    Lots of fake health experts in the comments. Sunflower and avocado oil are less healthy than olive oil. They aren’t “unhealthy,” but they aren’t exactly health foods either. If you think this non-cereal cereal is much more healthy than actual cereal, it’s not worth much discussion since you clearly do not have a great grasp on what makes a diet healthy or unhealthy. The only health advantage of this product is found if someone has a specific diet targeting a narrow nutrition intake due to some other need (i.e. a special Keto diet or low carb diet). For a baseline diet, however, there is little to no health benefit here. Don’t pay $10/box for this. If you like cereal, this doesn’t taste quite close enough to be worth it. If your dietary restrictions make it that you can’t eat grains or any sugars, then cereal isn’t for you. Eat something else.

      yeah sunflower is sad but avocado oil is really good. And yes olive oil is great but pretty hard to fit into cereals.
      these cereals are gluten free, have less carbs, less sugars, more proteins. And yes they have less vitamins because they are not enriched.

If I'm on a good sized work day and eat breakfast at 8 AM consisting of Cereal, Orange Juice and an egg. I'm hungry by like 11 and it's nowhere near lunch yet.

    well this is a keto cereal which is a diet of high fats, moderate protein and low carbs - this satisfies that diet characteristic. Low healthier sugar - and avocado oil is healthy. The vitamins in the other cereal is not substantial for anything to make a difference in daily living ... so it has more than magic spoon but hey .1 is greater than 0. Keto is expensive and it's a 'cereal' as it's like a cereal. If you are keto, you can't eat the regular cereals on keto because of the higher sugar and grains so keto-ers miss a regular looking, crunch like cereal so yeah, they will pay for the 'not eating it every day' type cereal. Do the keto-ers wish it was the same price as the sugary grain filled cereals? heck yeah, but it's not the case. Specialty items (which are made differently that massly produced regular, easy to make stuff), cost more, in anything. Gluten free, when it first came out was more expensive than regular gluten products, dairy free products were too and look at all the ingredients in those... even a vegan burger - beyond meat - the ingredients are massive and some you don't want to pronounce...and very costly vs regular burger as well... so yeah, specialty costs. I see where you are coming from but if you aren't into keto or specialty diets, you don't get it... I'm guessing you can just eat normal but some are on special diets for specific reasons.

    Yeah, I think you're missing the point of the low-carb nature of food like this. It's to fit in with a ketogenic diet. In other words, you wouldn't have fruit or juices with it because the diet itself is low-carb. A cereal like this would typically be eaten with an alternative to cow's milk like coconut milk. So despite its "healthiness" being implied in the marketing, it's all about it having nutritional compatibility with a certain sort of diet. Not completely different to a vegan not eating meat but instead having a meat substitute.
    That all being said, it's still too expensive for my liking.

    • @WeSkeem
      @WeSkeem  2 роки тому +7

      Pretty sure YOU missed the point. I am answering two questions: is it as advertised and is it worth it. This isn’t advertised as keto diet food. It’s advertised as a “health” food or “healthy alternative”. The entire point of the review is to see if the ads are honest and if the product is worth it. Nothing is “implied” to be healthy. It’s explicitly stated.
      Life tip: Pay attention to people speaking, rather than solely focusing on your internal dialogue, and you’ll come out looking at least half as intelligent as you think yourself to be. Also, using words like “ketogenic” instead of just saying “keto” doesn’t make you look smart. It makes you look like a Reddit neckbeard with a fake 200 IQ score. Using complex vernacular is one thing, especially if your conversational word choice matches what you post online. However, using technical terms where generic publicly known terms better apply is pretentious and not intelligent. You come off like a kid saying “sodium chloride” instead of salt. You’re not smart for it, just obnoxious and wreaking of insecurity.

    I can agree in saying it's not for everyone, there's better alternatives.

    As for me, I have ARFID (Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) which is an eating disorder caused by trauma thats summed up as "extrenely picky eating".
    I struggle with it, and hate it, so many foods I wanna try that healthy just being around them in a kitchen makes me feel ill. I wanna eat healthier so badly and already cereal is a big part of my diet.
    I hate my diet and am always trying to expand it but it's insanely difficult.
    I fit into one of those niches that magic spoon is made for.
    Finally another food to eat that actually has protein in it that actually feels edible!

  • @chellebethel

    Everything is relative, so while you may say this is *not* healthy or just as healthy as the regular version of the cereal... that is also not true. The regular cereal is potentially life threatening to the severely diabetic or a person with celiac disease. While they can enjoy a bowl of Magic Spoon without health issues. As for advertising, it really depends on what advertisement you saw/heard. I learned about this from my Endocrinologist, who is the specialist that manages my diabetes. If my diabetes doctor finds this cereal healthy enough for me to eat, then I find it safe enough to label it as healthy. Just for reference, I have an extremely strict diet. Due to multiple health conditions and diseases I cannot eat red meat, pork, gluten, sugar, carbs (as little as possible), most fruits, dairy, or most processed foods. So when my doctor recommends something that is a processed food, it is a big deal to me.
    As for the taste, again that is relative. Any diabetic, people with celiac disease, or people on Keto will tell you that it is almost impossible to find processed foods that are truly "healthy", taste like the non-healthy version, and are low in carbs/no sugar/no gluten/etc. Also the price tag for any products that fit the same criteria are hella expensive, absurdly expensive, make you swallow your tongue type of expensive. It's why most people who have severely restricted diets typically only eat at home and prepare/cook their own food. Going out to eat is a nightmare and you can spend hours pouring over the labels in a store to try and find something you can eat. Most processed foods that claim to be keto or diabetic friendly are still loaded down with carbs...which then turn into sugar when they are broken down in your body.
    Basically, this cereal IS a healthier alternative to regular cereals for people who cannot eat regular cereals and also for those who don't have dietary restrictions. Because, regular cereals have sugar in them and are mostly carbs...which is also sugar. As a side note, avocado oil is healthy for you, it is one of the only oils I am allowed to have.

    Hey, you assert in the video that sunflower oil and avocado oil aren't healthy which is blatantly false. Although the data around sunflower oil is not as clear, avocado oil and its omega-3 fatty acids are definitely healthy for you. I don't even know what your assertion that oils are bad for you is based off. If I had to guess, I would guess that it is absolutely baseless. Avocado oil and Sunflower oil definitely blow the high fructose corn syrup found in almost all other breakfast cereals out of the water when it comes to healthfulness. As for the sweetener blend, allulose and monk fruit are both sugar alcohols that are commonly used in protein powders and the like. They're significantly better than sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and also other sugar alcohols such as sucralose and aspartame which are found in diet sodas. The $10 dollar price tag does seem hard to justify though.

      Olive oil is healthier than avocado oil. You don’t hear people calling olive oil a “health food”. It’s not about it being unhealthy. It’s about it not being a health food. Because it isn’t. This non-cereal brands itself as a “health food,” but its ingredients are far from it.

      @@WeSkeem I don't know where you are looking but everyone calls avocados superfoods. It would stand to reason that avocado oil, derived from the mashing of avocado fruit is similarly healthy. Both olive oil and avocado oil are monounsaturated fats which most experts consider healthy. I think you're still stuck in the mindset ot fat being bad for you which is incredibly wrong.

      @@gameaddict1010 the "Fat is bad" trend of the 80's never was shaken off once they proved it false.
      Too many companies push "Fat free" versions of foods, and people still buy them. And side by side, EVOO & Avocado Oil per tbsp are the same calories, fat, saturated, and monosaturated fat levels.
      The polysaturated fat of EVOO is 0.5g less than avocado, and the vitamin E level of EVOO is 10% higher. That's it. So EVOO isn't blowing avocado oil out of the water in health benefits. Both reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
      But the big thing here; EVOO has an overpowered flavor that would probably ruin the flavor effect Magic Spoon is going for. Avocado Oil really has no bold, in your face flavor.
      That said, I agree with most that the price is steep. And specialty foods that would make more things available to diabetics, celiacs dieses sufferers, etc. shouldn't be priced out of existence for some people.

    Paused at 4:20 (lol, not intentionally) while the lucky charms does have vitamins, they are synthetic and are not as bioavailable except for the folic acid; folic acid (vs folate in natural form) is fully absorbed. This is not exactly good though, as too much folic acid can make someone not realize their body needs B12 (they kind of work together- in simple terms).
    All this to say that the sugar cereal make a good source of vitamins for health, it’s an FDA requirement. The cereal free cereal is bullshit though and is a prime example of why I hate marketing in food. Too few people know enough about nutrition to understand that it’s BS to claim that crap as healthy, rather than just a different version of junk. If one likes it and wants to spend more money…ok, but it’s definitely no better than the store bought junk.

    This is clearly a specialty cereal for folks who cannot eat carbs or have added sugar in their diet. If you're just a regular degular person who can eat cereal without any ill health effects eat your regular cereal. But the reality for a lot of people, especially as they get older is that their metabolisms change and their bodies don't process sugar as efficiently as it did when they were younger. The older you got the less sugar you need to eat generally. This is why this is marketed as cereal for adults. It's a specialty food item so it's going to be priced higher than common mass-produced foods. I'm just trying to find the scam here. This product presents exactly as advertised.

    I support what Magic Spoon is doing. Yes, it's expensive, but so is anything nowadays that's made with high quality ingredients. Take Chipotle for example with the high quality meats they use, and compare the price of Chipotle with something like Taco Bell. Taco Bell's food is cheap for a reason, because it's unhealthy garbage made with cheap, unhealthy ingredients. Same goes for sugary cereals which are much cheaper than Magic Spoon. But if you do your research on sweeteners, you will find that Allulose and Monk Fruit are 2 of the healthiest sweeteners you can consume. There are other factors such as healthy fats / oils vs unhealthy fats / oils. Avocado oil is one of the healthiest fats you can consume. Do your research before criticizing a product so harshly. Magic Spoon is doing something special. If more people cared enough about their health to educate themselves on nutrition, then we wouldn't see videos like this.
