It\u2019s Resolution Season, where people rich and poor, young and old, thin and unthin alike proclaim that they will stop smoking, quit cussing, read more, hit the gym, drink less booze, floss daily, spend less on the Lotto, and various other acts of self-improvement\/self-harm reduction. For many, \u201ceat healthier\u201d is a popular pledge, and why shouldn\u2019t it be: with the exception of unsalted raw vegetables and nuts, everything we eat is basically garbage. But if you\u2019re in this camp \u2014 either because your doctor is telling you that you\u2019re fine to avoid making 5-year-goals or just because you\u2019ve got a pair of Jordache hip-huggers you\u2019re hoping to rock by St. Paddy\u2019s Day \u2014 Cheerios has got your back.<\/p>\n
2024 has the oat circle cereal brand imbuing it popular cereal with veggies (the new Veggie Blend line featuring Apple Strawberry and Blueberry Banana), and the one I tried that is filled with nuts \u2014 the Maple Cinnamon Hearty Nut Medley.<\/p>\n

The Maple Cinnamon Hearty Nut Medley Cheerios Cereal \u2014 heretofore known as MCHNMC\u00b2 \u2014 features \u201cCrispy Flakes, Cheerios Cereal, Flavorful Almonds, and Hearty Pumpkin Seeds.\u201d That\u2019s right, THOSE pumpkin seeds. And look \u2014 if you\u2019re a little perturbed by the idea or simply not sold on their inclusion, fret not: there were, like, eight seeds in my entire bag. That\u2019s it. I don\u2019t know if this was a production issue or if it\u2019s par for the course, but for something that made my eyebrow initially arch mistrustfully, I wasn\u2019t sad there weren\u2019t more.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
There were plenty of almonds, however, which is a more common and accepted health cereal nut. They were fine; requisitely tasty and with a crunch that held up in a standard milk-soak. Where this cereal really shined, though, was with the flakes and Cheerios. The flakes were the surprising winner from a cereal that mostly deals in rings. Thicker than Wheaties and smaller than Total, this seemed like a new flake to me. (Though I\u2019ll be the first to admit there are other flake-heavy cereals in the General Mills catalogue with which I am unfamiliar – Raisin Nut Bran and Fiber One, for example.) Whatever it was, it was stellar — crispy with the barest hint of cinnamon. The Cheerios had the same amount of flavoring \u2014 enough to add a little excitement to the start of my year, but not enough to make me question if I was really making a healthy choice.<\/p>\n

While I didn\u2019t notice much in the way of \u201cmaple,\u201d I still found this cereal to be a pleasant, healthy-ish alternative to, oh, say, the new Trix that is stuffed with frosting. (Which, don\u2019t get me wrong, I\u2019m sure is sinfully delightful.)<\/p>\n
MCHNMC\u00b2 was a nice surprise to start my year, and sliding into my Bugle Boys by spring makes the choice that much sweeter.<\/p>\n
