\"Kellogg<\/p>\n

What is Kellogg’s Limited Edition Peeps Cereal?<\/h3>\n

Forget winter. It\u2019s a marshmallow world in the springtime, and Kellogg\u2019s has joined the trend of Peep-ifying everything by creating Peeps Cereal. It consists of yellow, pink, and blue marshmallow-flavored rings and small marshmallows.<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

\"Kellogg<\/p>\n

When I first opened the box, I got a strong whiff of generic sweetness. It reminded me of Sugar Cookie Pop Tarts. The rings look exactly like Froot Loops or Apple Jacks, just with different colors, and the marshmallows are small, white pieces.<\/p>\n

\"Kellogg<\/p>\n

When I eat the cereal, there\u2019s not really a flavor to it. I can\u2019t say it tastes like marshmallows, but then again, I can\u2019t say that marshmallows really taste like anything. It\u2019s sweet enough that I enjoy eating it, but there\u2019s nothing groundbreaking here. I can totally see them swapping the pink and blue rings for red and green and calling it Sugar Cookie Cereal for Christmastime.<\/p>\n

\"Kellogg<\/p>\n

The flavor is mostly identical whether it\u2019s dry or in milk, so enjoy it however you prefer cereal. The milk at the bottom of the bowl is enjoyable, but again, I don\u2019t think of Peeps. I do appreciate that the marshmallows aren\u2019t too crunchy compared to the cereal, which is sometimes a problem with other cereals.<\/p>\n

Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

\"Kellogg<\/p>\n

I absolutely love the cheerful packaging: the spring colors, the iconic chick and bunny, the flowers made of the cereal. On the back of the box is a Candy Land knockoff, called Peeps Land (what else?). Instead of drawing a card from a pile to determine how many spaces to move, you draw a cereal piece. See, it\u2019s better than Candy Land, because you actually get something out of it.<\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

As a cereal, it\u2019s OK. As a seasonal novelty product, it\u2019s simply adorable.<\/p>\n
