REVIEW: Fortunate Charms S’mores Cereal

Bear in mind final yr’s Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Fortunate Charms Combine Cereal? It’s comprehensible should you don’t as a result of I additionally forgot about it and was solely reminded about it once I searched for the same product I knew existed a competing cereal firm supplied. However this new Fortunate Charms S’mores Cereal is just like the sequel to that, however with much less fashionable cereals and a much less verbose title. It’s mainly Chocolate Fortunate Charms blended with what seems to be Golden Grahams.

What’s with the “what seems to be”?

After attempting the square-shaped items on their very own, I’m unsure they’re really Golden Grahams. But it surely’s obtained to be, proper? Golden Grahams is below the Massive G tent. Why develop a barely totally different cereal when there’s already an possibility? Ugh. That is getting me labored up. I’ve put an excessive amount of effort and thought into this. If solely I had some old-timey graham crackers that Sylvester Graham made to convey down my pleasure.

I’m suspicious concerning the ridged-cereal items as a result of, whereas they do have a light taste that jogs my memory of Golden Grahams, there’s additionally a style that I’d describe as calmly charred. Look, as somebody who likes their marshmallows barely burnt as a result of it provides a novel taste and TOTALLY not as a result of I like hearth just a little an excessive amount of, that char will be a part of the s’mores expertise. But it surely’s odd to be tasting it with a cereal. Granted, I discover that uncommon taste when consuming these squares individually. However when blended with the opposite items, it’s not noticeable in any respect.

What’s barely extra noticeable within the cereal as an entire, however to not a stage that I’d like, is the graham. With most spoonfuls, it doesn’t stand out among the many chocolatey items and sugary marshmallows, and due to that, it’s arduous for me to say that that is s’mores-like. That’s particularly the case when the chocolatey taste leaks into the milk. It just about tastes like Chocolate Fortunate Charms, which remains to be magically scrumptious, however this doesn’t have a magical s’mores taste.

Fortunate Charms S’mores Cereal is an honest a part of a whole breakfast, nevertheless it’s additionally a slight disappointment. However, to make it compelling and a product I gained’t overlook, like Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Fortunate Charms Combine Cereal, I’ve been considering that I’m in an alternate universe the place Golden Grahams is the beloved square-shaped cereal that has its personal Grahamdust and Chocolate Fortunate Charms is the unique.
