![]() In every romance movie with a tense post-high school breakup, there must be a cautiously sublime reunion in adulthood, where things feel good, but not quite right. If you’ve managed to get your powdered sugar-dusted hands on a box of Krispy Kreme Cereal, let me know how it tastes in the comments below. For anyone reading this from Mexico, I wish I had more info to share with you about this cereal, but I could only find it on Sam’s Club of Mexico’s website. That is, until recently, when Dunkin’ returned with new ( caffeinated!) cereals, Tim Hortons brought Timbits Cereal to Canada, and now Krispy Kreme is completing this veritable NAFTA of doughnut cereals with a Mexico-exclusive cereal based on their iconic Original Glazed rings.įew fates are crueler cruller than being 2,000 miles from Kellogg’s Krispy Kreme Cereal, but hopefully Kellogg’s brings this glazed goodness stateside soon. But with the exception of old-school Dunkin’ Donuts Cereal from ’88, big-name dough-masons never really seized the opportunity to miniaturize their iconic confections. From ’80s ancients Dinky Donuts and Powdered Donutz cereals to contemporary classics like Pink Donut Cereal, Hostess Donettes Cereal, and Cap’n Crunch’s Sprinkled Donut Crunch, the dozen-or-so doughnut cereals released to date constitute a well-rounded munch-able microgenre. Of course, there’s been no shortage of doughnut-themed cereals. It’s taken them a long time, but doughnut companies across the world are finally starting to realize something: huh, cereal rings look a lot like doughnuts, don’t they? (UPDATE: Read my full Krispy Kreme Cereal review!) I racked my brain buds and taste cells trying to identify the buttery(?), fried(?!), and perhaps, greasy (‽) note that prevails over each thick ‘n’ chunky cereal ring.Īnd those are some of the best adjectives I could come up with. ![]() That’s right, the taste of Krispy Kreme Cereal is poetically elusive. No, no, I call Krispy Kreme Cereal weird because it tastes weird! And I mean ‘weird’ not in the sense that it’s bad in any way, but in the way that’s like goodness gracious, me and mine, implacable flavor’s a-ticklin’ my mind. ![]() And I don’t say that because it’s a Mexico-exclusive cereal-though zany flavors that aren’t available stateside are certainly breakfast-aisle oddballs.Īnd I don’t call it weird because it comes in such a small box-weighing in at 190g vs your standard issue 280g Froot Loops-though there’s a strange, empty feeling that comes with knocking out a whole box of cereal within like, four or five regular-sized bowls of it. Kellogg’s new Krispy Kreme Cereal is weird.
