.

It has 6 grams of effective carbs per serving, and it helps keep you regular.

The best thing is mix it with a dash of Splenda, and coat it with heavy cream. Let it sit so it gets kind of soft. It is highly delicious!

Who knew I'd be a fan of bran???

6 grams may not seem like much, but with the carbs from the cream...and the fact I only get 20-25g a day of carbs, I'll have to take your word on it... it does sound good to eat "real" cereal, though!

NEWS!!! The Kellogg's Bran Buds have only *3* effective carbs per serving!!!!

They are DELICIOUS!!! (especially with one pack of Splenda and two tablespoons of heavy cream)

It's a great breakfast, and it helps you stay regular. I had a problem with constipation while I started Atkin's... now I poop everyday.

Actually, it's 12 net carbs per 1/3 cup serving. Total carbs 23.97, fiber 11.97, and 8.04 grams of sugar!!

Did a google search and diet-data.com had this listed.

And here I was, ready to go out and buy it.

WHAT? The Kellogg's box I counted three!!!

Oh poo...

Here's right from the box (I'm copying the box)
TOTAL CArB: 24g
Dietary Fiber: 13g
Soluble Fiber: 3g
Insoluble Fiber: 10g
Sugars: 8g
Other Carb: 3g

Okay... I'm confused. Help me with the carb count.

Sorry!

Soluble fiber and insoluble fiber when added = total fiber. So Total Fiber is actually only 13. You probably shouldn't count the soluble fiber, so you only minus out the 10 insoluble. So I guess that makes it 14 carbs for a 1/3 cup! OUCH

Oh well.

'All Bran' Doesn't that imply ALL Bran?
Someone look at their box label and tell me what the second ingredient is.

If you purchase the Quakers wheat bran used for making muffins and cookies it only has 2 net carbs for 1/2 cup...

Nutlettes are 6g of carbs for 1/2 cup and they have powdered soy milk already on them so you (I know this is gross) just add water.

I suppose 1 or 2 tbsps of cream wouldnt kill it though if you can spare the carbs.

Yeah I know, they really look like turtle food or something, and the container looks like one you find in a pet store.
