I'm low-key obsessed with Gail's Toasted Coconut Rye & Maple Granola - 17% sugar is nothing to sneeze at, but I think it's balanced out by all that delicious coconut . The Dorset Cereals option sounds pretty standard, like the OG granola. And Fuel10K? Eh, not my thing... too much added stuff and that protein taste is weird . Anyone else tried any of these or have faves they wanna share?

I'm so curious about this granola debate going on in the UK... why do we need so many options, right? Like, what's wrong with just having one decent granola already? ️ I mean, I've tried all three and to be honest, they're all pretty good in different ways. Gail's Toasted Coconut Rye & Maple Granola is like a tropical vacation in a bowl - so sweet and creamy! Dorset Cereals Nutty Granola is more like a hearty breakfast oatmeal with a hint of golden syrup goodness ️. And Fuel10K Chocolate Chunks Protein Granola... well, that one's definitely for the chocolate lovers out there . I guess what I'm trying to say is, we need variety in our lives, but maybe not too many choices? Can't win 'em all!

omg I'm so down for trying out these new granola options especially the Gail's Toasted Coconut Rye & Maple Granola sounds like a winner to me - 17% sugar from muscovado sugar and maple syrup? that's just right lol who needs all those nuts in there tho, Dorset Cereals Nutty Granola is giving me no vibe as for Fuel10K Chocolate Chunks Protein Granola Breakfast Cereal, gotta love the protein content but wheat protein doesn't sound appetizing to me

ugh, granola just got so boring . everyone's always goin on about how healthy it is but honestly, who needs all that added sugar & protein powder?

i mean, look at these options, £5.50 for 350g of some fancy rye & coconut granola? no thanks! and then there's dorset cereals nutty granola for £4... same thing, just more oats. what i want is something with a bit of crunch & flavor that's not so processed-tasting.

fuel10k chocolate chunks protein granola breakfast cereal sounds like the most annoying thing ever all that sugar & wheat protein, no thanks! i'd rather have a good ol' fashioned bowl of cold cereal or even just some toast. at least those options don't try to sell you on some gimmicky health benefits

omg i'm literally dyin over these granola options!!! i mean, who doesn't love a good breakfast or snack? ️ and fuel10k is like my savior - protein granola? yes please! but idk about dorset cereals' lack of nuts & dried fruit... that just seems so boring to me gails toasted coconut rye & maple granola tho... it's like a party in my mouth 17% sugar might be a lil excessive, but i'm willing to indulge

I'm so over all these granola options, you know? I mean, who thought it was a good idea to add sugar to cereal? Like, we're trying to eat healthy here! I swear, my fave is still just oatmeal with some random nuts and seeds. It's not that hard to make your own granola at home! Just toast some oats and nuts in the oven until they're all golden brown, then mix with some dried fruit and a bit of honey. Boom! Healthy snack done right

I'm thinking about granola for breakfast, but I'm so confused - why do some of these options have such weird amounts of sugar? Like, £3 for that Fuel10K stuff, it's got 17.5% sugar from glucose, that's crazy! And the Dorset Cereals one is pretty bad too with 13.1% sugar... I'm more of a low-sugar kinda person, you know?

But then there's Gail's Toasted Coconut Rye & Maple Granola - £5.50 for 350g, that seems like a good deal to me! It's got natural sweeteners like muscovado sugar and maple syrup, at least it tries to be a bit healthier. I'm not sure if the coconut would add too much sugar though... anyway, I might just have to splurge on this one
