I bet you could name this cereal in a blind sniff test with no hesitation. The cereal pieces appear to be caked with a purplish dust with little bits of actual pureed blueberry.<\/p>\n<p>The flavor is not as strong as I expected. The first few bites give you a quick blueberry hit, but it soon fades as the dust dissipates into the milk.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/Blueberry-Cheerios-Cereal-Games.jpg?resize=600%2C800&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Blueberry Cheerios Cereal Games\" title=\"Blueberry Cheerios Cereal Games.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>There are no artificial flavors, which I assumed and appreciated.

I drank the second half of the bowl, cereal pieces and all.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019ve tried most of the fruit Cheerios (Banana, Peach, Berry, etc.) and I honestly think they\u2019re all superior. Blueberry is still a solid cereal, but I\u2019d put it near the bottom in terms of Cheerios flavors.<\/p>\n<p>I know we\u2019ve had Fruity Cheerios in the past, but I would love a \u201cFruit Medley\u201d mix consisting of all the previously mentioned flavors.
