My favorite cereal in the WHOLE world! Why?

1. Wholesome
2. You can pronounce everything in the ingredients list
3. You can count all the ingredients on two hands
4. There isn't 10 lbs of sugar in it (only 5 grams)
5. It doesn't taste like cardboard. Just the right amount of sweetness
6. It doesn't use fake sugar
7. No weird kinds of preservatives.
8. No corn syrup or high fructose corn syrup. This is like the parabens: both camps stand their ground, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.




It's not organic, but then again it doesn't claim to be organic and then only have about 3 organic ingredients in addition to regular crap you find in the regular cereal aisle.

I love it. Most "healthy" cereals either taste gross, look gross, taste like cardboard, or is loaded with sugar or the fake sugar (dextrose, sucralose, saccharin, aspartame, etc). This looks like Crispix and Chex, but it's wholesome, with just enough sweetness to it. It's great.

It's about $3.20 or so. It sounds like it'll break you bank, but because it doesn't have a lot of shit in it, it'll fill you up with just a small bowl. And also, remember most of the fake and artificial ingredients are cheaper than REAL ingredients so in a sense, this is a better deal that the stuff you find in the regular cereal aisle.

Try it out and tell me what you think. It's ok to tell me that it tastes like shit. This blog is "got anything else to say" for a reason :)
