Turtle Cereals (healthy breakfasts from Belgium)
Turtle Cereals is a great breakfast cereal company just over the border in Belgium. One wonders why no-one can come up with something more interesting here, instead of the same-old, same-old flavours and unhealthy cereals that we’ve had for years on supermarket shelves. Not only these cereals organic and Fair Trade, but the boxes are also recycled.
Recycle packaging at supermarket bag bins, if your council does not recycle. Keep these cereals away from young children and pets due to nuts, dried fruits, chocolate etc. Read more on food safety for people and pets.
This company was founded by a husband-and-wife team. He grew up in Belgium where he loved long forest walks, and she grew up in Spain and Denmark.
Both moved to Belgium, and named the company after the creature that goes slow, focusing on slow-release healthy breakfast options, rather than fast sugar cereals, as sold so much today.
The unique range includes:
- Carrot Cake Porridge (cake for breakfast?)
- Cocoa Pillows with Hazelnut (tastes like nutella)
- Colour Loops (more nutritious than Cheerios)
- Granola Nuts & Seeds
- Date, Fig & Apricot Porridge
- Chocolate & Banana Porridge
- 6-Seed Porridge
- Multi-Grain Flakes with Chocolate
- Dark Chocolate Cornflakes
- Oat Crunchy Dark Chocolate
You can shop in bulk online. But it’s better really to ask your local stores to stock this brand, as they will get cheaper rates. A good reason to shop at community shops and co-operatives, as they will be more likely to order in what you want!
