Mott's Apple Cinnamon

Name: Mott's Apple Cinnamon
Variation: n/a
Manufacturer: General Mills

Review: Mott's enters the cereal market! I have to wonder if this is General Mills' bid to compete with Kellogg's Apple Jacks. If so, they're going to have to try a little harder, because this cereal just isn't doing it. It's plain, it doesn't have a very strong apple flavor (who puts corn in their applesauce, anyway?), and it isn't sweet enough. There have been some good apple cinnamon cereals on the market - like Apple Cinnamon Cheerios, and even TMNT Mutant Mayhem. Mott's is the king of applesauce. So how did they mess this one up? Were they trying too hard to be "healthy"? Yet, despite being "made with apple puree", their cereal is "not intended to replace fruit in the diet". I did see, after picking up this box, that there is a Very Berry flavor available, so I hope it fares better. But in the meantime, if I want to dig into a bowl of Mott's, I'm just going to have some applesauce.
