CEREAL REVIEW: Mini-Wheats: Little Bites: Chocolate


Mini-Wheats: Little Bites: Chocolate might already have the title for most colons in a cereal title, but can its name hold up to its colon numeroscity?

No. It cannot. Here at Pacific Midwest, we sampled the latest offering from Kellogg's and its Mini-Wheats brand of awesomeness, and we were left thoroughly disappointed.

Approaching this cereal, we though "Mini-Wheats are good... and chocolate is good. We are approaching taste nirvana." However, when the taste seems like Sonny the Cuckoo bird had unmentionable sex with a cardboard box, we were less than enthused with the outcome. The chocolate didn't come through, the mini-wheat didn't come through. This leaves you with a crap taste in your mouth and nothing to write home about. Mini-Wheats: Littles Bites: Chocolate thoroughly qualifies as anti-delicious, surprising us all.




The only good side is at 14.5 ounces, the box seems rather small, but then I realized Kellogg's charges the same price for the much better standard frosted Mini-Wheats. As a result, I can only give this cereal 2 out of 5 cereal grains.

I was hoping the mini-mini-wheats were gonna be awesome. Maybe the honey nut flavor is better.

i know this is beating an old dead horse, but i feel i must give my two cents for anyone that might stumble across this post.

this cereal is amazing! unlike other chocolatey cereals, this cereal is a more mellow chocolate flavor, but still a strong flavor. i think it tastes like a krispy kreme chocolate cake donut. most other chocolately cereals are too dessert-like, and leave your milk tasting like old chocolate milk. sure thats great if your a kid, but what about us chocolate lover adults who can't handle that sweet overload in the morning? this cereal fills the void. it's my new favorite cereal.
