Our days regularly start with cereal during the school year. That is what the girls want so who am I to argue? ;) And while we have tried a great variety of brands, I do try to keep our choices limited to ones that have some nutritional value as well as keep the cost down. Let me tell you how thrilled I was to be sent 3 bags of MOM Brands‘ NEW Spooners line in their most popular varieties!Here is what the company has to say about this great line of cereals:
Wholesome. Delicious. And sensible. What more do you need? You deserve more. Especially when it comes to your breakfast cereal. That’s why we’ve packed so much healthy goodness into our 12 layers of shredded wheat tastiness!
Your family can have it all. What makes Spooners® such a delicious source of fiber? We leave out artificial flavors, artificial preservatives, high fructose corn syrup and hydrogenated oils, so there’s more room for what you really want in your breakfast bowl – nutritious, delicious, wholesome ingredients.
Look for our innovative packaging in the box section of the cereal aisle. It’s the environmentally friendly stand up bag.
Like they said, this newest line comes in stand-up gusseted bags, which sit on the shelf like a box, yet contain 75% less consumer packaging waste than comparably sized bag-in-box ready-to-eat cereals.
Each bag of Spooners contains biscuits with flavored morsels baked into the middle. The biscuits are based on the MOM Brands award-winning, proprietary 12-layer biscuit, and are made with whole grain wheat. Most varieties also contain triticale – a cross between rye and wheat, with higher levels of essential amino acids. The new cereal is free of artificial flavors and preservatives, with no hydrogenated oils or high fructose corn syrup. All varieties carry the Whole Grain Stamp from the Whole Grains Council and have at least five grams of fiber per serving. Spooners are available in the following flavors:
- Mixed Berry Multigrain Spooners: Made with blueberry morsels baked inside and a just-sweet-enough raspberry frosting
- Cinnamon Multigrain Spooners: Made with 43 grams of whole grains per serving and cinnamon morsels baked inside
- Original Multigrain Spooners: Each serving has 55 grams of whole grains and 7 grams of fiber for a no-nonsense breakfast
- Frosted Multigrain Spooners: A 12-layer biscuit with a touch of sweetness baked inside, along with 44 grams of whole grains
- Chocolate Spooners with Chocolate Chips: For the kid in all of us…a chocolate fix that’s good for you
I guess the real question is, would I actually buy MOM’s Spooners cereal bags?
The answer is a resounding YES! They are available at most local grocery stores including our small town Brookshire’s and at a very reasonable price.

Now, in case you were wondering just who this MOM Brands is, they are Malt-O-Meal®! That’s right. In 2012 Malt-O-Meal® became MOM Brands®? A simple name change, but one that reflects the company they are today. Part of offering a better breakfast is delivering it in a way that is as gentle as possible on the earth and their sustainability goals are at the forefront of every thing that they do.

These cereals are just as good as the more costly boxed cereals.
