While some cereals churn out new varieties all the time, Toucan Sam has mostly been content to stay in his lane, or should I say loop, for sixty years. There have occasionally been marshmallows added, or the rings swapped for hearts for Valentine\u2019s Day, but the fruity essence has remained largely the same until now. A new iteration, Cocoa Loops, has arrived on shelves and is slated to be a permanent addition to the Kellogg\u2019s lineup. This feels overdue, but perhaps it took this long to perfect things?<\/p>\n
The box features a delighted Sam along with his niece and nephews, stirring up some liquidy-looking chocolate batter that looks like it should become brownies, but the crew is somehow able to use their feather-fingers to form it into tiny hoops. There\u2019s a pleasant cocoa scent upon opening the bag, not overwhelming but enough to let you know it\u2019s a chocolate cereal. When eaten on its own, the cocoa flavor doesn\u2019t come through as much as I\u2019d like, and I don\u2019t enjoy the chalky experience of eating it dry.<\/p>\n

Cereal is one of the easiest foods to assemble, since it basically only requires you to pour it into a bowl and add milk. But I know there are a lot of people out there who, due to laziness or personal preference, sometimes skip the milk component. If you\u2019re looking for a cereal to snack on by the handful, keep looking cause this isn\u2019t it. But that\u2019s not a deal breaker, let\u2019s try it with milk!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Cocoa Loops fares so much better with this addition. When given the chance to mingle with milk for a few moments, the corn and oat-based loops soften to a nice texture and aren\u2019t quick to sog. The chocolate flavor is more pronounced, and it\u2019s a big improvement, but I still don\u2019t think I\u2019d choose it over already established chocolate favorites in the aisle. The box declares that it \u201cmakes milk chocolatey!\u201d, and as with most chocolate cereals, if you truly want to experience chocolate milk flavor and not just milk that\u2019s a slightly darker shade, you\u2019ll have to let that bowl sit around for a while.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
I\u2019m unsure if it\u2019s intentionally goofy in the name of being \u201cloopy,\u201d but I have to mention some bizarre aspects of the box art. We have one nephew sounding like a Bluey knockoff by introducing himself as Pluey, and according to a heart-shaped craft project on the kitchen shelf, these kids refer to their uncle as \u201cUncle Toucan Sam\u201d. I get that they can\u2019t call him Uncle Sam without sounding like they\u2019re talking about the familiar red, white, and blue-clad figure, but something about this moniker seems strange and redundant. Cocoa Loops with milk are a perfectly acceptable but not especially remarkable cereal. Without milk, I think these are for the birds.<\/p>\n
