SURREAL reviews and discussion

Surreal is one of the most well-marketed products on the market. I ordered 8 boxes in 5 different flavors because I was really excited to try them. For the first 5 seconds, it actually tasted pretty good, but then an explosion of over-the-top sweetness hit me, followed by a brutal aftertaste. I couldn't finish any of the packs and ended up labeling it "inedible". Curios to see if my experience was unique, I shared the cereal with 7 colleagues at work, and none of them were able to finish even a small portion, which confirmed that the issue wasn't just my personal taste. Honestly, I could only imagine eating this cereal in a war where you are desperate and any source of calories would work.

I was really excited to try Surreal cereal, especially with its promise of high protein, low carb, and zero sugar, but unfortunately, I was disappointed. The flavors, which are meant to mimic childhood favorites, just didn’t hit the mark for me. The texture was also off—kind of too dense and dry for a cereal. I understand the focus on health, but the taste and mouthfeel just weren’t enjoyable, and I couldn’t even finish the box. It’s a great concept, but for me, it didn’t live up to the hype. Wouldn’t recommend it if you’re looking for something that satisfies your cravings.

Loved this cereal and the mission - was pleasantly surprised by the taste and the crunch, given it uses a completely different set of ingredients to normal cereals. I got so excited that I went around the house comparing the protein content of one serving to other meals: it’s the same as two eggs, 3/4 tin of beans, 375g of my favourite Greek yoghurt. Amazing!

Cereal tastes decent for a 'health' cereal. And the top of the box is already perforated, so you don't need to do any ripping and inevitably break the closure. It's the small things.

Sampled four flavors – caramelized biscuit, frosted, cookies and cream, and cocoa. The cereal itself was okay, but each flavor had a slightly stale texture, and the taste consistency was lacking. The caramelized biscuit was overpowering, making it hard to enjoy, while the cookies and cream were disappointingly bland. The cocoa flavor stood out as the best, but overall, none of them brought back the nostalgic taste of childhood cereals.

Way to surgery for a non suger cereal. Let’s get this stright, they have swapped the suger for sweeteners and sweeteners are not exzacly healthy. The amount they have used here is ridiculous. Half the amount of sweetners and then half again and maybe you could call it healthy. I like the fact it’s high protein as on a plant based diet you don’t tend to get much but way to much “suger “ for me. Gave a small bowl to my 5 year old and he was bouncing off the walls , will stick to the bear cereal for him.

Eye catching brand and not easy to ignore once you get reeled in by their LinkedIn and Instagram antics! Super intuitive website and easy to purchase. Product came in 4 different flavours and they're all super satisfying and tasty. Love that I can eat and enjoy cereal now that provides me protein and decent nutrition. Strangely, frosted is my favourite flavour - I wasn't expecting that!!

A complete gamechanger for me and already very much part of my daily routine. So tasty that it's hard to believe they're sugar free and actually good for you but the nutritional panel doesn't lie - I genuinely look forward to breakfast now!

I love it! Convenient, easy, delicious brekkie option that gives me energy and keeps me full for ages. Also great for midnight snacks :)

Can’t believe how small the pack was when it arrived Complete rip off!!!

Didn’t even finish my first bowl before binning the whole box. Despite having 0 sugar, the cereal is unbearably sweet because it’s pumped full of Sweeteners which leave a terrible aftertaste that make feel ill. Google the research done on the sweetener that’s used - it ain’t good for you. Why not just get rid of the sweeteners and replace with a tiny bit of actual sugar/honey or the likes?!

This is just a review of the cinnamon…and let me be clear, I love cinnamon (the spice). But my goodness. I felt like I was eating a protein bar in the consistency of cereal with cinnamon attempting to block the taste. It was so heavy and artificial. I cannot recommend. If I want a protein-centric breakfast, it won’t be this.

The branding is cute and the social media page has lots of funny stuff, but I realized I got a bit tired of the cinammon flavor before I was halfway through the bag.

I want to start this by saying that I am not normally a cereal person, mostly because cereal has so much sugar and other crap in it that I'm like no thanks, that's not how I want to start my day. When Surreal came along, I was intrigued. Is it possible to love yourself and have cereal for breakfast?! Can it be?? Anyways, I was into it. I got a discount for working for one of the investors in the brand and bought the variety pack. I went from not having had cereal for breakfast in years to having it every morning! The flavors were pleasantly delish. The branding was great. The customer service was fab. Win, win, win.

Not the most flavourful cereal. It tastes healthy. Not sweet enough. It tastes a bit like cardboard. With other things, like in a yoghurt bowl, it’s edible. I wouldn’t purchase again.

Finally, a tasty, healthy, low carb cereal - love the flavours, packaging and overall brand. The only thing keeping me from the full 5 stars ⭐️ is the amount of servings - the recommended portion size is a bit small, perhaps good if you're on a diet, but with my normal serving size I only get 4-5 servings per box, so it feels a bit too expensive.

I found the flavors to be really nice, and barely a sacrifice to go low carb.

Great taste and branding

Very bland, processed flavours and awful texture. For the cost per box you would expect a way better product, but sadly it is all just branding and the product itself is very very poor

Tastes weird , like artificial sweetener with really nasty aftertaste - wouldn’t eat it again
