Idk why a crap ton of ppl hate on it, it’s actually really good and not overly sweet and the texture of the bran and raisins is also enjoyable. Cereal isn’t meant to be loaded with sugar it’s not healthy

I will be downvoted to oblivion for this but although I love them, I think there are to many raisins in them.
Raisin Bran is legit the best cereal. The crunch and then the raisin chew is just….🥹 amazing
Yea I agree , it’s my favorite cereal bc it has good flavor and different texture. Even as a teen it was my favorite.
But the health part I don’t agree with , every cereal is just a big bowl of carbs , Raisin Bran maybe less but still basically a bowl of carbs
Agreed. I get the double pack at Costco for me and my father
If it’s the only cereal around I’ll eat
It. If I have other options though, not really
I warm up my raisin bran
Wasn’t a fan as a kid. Nowadays, I love it.
Never would have thought that since it’s only been around for 100 years.
I guess it’s an unpopular opinion, but it kinda surprises me. Raisin bran is very tasty. Just eat it quickly before it gets soggy.
Froot loops and raisin bran both have 14g of sugar per cup. Yes 7g of those come from raisins, but it’s not the less-sweet cereal it’s marketed to be
I imagine it’s good if you like raisins. But not everyone does
I like both Raisin Bran and Total. The flakes are just so good!
I always liked it but often avoided it as a kid so my Dad didn’t run out.
Holy shit, is this an actual opinion? Not a false factual claim? It is!
Fuck raisins though
i don’t like the chew part 🤷
Preach!! Continue to spread the good word!!
It’s my husband’s favorite!
I prefer raisin bran crunch but yeah, is good shit.
My grandpa ate it every single day, and lived to be 97! I always think of him when I eat it.
With sliced banana in it, especially.
According to some random chart I found. Raisin Bran is the 11th most popular cereal in the US, making this quite the popular opinion.

Not sure this is an unpopular opinion, it’s probably the best mainstream brand cereal available other than maybe frosted shredded wheat
One of my favorites
I’d rather have just the Bran to be honest.
Wheaties are better. Total is better.
I actually stopped eating it regularly because it’s a deceptive “healthy” alternative, there’s actually a decent amount of sugar in some of them.
Raisin Bran crunch is where it’s really at
It does have a fair amount of sugar, however you subtract the fiber content from the carbs and get net carbs. So some brands aren’t that unhealthy if you’re limiting your carb intake to that meal. Milk also has sugar. Lactose. So that needs to be considered as well.
Raisin Bran is full of sugar too
Yes! Raisin Bran is one of my top favs.
try Cheerios Oat Crunch FTW
Raisin Bran and Kellogg’s s pecial K are my favorite. Give me some lightly Frosted Flakes with a dried fruit in it any day and I’ll be happy.
Raisin Bran is actually one of the sugariest cereals, but yes, it’s fucking good.
Finally, a great take.
Raisin bran is so fucking good.
Backed!!! When the bran to raisin ratio right 👌
Raisin Bran CRUNCH is the way to go.
Perfectly balanced cereal, Raisin Bran is peak.
Post or Kelloggs?
Raisin Bran is one of the highest sugar content cereals there are. You just don’t realize it because it comes from the raisins.
It is arguably better nutritionally than something like fruit loops or lucky charms, because of the bran, which probably also helps slow the insulin response a bit, comparitely. But it is by no means a healthy cereal or breakfast.
I enjoyed it even as a kid
Dude, I’m here for Raisin Bran. Trader Joe’s has one of the best versions. Such a great balance of crunch and subtle sweetness.
Grape Nuts are an over correction to the bran side of the equation though. 0/10
My favorite cereal. I like it when the flakes get mushy.
Have you ever checked the nutrition facts? It’s absolutely loaded with sugar.
Too many raisins, I use another cereal to ‘water it down’.
I don’t like rasins, but I’ve always liked those bran flakes and would pick out the rasins.
It goes soggy too fast. Crispy Wheats and Raisins was the superior alternative.
It’s almost like different people experience some things differently.
I like it. Though I have to make sure I’m buying the right one, because I see a lot with honey in it.
So I like Raisin Bran but it has to be the crunch version. My issue is that it has so much sugar you might as well be having Lucky Charms.
I can’t stand raisins. They ruin everything they are in ..
RBC ALL DAY BB
I love that shit.
It seems like a good idea in theory, but…
Raisin Bran Crunch slaps
My problem is that it gets soggy so fast. Also, no raisins for me.
Hell Yeah it is.
I used to hate it because
Too many raisins
Gives you da shits
Now I just remove a ton of raisins and I’m good
Delicious but actually does have a lot of sugar
