<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I\u2019m sure marshmallows were added to make Post\u2019s Banana Pudding Nilla Cereal not so Nilla.<\/p>\n
Can you imagine looking down into a bowl that looks like the lopped off tops of bald Muppet heads? Do cereal pieces that could be the needle in a Banana Republic khakistack look appetizing? The marshmallows make this cereal\u2019s appearance go from \u201cyawn\u201d to \u201cyahoo.\u201d So remember kids: Marshmallows make many munchies more memorable.<\/p>\n
Doing it this way makes sense because Nilla Wafers are the Triscuit of breakfast cereals. They\u2019re fine to eat by themselves, but they\u2019re better with other ingredients. <\/p>\n
The cereal pieces do look like mini Nilla Wafers. But then again I imagine it\u2019s easy to make crunchy, boring tan discs.<\/p>\n
Putting the bag\u2019s opening around my nose and mouth like it\u2019s an oxygen mask that dropped from an airplane\u2019s ceiling allows me to inhale a strong scent that instantly brings banana ice cream to mind. We are off to a wonderful start. Oh Buddha, is this a reincarnation of Banana Frosted Flakes?<\/p>\n
That cereal was discontinued decades ago, but my taste buds feel as if this comes close. There aren\u2019t dried fruit bits like the Kellogg\u2019s cereal, but the natural flavor is there and it\u2019s as strong as its aroma. So maybe it\u2019s Banana Frosted Flakes\u2019 spiritual successor. <\/p>\n
But I should disclose that I\u2019m one of those people who enjoys banana-flavored products (Hello, yellow Runts), so my enthusiasm for this awesome euphoric cereal might be a little inflated.<\/p>\n
However, here are a few things that take some air out of my inflated thoughts. The flavor fades a bit when it\u2019s in milk for too long, and, sadly, there\u2019s no strong banana-flavored milk at the bottom of the bowl.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
So what the about the marshmallows that prevent this from looking like a bowl of sand clumps? They don\u2019t add anything to its flavor. I alternated between marshmallow-strewn and marshmallow-less spoonfuls, but they taste the same. The marbits can\u2019t compete with the cereal\u2019s fruity flavoring. But I don\u2019t mind that because the banana is all that\u2019s really important.<\/p>\n
I love this cereal. And now I must pick up a box of Post\u2019s Nutter Butter Cereal so that I can combine this with it.<\/p>\n
