These were/are very good. Used Wheaties brand cereal, and it gave it a nive sweet flavor, I think these are much more tastier than the the 'plain old rice crispy squares' Thanks Connie K!

Although I was looking forward to making this recipe, I was very disappointed. The bars were very grainy/gritty due to the brown sugar. Perhaps the sugar step is incorrect in instructions.

I have to give this 5 stars because not all "diet" recipes are this good! I had to sub bran flakes for the wheat flakes (probably picked up even more fiber and maybe less points?!) and they still were a very satisfying treat for a chronic dieter with a sweet tooth!
