Does anyone know where I can purchase Alpen? Alpen is a brand of muesli cereal.

Thanks! :D

Alpen is made by Wheetabix. Here is the Wheetabix USA site where you can find where to buy. You will probably have to use your fingers to do the walking to find if the store actually has Alpen.

I have walked my fingers down to stubs! :shock: I finally called the company that makes Alpen. They said their "Store Locater" was for their main cereal, "Wheetabix." They didn't have a clue as to sold the Alpen. I know I can buy it on the internet, but it would be nice to find it in a store somewhere. So, if anyone remembers where they have seen it, please let me know. Thanks! :D

The red box is the original cereal, the blue box is the same but has less sugar.

Just want to let you know that I found a health food store that was able to order the Alpen for me. They ordered the Alpen in the blue box (no added sugar) which I'm sure will be fine. The only difference between the red and blue boxes is 3 grams of sugar - about 1/2 teaspoon per serving.

Purchased at:

Naturway Foods
16268 Whittier Blvd.
Whittier, CA 90603
562/943-9736

They also have a store in Anaheim, Downey, and Lakewood.

The Whittier Naturway Foods store is only 2-1/2 miles "down the street" from me. I picked up 2 boxes this afternoon. :D

Sometimes the hardest thing to find is right under your nose.
