Cheerios

Name: Cheerios
Variation: n/a
Manufacturer: General Mills

Review: So, I've been contemplating trying some of the classic - basic - cereals I don't expect to like, so I can review them for my blog, just for the sake of completion. And I found a great way to try one without committing to a whole box - just buy a little pouch at the dollar store! That said, for a cereal like this, it's still too much. It tastes like cardboard! I think I might like it even less than plain Rice Krispies (at least they have a fun popping effect). I took inspiration from the box art and cut up fresh strawberries into it, to give it some semblance of flavor. It was still a slog getting through the bowl. It's not just that it's bland, the taste is actually off-putting. It's like the cereal version of drinking soda water. I know there are people out there who like soda water (as there are probably people who like plain Cheerios), but no thanks. Hard pass.

Rating: 🥣 (if that)
Leftover Milk: I was so eager to be done with the bowl once I finished the Cheerios, I didn't even take the time to taste the milk.
