The packaging says it has 75% more fibre and 85% more beta-glucans than just oats (beta-glucans help lower cholesterol reabsorption) so I was keen to see what it was like.
The ingredients are Wholegrain Rolled Barley Flakes (51%) and Wholegrain Rolled Oat Flakes (49%). You can see the darker barley flakes mixed in with the oats
The cereal is quick-cooking, and only took about 4 minutes in our microwave.
I topped it with yoghurt
and peaches with banana & mango puree
Breakfast is ready!
The barley adds a slightly different flavour to the oats but it's hardly noticeable, especially when it's topped with cold, creamy yoghurt and sweet fruit
And it's definitely more filling than oats - bonus!

Damn - now I want to try that one and I only just bought Oats yesterday! I love those little fruit tubs as well.

Damn I love breakfast :) After your last post about the Black Swan yoghurt, I finally tried it and have converted- thankyou! Its slightly higher in fat but lower in sugar than what I was having (Yoplait natural) but a whole lot thicker mmm.. and lactose free? awesome!!
Hi Andrea, I find they're very handy in the morning when I'm in a rush - just open the tub and dump it on my oats!
Hi Steph, I think breakfast is my favourite meal of the day. Glad you like the yoghurt!
Great to hear you are enjoying the oats and barley 1st! They certainly do fill you up a bit more than plain oats with the additional fibre and protein from the BARLEYmax. Would love to know what you think of our other products. Have you tried them?
Thanks for your lovely review, Charlotte! Hope you're continuing to enjoy our cereals. Please feel free to give us feedback on our website, www.goodnesssuperfoods.com.au or follow us on Twitter! (@GoodnessFood)
Hi Kara, thanks for your comment! I'm still enjoying the oats and barley (I have it in some form most days for breakfast) so haven't tried any of the others yet. Cheers, Charlotte
