The best hot cereal on the market. 2 cups of milk brought to just before boiling, a Table spoon of butter, a dash of salt & 1/3 cup of cream of wheat makes 1 adult serving when simmered while stirring with a whisk to desired consistancy makes an excellant breakfast.

Missing items
I didn't receive this. I believe I'm missing a bag of groceries. I am also missing a 4 lb. bag of great value sugar, a 2 lb. bag of brown sugar and white wonder bread.

    Don't buy the instant brand of this
    They make instant packets of this product which, at least to us, were inedible. Take the time to cook this on the stove. We added salt, butter and brown sugar and it tasted exactly like I had it 20 years ago. Please don't stop making this product! It might seem expensive, but 3 tablespoons of this plus water or milk is all it takes to make a breakfast for 1-2 people.

    Good for Breakfast, Good for Dinner as a Side
    This good old box of Farina most times enters our bellies with joy at dinnertime, where we fix it with some butter and melted cheese. It makes a terrific alternative for rice and pasta. It's of course good for breakfast with milk and brown sugar as well.

    Good eating any meal
    I am 80 and I have loved cream of wheat my whole life. It is quick to fix and very tasty. It is also versatile. You can add any number of things to dress it up or eat it my favorite way with just a little butter and sugar. Oh and it is good for you also imho!!!

    Yum
    Had not had Cream of Wheat in years. It was delicious. I liked the 2.5 cooking time from the original. Was concerned that the flavor may not be as good as the longer cooking time. Flavor was delicious., no loss in flavor. Stayed hot/warm for long time. Enjoyed every bite.

    A PERFECT BREAKFAST MEAL.
    EXCELLENT BREAKFAST CEREAL! COOKS IN 2/12 MINUTES. I PREPARE IT WITH WATER/MILK AND BUTTER, WARM IT TO A QUICK REDUCED HEAT BOIL. I NEVER MEASURE I ADD THE AMOUNT I WANT AND IT IS DONE IN 2 1/2 MINUTES. ABSOLUTELY YUMMY. I LIKE TO ADD A PACKET OF MAPLE INSTANT CEREAL WHICH IS ALREADY SWEETENED WITH BROWN SUGAR. SO I COOK THE REGULAR CREAM OF WHEAT FOR 1 1/2 MINUTES THEN ADD THE INSTANT PACKET FOR THE LAST MINUTE, STIRRING CONSTANTLY. YOU CAN ALWAYS ADD MORE MILK FOR CREAMIER AND MORE LIQUIDY FLAVOR. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS WITH A TOAST OF ENGLISH MUFFINS/WHITE AND OR WHEAT BREAD. A PERFECT BREAKFAST MEAL.

    Quick and So Good
    This brings back memories of being a kid; love this stuff. It takes minutes to make and after I add a touch of butter and some sugar substitute, I'm happy with what I've cooked.

    Smooth, healthy mild homily...
    It mild tasting is just wonderful, and if you have an upset stomach this is ideal to eat. There's many ways to prepare and cook, adding other ingredients; and you could eat for dinner along with your other desires. Included this with your shopping list...

    Very healthy and delicious!
    I keep purchasing cream of wheat, because my husband loves it. Also, it is recommended by my husband dietician because it is low in potassium for my husband heart benefit.

    Sticky Situation
    Heavy plastic items in the same box not properly packed. Cream of wheat in the same box with heavy peanut butter jars and jelly jars, one of which broke open in shipping, being plastic, spilling the jelly all over the box. I washed off the cream of wheat boxes and was able to salvage most of it. We threw out the open jar and washed the other two off, along with the peanut butter jars.

    A must have for every pantry!
    This will take you right back to the good old days. It's so simple yet so good. It's easy to make too. You can even make it in your microwave! In trying times, it's good to have non-perishable food choices in your pantry. It has a very mild flavor. You can add whatever you'd like to spice up it's flavor. Just sprinkle some sugar on top or go crazy with maple syrup, brown sugar and cinnamon, molasses, anything you want! A must have for every pantry.

    Cream of Wheat
    IT BRINGS BACK MEMORIES AS A CHILD. MY MOTHER WOULD MAKE IT WITH A SMALL AMOUNT OF BUTTER, CINNOMON AND MILK. It is just as good as I remembered. I love it. It is so creamy. If you like oatmeal, you will love it. The price is great. The grocery store near me wanted double the amount.
