Protein Cereal Wars - The Ultimate Protein Packed Battle

Protein Cereal Wars - The Ultimate Protein Packed Battle

John: 

Hey guys, John and Jeff here with Best Price Nutrition. You can check out the website at bestpricenutrition.com. And over the past couple of years, we've seen a lot of these high-protein cleaner cereals coming out and you picked up three of them. So we're going to do a little taste test today. 

Jeff: 

Yeah. So we've got Magic Spoon, which is very popular on social media. We've got Ghost, which their energy drinks they're known for, and just the whole brand in the supplement world. And then we have Kellogg's, which a lot of people don't know about, but this one actually has the highest amount of protein out of all of them. 

John:

You've got 20, 18, 13 

Jeff: 

13, yes. So yeah, so 150 calories, 13 grams of protein, 170 calories, 18 grams of protein. Is this 18? Yeah. And then 160 calories and 20 grams of protein. So we're going to do a big battle here. We're going to get some people from our store and Best Price Nutrition to review some of these. And we're going to see which one tastes the best. I didn't know, but we got some high-protein milk as well. It's from a gas station, but it was... So we're going to test it out. So you want to be the first guy? 

John: 

Sure, I'll try. 

Jeff: 

Okay. 

John: 

So Ghost also has a, what is it, like a Lucky Charms type cereal? 

Jeff: 

Yeah, there's some other flavors as well. So it's what's available, everybody. This will be a longer video, but stay because this will be fun times. I've had all these, so I don't know if I should even try them. 

John: 

The peanut butter is good. 

Jeff:

Isn't it good? I know which one's my favorite. All these are in the same realm of $10 a box, so it is... Damn, you're taking that down. So they're around $10, so you're going to be paying a lot. I think at Costco you can buy two of these for 12 bucks or something. All right, so you're done with the...

John:

Peanut butter is good. 

Jeff: Oh, this is the peanut butter. Ah, okay. This one is the Kellogg's. 

John:

I know you're the cinnamon guy, so that's going to be your favorite. 

Jeff: 

Yeah, I like the cinnamon. 

John: 

That's pretty cool. 

Jeff: Yeah, yeah, it is. 

John: 

It's like a Taco Bell Churro. It's like a Taco Bell Churro.

Jeff: 

That one's good. All right. Now the Magic Spoon, which is of course the fruity flavor. And I think they have two or three other flavors of cereal as well. So this one will be different than the other two. 

John: 

That's good. 

Jeff:

Yeah. 

John: 

It's free of dyes?

Jeff: 

Really? You're asking me that question. Well, it uses monk fruit. 

John: 

That's good. 

Jeff: 

Yeah, it doesn't say anything about the dye. High protein, [inaudible 00:02:44] friendly, gluten-free, grain-free, soy-free, wheat-free, naturally flavored. Say nothing about the color. 

John: 

That's exactly like Froot Loops. 

Jeff:

Yeah. 

John: 

Okay. 

Jeff: 

All right. 

John: 

Do I rate them?

Jeff: 

Yeah. Which one's your favorite? 

John: 

Yum. I'm actually surprised by this. I'm going to go, I expected this one to be the least. I'm going to go one. 

Jeff: 

Wow. 

John: 

Two. 

Jeff: 

What? 

John: 

Three.

Jeff: 

Really? Okay. 

John: 

You know what? This one tastes fantastic up front, but as soon as the sugar wears off of it's like really bland. 

Jeff: 

Really?

John: 

Yeah. 

Jeff: 

Okay. All right. So we're going to get some other people in here. Okay. So we got Heather here. 

Heather: 

Hi guys. 

Jeff: 

Heather, you've never had any of these, right? 

Heather: 

No, I'm excited. 

Jeff:

No. Okay. 

Heather: 

Which one's this one? 

Jeff: 

So that one is the...

John: 

Ghost. 

Jeff: 

Ghost. 

Heather:

Okay.

Jeff: 

The ghost peanut butter.

Heather: 

You can really taste a peanut butter. 

Jeff: 

Yeah. Okay.

Heather: 

Okay. I'm only going to do one bite of this.

Jeff: 

Okay. Yeah, John took his time. So this is the Kellogg's. Yes. 20 grams of protein.

Heather: 

This one is good. If you're a cinnamon person, you'll like this one for sure. 

Jeff: 

Okay. Now it's the Magic Spoon Fruity. 

Heather: 

Okay. It tastes just like Froot Loops.

John: 

Exactly like Froot Loops. Yeah. 

Jeff: 

What John said, yeah. 

Heather: 

Just like Froot Loops. 

Jeff: 

All right, so what is your rating? 

Heather: 

I'm going to agree with John and say this is the best one. 

Jeff: 

Really? Okay. 

Heather: 

But then I'm going to go...

Jeff: 

Check it out. Okay. 

Heather:

Because I really like cinnamon and the peanut butter one last. 

Jeff:

All right. All right. So that one is the Ghost.

Maurice:

I like this. 

Jeff: 

You like that one? All right.

Maurice: I like this. 

Abby: 

This one's really good. 

Jeff: 

Okay. Abby's trying the Ghost too. Peanut butter. You like the peanut butter? 

Abby:

I like the peanut butter.

Jeff: 

Okay. 

Maurice: 

Which one is this one? 

Jeff: 

That one is the cinnamon. Kellogg's 20 grams. That one has the highest amount of protein. I'm going to just say this one is my favorite. 

Maurice: 

Oh, yeah. 

John: 

What does that remind you of?

Maurice: 

Cinnamon Toast.

Abby: 

It's so good. 

Maurice: 

This is good. I'm going to eat this whole thing. 

Jeff: 

That one's a good one. Yeah. 

Abby: 

I'm going to take it with me. 

Jeff: 

All right, last one is the Magic Spoon Fruity Flavored. This one has 13 grams of protein.

Abby: 

What brand is this? Magic Spoon. 

Jeff: 

Magic Spoon. 

John: 

Have you had them? 

Jeff: 

Social media. Come on, you're a big TikTok girl, right? 

Speaker 4: 

We got Apple Jacks. That's what is tastes like.

Jeff: 

Okay. 

Abby: 

Just like Froot Loops. They're so good.

Maurice: 

There you go. Froot Loops.

Abby: 

They're so good. 

Maurice: 

Yeah, I like these. Yeah, these are good.

Abby: 

These are really good. 

Jeff: 

All right. So Abby, what is your one, two, three rating? 

Abby: 

One, two, three. Three is the highest. 

Jeff: 

Nope, it's the lowest. What's your first? What's your favorite?

Abby: 

Oh, okay. Okay. My favorite's probably this one.

Jeff: 

Really? Oh, wow. That was dominating. Okay. 

Abby: 

This one. And then probably this one, the cinnamon. 

Jeff: 

The cinnamon. And then? 

Abby: 

And then this one. 

Jeff: Okay. 

Maurice: 

I would have to go this one. 

John:

Really? 

Jeff: 

There we go. 

Maurice: 

Yeah, I like the cinnamon. It's a tab between these two, but I would go with the Ghost and then go with...this one. 

Jeff: 

So we're back. So I guess overall, I think it was this one was the winner for the most, and I think these two went back and forth. 

John: 

Evenly split. 

Jeff: 

Yeah. Yeah. So again, I think part of the reason is the lower protein count. It's easier to flavor it, but I've had them all. My favorite is of course the zero, just because I love cinnamon. But definitely something you should consider trying if you're a cereal person. But want to try to be a little bit healthier, I guess.
