Ground beef breakfast cereal wasn’t on our 2026 bingo card, but it’s here. Well, it was until it almost immediately sold out.
Meet Meaties: the brand-new, in-demand, high-protein breakfast option.
Meaties: What’s the Deal?
Meaties is a genuinely novel product: actual 100% American beef, dehydrated and coated, then made into crunchy cereal bites.
It’s designed to be eaten in a bowl with milk, just like any other cereal. You can also add it to fruit and yoghurt, or shake it into your favourite trail mix – kind of like granola.
This groundbreaking gluten- and dairy-free product comes in two different flavours: Maple Cinnamon and Chocolate Peanut Butter.
Both options are made with dehydrated beef and a range of all-natural ingredients, including raw honey, salt, monk fruit, nuts, cocoa, and cinnamon.
What are the Stats?
Each 55g serving delivers 20g of protein, 11g of fibre, and 6g of iron – all for less than 260 calories.
Importantly, they’re made from 100% natural ingredients, and there’s no bulking elements; the vast majority of each serving is genuine all-American beef.
That might lead you to think these would just taste like beef dipped in milk – but instead, Meaties are described as “sweet and satisfying” with a “hint of savoury depth”.
If you’d like to find out for yourself, you can buy a box of Meaties directly from the brand’s website for $14, but be prepared for a bit of a wait.
The popularity of the product means they’re currently working through back orders and hope to have all new purchases shipped by mid-April.
