The Cereal Report: Peanut Butter Toast Crunch

One of the greater tragedies of the last decade was the loss of one of my favorite cereals, French Toast Crunch. It was still around at first, it just just wasn’t the same, having its formula changed drastically several years ago, and finally being discontinued since the new formula was shitty. Since then I was very skeptical towards any of the Toast Crunch cereals, sort of aloof and even somewhat protesting of them. That is, up until I read that General Mills was bringing back Peanut Butter Toast Crunch, which existed many years ago for a short period of time, and which I had never been able to try. Considering Meg and I love peanut butter enough to have covered it in Midnight Snack already, you can imagine my elation upon finding this bad boy in stores once again.

Also the series of words

Does he really need to be pointing to the jar of peanut butter? We get the idea.

Snack Report: Wholly Guacamole 100 Calorie Packs

avocado

Do you love avocados and guacamole as much as I do?  Of course you do, they’re delicious!  Avocados are great because they’re both tasty and good for you since they’re full of the good kind of fats as well as vitamins C, E, and K.  The main downside to avocados (and therefore guacamole as well) is that they oxidize and get all brown and mushy super fast after being cut in to.  That means you usually have to use all of an avocado at once, and finish guacamole fairly quickly after opening it.  And sometimes, you just want a little bit.  This is where the Wholly Guacamole 100 calorie packs come in.

The Cereal Report: Post Mini Cinnamon Churros

I dunno what it is about miniature versions of things that’s awesome. All the best novelties in life are just smaller versions of stuff. Pizza Bagels, Shetland Sheepdogs, the Game Boy Micro, we can’t get enough of them. I had heard years ago of a churro-themed cereal, but never had seen it in stores until I was recently tipped off to their being in stock at a local Path Mark. During a (failed) trip to buy video games, I decided to stop in and buy this cereal as a sort of consolation prize to my inner bawling child which was hysterical at the fact every store in the area was sold out of Luigi’s Mansion.

The Cereal Report: Kellogg’s Caramel Crunchy Nut

Remember that glowing review I gave to Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut a few months ago? Remember how I was borderline masturbating to that cereal throughout the entire post? Well then I found out there was a new entry in the Crunchy Nut line. As you can imagine I was excited.

But then I tried it. The first mouthful was possibly one of the most disappointing moments in my entire life.

The Cereal Report: Kellogg’s Crunchy Nut

Certain things just go together and make sense, before you even experience them in person. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to determine it would be awesome to win the lottery on your birthday, or eating pizza while watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, or win the lottery while having sex.

To everyone who ever wondered what it’d be like if you combined Frosted Flakes and Honey Nut Cheerios:

The adult in me appreciates the bright, morning-themed box. The child in me laughs at the word “nut”.
