Cream of Wheat Stove Top Hot Cereal, Original, 2 1/2 Minute Cook Time, 28 Ounce

It cooks up perfectly smooth and creamy every single time, and it’s one of the most comforting breakfasts you can make. I love how quick and easy it is to prepare just a few minutes on the stove and it’s ready. It’s also super versatile. You can dress it up with cinnamon, fruit, or a little sugar, or keep it simple and it still tastes amazing. It’s warm, filling, and feels like a cozy start to the day.

Always a good day for a good hot breakfast

I absolutely love cream of wheat, but have been having a problem finding it in stores lately. This was the same brand that I’ve always used growing up and happy that it is sold on Amazon.

Great yummy taste, texture and fast cook time.

Childhood favorite!

Update: I ordered a second 28 oz box. That box leaked inside the Amazon delivery box. What a mess -- because I didn't notice it until I pulled it out of the Amazon box and by then I had wheat particles all over the place. That's like having bug-attracting sand all over your kitchen. Original review: I love original Cream of Wheat. Makes a good, fast, reasonably healthy meal or snack (assuming it doesn't have something nefarious in it that hasn't been made public). It's also a food that is good to have around when someone is ill. Sometimes I like it plain (original), sometimes I like a little extra--fruit, syrup, or brown sugar. I couldn't find the original version in single-serve packets, otherwise I'd have preferred to buy the single-serve packets rather than the 28 oz box. The box I received was fully sealed all around. Which is good as I'm not a fan of bugs. It was a box filled with millions of teeny-tiny wheat particles. The problem with the box is the push-in, forever open spout. That's a big NO. There should be a metal (or plastic) and closable pour spout, like what's on my Morton's Salt container. Instead, unless I and others are extremely careful, there are wheat particles all over my kitchen.

I consider this a comfort food, the texture is exactly the same as regular cream of wheat. It cooks very quickly, which is perfect. For the amount you get, it’s a really good price, better than the price at the supermarket.

I have to cook for someone on a soft food diet after oral surgery. Cream of Wheat is perfect for my needs. I used to cook it by boiling the liquid first but now I start with cold water. A 4:1 ratio is about right (e.g., 4 cups water per 1 cup farina) cooked for at least 5 minutes on low heat. This is a quick meal and you can make it with milk, broth or water. Add a whole or scrambled egg for some extra protein. Enjoy!

it had grit in the mix which damaged a tooth

This is lovely comfort food. So easy to prepare.

Soooo good!
