After the Strawberry Cheerios and Banana Nut Cheerios of yesteryear, both have joined forces. There are also heart-shaped pieces, which makes me wonder if they\u2019re trying to get a jump on Valentine\u2019s Day. Bold move, General Mills.<\/p>\n
To me, Honey Nut Cheerios might be the perfect cereal. There\u2019s a kind of spectrum that runs from bran flakes on the healthy end to Cocoa Puffs on the other, and Honey Nut Cheerios artfully balances right in the center like a world-class gymnast. The taste is just sweet enough that you feel like you\u2019re getting a bit of a treat. Now I don\u2019t know if Honey Nut Cheerios would really be considered healthy by nutritionists (who would probably recommend a breakfast of wild-caught salmon instead) but darnit, it FEELS healthy.<\/p>\n
So the question here is whether or not these are as good as HNC. Short answer: no.<\/p>\n

Strawberry Banana Cheerios have two types of pieces, pink and plain: they\u2019re also in the shape of either hearts or traditional Cheerios \u201cOs.\u201d The pink are strawberry flavored, while the plain are, in theory, banana-flavored. While the pinks provided that standard artificial strawberry flavor you\u2019ve encountered elsewhere, the plains had an aftertaste of popcorn, which is weird.<\/p>\n
When I had the cereal in a bowl, I was able to taste a little bit of banana flavor. The pieces kept their integrity while I was eating and didn\u2019t turn to mush, but considering how fast I can scarf down cereal, that\u2019s a low bar to clear.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I put a banana down next to my cereal knowing that next time, this cereal was going to get banana-fied, whether it wants to or not. This may be a crime.<\/p>\n

From the back of the box I have learned that, sadly, a car powered by strawberry juice did not in fact drive across the state of Texas. Disappointing.<\/p>\n
Strawberry Banana Cheerios are inoffensive, but they are lacking in flavor. That\u2019s okay though, because BYOB (Bring Your Own Banana).<\/p>\n
