My Dad who introduced me to this cereal only a few weeks ago. Apparently he remembered the stuff from childhood and was suprised, upon discovering it in the health shop, to find it still available. It has a box design that clearly hasn't changed in at least 20 years and the stuff looks like pieces of bark. But he'd had quite an addiction to it and implored me to at least try a piece, despite the grim appearance. And bugger me if a wasn't delicious. Made from dates, prunes and various cereals (but all magically formed into these bark pieces, it doesn't physically have bits of prune bobbing around, (that would be weird) and looks to be pretty bloody good for you! I have now invested in a box.

Excellent, very different to other cereals and extremely more-ish. They have a delicious fruity taste and are a very handy snack, as well as good for breakfast. I've been eating them all day!

We love your Frugrains but can you please use a less powerful glue on your packets. It is impossible to open the box without destroying it!

Would you believe I searched the internet to see if fru-grains still existed. The memory of them still lingers from childhood! So delicious, no other cereal has ever come close!

Wonderful cereal but can one find it in the US? I have fond memories but cannot find it.

The order was most excellent, I have given seven packets of Fru Grains as gifts to friends so far. None of them had heard of the cereal before and assure me it will regularly be on their table. I had never heard of Fru Grains until a friend of mine gave me a packet, I then found you on the net and boom boom. Every one is happy. It's good for breakfast or as a nibble during the day. I think it is so good that if I was younger I would take over their marketing.

What a great find from the health shop! This is one of the most impressive breakfast cereals ever... even my partner who wasn't so sure of the look didn't complain and finished the whole bowl and we've bought some more! The box itself also looks great! Its so nice to have an ingrediants list that doesn't involve chemicals and additives that you've never heard of. I'm a fan:)
