Our Strawberry Creamy Wheat

It’s long been said that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but I don’t think we’re alone in thinking that breakfast also deserves the title of BEST Meal of the Day. And a big part of the reason we feel this way? Our delicious Strawberry Creamy Wheat. There may be nothing better (or more comforting) than digging into a warm bowl of creamy wheat cereal brightened by the tang of freeze-dried strawberry goodness! But the benefits of Hibernate’s Strawberry Creamy Wheat don’t end at being delicious and comforting. Read on to find out why this tasty breakfast dish has continually found its way into our hearts, stomachs, and long-term food storage kits!

Why We Love Freeze Dried Strawberry Creamy Wheat

There are so many reasons to love cream of wheat cereal that it’s hard to narrow it down, but we’ll hit on some of the top reasons why we’re so happy it’s in our Hibernate food storage meal kits.

Creamy wheat is delicious.

Okay, there is nowhere to begin besides how good Hibernate’s freeze-dried Strawberry Creamy Wheat tastes. It’s got a smooth texture that plays well on its own or with additions (more on that to come!), it’s warm and comforting (especially in times of distress but also just on a Friday), and has just enough freeze-dried strawberry flavor to make you feel like it may just be summer all year round. And we’re not alone here—Hibernate’s freeze-dried Strawberry Creamy Wheat has been a fan favorite for years!

Creamy wheat is nutritious.

The benefits of creamy wheat nutrition have been debated for years, and there are plenty of food myths out there, but we’re sticking with the facts. Creamy wheat can pack a punch in terms of vitamins and minerals, and that’s incredibly important to us at Hibernate. We want to provide meals that offer nutritional value, so we love a complex carb breakfast that keeps you full longer, can help with digestion, and supports healthy blood sugar levels. (A side note for anyone with a wheat allergy—be aware that, as the name suggests, our Strawberry Creamy Wheat is in fact made of wheat middlings!)

Creamy wheat is easy.

The ease of opening a packet of tasty Strawberry Creamy Wheat and knowing you’re getting a high-quality meal simply by adding water is a top priority around here. Whether you’re in an emergency situation or you simply want a quick breakfast any day of the week, speed and simplicity can truly be lifesavers! But the ease of our freeze-dried creamy wheat cereal goes beyond its preparation. It’s also super simple to store and easy on a tummy in trouble–just a few more reasons why you’ll fall in love with such a yummy breakfast food.

Why We Added Strawberry Creamy Wheat To Our Food Storage Kits

So why did we decide to add Strawberry Creamy Wheat to our food storage kits? We originally added it to our long-term emergency food kits to increase nutritional value, boost variety in the meal long-term options we offer, and because it’s so dang good on so many levels (easy to store, tasty to eat, simple to prep). We also keep it around because we know what backlash we’d receive from our customers if they could no longer get their Strawberry Creamy Wheat fix!

All of our short- and long-term emergency food storage kits come equipped with several packets of Strawberry Creamy Wheat, from the one-week food storage bucket to the six-month emergency food kit and all the way up to the year supply of freeze-dried food from Hibernate. (But don’t worry—our obsession over this dreamy breakfast cereal hasn’t totally blinded us. There are plenty of other delicious and nutritious meal and snack options provided in those kits, too!)
