Holly’s Junk Food Review Series : Cereal

July 12, 2017 By Holly

Happy Wednesday everybody! and welcome to another installment of my Junk Food Review Series.  Recently I mentioned my lifelong love of cereal, and that it is always a staple on my cheat days because having just one measly serving is just not going to happen.  I have my favorites (hello Golden Grahams & Lucky Charms) but I’m always on the lookout for new ones to try. 

First up, we have the new Cinnamon Frosted Flakes…


look at all of that cinnamon goodness…

I have to preface this review with the fact that I absolutely love Frosted Flakes, so I really had high hopes for this one.  From the moment I opened the box I could totally smell the cinnamon, which is a good thing because, yum.  This cereal has all of the awesome sweet crunch of regular Frosted Flakes but the addition of the cinnamon totally gives this such a wonderful warm toasty taste, and it totally stays crunchy.  This cereal is a new favorite and it definitely gets a 10 out of 10, I absolutely love this cereal!

Next up we have a cereal with apparently no real name, just Keebler Cereal, which should have given me an idea at the quality of this particular item.

seems promising…

Alrighty, I was initially intrigued by the whole cookie and chocolate thing, and there really wasn’t much of that to be found in this cereal, like at all.  When I say that this was basically mildly chocolate flavored cardboard with milk on it, I’m really not exaggerating.  This is hands down one of the worst cereals I’ve ever had.  I really didn’t think something that was supposed to be cookie and chocolate flavored could taste so bad.  Y’all, I didn’t even finish the bowl if that tells you anything, this cereal gets a 1 out of 10, womp, womp.

Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you all have a wonderful day!

    The limited edition Girl Scout flavors are pretty bad, too. I don’t mind so much the Thin Mints attempt, so long as I don’t include milk in the mix. The cereal itself isn’t too bad and may be a good base for a cream pie or cheesecake.

    General Mills has also dabbled into Blueberry Toast Crunch, again not bad, but better if you skip the milk… Possible base for some sort of dessert. *Hint *Hint

      I’m glad you told me, because I have almost bought the Girl Scout flavors so many times (and I do love me some Samoas haha), and me and Thin Mints are not friends so definitely wouldn’t have tried that one. Awesome, I have the Blueberry Toast Crunch on my list to try and now I’ll have to start thinking of something to maybe make with it 😉 Thanks!
