WIN-It-Wednesday: Erewhon Cereal Giveaway!
Welcome to the first Win-it-Wednesday Blog! 
We all know that breakfast can be tough when you need to eat gluten-free or have food allergies. But I am one of those people that MUST eat breakfast. If I try to be sneaky and skip it, my stomach starts screaming at me by mid-morning. And since I’ve been told many times over, that breakfast is “the” most important meal of the day, I feel that I get one “important” thing out of the way first thing – just by… eating! =)
Shelley Case mentioned some fantastic breakfast ideas in her “Ask Shelley Case” column on BeFreeForMe last week. Since then, I’ve had tons of members emailing me, asking me what I eat for breakfast.
Well, one of my favorites, especially during busy weekdays is yogurt mixed with cereal. I find that this is a “portable” version of cereal and milk, and allows an easy transport to the office – a cup of yogurt in one hand and a baggy full of cereal in the other. It also gives me a dose of calcium, which my Doc has told me to eat more of. =)
One of my favorite cereals is Erewhon Gluten-free Brown Rice with Mixed Berries. I can buy it at my “regular” supermarket too which makes it super-convenient. That’s why I was more than thrilled when the folks over at US Mills, the people that manufacturer the Erewhon cereals, contacted the BeFreeForMe offices and asked to conduct a give-away!
Here’s the scoop:
Five lucky BeFreeForMe members will win the following:
– Three (3) boxes of Erewhon gluten-free cereal of their choice!
– One (1) Patagonia T-Shirt (available in Adult L, XL & Kids L)!
– Erewhon Coupon Keeper with coupons for $1 off next purchases!
To enter to WIN, just reply to this blog and tell us the three types of Erewhon cereal you would like if you are one of the FIVE lucky winners!
Make sure you reply before 12 midnight EST – Friday, 05-22-09
~ How easy is that! ~
Erewhon gluten-free cereals come in seven yummy varieties:
• Erewhon Gluten Free Crispy Brown Rice *
• Erewhon Crispy Brown Rice with Mixed Berries *
• Erewhon Cocoa Crispy Brown Rice *
• Erewhon Rice Twice *
• Erewhon Strawberry Crisp Flakes *
• Erewhon Corn Flakes *
• Erewhon Aztec Crunchy Corn & Amaranth *
* UPDATE: ALL gluten-free Erewhon cereals are also dairy-free! For more allergy info check out the FAQ page of the Erewhon website.
Once the five winners are randomly selected we will email them and ask what size shirt they would like, and also confirm the shipping address!
Good Luck!

Great Idea!! I have enjoyed crispy brown rice with mixed berries, rice twice and corn flakes.
May 20th, 2009 at 9:05 am
I love the gluten free crispy brown rice, corn flakes, and crunchy corn and amaranth. It’s so nice to have cereals that taste good and are good quality. M.
May 20th, 2009 at 9:10 am
They ALL sound wonderful! I’ve been sticking to the basic gluten free Rice Chex (and now Corn Chex too!) whenever I have a hankering for cereal. The three Erewhon cereals I would most like to try are: Erewhon Strawberry Crisp Flakes, Erewhon Cocoa Crispy Brown Rice, and Erewhon Crispy Brown Rice with Mixed Berries.
Thank You!
May 20th, 2009 at 9:10 am
Oh! I hope I win. My son with allergies is almost one and eating more and more finger foods. I don’t give my kids a lot of processed food, but sometimes it’s good to give him a little brown rice cereal while he waits on his dinner to be prepared. I’d pick the brown rice w/ berries, the plain brown rice cereal and the cocoa cereal. Thanks for the giveaway!
May 20th, 2009 at 9:24 am
Hello,
I would love to be the lucky winner of the: Strawberry Crisp Flakes, Cocoa Crispy Brown Rice, and the Crispy Brown Rice with mixed berries. Good luck to all and may the day be productive and kind to all!

My son liked the Brown Rice with Mixed Berries because anything with berries is good! On that note, we’d also like to try the Strawberry Crisp Flakes as that one is new to us. Finally, I’d love to make cocoa crispy treats with the Cocoa Crisp Brown Rice cereal.

My finance’ goes through at least 3 boxes of Mixed Berries a week. It is without a doubt his favorite breakfast food. He would be so excited if I won the Erewhon giveaway for him. He’s always committing on how much he appreciates this companies fantastic cereals, as well as their product branding. He’s a designer with an appreciation for things like good looking cereal boxes 🙂
• Erewhon Crispy Brown Rice with Mixed Berries (He’d probably want all three to be Mixed Berries)
• Erewhon Strawberry Crisp Flakes
• Erewhon Aztec Crunchy Corn & Amaranth
P.S. He is an organic fanatic! This is one of the other reasons he chooses Erewhon cereals over the competition.

I usually stick to proteins for breafkasts more, but these cereals are great to use from time to time. I would love the Rice Twice as I haven’t tried that yet, plus the Crispy Brown Rice (which I’ll use to make my homemade granola bars) and the Cornflakes (which I’ll use for one of my chicken nuggets recipes). Thanks for this opportunity!
