Familia Original Swiss Muesli Cereal, 32-Ounce Boxes ...

• Traditional muesli - a delicious blend of oats, whole wheat, rye, apples, raisins, hazelnuts, almonds, and honey
• No Sugar Added Muesli

The authentic taste & texture:
Growing up in Switzerland, I often had "Bircher Muesli" for breakfast. For those who don't know the history of "Muesli", the cereal was actually developed in the beginning of the 20th century by a Swiss doctor named Maximilian Bircher-Benner as a health food. See the wikipedia article on "Muesli" for more information. The abbreviated form, "Muesli," is a phonetic transliteration of the Swiss-German diminutive form of the German word "Mus", which translates to "mash", "mush" or "puree." Thus, it should be no surprise that in order to be authentic, in my opinion a "muesli" must become a soft mush when exposed to milk. Familia's Original Swiss Muesli is right on the mark - if you let it sit in milk for a few minutes, it'll absorb the liquid, and assume the "muesli" texture - a mush with some nice crunchy bits (nuts) as a counterpoint (unlike most impostor products, including the other varieties sold by Familia, which stay crunchy). The cereal is flavored and sweetened with honey and a variety of fruit (including, according to the ingredients list, raisins, apples and pears), giving it a flavor which transports me back to my childhood home. Four stars for a great authentic-tasting and feeling product. One star deduction for the occasional bit of nut-shell that makes its way into the cereal.

As good as I remember it:
This is actually the first branded product I remember. I first ate this 40 years ago at my grandmothers. It still tastes as good. I'm so glad Amazon is offering products like this. My local health store stopped carrying it since it was getting kinda expensive. This isn't like corn flakes -- here a little goes a long way. But then you also don't get hungry an hour after eating it. And I don't have to force my kids to eat it!
