Cereal Eats: When Classic Cereals Try New Flavors, Fail

As I've said before, classic cereals are branching out with so many new flavors. Sometimes this is a good thing, other times, a sorry miss. Two examples of the latter: Cinnamon Toast Crunch's new Frosted Toast Crunch and Honey Bunches of Oats' new Fruit Blends.

Cereal Eats: Wheaties, a Champion Among Cereals

I'm fairly certain that there's an important football match coming up (Giants vs. Mermen, maybe?) so I thought I'd be "festive." And cereal + sports = Wheaties.

Cereal Eats: Kellogg's Krave Comes to the U.S.

Krave, much like Crunchy Nut, is fresh off the boat from across the pond. It was introduced in the UK in 2010 in six varieties: Chocolate Hazelnut, Milk Chocolate, Totally Chocolatey, Chocolate Caramel, Chocolate, Double Chocolate. Just this month it was released in the U.S. Basically it's trying to be as close to cookies as cereal can possibly be.

Cereal Eats: Special K

Cereal is a danger zone for me. Any true cereal love never stops at just one bowl and the half and three-fourths a cup serving-size are just downright cruel. A few (hundred) mindless (large) handfuls can suddenly result in 1,000 empty calories without even a second thought. Enter Special K , a cereal that's dedicated its life to trying to help people eat right and lose weight.

New Cheerios Flavors: Multi Grain Peanut Butter and Dulce de Leche

Milk helped, but not a whole lot. I passed the box of Dulce de Leche Cheerios around SEHQ to make sure it wasn't my dislike alone; my suspicions were confirmed. Even for those who love the Latin American dessert, this cereal isn't cutting it.

Sunday Brunch: Granola

This recipe reminds me of early mornings on the ski hill, trying to find that balance of something that will keep me (trying) to stay upright on the slopes for the entire morning without weighing me down. Granola and milk seem like the perfect solution.

Cereal Eats: Christmas Crunch

My search for holiday cereals has come up surprisingly short. Wouldn't you assume that cereal makers would capitalize on the holiday craze? Where are all the themed cereals and special editions? Alas, I could only find a few. And the only one I could actually acquire was Cap'n Crunch's Christmas Crunch.

Cereal Eats: Momofuku Milk Bar's Cereal Milk, Soft Serve, and Cornflake Cookie

How do Milk Bar's many cereal-inspired treats stack up for a cereal fiend? In the name of research, I took a trip to Milk Bar's East Village location to find out. The contenders: Cereal Milk, Cereal Milk Soft Serve with Cornflake Crunch, and a Cornflake Marshmallow Chocolate Chip cookie. This place sure knows how to highlight cereal as the awesome and often overlooked dessert ingredient that it is.

Cereal Eats: Kellogg's Crunchy Nut, Now Available in the U.S.

Crunchy Nut has kind of flown under the radar for me. I knew it was popular overseas (actually the second most popular cereal in the UK after Special K), but just this year it was released in the United States.

Cereal Eats: Kix

I remember the fateful day when I saw my first Kix Commercial with its slogan "Kid Tested, Mother Approved." In my ten-year-old mind, I'd finally found the loophole in the cruel system of parental cereal control. Somehow, my mom actually obeyed this mantra. Kix occasionally landed in our cabinets, a brightly colored beacon in a sea of white and brown boxes. Recently, I bought a box to see if they were still as great as I remembered.
