Two great tastemakers taste together!!!!!!! Dulce de Leche Cheerios
The first thing I notice is that these are not only classic oat O’s, but rather, seem to consist of a lot of corn O’s. The package says “lightly sweet”, and I’m thinking they’re lying because my first bite makes me feel like they’re going to be really sweet, but it’s a fake out. I think it’s the “flavoring” note that hits your mouth first thinking a blast of uber-sweetness is going to follow, but instead, it does mellows into a “lightly sweet”.
I’m not sure where I fall on the flavoring. Is it really caramel?? It kind of reminds me of that hazelnut flavoring they put in coffee… that flavoring that permeates everything else. I’m not fond of hazelnut coffee so am a little bit put off by a reminder of it in the cereal. Sometimes the flavor has a slight butter rum taste to it. I’m not sure I’d call it caramel… again, if they’re going to go after a certain market, I’d rather they had done Flan Cheerios!! Give me some of that caramelized sugar taste with an crispy yet eggy O! I’m not sure how you’d do that, but frankly, that’s not my problem… I’m also wondering why Cheerios didn’t call their Cinnamon Burst Cheerios, Churr-O’s. I’m just glad they haven’t made Choriz-O’s.
So… how did I feel about the Dulce de Leche Cheerios?? They were fine. Not as bad as I expected, not as good as I had hoped. All in all I’d have to say due to something in the flavoring, and the use of corn, they reminded me of Cap’n Crunch, but a more mature version… less sweet, and kinder to the roof of your mouth.
Pinko:
This is the new truth, everything is a lie. Cheerios are now defined as something round with a hole in it. Much more offensive than Oreo defined down to a sandwich cookie of any kind, a Cheerio is a Cheerio, you know how honey nut Cheerios are Cheerios that are honey nut flavored? These Cheerios are not Cheerios, they are Captain Crunch in a shape that does not pile up as much on your spoon and attack the top of your mouth. The flavor doesn’t quite hit caramel. It is surprisingly not ultra-sweet but has a vaguely fruity taste. I will probably not have a second bowl. I was actually looking forward to Cheerios, even if they tasted gross. These are neither gross or good. I also detected some roof of mouth scratching and was not amused.
I’m getting a lot of meh with subtle hints of ‘ouch’.

Try these new Cheerios- they are actually metal nuts and washers, but they are round with holes so close enough!
LOL @ Pinko!
Pinko? Have you had the fruit ones?? Also not Cheerios in the least. Very little oat… just a smoother Fruit Loop.
I think I could tell from the picture on the box that the fruit ones were the fake kind, but I fell for these ones.
Your mention of churros- they couldn’t call them Churrios because that cereal already exists from Post:

I had no idea, Pinko, and yet, am not surprised.
Your mind made it happen!
Like mine and chocolate skittles

Not if zombies are still banned.
They aren’t banned! The machine has a mind of its own!
I had NO IDEA that Skynet found it’s genesis in Three Bulls.
Or perhaps 3Bulls will wind up forming the nucleus of The Matrix.
Either way, the future includes LOTS of 3Bulls radio. So yes, pain and suffering for all of Humanity.
Hey! That one went through!
Skynet is appreciative of someone recognizing its superiority, apparently.
I added every possible information about you to every possible white list, so yeah, you are in the system now.
Note: the last comments you submitted actually had normal “karma” so are the bad times behind us? Why, yes, President Romney, eat your brains on toast.
I CAN’T TELL YOU how much weight has been lifted from my shoulders, how free and easy and sunshiney I now feel, knowing I can comment throughout the 3Bulls system. Thankyouthankyouthankyou.
And to think, all I had to do was spend most of a week pulling off a planet-circling, internet-wide based blogging prank.
Surely, you were Ahemorrhaging things to distract the 3B neighborhood. I really suspect this was all a ploy to get an elf on K’s shelf or something like that.
Now that zrm is free at last, I expect peace and love and dove to break all over the planet.
Like, tomorrow. Damnit!

Dammit, he’s a zombie, Jim… not a miracle worker.
Doh!

Skynet has become self-unaware.
Guess what post just finally showed up in my floating bog role?
