plain hot shredded wheat without sugar?

I've always heard of hot shredded wheat but never tried it. Does anyone do plain hot shredded wheat? Without sugar or anything? Just original shredded wheat and hot skim milk? Or would that be gross?

    I'm sorry. Yes, it sounds gross. I could not eat it w/o splenda or sugar.

    However, to each his own. You might enjoy it.

    My grandmother used to make this for me...

    She'd take one square of shredded wheat (those big size ones), and pour hot water over it. Let it sit for a few mins then drain off the hot water and pour your milk over it. She always put brown sugar on too but that's optional ;-)

    Hope that works!

    This sounds lovely. I never put sugar on my shreddies. If you need a little sweetness try the honey and nut shredded wheat.

    These latter ones are also delicious eaten dry... Don't knock it... try it.

    I used to eat HOT shredded wheat all the time - without any dairy products - If you read about the horrible chemicals in any dairy products, -- hormones, herbicides, insecticides, antibiotics, COW antibodies and COW genetic material, you are better off without the dairy- as one Internationally applauded Scientist said, Man was never intended to drink COW milk, or eat COW products - in South America, the people, who have not built up an immunity such as in Europe and North America, will get violently ill if they eat COW milk. Many people in Europe and N.A. have hundreds of heatlth issues from Bovine reactions, and don't know it!

    On a cold day, I just poured boiling water from the kettle over the cereal and drained it- it gets mushy of course, but it is 100% real food. You can try dried blueberries, currants, raisins, cranberries, and other dried fruit for flavour - they are 100% real and can add a bit of flavour without artificially processed SUCROSE Dextrose, Glucose, Maltose, Galactose, etc. being ADDED. I now use a mix of as many grains and seeds as possible - something like BOB's RED MILL Muesli which has 5 or 6 grains and dates and raisins - RAW, and its great... I am up to 40 to 50 grains and nuts that I buy bulk and mix. If I cook them, I do not add any fruit or sweet stuff. You are what you eat - what are you made of? I have a friend in Toronto who eats Sugar Frosted Marshmallow Coco Puffs covered in Chocolate Milk followed by a Chocolate Pop Tart, and then goes off to school... I think there is a coupon inside for 20% your next case shipment of RITALIN, since, for some reason, the kids are bouncing off the walls by the time they get to school... I wonder what would happen if they tried REAL food?

    I cannot eat cereal at all without sugar.

    If you are used to eating cereal, even hot cereal without sugar, you might like it.

    Try it and see.

    Everyones tastes are different.

    MILKSHAKE: 1 cup fat-free milk ½ to ¾ cup frozen fruit (without sugar) Use blueberries, strawberries, or mixed fruit Add sweetener and vanilla to taste. Rich, delicious! BLEND using a blender. Add the milk, sweetener, and any seasonings, then add the fruit slowly until desired thickness. VARIATION: Add nonfat yogurt for a richer-tasting shake. This shake helped me lose all of my weight. During a HOT summer I had two cups of fat-free milk and different berries every day. It was SO filling and delicious! BLUEBERRY YOGURT “ICE CREAM” 8 oz. plain yogurt ¾ to 1 cup blueberries Add sweetener to taste Several dashes of ground nutmeg and cinnamon, to taste Add spices & sweetener to yogurt, mix in blueberries. Mix. Blue color will develop in yogurt. Stir after a few minutes. Ice crystals will form around the blueberries. Tastes like chunky frozen yogurt. OPTIONS: Use frozen raspberries or strawberries. YUM! I use to regularly eat half gallons of ice cream. Finding this substitute allowed me to have a rich, creamy, and chunky frozen dessert without all of the extra calories, fat, or sugar! You end up having about two cups of dessert and it is nothing more than one cup yogurt and a cup of fruit! I have this for a snack at least 3 - 4 times each week. Yum! INDIVIDUAL MUFFIN PIZZAS -A quick lunch/dinner, or snack. Toast halves of bagels or English muffins under broiler or in a toaster. Cover each with tomato slices, tomato paste and fresh onion rings. Sprinkle with Italian seasonings. Top with shredded low fat Mozzarella cheese and a mushroom cap. Return to broiler until cheese melts and bubbles. Serve hot.

BANANAS NORTH POLE 3 ripe bananas, sliced 1-2 T. orange juice concentrate Dash of nutmeg 1 teaspoon freshly grated orange peel (for garnish) Slice the peeled bananas and put in a plastic bag in the freezer. When the bananas are completely frozen, put in a blender, a few at a time, and blend until smooth. Spoon the frozen pureed bananas into 4 sherbet glasses. Top with a dash of nutmeg and grated orange peel. Garnish with a fresh flower from the garden and any other leaves or foliage that would be attractive.

OVEN-ROASTED FRENCH FRIES By Lonnie Isaacson, R.D. 2 large potatoes, washed, peeled or unpeeled 1 teaspoon oil salt & cayenne pepper, to taste OPTIONAL: ½ tsp. each of paprika & cumin Heat the oven to 475ºƒ.

Set the potatoes on the sheet in a single layer. Bake 10 minutes. Turn the strips. Continue baking, checking, and occasionally turning until strips are golden and tender (10-20 more depending on the size of the strips.) Sprinkle with salt and other spices.
