Kellogg's Jumbo Multi-Grain Rice Krispies Cereal

Kellogg's Jumbo Multi-Grain Rice Krispies CerealI have never been a fan of the airy and unsatisfying regular Rice Krispies (although Snap, Crackle and Pop have always had my heart). Well, now I can officially tell the boys that I genuinely like one of their products: Jumbo Multi-Grain Rice Krispies. When they ramped up the size of the infamous Rice Krispies, they also ramped up the density. Therefore, instead of a bunch of airy bits of nothing, you are presented with a bowl (or hand) full of more substantial, but still light and airy, cylindrical cereal pieces.

NUTRITION FACTS
Serving Size: 1 cup (27 grams)
Calories: 90
Total Fat: 0%
Saturated Fat: 0%
Sodium: 170 mg, 7%
Protein: 1 gram
Carbohydrates: 24 grams
Fiber: 3 grams, 11%

Furthermore, this new (and, in my opinion) improved version is graced by a touch of honey, which makes all of the difference in the world. Actually, this cereal tastes 99% identical to Honey Kix, with Kix possessing a slightly different texture and shape.

Each 1 cup (27 gram) serving of Kellogg's Jumbo Multi-Grain Rice Krispies Cereal provides a mere 90 calories, no fat, 3 grams of fiber (11% of the daily value), 8 grams of sugar and 1 gram of protein . The ingredient list contains nothing out of the ordinary (rice, flour, sugar, cornmeal, honey, oil, salt and added vitamin) and manages to be on the shorter side.

I paid $2.50 for an 11.2oz box of Jumbo Multi-Grain Rice Krispies and I could not be more satisfied with my new find. Not only is it yummy with a splash of milk, but it also makes a great snack straight from the bag, added to a trail mix or mixed with other cereals.

Gigi Reviews didn't like them though and neither did Chow's Super Taster, so tell us what you think. Have you tried this before? Do you like it? I know one thing, Snap, Crackle and Pop will definitely be visiting my house again very soon.

Looks yummy! I'll be keeping my eye out for these ones! Do you think they'd taste good in rice krispy treats?

I found a few blogs that mention they used it in Rice Krispt Treats and say it came out well (like here).
