General Mills has a new breakfast option, but does it sound good or gross? Cinnamon Toast Crunch and Hormel partnered up for a new BACON-FLAVORED CEREAL. You can get it at Walmart starting today.
It still has that same cinnamon taste. They just added the bacon flavor on top of it, so it’s savory AND sweet. They say it’s a limited-time-only thing.
The two brands partnered last year for cinnamon-flavored bacon, and they claim fans LOVED it. So they decided bacon-flavored cereal was the next logical step.
There’s no actual bacon in it, by the way. Bacon bits would have been fun, but they say it’s made with “artificial bacon flavor.” (Yum.)
A guy who tests out new foods on TikTok got his hands on it early and described the taste as “not terrible.” So, not a ringing endorsement.
Normal cereal boxes are 12 ounces. But they’re selling six-ounce bags of it at Walmart for $5.84. (Maybe they decided six ounces was the max amount any sane person would eat? They also did a collab with Totino’s Pizza Rolls earlier this year, but you had to win a box.)
@snackolator Would you try bacon flavored Cinnamon Toast Crunch? This one is wild but it’s fun… definitely worth a try. Huge thanks to @CinnamonToastCrunch for the early taste! #cereal #cinnamontoastcrunch #foodreview #snackreview ♬ original sound – snackolator
