  • Always on my shopping list

    "O's", as we call them, are a pantry staple now. Our four children love them with and without milk. They are a favourite breakfast food, but also as a lunchbox snack. I usually have a little dish in the car to occupy our toddler if we're caught in town. I have the confidence that I'm giving my children a healthy option because they are made from wholegrain, have no artificial colours or flavours, and have the Heart Foundation tick. I even had my toddler thread them onto a stick of dry spaghetti to build her fine motor skills, then let her yummy them up when she was finished. Would recommend Cheerios to everyone.

  • Still a favourite!

    Still a favourite in our house, my 3 girls love Cheerios! If they had their way they would have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as morning tea, afternoon tea and dessert. I even like it too. Definitely a cereal I would recommend and already have, also purchase already as well.

    My 3 daughters love Cheerios, they love the flavour, the texture, the shape. They enjoy it with or without milk, either, either way it was yummy. I even love it without milk, a great breakfast, as well as a snack. It was great as there were no left overs :) their bowls were empty and milk sipped up. It was a tasty treat!

  • Fantastic product!

    I love cheerios! they have that old fashioned flavour like the cereal you used to eat as a kid tasted like. They are healthy for you too, when i joined a gym and went on a 'healthy eating plan' you could have cheerios for breakfast i was surprised! until i read the sugar and fat content and it was way lower than a lot of other cereals on the market. Definitely a winner in my book!

  • Not just a nutritious breakfast but portable snack!

    There really aren't that many breakfast cereals available with the National Heart Foundation Tick of Approval to begin with, not only does this cereal have their approval, my whole family enjoyed the great taste as well.

    It is added peace of mind knowing that Uncle Tobys CHEERIOS are made with 74% wholegrain, 4 Wholegrains which are all Australian grown and still NO artificial colours or flavours.

    I found them to be tasty enough to have as a snack without the addition of milk. They can just be stored in a zip lock bag when you're out and about providing you with a quick convenient snack which is not only delicious but nutritionally balanced as well.

    We will definitely continue to purchase Cheerios!

  • Never lasts...

    Miss 7 favourite breakfast cereal is Uncle Toby's Cheerios.

    If I'd let her, she'd eat them all the time!

    Devoured as a delicious breakfast cereal with cold milk in the morning, and then also eaten throughout the day as a dry ingredient in home made trail mix, Uncle Toby's cheerios can be used in more than one way!

    Uncle Toby’s Cheerios is very reasonable priced and I know that the box will never last long in our house with miss 7 around!

  • One of the healthier, tastier options for the kids

    My daughter loves Cheerios. For breakfast with milk, or in her lunchbox for morning tea dry. With corn, wheats, oats and rice and no artificial colours or flavours, its a great start to any childs day. It seems to have more fibre in than some other breakfast cereals which is really important for the children too. Recommend to other parents and will be buying again for our children of course!

  • Breakfast!

    Uncle Tobys CHEERIOS is a cereal that I purchase on a regular basis for my seven year old daughter. This is her favourite cereal and she enjoys it on most mornings when we have it.

    While Uncle Tobys CHEERIOS is not as healthy as other breakfast options, it certainly is not the worst!

    My daughter is eating breakfast and has food in her stomach ready for the day, that's a start, I'm happy for!

    Cheerios are a delicious breakfast choice - they are healthy and hearty and very easy to get children to eat! My 2 & 1/2 year old absolutely loves them and would eat them for breakfast, lunch and dinner if I let him! Uncle Tobys are certainly a brand that can be trusted to be healthy and delicious.

  • Loved by the Miss Five

    When it comes to breakfast cereal it can be hard finding something that's healthy and the kids enjoy. My daughter loves Cheerios. Most mornings her choice is Cheerios. We even pour some dry into a container for my daughter to take to school and eat at morning tea. Being made of grains such as corn, oats rice and wheat and having the Heart Foundation Tick is definitely a bonus in our books when selecting a breakfast cereal.

  • Breakfast food

    While Uncle Tobys CHEERIOS aren't the most healthiest breakfast when compared to muesli, porridge or yoghurt with fresh fruit; they certainly are better than other sugar packed cereals.

    My youngest daughter, loves the taste of Uncle Tobys CHEERIOS and eats them regularly for breakfast or dry for a quick snack.

    Uncle Tobys is a brand that I recognise and trust.

    I regularly purchase Uncle Tobys CHEERIOS.

  • Loved by all four kids

    The shape of the Cheerios appealed to my children. They loved the taste. Cheerios were more filling than other breakfast cereals. My children also enjoyed Cheerios as a snack taken in their Lunchboxes to school or after school with a cup of milk. So Cheerios were an all round win in our home

  • No flavor

    These have been given to my 2yo for a dry snack and he even refuses them then! Parents didnt like them at all, said they didnt have a flavor. I now have an almost full box sitting in my cupboard taking up room. I wouldnt buy these again. I dont like to throw good food away but these are now getting to their best before date and will be put in the green bin!

  • Surprising hit with the kids!

    I was slow to try this cereal with my three children, as they love Froot Loops and these looked like they wouldn't interest them and taste pretty bland. Luckily, the kids really enjoyed them and didn't ask to add any sugar or anything to make them taste better! I would much rather buy these than some other sugar-laden cereal, as these are mucgh healthier and I feel better when the kids eat these over other less healthy choices!

  • Never lasts...always gets eaten.

    Uncle Tobys CHEERIOS is a favourite cereal in our house. Eaten dry as a snack or with milk for breakfast, it gets devoured. While still not the most healthiest cereal available, compared to oats, etc, it is certainly much better than other cereal options. When we are running short on time, the small convenience packets are handy, being able to grab a packet and eating dry on our way.

  • A delicious, crunchy breakfast ceral for everyone to enjoy

    I really enjoy eating cheerios for breakfast as they aren't too sweet and are lovely to have with a sliced banana and milk. Keeps you full until lunchtime. I also use cheerios as an afternoon snack mixed with cranberries, dark choc chips and cashew nuts, a bit like a trail mix, so yummy!

    I like that they are Australian made and a mix of corn, oats, wheat and rice. I also like that they have the Heart Foundation's tick of approval.

Mum-of-two Rebecca McCracken has spent the last four years reading ingredient lists on pretty much everything she buys at the supermarket.

Like many parents raising kids with food allergies, a quick trip to the supermarket often means checking labels, comparing products and hoping to find something the whole family can eat.

Bec’s four-year-old son and 17-month-old daughter were both born with cow’s milk protein allergy. While her son has since outgrown his allergies, her toddler still reacts to dairy, making even everyday staples like bread a challenge.

“Unless we buy expensive sourdough for seven or eight dollars, we don’t really have a choice.”

Even then, it’s not ideal.

“A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich,” Bec laughs. “And fairy bread on sourdough is not great.”

A New Loaf On The Block

Bec runs an online community for allergy families, so she spends plenty of time sharing recipes, product finds and supermarket discoveries with other parents.

It was one of those parents who first told her about new JUST bread.

“A follower messaged me and said, ‘Oh my gosh, this bread is coming soon.’ I was like, ‘Where? When? I need to know. I’m getting my car keys and running!'”

Made with baker’s flour, water, yeast, vinegar, oil and salt, JUST bread contains no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours.

For Bec, it sounded almost too good to be true. “When we saw JUST bread, I was like, ‘You’re joking.’ A bread that’s fresh baked but in the bread aisle? That’s unheard of for us.”

“It was really exciting for our family and for the allergy community.”

The Family’s Toughest Critic Approved

Of course, there was one person whose opinion mattered more than anyone else’s.

“My toughest critic is my daughter. She is so fussy. We know something is really good if she approves it, and she approves it. She loves it. She’ll eat it plain, toasted, as French toast … whatever. She loves it.”

Bec says she was impressed too.

“I like it. I like that it’s only got minimal ingredients and doesn’t have the additives and preservatives that are in a lot of other brands.”

A Simpler Option For Everyday Families

Bec tried out JUST bread because of her family’s allergies, but she says it has a broader appeal.

“I think everyone is becoming more conscious of additives and preservatives in their food.”

It’s a feeling many of us can probably relate to. We don’t all want to overhaul the way we eat, but plenty of us are paying a little more attention to ingredient lists and looking for products that keep things simple.

Bread is one of those foods that’s always around. It ends up in lunchboxes, on the breakfast table, alongside soup on a cold night and covered in hundreds and thousands at birthday parties. When we eat something that often, it’s only natural to wonder what’s in it.

JUST bread keeps things simple with a handful of pantry ingredients and no artificial preservatives, flavours or colours. It’s the sort of loaf that fits easily into busy family life without asking us to compromise on taste or convenience.

Little Changes, Big Difference

 

For Bec, finding a loaf of bread her whole family can enjoy is about more than ticking another item off the shopping list.

“It seems like such a little thing to the normal community, but for us this is a massive win.”

Being able to make sandwiches without worrying about ingredients. Packing lunchboxes a little more easily. Bringing back fairy bread for birthdays. Sometimes it’s the little things that make family life feel a whole lot simpler.

And while Bec found JUST bread because she needed another allergy-friendly option, its simple ingredient list is likely to appeal to plenty of other families too. After all, when we can choose everyday foods made with ingredients we recognise, that’s a pretty good place to start.

JUST Bread is made on a line that also processes soy and sesame.

  • I am so glad to hear about this and will definitely be on a look out for this in the supermarket. I have noticed that there are starting to be more ‘cleaner’ products in the supermarket, meaning consumers are being heard. We are going full circle back to how foods use to be produced before companies got greedy and started taking shortcuts to producing food items. I hope we continue seeing more preservative and additive free options that are affordable come back in the supermarkets.

  • Grabbing your car keys and running for a bread ?? I can’t imagine doing so for a bread lol ! It’s nice to see that more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and put on the market.
    I don’t agree with the statement that “A kid doesn’t want to eat a sourdough sandwich”. It depends on what type of bread you introduce to your kids. My kids grew up with 7 seeds, rustic bread and sourdough and they love it. It’s also quite easy and cheap to make sourdough bread yourself.

    Reply

  • I haven’t seen this bread in the supermarket but will be looking for it now. I have been trying to avoid preservatives and additives for some time now and as highlighted in the article bread it difficult to find, or super expensive, without them so I don’t have it often.

  • This is fantastic, finally a bread that is not full of nasty stuff. I will be going straight out to buy this. My son has ARFID and will only eat white bread, but it’s not terribly healthy. With this bread, at least I know that it is much healthier than the alternatives. Woohoo

  • what about gluten is it gluten free thats what i need

    Reply

  • I cant wait to give this bread a go (so far its always been sold out at my local woolies so it must be good). So good its suitable for those with allergies too. I think nowadays were all looking for cleaner options of ingredients in our foods so this is a step in the right direction.

  • I am glad more and more allergy friendly products are being produced and offered. I don’t agree with Bec’s statement that kids don’t like sourdough bread. My kids were introduced to sourdough and the most rustic and seeded breads from the time they started to eat bread, and they love it

    Reply

  • Oh I cannot wait to try this bread! We go through that much bread each week and I always feel so guilty with how much my kids have – not anymore! Would love to see them introduce other variants in the future – multigrain and gluten free would be superb!

    Reply

  • This is such a great product that I’m looking forward to trying! I’ve only been buying bread from bakeries the last few years because grocery store bread texture was so dense and unpleasant. But the hassle with bakery bread is I can’t get it everywhere! I’ll be really keen to give this a go
