About Kellogg's Special K Cereal Low Carb Protein Plus 12.5oz
Raisins, pecans, and cinnamon join the four-grain whole grain blend (oats, barley, wheat, quinoa) in this Special K hot cereal variety. Soy protein isolate and the pecans together push protein above what most cereals offer. The dried cane syrup and maple syrup add sweetness without completely dominating. Fiber runs solid. Pecans contribute fat that's mostly unsaturated. Stir in hot water and it eats like a warm, textured porridge with real fruit and nut pieces, several steps above a standard flavored instant packet.
