Candy Stripes

IMG_4165Blog

Despite being cold for the whole second half of the day, I actually wake up pretty hot in the morning thanks to my giant down comforter. [Perhaps that means I should get in bed in the afternoon!?]

Thus, I haven’t really transitioned away from cold breakfasts yet.

SquaresBlog

This morning I made a bowl of yogurt topped with Whole Foods 365 Wheat Waffles cereal. I’m pretty picky when I buy cereals. The ingredient list must be super short and the sugars less than 10 grams. [No protein isolates or fake fiber allowed.] When I went shopping with Karen last week I helped her choose one and it was pretty fun to analyze a few different brands. These wheat waffles (aka generic brand Chex) fit the bill. Maybe I’ll have cereal with milk tomorrow!

IMG_4169Blog

Also in the bowl: chia seeds, dried cherries, banana, sunflower butter and a sprinkle of Hemp Plus granola.

Golden Moon Vanilla Mint tea on the side – love that flavor and the whiffs of vanilla that emerge

I solved that problem by baking, cooking and running the dishwasher. Record highs today in the 60s today, we’re actually headed to the zoo today. Have a wonderful day, the weekend is near!

    • KathEats says

      January 5, 2012 at 9:39 am

      Why do you need extra fiber? Anything whole grain should provide a natural amount. If you buy the kinds pumped up with inulin (aka Kashi GoLean) you might get unpleasant bowel symptoms. I used to buy these wraps years ago with tons of extra fiber and they were not kind to my GI tract! That’s when I started reading more about added fiber and decided it was a classic example of how companies take something good for you in nature and add it in copious amounts to other foods.

      I’d amp up the fiber naturally to a whole grain cereal with some chia or flax and fresh fruit!

        Thanks for this info, Kath! I was going to ask what you meant by “fake fiber.” Are there any other ingredients besides inulin we should look out for to avoid this?

          Here’s a good article on them!

          http://articles.latimes.com/2010/jan/11/health/la-he-nutrition11-2010jan11

          inulin, maltodextrin, polydextrose, soy hulls, oat fibers, sorghum fibers, chicory root

          These are “all natural” but I still don’t think they should be added to foods just for the sake of being able to put “high fiber” on the label. Like the article says, they are just fillers – they lack nutrients. I don’t think they are BAD for you because they are derivatives of real food, but I think yogurt and cereals with them cross the boundaries of real food

    Kath, do you take a multivitamin? Your comment about too much fiber caught my attention. I was just looking at my multivitamin and it the label says mega multivitamin. Looking at the DV % I’m wondering if I am getting too much of some vitamins and minerals by taking the vitamin in addition to my “healthy” eating. What is your experience or opinion with vitamins?

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      January 5, 2012 at 10:33 am

      I do take a multi, although I often do it every other day for that reason – because I eat well. But even when I use to log every bite when I was calorie counting, I wouldn’t hit the DV for many of the important things (like iron and calcium) so I think it’s a good idea to take one. Actually the more processed foods you eat (fortified everything – cereals, luna bars, etc.) the less likely you are to need one.

    I can do a cold breakfast any day, as long as it’s paired with a hot bevvy!
    If I do cereal, it’s definitely got to be on top of yogurt and have other sources of protein and substantial things for me to feel like it’s a meal! And a “serving size” of cereal is a joke otherwise!
    I bought my husband a box of Nature’s Path cereal on Monday, which he has eaten with milk the past few mornings- and I it’s almost empty. His idea of serving size is to fill the bowl, which is really about 3 “servings.”

    Hi Kath! Wondering what your take on the Paleo diet is (diet as in way of eating rather than strictly for weight loss)? I know you’re a big fan of whole grains, etc. so I was curious what your perspective is on eliminating those (or at least limiting them). My co-worker eats primal (similar to paleo with slight differences), so he avoids all grains and his diet is focused on protein (via grass fed meat, fish, eggs, etc.), loads of vegetables and fruit. He has done a lot of research about it and believes the stomach irritation caused by grains/flours/etc (whether you feel it or not) is detrimental over time. He’s not militant about it but follows that way of eating 90 percent of the time. We had a challenge at work where a handful of us followed his eating plan for a month.. It was tough at first not having oatmeal for breakfast, but after a few weeks I really felt amazing! I had a lot more energy and felt so much less bloated (even though I wasnt someone who rarely ate bread or processed foods to begin with)! I was sluggish the first few days at the gym but once my body adjusted to not being pumped up with sugars it performed better than ever. From a RD’s perspective, what are your thoughts on this?

      well i haven’t ever really eaten it so I can’t speak to the energy. But when I think about diets, I go back maybe 100-500 years, not millions, for answers. My grandfather was 92 when he passed away and healthy as a horse. My Uncle Mel is 101 (or 102!? I forget!) and also still very healthy. They both have eaten grains their whole lives.

      I also think that grains are plants that are full of nutrients – B vitamins, fiber, protein, phytonutrients – and I wouldn’t want to exclude those from my diet. My GI tract has never felt bad and I have tons of energy, so I don’t think I’d ever cut something out for the heck of it.

        I’m at work right now, so I can’t verify this, but I am 99% sure my jar of Trader Joe’s sunflower seed butter says “refrigerate after opening” on it. Why would it say that if it’s not absolutely necessary? I know I’ve seen that on other jars of more healthy-type (i.e. not Jif) nut butters as well.

        I’m all for spreadability when it comes to nut butter, but I tend to follow what the label says….

    When I was a kid, my mom bought only 3 types of cereals, Rice Krispies, Corn Flakes and Puffed Rice in a bag. BUT sometimes she would let my brother and I choose our own cereals, so that would mean, Honey Comb or Lucky Charms, Count Chocula, anything colorful and sugary. We would eat it all in one day, bowl after bowl or the Honey Combs we would eat by the handful like chips, until the whole box was done and empty. Mind you this only happened once in a blue moon, maybe twice a year.

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      January 5, 2012 at 2:34 pm

      Well oatmeal has protein and I make it with milk and serve it with peanut butter, so the answer is no because I never have oatmeal without protein! I think the trick to a satisfying breakfast is a variety of food groups (protein, carbs, fat) and not skimping on portions – you need to feel full for it to last until lunch.

      Well it’s hard for me to recommend them without being there in store.

      In general, anything like Chex, Cheerios, Shredded Wheat or bran/wheat flakes is great with simple ingredients. I tend to stay away from the $5/box organic brands, but many of them are made with real food. I also avoid anything with added protein/fiber (Kashi GoLean/Crunch, Fiber One, etc).

        thanks so much! I’ve been buying kashi for a long time, thinking that it was better for me than the other brands, but now I see that your choices are better!

        how much chia seeds and peanut butter do you normally put on top?

          It’s definitely not the worst out there – just not the most natural.

          I often add half a tbsp of chia and 1 tbsp of nut butter

    Just curious…. what kindof yogurt do you typically eat? Do you find your yogurt bowls hold you over?? I’m so afraid to stray from my oats w fruit n egg white bowls!

      I prefer either Whole Foods Organic Low-Fat or Stonyfield’s Oikos greek yogurt. Both hold me over extremely well so long as I put a lot on top of them

    I thought I was making an uber-healthy choice with Kashi GoLean and was so disappointed when I finally read the whole list of ingredients and discovered it contains protein isolates. Reading your blog has definitely inspired me to EAT REAL FOOD. My body is much happier for it. THANK YOU!

    Super interesting on your criteria for cereal! Generally, I’m pretty savvy when it comes to nutrition labels, but sometimes cereals throw me for a loop with their excess of fibers and syrups.

    Is there anything else in particular that you look for when it comes to cereal?

    So many times generic cereals are just as good as the brands and so much less expensive!

    Thanks for the advice on choosing cereals – I always focus on fiber content but I find a lot of brands seem to have a moderate amount of fiber and seem very similar and very few have a high fiber content (I usually am not a huge fan of these or get bored of them).
