Great way to start the day:
- 30 minutes of Dave Farmar Sun Salutation Flow #2 (love this one because it’s very hard and leaves me shaky in only 30 minutes)
- A sunny breakfast
- A Contest!
I give you me&goji (1 cup) with banana, blueberries and milk –
I had the opportunity to create a mix last week and came up with the KERF Krunch –
It’s a bit high in calorie for a 1 cup serving (300) but it is high in fiber and pretty good in protein, so you get a lot at once.
I really like the mix though! Y’all know that I love to mix cereals, so I took this opportunity to blend flakes, O’s, and granola – plus bananas and almonds. There were TONS of options to choose from, but I tried to keep it simple enough to appreciate the flavor combo. The best part are these dried bananas. I pictured them as crunchy chips, but they are chewy and sweet and OH-so-good!!
I was in a coffee mood, so I made a cup today too
Giveaway
So here’s your chance to try me&goji and help someone you think deserves a fun surprise in their life.
Leave a comment telling me about someone you know who deserves a special cereal mix and why, and you could each win a coupon to design a me&goji mix. You have by tonight at 8pm EST. Good luck!
I am off to work from home, to the gym around lunchtime, and then out with friends for Girls’ Night.
Holly (The Healthy Everythingtarian) says
WOOWOO for girls’ night!
Honestly, my mom deserves a Me&Goji mix. She is twice my age, in better shape than me and the best mommy a gal could ask for! Love ya mom!
Amy says
I think my mom deserves a special cereal mix. She is always running to the store and buying us healthy food and keeps the house stocked with fruit, bread and healthy snacks.
Annalisa says
I am a cereal purist by heart, however, my sister is a cereal mixer. She’s an RD and works a ton of hours at the moment. I think she would enjoy bringing something fun to work. I would like to make the perfect yogurt topping!
Mara @ What's for Dinner? says
Have a blast today/tonight!!
I think my fiance deserves a Me&Goji mix. He’s throwing caution to the wind, going back to school to be a teacher, and in the meantime, working part time to help support us.
Marci says
Def. My husband, He loves to try new cerals all the time, I think he would really enjoy mixing up his own to create something new that he hasn’t had before. Our 6 yr old daughter would think it was pretty neat as well.
Sara says
I think my sister deserves her own cereal mix. She’s really hard on herself about what she eats, and I think the chance to create her own cereal would make her feel good about what she’s eating.
Allison says
My husband! He has strong cereal preferences, but will grab whatever I buy because he tries to get the kids breakfast ready every morning to make my life a little easier.
Acadia Durham says
Hey Kath,
Good luck today!
Thought you and yours might enjoy a little silliness over at http://acadiadurham.blogspot.com… a post about all the Entirely Useless Items (shrink-wrapped, ready to nuke “Micro-Yams???”) available at your local grocery store. We should be thankful, really, that we have oh-so-many opportunities to stimulate the national economy, right?

Brianne says
My mama or my 22 month old would love this! My mom is big cereal eater and my baby loves to munch on pretty much anything 🙂
AmandaD says
My husband mixes everything together that I make, mostly dinners. So, I think that he would love to make a cereal mix! Plus, I love him to pieces and that’s why he deserves it.
greenbean says
my sister definitely deserves to win! we had our very first 1/2 marathon plans for september but she ended up breaking her foot on her way to a wine festival. she wasn’t even tipsy yet! she’s been stuck in the house, depending on others for rides since she can’t drive, and missing out on a lot of cool things to do. i really think she needs some sunshine!
Tammy says
My husband, Carter, deserves the most special cereal mix there is. He has been by my side for 14 years (we met in middle school) as I have struggled with and finally overcame an eating disorder. He loved me inside and out for all those years, and ultimately, he is the one who became my role model for healthy eating and balance. Pretty amazing, since he used to be overweight and I’m the one who inspired him to eat healthy! He began to eat healthy and lost weight, but he did it in a balanced, realistic way. It’s so neat that the tides turned and he became the teacher! Now he teaches me how to cook, how to achieve balance, and he encouraged me to go to an R.D. who helped me to fully recover! Carter continues to support and praise my progress every day.
Lisa says
When I was little, my dad used to “consolidate” the sad little crumbs of cereal that remained in our almost-empty boxes of Frosted Flakes, Froot Loops, Captain Crunch, Cheerios and Cocoa Puffs. Kath, while your cereal mixes are works of culinary art … these were just nauseating. I think it would be hilarious to let my dad pick out his own mix!
Emily (Healthy Fit Mama) says
My sister derserves her own cereal mix. She is 3 months pregnant and has very specific tastes right now! It would be great for her to decide exactly what was in her cereal.
Emily W. says
I may have to try that yoga class! 😀
What a great looking mix! I have heard of many custom cereal companies; but never this one, so I would love to try it out!
I think my brother deserves to have his own cereal mix. He is having a bit of a hard time right now and he loves his cereal, so I think this would add a little spark to his day!!
Thanks for the opportunity!
C-Lo says
My best friend from college deserves the mix b/c every morning we would laugh about how she would mix her cereals (i thought she was a little weird) jk. She just recently lost her job so I would love to cheer her up with this!
Anne says
My sister deserves a special cereal mix because she loves eating healthfully and trying new foods – and this would be a great way to do both!
Lindsay Lu says
My friend Katie really deserves her own cereal mix. She has the strongest will power of anyone I know when it comes to eating a very balanced diet! Such an inspiration!
Dana says
Hey!
I think my brother deserves a great cereal mix because he turned me on to joining a gym and he has had a difficult time lately with his wife leaving him. He is a great guy!
spinach girl says
Hey !
I can’ t believe that I read your blog (x3 times a day) x7, love it !
My boyfriend would love the granola, since he is too lazy to make oatbran in the mornings, so instead, he omits breakfast altogether 😛
Joanna says
My dad is starting to eat healthier and just discovered a love for Greek yogurt, so this would be the perfect mix-in for him!
Jennifer says
My little bald man deserves cereal mix. He is a healthy cereal fiend-eats it for breakfast, lunch and dinner! He can’t get enough. I think a healthy, custom cereal would make his morning routine something special.
Sarah says
My friend Vicky was just diagnosed with aggressive inflammatory breast cancer. There’s not a lot I can do to help her through this, but the fun of getting to design her own cereal mix would be a nice distraction from a really rough time.
I’ve never commented before, but I really enjoy your blog. You’ve even gotten me eating almond butter, something I previously thought I disliked. I was wrong.
april says
I love all your contests! My dad deserves to win some because he is now eating yogurt but he eats it with Cheerios.. nothing wrong with Cheerios but they have no staying power!
Rachel says
my fiance deserves a special mix because he always just rushes through the same breakfast every morning before work, he would really love a new surprise in the morning
zestycook says
I think zesty deserves the cereal mix! Either that or Nate from blog stalker 🙂
Alison says
My best girlfriend deserves a cereal mix because she’s just lost all her post-baby weight and is really getting into eating healthy and is a cereal lover to boot!
maren says
my mom deserves to try it because she loves cereal just as much as me!!!
Kat says
I think my mom deserves a special cereal mix because she is always getting “bored” with cereal in the mornings and when she was battling breast cancer this past winter/spring she often ate the same cereal for lunch and dinner too, so i think a new cereal mix would be just the thing to beat her boredom!
Katie says
My mom definitely deserves one. She has mixed cereals FOREVER (has cereal for breakfast every.single.day.), is health-conscious and needs a filling breakfast before going to her high-stress job.
Laura says
My sister deserves a mix, my Mom buys the most boring plain cereals or high sugar little kid kinds leaving my sister with terrible choices. I don’t live at home with them or else I would stock up that pantry!
[adam] & goji says
thanks for the great post, Kath!
all these stories are great and inspiring. Everyone could use a little pick-me-up these days!
If anyone has any questions about [me] & goji, they can e-mail me directly, [email protected] Happy Mixing!
sinCerealy yours,
adam
founder, [me] & goji
Nicole says
i think my dad deserves a special cereal mix! in the past two years (after a big health scare) he has devoted his life to being healthy and fit! he always starts his days off with some sort of cereal blend and he would really like it 🙂 thanks!!
Steph says
Hi Kath!
I would love to give one of these cereal mixes to my older sister. She not only practices yoga daily and tries to eat as healthy as possible, but she has 5 kids! I bet she could use some super cereal energy. =)
Hannah Hawley says
I would have to say my mom! She has been trying to keep away from wheat, oat, and soy and is having a tough time finding things that are really yummy tasting!
Kamaile says
I co-worker, Shelly, deserves a special cereal mix. With 10 year old twins and an 11 year old, ALL GIRLS, she needs her own Mom cereal!
Anne K. says
Love the KERF mix! I’d love to give a mix to my mom. She loves cereal, and she does so much for me and the family. It’d be a great treat for her.
Lisa says
Hi Kath!
I’ve heard a lot of blog rumblings about meandgoji lately and I’d like to vote for my very sweet and special Mom to receive a mix. She has IBS and has been suffering a lot more than usual from it. She can’t seem to find anything to eat that will won’t cause her pain. I’m sure she’d love to hand pick a mix that is nourishing and easy on the tum!
Thank you!
Lisa
Melissa says
My mom definitely deserves one. Cereal is one of her morning staples and I think it would be awesome for her to have something that was made especially for her.
Sarah says
I would love to win so I could let my dad mix his own cereal. He eats several bowls a day and frequently mixes different healthy cereals (as well as yogurts, berries, milks, etc.) to create his ultimate bowl. When I was little, he worked a ton but we’d always have breakfast together and call it our little “date.” It’s still a tradition and every time I am home, we like to sit together and eat breakfast and drink coffee together. I am too poor to send him a present for Father’s Day and was going to resort to a card. This would be the ultimate gift!
melissa says
I think my young son would love to have a cereal mix. Every time we go grocery shopping, he wants to get a breakfast cereal. We usually get ours at Trader Joe’s. I think his mind would be blown if he got to create his own mix!
Jess says
A dear friend from college is going through some rough times – a break up, moving (to Charlotte!) to start a new program, and is having two surgeries to deal with problems that have prevented her from running from quite some time. I’d love to send her a special mix to lift her spirits…and I know she’d enjoy it b/c she loves healthy food as much as I do!
Rebecca says
The bananas look awesome. My fiance deserves his own cereal mix because he will ONLY eat Raisin Bran! He needs to change it up and is so picky, but if the could chose his own mix perhaps we could get out of this Raisin Bran rut!
Jessica says
My best friend Kelly is a new mom with a 2 yr old and newborn. She’s well deserving and would really enjoy this special treat.
Becky says
Good Morning!
I would love for my friend Lacey to get to build her own mix. She and I have been on a journey together to exercise and eat better. I have been loving reading your blog and because of it have been transitioning to more whole food eating. My enthusiasm hasn’t transfered to Lacey, but I would love to introduce her to excellent quality food, and cereal would be a great start! Thanks!
Joanne says
My husband really deserves a special cereal mix. In fact, he would probably love KERF Mix. Why? Because he is in an EGGO waffle with PB rut. He needs a way to break out.
Great job on the cereal photo – I love blueberries so it immediately caught my attn.
Michelle says
My grandma would deserve a special mix just for her. She is a self declared cereal addict, but also an amazing woman. She lives her day to day life alone in florida and thinking about her having her morning breakfast alone is somewhat heart breaking, but she’s happy and never would want anyone to think otherwise. I know that a mix that was was made especially with her mind would give her that little joy in the morning 🙂
goji says
my friend officegirl DEFINITELY deserves it. she loves cereal and toils all day in an office drooling over food blogs (and occasionally working, i think). also, i owe her a big one, since she introduced me to KERF!
Hangry Pants says
Definitely my momma! She bought food for all five of her children for years and deserves something free!
Also, I wanted to tell you that I put those bananas in my own mix and I ended up picking them out and eating them all!!!! I loved how they were soft and chewy!!!!!
Maya says
My mom deserves a mix! I am living abroad for a year, and at the moment I need some help/guidance…which she still provides thousands of miles away. It feels so great to have a mom who always has your back and is there to help and give advice. I don’t know what I would do without her. She is so selfless and picking out her own cereal combo would be a good self-indulgence she rarely does!
Carrie H says
My sister Emily deserves this cereal! She’s doing an awesome internship but is living in the dorms (after several years in her own place) and could use all the easy-but-healthy food she could get!
Thanks, and have a great day!
Stacy says
I would love to share this idea with my grandmother. She has been the healthy influence on my life and she is about to come visit me for a few weeks. I’m pregnant and due in 1.5 weeks and I can’t wait for her to be here and help me out with our new little guy. Thanks for the opportunity!
~S
Meg C. says
My mom deserves her own cereal, because she is always eating weird things for breakfast because she “doesn’t have any good cereals” and I think she would love this!
Amanda in Pittsburgh says
I think that my boyfriend deserves this mix because he’s been trying so hard to stay on a healthy eating track! This would for sure motivate him!
Chaley says
My sister deserves this mix. She is doing NutriSystem after years of even unhealthier eating. I keep trying to convice her that REAL FOOD is the way to go! This might help to convince her!
Kristin says
My husband eats the same boring bowl of raisin bran every single day. I’d love to give him the chance to make his own cereal. Plus, he could use a kick in the butt to get in better shape.
Donna says
My wonderful husband is 4 months into his 2nd deployment to Iraq. He is getting very bored with the “chow hall” food. I would love the chance to surprise him with a cereal mix made personally by me in his next care package!
Sarah (Running to Slow Things Down) says
My sister deserves a Me&Goji mix. She was just married last year to a terrific guy…who is also allergic to nuts! So it’s sometimes hard to find a good breakfast that’s full of healthy fats, protein, fiber, etc. without the addition of pb (which my entire family was practically raised on…haha.)
It would be awesome if she could create her own mix so she can have a healthy breakfast that keeps her full and content.
(p.s. LOVE your KERF crunch creation…those bananas are too enticing! 😀 )
Alison says
My husband is definitely deserving of such a treat! He is so wonderful and has stood by me on my quest to be healthier – mind, body & spirit. He hasn’t complained one bit when I’ve tried new (healthier) dinners or asked that we leave a little later so I could get in a quick work out. But, he is also on a path for being in better health, and I think he would love to try this (as would I!).
Allison K says
I think my mom deserves the cereal mix. 6 years ago she changed her lifestyle and is super healthy and in great shape. She also has a condition called Diverticulitis, which makes it hard for her to eat many cereals, the ability to create her own would be great!
Lisa says
My doula! I’ve been trying to think up some fun, earthy gifts for her for being a great birth coach. I think this granola would fit in perfect with the homemade soaps and homemade vanilla that I plan to give her 🙂
Amanda says
My boyfriend is so sweet and selfless, that whenever we go shopping, he lets me pick out whatever cereal I want. I try to get him to choose a box for himself, but he knows how much I love breakfast and wants me to have whatever makes me happy. I’d love to give him something he truly enjoys – so what better way to do that than to let him create his own personal mix?
Michelle in SC says
I would have to say my mom. She is in her 60’s, just moved to a new city where she didn’t know a soul. She has since joined a gym, goes just about every day and tries different classes. She has also made friends and dropped her unsocial life for a new kickin’ social life. She also hopes to begin volunteer work at the local children’s hospital. I gave her a personalized granola mix (mismygranola) for mother’s day and she loved it. I know she would enjoy this!
Tracey says
Hi Kath! Thanks for another great giveaway!
I’d love to win a mix for my boyfriend who has just re-entered the world of exercising and healthy eating. He’s been training and taking classes at a gym, started juicing, and cooks these incredible veggie-filled meals every night. I’m so proud! He’s feeling so good about his progress, and I would love to give him a healthy “treat” to show him my support, admiration and love!
Have a great day!
Stacey says
I think my boyfriend would love to create his own cereal mix. There isn’t a cereal he doesn’t love and mixing them makes life even better. He is a breakfast lover!!
Leena says
You know what? Out of all the people I can think of who deserve their own custom cereal mix, I’m going with the one who’s worked the hardest for the past 6 months to kick butt and lose over 15 lbs — me. Selfish? Maybe. But I deserve to be =)
Jill says
I think my husband deserves one! He has been working extra hard at work lately and needs a little treat 🙂
Anna says
My sister, because she loves yummy new food products as much as I do! And she works hard. A lot harder than I do, haha.
Bec says
that cereal looks like a great combo!
Janet says
My mother in law…she lost her husband last year, and since then has not been taking the best care of herself – skipping meals, etc. She can use something special to pamper herself, and since it’s healthy it would be a double win!
[email protected] says
JUST got my me & goji yesterday, and I will be reviewing it on my blog on Friday. . . dried strawberries, cacao nibs, muesli. . . mmmmmmmm.
polly says
my friend Shannon deserves it! She is getting ready to have her FOURTH baby in just 2 weeks. She is a healthy beautiful mom and really lives for the Lord and for simple natural real stuff. Love her!
and love you too, Kath! 😉 XOXO
Faye says
I think you, Kath, deserves a treat cause you’re the one who introduced me to the idea! Love the bananas!
raybelle says
My husband could use a special cereal mix. He is studying for step 1 of his medical licensing boards. He takes them next week! I am sure some specialty cereal would be a good pre-exam breakfast (a good alternative to his usual granola).
eatlivetravelwrite says
My husband deserves his own cereal mix. He’s been working hard and also being amazing as I race through my crazy final month of teaching!
brandi says
those dried bananas look great!
My dad deserves a treat: He has lost 26 lbs since Christmas because I challenged him to just be a little healthier. We’ve had 3-4 heart problems in the family in the past couple of years (including a death, a surgery, and stents), plus other crazy illnesses and ER visits. He’s been doing amazing and could use a HEALTHY treat for all his hard work.
Lizzie says
My good friend is moving the SF soon and I would love to give her a fun going away presant. She LOVES cereal and would really enjoy the idea of mixing her own. Even if I don’t win I think I will buy her a gift certificate!
heatherfeather says
My mom is the best- my number 1 supporter, cheerleader, and shopping buddy. She is even willing to try my random healthy recipe “experiments” – which are not always for the faint of heart!!! 🙂
Seth says
My wife deserves a cereal treat. She has been working full time and going to school to get her Master’s degree. At the same time we both trained for and ran a mini marathon this spring. She has been working really hard and needs the nutritious boost to keep her going.
Royal says
Zack, my boyfriend totaly deserves the gift of yummy healthy goodness cereal. Right now he is currently stationed in South Dakota for the army and he is not eating the best of things. It would be super sweet to be able to send him this in a care package!
Katherine says
My sister would love to be able to make her own cereal, she recently moved out of my house and is living on her own and having trouble adjusting to being on her own. Being able to make her own cereal would be the pick me up that she needs right now!!
bobbi says
My friend Skinny Bride deserves a this yummy treat! She does so much for so many and I know she could really use a gift right now in her life because wedding planning is stressful!!!
April says
My trainer Sam deserves his own cereal mix. He keeps me focused and on task, and I KNOW he loves cereal. I’d love to see what combo he came up with.
Mellissa says
I would like my mom to win the mix, she and my stepdad have been going through some hard times lately with my stepdad not working much so she has been eating less healthy. I want to encourage her that she is worth it!
Kristen says
I definitely think my mom deserves some yummy cereal. She has been commiting herself to a healthier lifestyle and has lost 15 pounds. We are in this together and I love introducing her to healthy but at the same time, delicious food. Thanks for the great giveaway Kath! 🙂
Sarah says
My sister deserves it because after 2 kids, she still looks great and makes staying healthy her daily priority.
Lynette says
I think my daughter Jennifer so VERY deserving because she is working extremely hard to become a healthy eater. She has done so well over the last month at changing her eating and exercising habits. She would LOVE this!
K10 says
My friend Sha deserves this treat because she’s also committed to a new, healthy lifestyle and we’re recommending lots of new things to each other this summer.
Jean Mitchell says
I would nominate my sister! She loves eating a healthy, well balanced diet and love to exercise! She is a real inspiration to me of someone that has a healthy relationship with food and fitness!
She would get a kick out of making her own healthy cereal!
Thanks Kath!
Katherine says
My husband would LOVE the opportunity to make his own granola. He’s been alternating between the same two granolas from Costco for as long as I can remember and I’m always asking why he doesn’t change it up. His answer, “I’ve never found another granola I like as much, and it’s not like I can make my own easily!” He likes granola so much, he craves it for dinner sometimes – it’s the closest he’ll come to having breakfast for dinner 😉
Amanda's Eats says
I think my roommate Andi deserves some of this! She’s always trying to eat healthy, but she just told me the other day when we were discussing bugs how she found part of a roach in her cereal box and she’s been leary of purchasing cereal ever since! So I think she deserves she bug free healthy cereal 😛
Kimberly Lee says
My husband would be the person that I would say deserve his own cereal mix. He works had every day to provide for us – first at his “real” job as a project manager for a commerical contractor than on our family blueberry farms. His days span 4:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Then he still comes home and helps with the laundry, taking care of the puppy, or rubbing my back because I pulled a muscle.
And on top of it all, he is finding ways to eat healthier – you can imagine the type of food that is eaten in the construction field – and workout. I am so proud of him and so grateful to have him.
Liz says
My husband! He’d be like a kid in a candy store creating his own mix…it would be much better and healthier than the Special K with red berreis that he always eats!
Thanks for this, Kath!
Kate says
My husband definitely deserves it. He’s always looking for a tasty, healthy, CRUNCHY cereal.
Lainie says
My husband deserves his own cereal mix! I just found out I have a gluten intolerance and can’t eat many cereals anymore, so I rarely buy it. He misses the cereal, to say the least…and if he had this, he could still enjoy it!
Lauren B. says
I’d like to share with my cerealholic friends who don’t eat quite this healthy!
Eliza says
I think my sister deserves a mix! She works out 6 days a week even with a busy work schedule of working 12 hours day on her feet, she finds time to eat a healthy balanced diet and be the best sister a gal could ask for 🙂
She is a huge cereal person and I know she would down right appreciate and love a gojimix!
Nadine says
Have a great day working from home.
My mom is always looking for ways to add more fiber to her diet. The opportunity to design her own high fiber, tasty mix would be great!
Thanks!
sals says
my mom! she loves cereal for breakfast, doused with milk. She is very particular, and has perfected her own mix by combining several different boxes. I know she would love the chance to design her ideal combo!
Christina says
My girlfriend Pennie would love to try this! I hink she deserves it for being such a great friend and inspiration. She has gotten me to completely change the way I eat and treat my body –even gotten me to exercise! I have always been “thin”, but I was so unhealthy. I had really high cholesterol, and high blood pressure, before I was evn 40! Proving that you really are what you eat…
Pennie convinced me to eat “clean”, the best I can and she has been a great motivator. I even made myself a banana, blackberry, almond milk, and SPINACH smoothie yesterday — NEVER in my former eating life would I eat spinach let alone drink it.
Would love to share this special treat with Pennie as a “thank you” for giving me a healthy life…
Kristen says
I have a friend, Patrick, who is a Burmese refugee living in Knoxville now. He has been through a lot, as you can imagine. He doesn’t like super sweet foods, but they do eat grains and fruit! He always falls under the category of “deserving” in my mind for the way he is making the most of his situation!
Rachel in NC says
I would like to give the coupon to my (new) husband! He eats cereal for breakfast every morning, and I would like to see hiim eat something a little healthier than normal…
🙂
Margie says
I would love to treat my sister to this type of cereal. She’s always on the go!
Tina says
My best friend who travels constantly could really use this. It’s perfect for the car!
Cyndi says
HI Kath! My fiance Tom has been trying to lose some weight but can’t break out of old routines. He needs a cereal he is excited to eat in the morning so he starts the day in a healthy way! It’s also a great snack, which is his biggest diet dilemma. Thanks for the opportunity!
Casey says
My friend and I recently started a blog together – and I know she would love this just as much as I would. It would make for a great post!!
kim says
I would love this for my fiance! He’s been steadily changing to a healthier lifestyle with eating and biking, but he really REALLY needs a cereal makeover. This would be perfect for him to make his own healthier mix, as apple jacks aren’t exactly ideal.
Steph says
my MOM!!! She is always running around like crazy making sure everyone has everything they need. I would love to give my mom the chance to give herself something, just the way she wants it! She loves taking the opportunity to try a new food and to be healthy. My mom deserves it!
Laura says
I have to go with the majority (and cliche) answer of my mother! She is very hardworking, and often does not take the time to prepare healthy, nutritious meals for herself. By creating her own, nutritious cereal from me&goji she would be able to get a great kick start to her day!
Ada says
I believe that my friend Lauren deserves the cereal mix. She recently graduated from a nutrition program and received her RD certification. She constantly enrolls in races and works extremely hard. She motivates me to put my best effort into workouts and maintain a positive spirit.
Erin says
My parents deserve their own me&goji mix. They recently decided to take control of their health – they started eating much healthier, exercising regularly, and have lost almost 40 pounds together, all while my mom has been coming back from surgery on her foot.
My parents work incredibly hard but always find time to support and help my sisters and I whenever we need them. Not to mention that they’re paying for my upcoming wedding!
I just adore my parents, and I know they would love this mix!
Stephanie says
My little brother deserves a mix! He is all about cereal and healthy eating, and he is always putting together great combinations of food that you would never expect. Plus, he just finished a very tough quarter at UCLA – go Rob!
Stephanie says
My mom deserves the award for this. She’s an inspiration, I can only hope that when the time comes, I’ll be as great as a roll model as she has been!
Michelle says
My mom definitely needs a fun surprise like this in her life. Sharing the cereals with myself and my brother often leave her with choices she doesn’t really like…Fruity Pebbles for my bro, Heart to Heart for me…she deserves a customizable one just for her! 🙂
Shawna says
My adorable man does, I am always picking the good stuff out of the cereal so he should have one of his own!
Mary says
I’d want my brother to try a Me&Goji mix. He’s trying to eat healthier, loves cereal, but doesnt love the taste of the commercail brand “healthy” cereals. I think giving him the opprotunity to mix his own healthy mix would be a real treat for him.
Emilie says
I choose my mom–she has always been a healthy inspiration to me and has helped me to eat well my entire life. Plus, for so long she provided me with delicious meals and it would be wonderful to be able to provide her with one! Recently, when I mentioned that I needed to find an alternative to oatmeal in the morning (it’s just too warm out these days for a hot breakfast!) she told me how much she loves cold cereal 🙂
mags says
i would give my best friend who is also a bridesmaid in my wedding (july 11!) the mix because she has been the BIGGEST help and i love her dearly. she is a super healthy and clean eater and would LOVE to create her own mix!
conny says
My super awesome sister, who works tirelessly to share her love for farming and organic food with city kids in San Francisco! She would love this since she’s always on the go!
Sarah says
A very close friend of mine, Jackie, deserves the Cereal Mix – because we both LOVE to mix cereals! In fact, in my desk drawer right now, I have a bag with four different kinds. And she and I both have a glass jar on our counters with a mix of at least 4 cereals! We are true cereal junkies:)
Thanks:)
kathie says
yummy! i think my 9 year old daughter deserves her own goji mix. she just finished 4th grade and this will be the 5th year she’s finished with top marks in all subjects (all A’s for3rd/4th grades, they don’t letter grade K-2.) and she eats a granola mix with vanilla yogurt almost every day for lunch!
Kelly says
I just ordered this for my boss’s son-in-law who is in Afganistan. I would LOVE to be able to send one of his teammates one!!!
rose says
My mom! I’m not sure she knows that things like this exist so I think she’d have fun creating her own mix!
Alli W. says
Definitely my best friend! She is working her butt off for a terrible boss, but the economy is too rough to quit. I, meanwhile, am getting off easy by being in school. She absolutely needs it!
Kati says
My mom deserves this mix! She is currently doing Weight Watchers and told me just this morning that she’s lagging a bit and needs a motivational boost. What fun to get to design her own cereal mix! (I might enjoy it too) ;>
Rita says
I would give it to my mom because it will give her a chance to fall in love with cereal. She has always eaten sweets for breakfast this will help her reinvent her breakfast routine.
Nicole says
I think my mom deserves her own goji mix. It was her birthday yesterday and I’d love the chance to be able to help her try something new and healthy! She has always been there to support me with my healthy eating and i’d love to give her a special treat to thank her!
Eunice says
My mom definitely deserves this cereal mix. She always tries to mix up our cereal at home, but my sister hates it when she does that. So this gives her a chance!
Megan (The Runner's Kitchen) says
My sister deserves a cereal mix – she just broke up with her boyfriend and she could use some happy carbs 🙂
Your morning bowl of fruit + grains looks yummy!
LisaM says
My mom deserves the cereal coupon because she always buys the cereals she knows my dad and I like. My mom deserves to choose her own favorites, and creating a custom mix would be perfect!
Alison says
My best friend, Jackie deserves a mix! She is going through a very tough time right now in her personal life. I think the cereal would be a cute way to remind her to take care of herself during this rough patch.
Siiri says
My mom deserves a goji mix for beating breast cancer! She took good care of herself and ate well. She loves these kinds of cereals!
Stephanie says
My husband b/c he has the same cereal for breakfast and could benefit from adding another healthier cereal to his selection. 🙂 Although after reading #101 (Kristen’s) I hope she wins the cereal for her friend! Good Luck.
Heather @ Health, Happiness, and Hope says
What an awesome giveaway! How to to create your own cereal!
My older brother would DEFINITELY deserve this. He’s in college and so busy, but ALWAYS makes time to eat healthy and stay active. He’s always been so supportive in my life, and he’d LOVE creating his own cereal!
lora says
I think that my grandpa deserves it most. He is right now finding out whether his cancer from 19 years ago has returned, and yet he is as happy as a clam still. He is the one person I know who doesnt let life get to them. I love him and he would love to add some Goji to his morning routine.
The Healthy Hostess says
Yum! I would make a special cereal for my mom! She deserves it!
🙂
Erica says
Hey Kath! Sounds like a wonderful morning 🙂 I would like to give this to my Grandma. She has been having a lot of health problems lately and could use some cheering up!
Yussy says
My hubby!!!! He LOVES mixing cereals! He buys three different kinds (usually go lean crunch, go lean & heart to heart) and mix the whole thing in a huge bowl and store the mix in big zip-lock bags. I think the opportunity of mixing his own cereal would like heaven for him! Have fun tonight! =)
j says
My roomie Lindsay definitely deserves it because she loves cereal and is always making her own granola/trail mix mixes. She would love this!

Sarah says
My gluten-free boyfriend! He used to be a cereal-lover, but had to give up a lot of the “fun stuff” when he was diagnosed with Celiac’s (corn flakes and rice krispies only take you so far!) He’ll be able to make a gluten-free mix with lots of fun, filling add-ins to get him through our long weekend runs!
Kristin says
I love me some cereal! However, my daughter deserves to win because she has been working so hard at learning how to make good choices. A new, yummy cereal would show her that not all good for you food has to taste blah!
Anna says
Hi Kath,
Thanks again for all of the great giveaways you offer! My sister deserves a great mix. She has a super-restrictive diet due to allergies, and she’s in college without a kitchen. An awesome cereal mix would be the perfect breakfast, lunch or dinner for her!
Katie says
I would pick my husband, he works hard and LOVES cereal! My great guy deserves a treat!
Lauren says
Without a doubt, my sister deserves her own cereal mix. Not only is she sweet, hard working, and health conscious (she is studying Nutrition Sciences, and is one of the most studious and inquisitive students I’ve ever known), she is also pregnant! She told me that she has been having major cravings for cereal; I know that she would be so excited to customize one to her specifications!
Cassie says
I think that my best friends mother deserves because she has been on a weight loss journey and is always asking me for breakfast ideas and this would be PERFECT for her. Plus shes just an amazingly awesome woman who I love so much!
tangie says
i think my boyfriend deserves some me and goji. he’s a big meat and potatoes guy and definitely needs something different.
Brooke says
My friend, annie, deserves this special suprise cereal. She is a stay at home mom of 3 who babysite, volunteers all her free time on a yoga advisory board, church sunday school, school board, etc. the list goes on. She never complains, and is trying to lose weight and run, on top of her crazy schedule.
Carrie says
Would have to be my friend Amanda. She’s got more energy than any mom has a right to have, and she’s currently channeling it into a brand-new not-for-profit effort to improve nutrition in our community (http://eatrightracine.org/ ).
JT says
I think my “chef” aka husband deserves a mix because I never leave him enough of one cereal and poor thing is always mixing leftovers of cereal from our pantry and this way he can make his own mix to really enjoy his breakfast.
nicole Hoskens says
my boyfriend needs this he eats so much junkfood its crazy i want to teach him that yummy food is healthy food.
Carly says
Normally, I’d say me, since it is my birthday, but I think my brother-in-law deserves it – he just graduated from nursing school and is in the middle of clinicals, which means he’s usually working 18 hours shifts, 5-6 days a week.
Juls says
my boyfriend! he is OBSESSED with mixing cereals just like you 🙂 And I love him, so he deserves it! lol – i know i am so cheesy!
Melissa G says
I think my boyfriend deserves it. He is getting his doctorate in Psychology to help brain injured patients, and completely poor living off his student loans. He LOVES cereal too and this make your own mix would make his day!
Amanda4Sensei says
I think my mom deserves some me&goji. She has been trying to lose weight for years now and has FINALLY started taking the right steps to better health and fitness. I can see how unhappy she is with the amount of weight she has gained over the years. I have been trying to help motivate her to start this lifestyle change of health and slowly but surely she is starting!! I am so proud of her and want her to continue on the path to living a healthy lifestyle. She has done so much for me, its the least I can do to help her be happy!
Jenny says
My brother deserves it–he just finished some summer classes and graduated from college! I am so proud of him and I know he loves cereal as much as I do!
Emily (The Experimentarian) says
My husband definitely could use a fun little surprise like this! He eats just plain oatmeal, cold, with milk every morning–he doesn’t even microwave it or anything! He is always such a good sport with all of my culinary experiments, and it would be great to let him have one of his own!
Jennifer says
My husband deserves his own cereal mix. He grew up in a house where his mom made hot breakfast for him every single day and he rarely ate cereal. Now that he’s an adult he’s discovered that cereal can be quick, easy, taste good and good for you. Now he’s hooked and I’m relieved because I don’t feel pressure to live up to the standard set by my mother in law!
Marvyl Ginter says
My sister in law would totally need this cereal. She is the cutest when it comes to really trying to be a better and healthier person. Unfortunately her choices fall short a few times as she is “taken in” by the claims that something is healthier and better for her just because it says so on the box. At least I know that this delish and oh so healthy looking cereal WOULD be good for her!
Ciao
Danielle says
My mom deserves some special cereal for sure. She works so hard and helps me with everything I need. She’s a super hero!
Amanda says
Great contest!!
My boyfriend definitely deserves a custom-made cereal mix. I have FINALLY convinced him that eating breakfast is important in so many ways, but he has yet to find that favorite “go-to” breakfast like oats in the cold weather has become for me! Maybe with a customized mixture he will be satisfied!!
Emily L. says
My best friend, Anne, lives in SF. I live in Miami. We never get to see each other, but we talk all the time.
I worry a little about her, because she’s going through a rough time right now. I’d love to brighten her day with a customizable cereal coupon. That is the kind of thing that just makes her so happy!
Stephanie says
My coworker and I would both love to create our own mix! Each day we eat breakfast at our desks at work together, and cereal is great b/c it can be left in our drawers– to mix with milk in the morning, or eaten dry as an afternoon snack. yum 🙂
Lee says
I have a friend who was recently diagnosed (about a year ago) with a neurological condition. I don’t want to get into too many details on the internet. She’s trying to clean up her diet in the hopes that it’ll slow the progression of her disease. I think she needs the cereal!
Amy13 says
My friend Sara deserves to the coupon…I am dragging her along with me as I train for my (our) first marathon, and she could definitely use her own cereal mix as motivation to keep training with me (since I’m pretty sure she’s sick of me singing cheesy pop tunes at the top of my lungs when we’re out running together!).
mama says
I think my mom…shes been on a diet her whole life and needs real food to help kick start a new lifestyle!!
Laura says
My husband deserves a special mix. He’s a big cereal fan and I think he would benefit from stepping outside his comfort zone of Honey Nut Cheerios.
Cheerio!
-L
meghan says
My sister – she lives in Turkey and often misses plain old American food, such as granola. She would love to have a mix all her own!
Today is her 30th birthday too!
ann says
I think my husband deserves this mix because he is trying so hard to change his ways and get healthy.
Thanks for the great blog.
Ann
Julia C says
I would give it to my sister who is always inspiring me by what she eats!
Jen P says
I think my Dad would love to make his own cereal. He ate Total everyday of my childhood, and I haven’t seen him eat cereal much at all the last few years. I think it would be great for him to get back into cereal!
Tiff says
My husband would love to win the cereal. He’s the one who tries to keep me on track with eating healthy!
Fancy says
My finance deserves this mix! He is NOT a healthy eater, and I am trying everything I can do to change his eating habits before the wedding! Giving him the chance to “design” his own healthy cereal would really help the cause 🙂
Molly says
My sister! Today is the 10 year anniversary of her first heart surgery, when she was only 14. Cereal is her favorite food and the only thing she can eat when her medicine makes her sick.
Hannah says
I think my sister deserves the me&goji cereal. For over 4 months now, she’s been trying to improve her diet and get in shape. She’s been exercising at least three times a week–going to the gym, swimming, running. She’s been a wonderful role model for me and a really great motivator. Because she has a limited budget, however, her diet is limited and not full of variety. I’d like to surprise her with this awesome food invention =] She’d really enjoy it.
Jessica says
My son deserves this no doubt! He is certainly a MIXER of all things food related. When I mix my breakfasts I cannot keep him out of my bowl (with his Lightning McQueen spoon!) He would love this!
Samantha says
I think my husband deserves this mix! Though we are on a very tight food budget with him being in the milirary and me a full time student he always makes sure I get everything I need in order to start my new healthy lifestyle before anything he needs 🙂
Heather says
My mother in law deserves a special mix. She has had some MAJOR health problems this last month and has decided to take control of her life and her health. I think picking her own mix would go a long way towards helping healthier eating.
AutumnTao says
My fiance deserves a surprise. To my delight, he is health conscious, and I am so grateful. He would really enjoy making his own mix.
Melissa says
My husband because he’s having surgery tomorrow 🙁
Sarah says
Hi Kath,
What a great contest. So nice to make us think of others! I think my sister deserves to mix her own cereal. She has been an inspiration to me as I have worked to get healthier. She is a dancer, massage therapist (or will be in a few weeks), a bartender, and soon to be a triathelete! She is very healthy, but I know she would never treat herself, so I think I should!
Kayla B says
That looks soo good!
I think my boyfriend deserves some me&goji cereal because he has lost 46 lbs since the beginning of March! He’s still working on getting to his goal weight and learning what foods are best for him. I’ve been trying to help him learn to pick healthy foods and he’s getting there. But he still relies on me to make sure we’ve got good stuff for him to eat. I know he would really enjoy getting to design something healthy to snack on.
Priyanka says
My husband and I are recent granola fans. I think my husband deserves this granola because he is not a big cereal fan like cheerios/ raisin bran etc, but granola is something he enjoys!!!
ellie says
my aunt- she has been a rock for me the past few years and such a great source of support. She was diagnosed with cancer last week and starts chemotherapy today- she is 6000 miles away from me I live in the UK and she lives in the US) but something she could fit tasty delicious nutrition in with low-volume might help her keep her strength up during treatment <3
Ellen @ Peace in Motion says
My mom has just started her weight loss journey, and I think this would be perfect for her 🙂
Erica says
Great contest, Kath! My bff, Michelle, could definitely use some me&gogi cereal! She is a wife, mother, and a nurse practitioner who gives more of herself than she has sometimes to her patients and family. She loves cereal and I think she would love a chance to maker her own! And so would I!! teehee
Katie Reeder says
My husband deserves the me&gogi cereal because he is trying to live a healthier life and one way to start is incorporating breakfast into a daily routine! He is the most loving, supportive — awesome — husband and friend a gal could ask for and I would love to support his healthy lifestyle goals!
Paige says
My Mom really deserves to mix up some super cereal. When I was younger, I remember thinking that it was really strange that my mom would sometimes eat cereal for lunch or even dinner…Now, I know why…because it’s awesome!!!! My mom works super hard, and is always taking care of everyone else before she takes care of herself. I would love to surprise her with this!
Flutterby says
My ever-lovin’ hubby — he LOVES cereal!
Rebecca says
My Mom definitely deserves some me & goji because she works her butt off all the time. She is a nurse, and she is also raising a very challenging special needs child.
Melissa says
My mom deserves some delicious cereal. She loves to snack on healthy foods, this would be perfect for her. She’s really helped me out a lot lately emotionally and financially!
miche98 says
I think I deserve this the most, since I am the one who emphasizes healthy eating in my family 😉 I will make sure my husband will taste it.
jess says
my roommate because she hardly ever tries new cereal bc of budget concerns, but loves granola, and has much to learn!
Caitlin says
My sister deserves to try this for sure. She just graduated college after working working so hard and deserves a treat to look forward to in the morning…plus I’d have to make her share:)
Karina says
I think my mom deserves this cereal because she does so much for my entire family. She cooks for the entire family and makes sure we always have nutritious meals in the house, and is always on the go so sometimes she doesn’t have enough time to eat a proper breakfast (it usually is just a bowl of cereal). Maybe something as nutritious and yummy as this would be a treat for her 🙂
Lanita says
My husband loves all kinds of cereals — especially the kinds loaded with sugar. Give him some Lucky Charms and he’s in heaven. I’d love to customize a cereal that tastes just as yummy to him but was a bit more healthy!
laura says
my brother deserves to try it because she loves cereal just as much as me!!!
thanks
Jessie says
My best friend Jenn deserves the mix of cereal. I don’t get to see her as much since we live 13 hours away from each other (I had to miss her wedding and now I’ll miss the birth of her baby) but just recently I went home for vacation and saw her a ton. We decided we both were unhappy with our weight and eating habits and decided that even if we were apart from each other we’d find a way to help each other out. She suggested showing our food diaries to each other so that the other person can see what was eaten and spot bad trends that the other might not. I created a WordPress for it, and it’s really helping, and we’ve only been going at it for a week. I know it won’t go to waste on her because she is a cereal fiend, haha!
Coley says
My Mom, because she is trying to lead a more healthy lifestyle, but she is so busy with all her commitments and her job she would never do this for herself!
laura says
my brother deserves to try it because she loves cereal just as much as me!!!
thanks
you
:-)))))))))))))
Allison says
my 7 year old – we just found out she has celiac disease. It would be fun for her to create her own gluten free blend! Thanks.
Brooke says
My sister deserves to make her own cereal mix. She is currently working hard to put herself through college. She is a great inspiration to me and helps me stay on track to living a healthy lifestyle. We even ran side by side to complete our first half marathon together.
Organic Girl aka Ashley H says
I think my grandma would really like this. She has just started investigating healthy eating. She is always so proud to tell the healthy eater of the family, me, her new improvements. I think this would be a great way to help her along her journey. 🙂
Grammie2Maddie says
My Daughter in Love deserves this mix – she eats ‘green and healthy’. She hurt her leg badly last week and has been unable to exercise – she wants to so badly. She needs the mix to cheer her up!
Kristin says
my boyfriend! he’s a cereal lover and always looking for something new and yummy!
Beth says
My friend Aaron and I love KERF!! She’s my old college roommate who lives in Canada and I have since moved to DC so we are faaar away. She’s in town for a visit from today – next Tues. and I would LOVE to surprise her with some custom cereal from our favorite site!
Becky says
My husband deserves a specially made mix. He is an all around great guy who loves some great cereal:)
Donna says
KERF!

I just want to let my dad to feel he is appriciated with a lovely gift….. fyi your giveaway is perfect!!
Thanks Kath!! 🙂
Becky B says
My Mom!!! She loves cereal but cannot find a good combination to help curb hunger. With the right mix I think she would love it!
Meredith (Pursuing Balance) says
Glad you had such a good start to your day! I think my boyfriend deserves this fun cereal. He just moved back after 6 months away at an internship, and I’m sure starting his days with a yummy bowl of cereal will help him get off on the right foot to readjusting to life here 🙂
Jennifer says
I desewrve the mix dammit. I work hard enough for a custom-made cereal.
Robin says
My mom does – just because she is the best! She also likes to exercise and having her own cereal mix would be great for a breakfast post workout!
Victoria says
I think my little sister deserves a delicious treat. She is under lots of stress at work but still has time and energy to be supportive of me as I go through my first pregnancy. She is the perfect sister and will be a brilliant aunt.
Stephanie says
I think my boyfriends mom deserves a delicious treat-she has been trying very hard to eat healthy and has recently lost some weight…its a good start and i am proud of her
Diane says
My daughter loves cereal…for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! She’s working full-time and going to grad school.
Sara D. says
My husband! After finding out that he had borderline high cholesterol in January he has been eating oatmeal every morning for breakfast. He desearves a change
Liz C says
I think my husband deserves a mix. For one thing, he is working two jobs while finishing up school to be an air traffic controller. A highly stressful job. Also, over the past year of our marriage, he’s really turned his life around in terms of being healthier. Not only does he work out, but he’s eating better too. One of his favorite breakfast foods is cereal, so the mix would be perfect for him.
Maggie says
My dad! He rocks my socks. I miss him a ton. He’s been an amazing healthy role model for me and my siblings.
kz says
My honey deserves the ceral mix- as it’s one of his favorite foods- and he always eats whatever healthy veggie food I make (even though he ain’t a vegetarian) and washes all the dishes withough fail.
Sam says
My sister- she just gave birth to a beautiful baby girl 3 months ago and she’s working hard to get back into shape and at the same time be a great mom. She deserves a special treat!
Susan says
My friend Jules deserves a mix. She is an amazing woman who juggles the usual work, marriage, and parenting, but with a twist. One of her children has been seriously ill for years. Jules gives her all to taking care of her children, maintaining a marriage, and doing a great job at work. She deserves a healthy surprise/treat!!
Kelley says
I would send the mix to my mom. She decided at age 50 to get into shape, and now she’s training for a triathlon this summer! She looks great! It would be a nice healthy treat for her. 🙂 Thanks!!
tracy says
My 10 year old daughter, Bridget, because she’s always interested in the crazy healthy foods I eat!
Shawnee says
During my formative years as a child, I grew up as an only one. My mom eventually remarried, providing me with a step sister. Now, again, at the age of 25 I find myself sisterless — technically. However, I have been blessed with two amazing friends; both of them only children. We’ve joked around calling ourselves sisters, but only recently I’ve come to cherish the fact that, yes we really are sisters.
Two days ago I found out that one of these girls’ parents are potentially splitting up after 27 years of marriage. She is absolutely emotionally defeated. Originally, she sent me an email asking for prayer for her family and that she had the most devastating news. It was at that point I felt the big sister in me emerge.
It’s hard living two hours away from her. I can’t just rush to her side. I sent her three emails, called her once and commented on her Facebook status, just so she knew I had been thinking about her. I cried for her and prayed for her. I couldn’t concentrate at work. That is, until she finally confided in me what was happening. For all I knew she or someone she was very close to was dying.
Though we’ve been friends for nearly 9 years, I’ve never felt that bond – that sisterly bond. It’s made me reflect on my friendship with my two best friends. It’s a friendship that I never want to take for granted.
I think my friend is in need of designing a me&goji mix. For one it would take her mind off of things, if only for a few minutes. Also she is an organic food loving – marathon runner. This ordeal has upset her so much she has decided not to run the Portland marathon. Maybe with a little cheering up, she’ll change her mind.
P.S. Sorry this turned out to be an essay. But, thanks for this contest! 🙂
Ami Marie says
My wonderful husband so deserves a personalized cereal mix! The poor guy has to deal with me forcing him to add Fiber One to all of his cereals to make sure he gets enough fiber. It would be really nice for him to have the control to create his own healthy blend!
jessie says
I was think my momma would enjoy this. She supports herself and my dad (she works at Time Warner in Charlotte) because my dad is unable to work and yet she still finds time to workout and try to maintaina healthy lifestyle. She also pushes me to do the same and I love her and think she deserves a nice treat.
Lauren A. says
my mom deserves this mix because she is struggling with body image issues and her eating habits. lately, she’s been trying to skimp on her breakfasts in effort to lose weight, but she ends up eating more later in the day. i’ve been trying to tell her that all she needs to do is combine one serving of each of whole grains, dairy, fruit, and nut butter (for protein and fat), and she’ll have a much easier time controlling her appetite for the rest of the day! thank you for this wonderful giveaway!
Melissa @ For the Love of Health says
Great breakfast! And awesome giveaway!!
My mom deserves to mix her own cereal. She never really gives herself fun treats and always does nice things for others. She would love this. She is definitely a foodie 🙂
Gina G says
amazing giveaway! i believe my dad deserves the mix because he goes to work all day at the restaurant and still manages to always cook me and my brothers a great dinner when my mom is at work, and most of the time has to cook even when she is not working. hah
thanks for this opportunity!
Alicia Offutt says
My best friend Beth who lives 488 miles away deserves some love in the form of amazing cereal for a thousand reasons.
Since explaining all of them would take too long, top 3 are:
1.) She talked me into signing up for a spring marathon which we just finished May 26th!! She made a PR of 4 hours!!
2.) She LOVES healthy food. Combine this with her intense passion for baking and she is a crazy cookie, cake, muffin, you-name-it she’s-made it officionado.
3.) She is practically my twin and since I know I would love this a ton, I know that without a doubt this would make her month.
Matt says
My GF (and I) ‘need’ this mix because it will provide the perfect barrier between my beloved cereals and her mouth!
laura says
My husband would eat cereal morning, noon, and night, but our limited grocery budget makes it only a special treat. He’s been such a trooper to eat oatmeal with me!
Kelly says
My dad definitely deserves and would love a custom mix…it’d also be a great little father’s day suprise. 🙂
sonia says
My dear husband to who I try to inspire to eat healhy everyday by doing so myself.
Deva says
My sister totally deserves to win this. She loves cereal, and is just wrapping up her first year in school, so she needs some fuel for the summer time to keep her going.
Kim says
Great giveaway! I think my mom would enjoy mixing her own cereal and she deserves it since she is always looking out for everyone else. She also just had surgery on her ankle and has to be off of it for 4 weeks so this would definitely cheer her up. : )
Melanie Thurber says
My son, who is nine and is a complete cereal fanatic. He doesn’t yet know that he is health conscious as he compares the sugar and sodium content on all of the cereal. He would love to concoct his own mix! Thanks for the opportunity:)
fig says
My friend Alyssa and I deserve the chance at making the mix. We are both a bit flaky, sweet, a bit nutty-we are always there for each other in a *crunch*…
Yet we are very different-and have our own distinct flavor! Chose us!
Tracy says
My co-worker Jenny loves cereal and this would be the perfect gift for her!
Suzanne says
My husband could definitely use this cereal mix. He eats the same cereal every single morning – plain Cheerios. (He chooses to do this!). But, it would be nice to give him some variety!
🙂
Lynda says
My daughter, Mackenzie, is a cereal eater and would love her own mix
Katie says
My lil sister! She just graduated from High School and is a healthy eater who is worried about gaining the Freshman 15. I’d love to set her up with a yummy cereal mix she can choose from so she has a healthy breakfast option! Plus she is a crazy cereal mixer like me, we sometimes split boxes so that we can have many mixing options and so that whole boxes won’t go bad.
emily says
I think my sister Eliza deserves the cereal. She works every morning at 5 am at a restaurant that doesn’t have many healthy options for breakfast. I know how much she appreciates good food and your website so I think she would REALLY love this surprise!!!
Lisa says
My mom. She has suffered with food allergies/intelorances for the past 15 years and watches her diet very carefully. She would love to make her own cereal!
Lauren says
I think my sister deserves a Me&Goji mix! She loves cereal, especially mixing and matching different combinations. She’s recently moved out of state to put herself through school and is living on a fixed income, so she is not always able to buy her faves. She definitely deserves it, so thank you for the opportunity to nonimate her =)
Brooke says
My sister. Just because I love her and she is a great sister and mom and wife and has helped me so much in life.
Katelyn says
Wow, I don’t know how to choose. So many great people in my life deserve this cereal mix. I will have to go with my mom. She has done so much for me, and would deserve this opportunity to eat healthy with a fun twist.
Kel says
My sweet husband deserves this for putting up with me! Plus, he has finally realized that his blue cheese bacon cheeseburgers and fench fries are not good for him. This would be a great healthy option for him.
Jessica says
My mom! She’s had a really hard time recently – got laid off, just after she finally got her BA degree, and diagnosed with diabetes. I’m trying to teach her about health now. There’s been lots of grocery store trips and learning about nutrition and reading labels and taking the time to cook. I bet she’d love to make this every morning!
p.s. i love your outdoor breakfasts!
Justin says
I think my gf Emily deserves the Me & Goji mixed cereal. She is the best gf ever! She always makes me breakfast and has me trying all those wacky oatmeal combos you girls all love. She is the perfect candidate for this cereal mix because she loves cereal a lot!
Jessica says
I think that my boyfriend deserves Me and Goji cereal because he needs some variation in his strictly oatmeal breakfasts 🙂
Katy says
Hi Kath!
My friend Sarah deserves a Me&Goji mix because she loves loves loves cereals. I used to give her a hard time when we lived together because she would take over the kitchen at breakfast- raisins, 3 types of cereal, banana, milk, granola, nuts- all on the counter. 🙂
Caitlin says
My Mom, who is a slender and healthy person to begin with, has been having some serious cholesterol problems of late. She recently – with her doctor’s blessing – decided to go off her meds and try to instead fix it with a 90% vegan diet. I am sure she would love to create a mix to help her along the way! Thanks Kath!
Blair says
I am a dietitian who works with high school girls on weight management and healthy eating. One of the young girls I work with has been working so hard to recover from an eating disorder and re-gain the weight she lost. One of the foods she now loves and is no longer afraid of is granola based cereals…she deserves the cereal mix!
Runeatrepeat says
My fiance, Ben, deserves a cereal mix because he only eats 2 breakfasts – cereal or Carl’s Jr. Breakfast burgers. Cereal is so much better for him – I need to encourage it any way I can!
Kelsey says
i would give a mixed cereal creation to my dad, who is obsessed with captain crunch! hahaa
Christina says
I would love to be able to create a cereal for my dad. I am home from college for the summer and noticed yesterday that he has been feeling down. He has multiple sclerosis and he was saying last night how it is becoming harder and harder for him to mentally follow along at work and do the things that he used to do. This is the first time in a long time that I have seen him close to tears and I didn’t quite know what to do. I know something like cereal wouldn’t fix things but he is a cereal lover and I definitely think the gesture would cheer him up! Being a college student, I don’t have quite the disposable income to do this myself, so a coupon would be amazing!
PS, I love your blog, especially because I am from Albemarle, about 30 minutes from Charlotte so I am familiar with a lot of the places!
Bridget says
I think my fiance would love this just as much (or more!) than me!! We just closed on a house YESTERDAY so our humble abode is going to need some new cereal stash! plus he was like a kid at a candy store when he found the “make your own granola” bar at Whole Foods one time. This would be perfect!
melissa sue says
i think my fiance deserves a special cereal mix.
He’s currently in grad school to be a teacher, so he takes classes 2 evenings a week, student teaches 5 days a week and works 3 evenings a week (to help pay for it all). it’s a crazy schedule, and we end up eating a lot of smoothies for breakfast and lunch.
it would be awesome if, as a pick-me-up, he could have a bowl of HIS OWN CEREAL for lunch while he’s student teaching. i know he’d definitely include golden raisins (which i hate).
plus his birthday is coming up tomorrow, so this would be a fabulous birthday surprise.
thank you so much for always bringing these awesome contests to us. and these awesome new products!!
mel h says
I think my fiance deserves a cereal mix b/c we are getting married in 7 weeks! and are about to move in together! he is eating really healthy but we have a hard time affording too many cereals! they add up! thanks Kath

Ryane says
My sister has, for years, been eating really crap cereals but watching me make healthier choices. She’s finally come around and knows she needs to switch up her eating habits but she doesn’t know quite where to start or can’t find anything she likes yet. I think this would be an awesome opportunity for her to pick our healthy ingredients while choosing the tastes she does know she likes!
Frannie says
My friend Claire would love this! She is vegan and is constantly mixing her own cereals and mixes by buying boxes and boxes of ingredients. We have actually started our own bar company based on this concept – build your own fruit & nut bars, or we have some concoctions as well – we’re still trying to figure out a name. Anyway, Claire would love this! Sorry to ramble!
Andre says
I think my girlfriend should get this! she wakes up before the crack of dawn and bikes 6 miles to a greasy diner to make money. She usually brings her own oatmeal and a banana for breakfast but I really do think that the tall slender shape of the carton for goji would be much more transportable on her bike than a huge carton of oatmeal!
She definitely deserves this!
Julie says
My friend Leslee deserves a custom cereal mix because she’s trying REALLY hard to reduce her sodium and increase her whole grain intake!
Angela says
My bf deserves a cereal mix because he has yet to change his health habits and I think making his own would get him supremely excited and possibly on a health kick. I’ve already perked up his ears w/ a green monster smoothie but it will be a long road to healthy eating for him since he has YEARS of chinese take out and pizza hut under his belt.
Melissa says
My mom deserves a special mix – she is learning how to eat healthier, build her immune system and plus she deserves it! 🙂
Lisa says
My husband deserves a special cereal. He loves cold cereal in the morning, and he’ll make interesting blends when we have a variety in the house. He loves granola with ginger in it, and he loves Kashi Go Lean Crunch, so sometimes he mixes the 2. Or I’ll make granola and he’ll pick the mix-ins. Basically, he’s a huge fan of mix-ins, no matter what the food! Anyway, I’d love to come up with a special blend for him, and tomorrow is his birthday!
Jesse says
My Aunt Tanya, whom I call Mahti, is a constant rock of inspiration for me. She just told me she got bumped down two pay levels in her job because of the economy, but she was so upbeat and positive about it, because she said it was part of God’s plan to bring her closer to Him. I would love her to have some fancy cereal, since it is the type of thing she would never think of for herself! 🙂 Also, it is her birthday in a few weeks! 🙂
Diana (Soap & Chocolate) says
Love the idea for this cereal! Who needs to buy 3 boxes when you can customize your own? I think my boyfriend needs this because he’s too lazy to do cereal combining to achieve the perfect mix. 🙂
Linda says
I would select my brother for deserving a special cereal mix. He was laid-off from his IT job since August 08, but has remained extremely positive throughout the past 10 months. In fact, when he’s not job hunting or going on interviews, he’s at either two places: volunteering at a local food shelter or at the local gym. In regards to his own health – he’s trimmed over 25lbs off during this time by doing it the right way – exercise and eating wholesome foods. I think the customized cereal would give him a big boost for his hard work!
SarahP says
My best friend deserves a treat and could use a sweet surprise!
She’s a devoted teacher who is off for the summer, caring for her 18-month-old daughter and 8-week-old son!
She looks fantastic, but she’s a little blue about the post-baby weight (which, really, is just a little teensy bit because she was so great about nutrition while she was pregnant.)
Some days, she doesn’t have time to eat.
She grabs a handful of whatever she’s giving her daughter for a snack.
I know she would love some mommy-only KERF Krunch to give her something nutritious and quick to give her some extra fuel for nursing her baby.
I’d love to see her get the surprise, and I’d forgo the one you’d send me to someone else who could use a surprise! (And, then, I’ll buy some, because it looks YUMMY!)
Danielle says
My best friend Leigh-Ann deserves some Goji&Me for sure! She’s lost 50lbs in the last year and is always complaining that she can’t find just the right cereal, taste-wise and nutrition-wise. This would be perfect for her!
Rebekah says
Yum. Cereal!
I think my husband needs some cereal mix… his parents kept a huge “cereal library” of some of the most sugary, icky cereals… seriously, like a whole pantry+ full. And since marring me he hasn’t complained (alot), but doesn’t have much options besides the healthy, healthy stuff! I’m sure he’d load it up wit chocolate-y options if he had a choice! 🙂
Monica says
My sister is a sweetheart who needs some healthy and sweet snacks in her life! She is a full time student with an adorable new baby boy, who is also managing to be an amazing maid of honor to me by calming me for my wedding next week!! I think a treat like this is just what we BOTH need. 🙂
Whitney says
My mom deserves a species cereal mix…because she made me breakfast for 18 years!
Katie Bellinghausen says
Of course I have to nominate my mom for this! We have always had a stocked pantry with a special shelf for cereal and I know she would love the option of making her own healthy “mix” (Plus she just deserves it!)
Layne says
My best friend/sister deserves to make her own mix because she has been crazy busy lately and deserves a treat – and I wouldn’t mind working on the perfect topping for my daily yogurt bowl! 🙂
Michelle says
My boyfriend Tristan loves cereal more than anyone I know! He always has at least 4 boxes of the good stuff on hand. I think he would be thrilled to get a special mix of cereal made just for him. =)
Emily G says
My best friend Alex deserves a special cereal mix because she would loveeee picking out the ingredients and she’s home for the summer while all of my friends are all over the place. So she deserves a little something special!
susan Nolan says
my hubby deserves a special cereal mix.. he is a doctor and some days works 24 straight.. a big bowl of special cereal would be great after a long day or a good way to start out a long day and he has just lost 40 lbs 🙂 despite working so hard
Lori says
I would love to give some to my sister. She needs some pampering right now and someone to think about her!
Gen says
My husband is a cereal fanatic but also really health conscious too–He would love a special mix customized just for him!
Tegan says
I would love to give this to my mom. She’s seriously the best, most supportive mom a girl could ever have!
Julia says
I think my dad deserves a special cereal mix. We have a lot in common, we both enjoy eating healthy and are foodies. My dad is also extremely active (we joke that he should have a blog of his own). I think a me&goji cereal mix would be the perfect treat for him for Father’s Day and would give him a chance to make a healthy cereal to fuel him through his active days!
Evan Thomas says
I would say my mom definitely deserves a special cereal mix. For someone who always has a busy day, she only starts off with a scant bowl of Total or Special K. And she just had an operation to remove a polyp yesterday, so when she gets out of the hospital and comes home she’ll need more than Total to regain her old strength.
Dominique says
My best friend Stacy is addicted to 2 things: granola and trail mix. Her most favorite thing to do (and I’m sure she got it from KERF) is to mix different cereals together with trail mix and fresh fruit! It would be one of the highlights of her summer to receive this special gift! We just graduated from college so funds are low and free items are always so deeply appreciated 🙂
Jess says
My dad! He just had heart surgery and needs to adopt a healthier lifestyle. This would be a good treat for him as he does so.
Aimee says
My husband Steve deserves this cereal because ever since I lost my job as a corporate lawyer in March he has been working his full time job, working part time as a real estate agent, and working towards his MBA. While I hate that he is hardly home, I appreciate that he works so hard for us. He loves cereal and mixed up Zoe’s granola and Kashi this morning, and get this he added white chocolate chips on top!
Caroline says
I would have to say that my grandmother deserves some Me & Goji for two reasons:
1) She and share a love of mixing multiple kinds of cereal in one bowl–she would love to create her own mix!
2) She inspired me to pursue nutrition as a career; she, too, is a registered dietician!
Susan says
My roommate Meghan deserves a cereal mix. Not only is she a cereal lover, but she’s so busy she often skips breakfast in the morning. I think she needs a cereal she loves to fuel her crazy busy days 🙂 (and a reward for working so hard!)
Jennifer says
My husband, Ed, is definitely deserving of a cereal mix! I had never even thought of mixing my grains until we were married. Now we all (including my 2 kids) mix our cereal! Yummy!
Jenn
Anneliese says
Hi Kath!
My mom deserves her own cereal mix because she’s so hard-working. I’m the oldest of four children, and three of them (my younger siblings) live at home. She cares about us so much–to the point that she sometimes forgets to put herself first. I would love to have her make her own mix–even though she would probably end up sharing it with my five-year-old brother!
Tammy says
Wow, someone that deserves their own cereal mix… that’s hard. My whole family would deserve it. Who would love it more…that’s a close tie between my husband Rudy & my dad!!
Melanie says
My mom deserves a healthy cereal mix. She is the greatest person ever and I love her so much. Tomorrow is the 13th anniversary of the death of my brother, and she could really use some cheering up.
Rachel says
I think I deserve it! Ha! I love to mix all sorts of cereals and nuts together now so this would be perfect!
Monica says
My sister, Mandy – she’s nine months pregnant and would love some good wholesome granola/cereal to nourish the little fella! Thanks Kath!
Alexa says
I am a huge cereal mixer, but my husband eats the same thing every morning! He has been complaining about how boring it is lately though, so I think he would be most deserving of a cereal mix! Variety is the spice of life, and makes work mornings a little sunnier. Thanks!
Julie says
My Mom really deserves this! She works very hard! She always finds commercial cereals too sweet and I know she’d enjoy customizing!
Meg says
My sister is 29, just started her masters in bio-chemistry and is raising two little girls. She definitely needs some amazing cereal to kick start her uber busy days!
Jennifer says
My colleague at work, Nina, deserves a cereal mix. She has cereal and cold milk every morning, but is always asking me to help her buy the healthiest version in the supermarket. I think she would love being able to create her own healthy option! Thanks, Kath!
Terrormisu says
My boyfriend, Kent, deserves this mix. He’s vegan, really low on cash (his parents make him pay for his college AND food, and, with classes, he obviously can’t afford to work all the time), and we live in a crappy town with no real vegan options. I love him more than anything and he deserves a special cereal mix just for him. =)
Kristen says
My sister deserves a cereal mix. She has been working so hard at eating right and exercising the past few months and deserves a healthy and fun treat as a reward.
Conor says
My wife deserves this mix as a reward for running a marathon.
Caitlin says
I’m gonna say that my friend Russell should try the me+goji cereals – he has celiac’s, and they even point out their gluten-free options! Plus, he’s a starving grad student 🙂
PS – thanks for tipping me off to yogadownload! I’ve really enjoyed everything I’ve tried from there, and it’s a nice break from running / swimming / biking.
Kate says
My sister deserves a mix! She’s pregnant (just entered her 2nd trimester) and the only thing she craves/can keep down these days is cereal!
sarah (ghost world) says
my sister and i deserve me & goji because we are both foodies who would appreciate the fun experience of designing our own product! then we could get in a fight about whose is better, and then make up 10 minutes later. ahhh, sisters.
Katie says
My boyfriend Ian would love a cereal mix. We both love cereal and have a hard time keeping cereal in the apartment for more than a few days. I think he would love to make his own special mix, although I bet he would eat it pretty quickly!
Britt says
my wonderful boyfriend deserves the mix. he’s been unemployed for six months, but despite the tough times, he’s still a tremendous help to me, cooking, cleaning, and even shuttling me to and from work every day. Most important, he makes me breakfast every morning before we go to work, so i’d like to give him something for breakfast for once!
Emily says
My sister-in-law Jill is so deserving of a mix. She has encouraged me to love my body the way it is, and is helping me change my eating habits for the better! This would be the best thank-you gift for her!
marie says
My DH deserves his own cereal mix b/c he always lets me pick the cereal we have in the house even though he eats it way more often than I.
Dima says
My mom would love the cereal mix. She loves to try new combinations and is a health nut.
swimmy333 says
My husband – because he is a serious cereal lover. Pick us pick us!
Sarah K says
My husband deserves the cereal mix. We are both working hard to change our eating habits and he is always so supportive! Plus, he loves cereal and I think creating his own mix will reinforce the healthy eating!
Alex says
My sister deserves a mix! She and her husband are professional runners and could always use a high-calorie snack to fuel them!
Sharon says
My sister deserves a mix but she’s just an incredibly wonderful and supportive person!
Corinna says
I’d say my mom deserves it, she’s trying to become healthier, but she has a hard time staying on track. I’d love to have her try to make something healthy for herself that she couldn’t normally do, since it’s kind of expensive. :/
Katie Davis says
My dad deserves a mix like this. He like me also really enjoys yogurt and cereal combos and is always trying the newest healthy granola or cereal mix out there. I think he would especially enjoy getting to come up with his own combination!
kate says
My lovely sister, who will need the energy for a big move next month!
Tracy says
My husband needs this cereal! He is picky about which cereals he gets, and they all have to have certain nuts, etc… in them! Thanks for the contest Kath!
Tiffany says
My WONDERFUL HUSBAND! He is a true “southerner” (I am too but I don’t eat like it!) and I have worked so hard over the past 2 years of our marriage to get him to understand that:
– corn doesn’t have to have fat back grease in it to taste good!
– beans don’t have to have ham/ham bone in it!
– bacon doesn’t belong on everything!
You get the idea. He’s in great shape and all his doctor’s visits come back perfect, so it’s been REALLY hard to steer him in a new direction. I think it would be fun for him to make his own cereal, and maybe “forget” it’s healthy too!
Thanks!
stephanie says
My boyfriend! I don’t call him cereal monster for no reason!!
NJ says
I would say that I deserve the mix since I lost my job again this summer, just like last year. I am having bad luck getting laid off. But my mom deserves it much more for supporting me, again, just like last year. And, not going to lie, I would look forward to the morning a little more with a mix that was super yum.
Nanette says
Thanks for the contest Kath!!
I think my husband deserves to try Me & Goji. He’s been a wonderful source of support while I have embraced a healthier lifestyle over the past few years. And he makes a MEAN bowl of cereal!! This would just give him more control over the ingredients!
Katy says
My younger brother deserves a yummy cereal mix because when he ran HS cross country, he fell in love with Trader Joe’s Triple Berry-O’s and literally made a collage of Triple Berry-O box fronts on his wall in his room. I could send you a picture if you wanted to see some real cereal dedication 🙂 Robby is coming home from his first year at UC Davis tomorrow and I would love to surprise him when he’s home with the prospect of his own artisan cereal!
The Duo Dishes says
Because cereal is our daily breakfast! And we’re kinda broke?
Zoe says
My sweet sister deserves it for sure…she is in the AF stationed in Germany and has suuuuuch a hard time finding some of the yummy foods we can all get any ole time. Sure she sends me pics of all the sausage choices she has at the grocery store that make me laugh, but I would love to tell her she won some yummo cereal and make her smile:)
kellybean says
My mom deserves a Me & Goji mix for sure! She is such an amazing person, and she taught me to love mixing cereal and things, just like you do! She and I both love cereal, and would I know my mom would love to come up with a yummy cereal to call her own!
heather P says
my friend, who has 2 kids, but has been trying to get pregnant for a year. she has a history of ovarian cysts and uteran fibroids. the same week that the doctor told her there was NO WAY she could conceive right now cuz her hormones are all out of wack – she did! she conceived triplets!!!!! with no fertility drugs – its a 1 in 800,000 chance. i think she could use a healthy and quick breakfast option. haha.
Sheri says
My roommate Amy deserves it! We eat cereal together all the time and really enjoy mixing different kinds together.
Angie (Losing It and Loving It) says
I think hubby deserves his own cereal mix because he’s picky with cereal and to be able to put together his own would be very cool.
Cynthia says
My husband definitely deserves a chance to have his own. He has lost about 80 pounds just by eating healthy and exercises just because he likes it. He looks great and enjoys his healthy life instead of the slow life he had when he couldn’t move very well.
cookienurse says
I think my twin sister deserves the cereal; she battled with her weight for many years and was the brunt of a lot of family teasing because she was always ‘the heavy one’. in the last two years finally was able to get to her ideal weight and in awesome physical shape!! Everyone is just amazed at the wonderful change! She exercises with a personal trainer and really changed her diet. She is so concious of how food affects her and teaches us to make better choices to live (and eat) more healthier!!
Lacey says
My friend Erin deserves a chance to win she is trying to lose weight and she is changing her lifestyle into a healthy lifestyle. This could be a nice little healthy treat to get her started.
BethT says
My sis in law deserves it because she’s a cereal junkie like me!
jenn. says
daddy dearest..he has a lot of health and has recently tried to turn his health around by eating better and exercising..he’s been swimmmng everyday but still has a hard time understanding that healthy doesn’t mean lettuce for the rest of his life..this could be something that tastes good and could be added to his healthy arsenal (in moderation of course)..and i’d love to try it as well =)
Elizabeth Edith says
my boyfriend! He eats cereal almost every day, and the same kinds over and over again get pretty old 🙁
Kare says
Hi Kath,
I’m a long-time follower, first time commenter. I would love to get the cereal because I was recently laid off from my law firm, and trying to use this turning point in my life to jump start a healthier and happier life. And that starts with breakfast!
Becca says
My roomate Carolyn could definitely use a cereal mix! Every morning she goes into the cabinet and creates her own mix from about 5 different cereals – this way she could just reach for one box!
TaraJ says
My sister! She works so hard taking care of my 2yr old nephew and 3yr old niece. 🙂
Rebeca says
I would share this with my mom she’s such a healthy little eater (she’s is little, only 4’8”) but she always picks me first- We were talking about juicing and later that day I got an email confirmation that she’d ordered me a juicer and she said “she’ll get one for herself when she can” which I know means somewhere far off down the line!
She’s the best!
Ellen says
my best friend ever definitely deserves this. she’s a poor college student, but is on her own this summer. she’s is doing her best to feed herself well, and LOVES granola.
kelly says
I would share this with my Dad, Fathers day is coming and he is a major cereal junkie!
Juli says
My knocked up friend needs some extra nutritious cereal mix for her and her fetus.
Kristin says
My coworker Kim deserves the cereal mix. Not only does she bust her butt at work all day, but she goes home every evening to an autistic son who likes to keep things interesting!
Jenna says
My brother would love this. He is a huge cereal fan and is always mixing them. It would be a great surprise.
Stephanie says
My mom totally deserves to win some cereal mix! She just finished her first semester of nursing school. She waited until all of us kids were done with school and she slowly went back herself! The nursing program is VERY intense, not leaving her much time to do anything but study! She deserves this mix because she is such a hard worker and she loves healthy food…especially cereal. I would love it if she won!!
Sarah says
My grandma totally deserves a Me&Goji Mix. Last week, she had to have cancerous polyps removed from her colon, plus have the batteries in her pacemaker replaced. Unfortunately, breakfast ruined the second operation because the hospital gave her a bowl of cream of wheat when she wasn’t supposed to eat. Consequently, she had to go through the whole operation- awake! I cringe thinking about it.
I think it would be wonderful for her to have a nice experience with breakfast sometime soon.
Roxana says
I think my friend Cat deserves a cereal mix! After the year she’s been through, something simple like this might let her have a couple of moments of peace to herself every day. Plus she loves cereal and whenever she comes to my house or I go to her house we have cereal or oatmeal breakfasts and mix everything up into a delicious meal 🙂
junghwa says
i’d love to win this for my sister who has just graduated. She’ll love to have this on her roadtrip!
jayme says
my dad needs something like this because he tends to skip breakfast a lot these days. He has to leave for work early in the morning so he always forgets to eat. this is not good for his health at all.
thank you for the giveaway.
Evelyne says
My big sister totally deserves me&goji! she’s about 7 months pregnant and was told by her doctor she needs to pay a little more attention to her diet (more vitamins, more fiber) and I think me&goji would be perfect for that!
And I can totally use it too, I’m on a “very healthy” kick right now, trying to shed a few pounds for the hike of my life (mount kilimanjaro, in tanzania) in the fall.
june says
i’d love to present this to one of my dear professors who’s crazy about any kind of cereal. She actually collects cereals and has SO MANY in her pantry.
She will be amazed to know that she could actually create her OWN mix.
Kristin says
My sister just got engaged. She is the best and she would love this cereal!!
lauren says
My husband totally deserves to win me&goji cereal because has been doing everything right and needs to be rewarded! He’s been eating better for the last 2 years and he has lost a lot of weight, about 45 lbs so far, he is getting into running & working out again, and he just decided to go back to school to get his bachelor’s in Secondary Ed. After all of these improvements he has made in his life, he just got let go at his job last Thursday!
I really think winning me&goji cereal would make his day!!
Meg says
I’d have to say my Mom – she recently has undergone a lot of hospital visits, and had a stroke last summer that nearly took her life – because of all this – she needs to learn how to eat healthier to lower her cholesterol, and it’s hard for her to understand the ‘right’ things to eat. I think this would be a great opportunity for her to create a nutritious mix to start her day! I would also love to create a mix too – I love cereal and being creative! Putting the two together sounds like a lot of fun 😉
Hope you enjoyed mixing yours and eating it too! Looks wonderful.
Have a wonderful day.
Meg
jk says
my friend Cathy deserves this cereal mix because she has been there for me through everything. I’d love to share cereal love with her if it’s possible! i hope i win!
hyang says
my mom deserves this because she always take care of us and our breakfasts. She needs her own creation and own breakfast item!!! =]
adrianna says
my baby sis deserves it fo sho. she’s a cereal fanatic, and tends to eat the higher sugar or higher cal cereals, w/ not a lot of whole grain/protein power. (she IS a teen, but still…) i know she would love something fun and new, and i think it would be great for her new lifeguarding gig, gettin her thru the morns/afternoons.
Adventures of Alice says
I had already decided to say my Mom before I clicked on the comments-looks like a lot of people thought the same! I’m choosing my mom because growing up, she never let us buy a cereal if the first two ingredients were sugar. So our choices were certainly limited, but a lot healthier! Back then I didn’t really appreciate it, but now I’m glad my Mom got us started on healthy choices early–even if we didn’t realize it! So I think my Mom deserves a very tasty and healthy cereal that she wouldn’t be able to find in a regular grocery store
Liz says
My mom deserves a cereal mix because she eats cereal every single morning… and is always looking for new kinds. And I’m always trying to get her to make more nutritious cereal choices!
leah says
I could really use a special cereal mix! I’ve been unemployed and job hunting now for about a month, and boy, is it disheartening! I know many people are in the same boat, but wow, some cereal would be awesome. I’d give the other mix to my fiance in thanks for his constant love and support!
Mich says
The 2nd mix would go to one of my colleagues whose competence and organizational skills impress me.
Megan says
My younger sister deserves the mix! We are the best of friends but live on opposite coasts. She just graduated from college and joined the working world and is trying to figure out how to eat healthy in an office setting. I wish I was closer to shop with her, but this is the next best thing!
Keri R. says
My parents would love the me&goji mix. They are big goji devotees!
Jenn (www. j3nn.net ) says
That cereal looks SO good!
Jenn
Amy says
My fiance, Ryan, would appreciate his very own mix! I am slowly bringing him into the healthy eating fold and eager to show him that great tasting + healthy things can co-exist!
Anne P says
My mom deserves one 🙂 I think she would have fun with the options and I’m always trying to get her to have healthy cereals 🙂
Anne says
My friend Renee deserves a me&goji cereal mix because she’s a) a hard working phD student; b) a self-professed cereal afficionado; c) always there with a kind ear and awesome insight; d) all of the above.
Sarah says
My mom deserves a cereal mix. She gets stuck in breakfast ruts and I think she would enjoy something new in the mornings! 🙂
Betsy says
My 19 year old sister who just moved into her very first apartment could definitely use some!!
Paula says
Oooh! Ive been wanting to try it so bad.. I think me Mom deserves to customize her own cereal. she has been a true strength to my health. She has been transitioning into an eating plan that is designed for her blood type. Customizing is key. I love her and she taught be how to eat right.
Bethany says
My best friend from graduate school and I go out to brunch every weekend. We have been friends now for almost 7 years and were eachothers first friends out west. Both being from the east, she is moving back to DC on wednesday and it would be great if we could create a cereal to “share breakfast even when we are apart” sort of thing!
Dawn says
My guys – my boyfriend and his son – practically live on cereal, and they love it! But maybe it’s time for them to realize there’s more than cheerios in the world.
Liz says
My dad deserves a special mix. He is an amazing man who has turned his life around health wise after a diabetes diagnosis. He just ran his first marathon last fall and has plans to continue them at least once a year. Also – he loves breakfast food, oats etc so a special mix for him with plenty of fiber and whole grains would be perfect!
kat says
I want to give the granola to my Mom. She just had back surgery and I think she’d love this for her road back to health!
…..and I can’t wait to try it too!!
JillyB says
My boyfriend Brett deserves his own special mix. He has a physically demanding job but always finds the energy to mow the lawn/clean the kitchen/do the laundry when I am late getting home from work (every day, basically). He is a sweetie and a real cereal lover!
Natalie says
I would like my mom to win! She is very busy with my brother and I moving back home. She makes attempts at eating right, but usually doesn’t have the resources or time to do it.
Holly says
I’d love to share the mix with my mom :o) she’s working very hard to get on the health bandwagon and I am so proud of her!
M. Howard says
My mama! 🙂 64 and just decided to go for the “Real Food”, it may be that she has a crush on the young fellow in Produce! Shhhhh…don’t tell me Dad!! 🙂 🙂
Tina says
My beautiful daughter. She is really getting into soccer and this would be great fuel for her practices and games.
Amy says
My Mom does! She recently gave up her candy (M&Ms!) habit so this would make a great substitute but yummy snack.
Natalie says
awesome giveaway! my husband definitely deserves a cereal mix. the last few months he’s had to do tons of medical tests and they’re still trying to diagnose some mystery stomach condition. as a result, he’s had to severely limit a lot of foods-including a lot of foods he enjoys! believe it or not, cereal is one of the few things he can still eat pretty regularly without hurting. he’d LOVE to design his own!
juliep says
This is so cool! My Mom would totally dig this surprise (and I would, too!)-as she loves mixing granola and cereal!
Ilene says
My sister definitely deserves her own personally-designed cereal. I blame her everytime we run out of cereal in the house since she eats it 24/7!
Keegan says
Definitely my mom! She’s been my motivation through school and is pretty much the most amazing person in the world. She’s working her butt off to get in shape right now and this would definitely help her along and keep things yummy while she goes!
Becky says
My friend Jonathan deserves this cereal. For the last 52 weeks he has helped me find my inner athlete. With his help, I have lost 50 pounds and feel like a new person. Because of him, I now get more excited about this amazing cereal than chocolate cake! It is his birthday next week and I feel like this is the perfect “thank you” for bringing me back.
Jennifer says
My husband deserves a cereal mix. I’m constantly teasing him about mixed the last of a few boxes of cereal. He drew the line at mixed some Fruit Loops into Raisin Bran.
Rachael says
Definitely my youngest (17yr) sister. She has to put up with my wild older (18yr) younger sister back at home. She loves eating healthy but doesn’t get as many choices back home in Florida as I do out here in Seattle.
londonwee says
My mom deserves a me&goji mix. She’s the most inspirational woman I know, and she always puts others needs first. So, she deserves something for herself, and delicious me&goji would be perfect! (she loves health food).
Amanda @ Cakes and Ale says
I think my husband definitely deserves a special cereal mix. He works incredibly hard for very little reward, and I worry about him getting enough fuel during the day… I know he would love a little customized cereal mix to munch on!
Amanda says
My mom just recently had a procedure and hence has had to stay close to home. I would love to win this for her and I!
Lauri says
I think my friend Tonya deserves to try Me&Goji because she is getting married in a few months and trying to eat better and stay in shape for her big day!
D says
Looks super tasty and alot of fun to create your own mix and such!!!
I would have to say my dear friend, Sandi, deserves to win this fun treat. She has been everything you would ever want a friend to be and then more. I recently was diagnosed with a life changing condition that taught me who my real friends were, the lovely Sandi was completely and utterly there for me. She has been a foundation to keep me going, someone to lean on when I can not walk and exemplifies all that is good in people. Above all us, she keeps me laughing in the toughest of medical times and that girl loves her some food:)
Biz says
I would give it to my mom – cereal is her go to in the morning – and she’s almost 70 and helps run the local food pantry – UNLOADING a truck full of food to stock too!
Thanks Kath!
Annie says
My momma deserves it – she is the one who taught me the importance of breakfast and the great start it gives your day.
Holly says
I think my stepdad should win. A year ago he dug the grave for my lab who got hit by a car (in 100 degree heat). A week ago he had triple bypass. He is trying to learn about nutrition and this would be a great lesson!
Kristen says
We’re trying to keep my mom’s diet optimized nutritionally as she goes through chemotherapy, and I can’t think of a better way than picking out the ingredients of her cereal!
Jamie Lynne says
Hi Kath,
I believe my mother deserves her own special cereal. She has started the Fage, berry, and cereal love in my hometown and is the best role model for living a healthy, full life. These things aside, my mother is full of love for her family and will do anything for her kids. Several years ago, she nursed me back to health when I had anorexia and no amount of treatment could keep me safe. She prepared all my meals to the painstaking detail of my dietician’s instructions and sat with me for hours each day while I struggled through them. She did all of this on top of raising three other children, one of them having Down Syndrome. My mother is amazing, and is so deserving (not to mention that she jokes all the time about never having won anything in her life!). Thanks Kath!
-Jamie Lynne
Beth says
I think that my good friend — let’s call her Ed — should get some cereal. She just got married, which is a happy, happy thing, but now she and the new hubby are living in the middle of nowhere, without any friends or family. She’s lonely! They’re also trying to healthen their diet up, and this cereal would help. Thanks for the giveaway!
Erin says
My fiance deserves a personalized cereal mix! I’m always trying to get him to branch out of the boring old cereals…..if he could choose his own mixing this would do the trick!
Katie says
Your breakfasts always look so yummy!
Much like other comments I’ve read, my momma definitely deserves her own special mix! I’ve been trying to be pretty healthy for the past couple of years now, but just moved to North Carolina, way way way far away from my fam. My mom has been struggling with weight, health, and dietary issues recently. I feel like a good, healthy, yummy cereal mix will really give her a boost she needs. Especially since her baby is too far away to give her the love and encouragement she needs 🙂
Jennifer says
My Mom! She is the best in the world and works her butt off at work and at home…all while being super stylish and healthy! She would love this moxed with some yogurt!
Courtney B says
I think my friend Ryan deserves a special cereal. He’s really taken his health in hand over the past year and works out regularly, eats healthy, cut back on his drinking AND quit smoking. He deserves a fun treat to help him enjoy his new healthy lifestyle in the mornings.
Angie says
Cool contest…I’d like to make a mix for my friend and co-worker, Heather- she is filling in for me this week while I’m on vacation!
Kristen says
I think my mom deserves a special mix because she is really trying to convert her diet (SAD) and a mix like this would be great for her!
Bev says
I think my son deserves the yummy mix, because his wife and he are expecting a baby and I feel sometime the men need some attention.
Kay says
I know exactly who needs and deserves a special cereal mix…my sweet daughter Rachel! She is trying so hard to eat healthy in hopes of becoming a mommy soon. This mix would help her I know 🙂
Paula Del Rossi says
My mother definitely deserves to win! She suffered a heart attack three years ago and is doing her best to eat healthy! On top of that I am blessed to have her as a mother and do my best to take care of the nutrition side of her heart! Yay for moms!
Sues says
This looks fabulous! My boyfriend really deserves this because he is making it his goal to eat healthier (and work out) and is doing an amazing job. When I first met him he ate like crap and wasn’t leading a very healthy lifestyle. But after seeing how important health is to me, he jumped in feet first and I’m soo proud of him 🙂
Eddie says
I think my wife really, really deserves a delicious mix of her own. She has lost 60 pounds and maintained it for almost five(5) years now! She walks and tries to eat healthy. Hope she wins 🙂
Taylor says
My aunt Penny deserves a mix of her own because she just rocked a half marathon last weekend and her 40th birthday is this weekend!
monique says
I think my youngest sister deserves it. She has two young children and just finished her first 5k 2 weeks ago and is running a 7 mile race this weekend. I am very proud of her accomplishments!!
Kylie says
My co-worker deserves it because she has lost so much weight and is doing great at making healthy choices!
abbie says
My sister deserves her own mix because she just joined the real food bandwagon and has stopped eating fast food and junk! I am so proud of her! She has also lost over 30 pounds!
Bonnie says
My sister definitely deserves to create her own mix, and here’s why:
Several years ago she became very sick and experienced organ failure. She spent about 6 months in the ICU and several months after that in recovery, learning how to walk and getting back her coordination. She became very weak during her coma and the many months she sat paralyzed in hospital. Since then, she has fully regained her strength and has committed herself to living a healthy life. She is one of the healthiest eaters I know and she LOVES breakfast. She always makes sure she gets a good balance of everything in her diet. I know she would really enjoy this!
kristin point says
I think my friend who is trying to lose weight deserves the mix bc she is trying new foods right now and this would give her a chance to be creative.
Adriane A says
My boyfriend never is satisfied with the cereals on the market. I think he would become a fan if he got to mix his own! So he deserves it!
Red Head, Yellow Dog says
My mom deserves it! she is the one who always told me “Everything in moderation” and showed me the importance of a healthy and balanced lifestyle. And she loves cereal as much as I do! I would love to be able to give this to her 🙂
Lynn says
my hubby, the cereal mixing freak, would love this! he just got an op-ed video on the nytimes website and i am so proud of him:

Danielle J says
My mom definitely deserves this! After fracturing her back last month, she hasn’t done much but have to take it easy and rest to let it heal. As a pretty active woman, its really hard for her so I’m sure this would make her smile 😀
Whitney says
My BF deserves a mix because he is stressed about a deal at work that goes through on Monday (and it could mean and offer or not)
Jesse says
Hi there! Incredible offer, but I really think my Mom deserves a cereal mix.
She just very recently got back from doing the Peace Corps in South Africa, and she said the one food she really missed terribly was a good bowl of cereal with cold milk!
I’d love for her to be able to create her own!
Megan says
My friend Mavis, for sure. She lives in the middle of nowhere in Michigan and has to do things like grind her own chickpeas into chickpea flour in order to eat healthily and provide healthy food for her supercreative little girl. She also makes her own maple syrup and puts beets in her birthday cakes. She’s awesome!
Leanne says
I’d love my friend Huston to get to design one. He’s a true foodie so would enjoy the creativity and he has been a huge support for me as we’ve gone through our weight loss journeys together.
Rachel says
I think my mom really deserves this she is so dedicated to her weight and has lost alot and kept it off for close to five years..She is a real insperation and would love to create her own cereal…She loves eating healthy…and enjoys finding new good tasting health food.
Jelli says
My husband really deserves a custom cereal mix because he really tries hard to down the oatmeal I feed him, being a good sport, but he really hates it. He needs a quick, satisfying and filling breakfast, and I’d like him to really enjoy sitting across the table from me in the A.M. not making “gross” faces in between bites of oats.
Erin says
My sister deserves this cereal mix because she needs a lot of energy to pack up her house of 17 years and move to Colorado. She and I try to eat healthy, nourishing food and keep our weight under control.
I read KERF everyday. Wow, YOU must have a lot of energy to do all you do AND post all you post.
Cathy says
If my father were still alive her would deserve this. He was the original cereal mix man. He would always start with Raisin Bran, to this he would add: some kind of fruit, (rhubarb sause being one of his favorites), always a part of a banana, some kind of nut, peanuts or maybe slivered almonds, then he might add some rolled oats or wheat germ, depending on what my mother had on hand. We would just watch this and wrinkle our noses. However as an adult I am just like him. Loving all the textures and not wanting to just settle for one. So I was taught by the master I guess. He was 83 when he passed away two years ago. He never added peanut butter that I know of, but I think he would have liked that.
Stacey says
I think that my boyfriend deserves a good cereal mix. He is a road bike racer and every weekend he fuels up on about 3 bowls of cereal! He only gets his cereal from Trader Joes, but since it is 30 minutes away sometimes he has to do without! This would make him so happy!!!! He is a cereal fanatic 🙂
Laura T says
On behalf of my so Awesome Sister, I would be so excited to win the me&goji mix! She is my best friend and never fails to cheer up on a day the “sun is just not shining”.
Oh She Glows says
My sister could use a cereal mix! Her lifestyle is so hectic with two boys (and a husband!) lol.
Kelly says
Well, i think i’d like to have this cereal for my friend Laura, she needs a treat lately, shes at the very end of her pregnancy and ready to pop and just in general pain 🙁 I feel bad for her and want something to make her smile.
Lizzie says
My baby sis totally deserves a cereal mix! She is the most giving person I know and as a college student living in the dorm it’s hard to always eat healthy. She usually ends up at my house on weekends to get some healthy food! I know she would love some healthy cereal so she could avoid cafeteria food for breakfast!
Laura E says
My mom definitely deserves to make her own cereal mix. She always buys the cheapest store brand of cereals and I know they just don’t taste as good! Thanks for the opportunity.
kate says
My sister deserves her own cereal mix. As kids, we ate cereal for pretty much every meal and in the last 3 years, she has lost about 30 pounds through healthy eating. This would be a great way to rehash old times while keeping her health goals in mind. Plus, it’s her birthday next week 🙂
Alyssa says
My friend Nic left a message on here before and just told me about this fantastic giveaway! We are both intrigued by this product. She’s the nutty one, and I’m the sweet one 🙂 Together, we make a great cereal!! We both love your blog and we enjoy our healthy eating conversations. It would be so great if we could custom make our own cereal and then share with each other! Choose us!!! 🙂
~Sweet n nutty
Brittany says
I have been ordering from them for some time, so I just want to say good luck for all of you guys and that I named mine, BURNT TOAST? EAT THIS!
val says
i think my friend kirsta, who lived on cereal last summer and possibly still does would love to create one of these mixes… i would too!
Jennifer says
I would give this cereal to my husband as we both love our cereal and fruit in the morning but we can’t really afford any fancy stuff very often. He is always taking the cheaper (he insists) cereals so the kids and I can share the good organic cereals. I would love to spoil him because he deserves it so much. <3
Meaghan says
My momma definitely deserves a cereal mix of her very own. She is my best friend and has always stuck by my side through the curveballs life throws at me. I love her so very much. 🙂
Stephanie says
Definitely my Mom! I moved to Texas about 5 years ago, and she and I are really close, so it’s always been hard! I started losing weight successfully after being overweight my whole life about 2 years ago, and while I get to talk about healthy foods and stuff on the phone with her, it would have been so much cooler to go through the process with her here.
Anyway, she hears me talk about granola ALL the time, and it would be so cool to be able to send her something like this!
mikey says
your mix sounds yummy! i want to make my own so bad, but i haven’t been able to justify the cost yet. i’ll probably cave soon though 🙂
lisa says
my sister, who has been battling treatment resistant depression with a clean diet and daily hard work and exercise, sooooo deserves her own blend! she had taken this overwhelming challenge and bite by bite, so to speak, has attacked this monster called depression and she is seeing SUCH INCREDIBLE results. i am sooo proud of her.
