What's New with Kellogg's & CONTEST! (~OVER~)

Hello!  This Arrived on My Front Porch!

Whenever a box arrives from Kellogg's, I know that my family is in for a real treat!  So you can imagine our thrill when a big delivery arrived right on Valentine's Day!  

Inside the box was new Kellogg's Mini-Wheats Centres cereal, new Kellogg's All-Bran Cranberries & Clusters cereal, new Kellogg's Special K Cracker Chips (BBQ & Zesty Southwest flavours), new Kellogg's Special K Granola Bars (dark chocolate & peanut butter and chocolate), and new Kellogg's Nutri-Grain Soft Bakes (Blueberry Muffin & Banana Bread Bars flavours)!

At breakfast time, I was really curious about the Mini-Wheats Centres, that had raspberry filling inside.  If you look at the photo below, you can see I cut one open to see the inside.  I'm all about reading labels these days, and I was impressed that it was made with 100% whole grain and listed as being a high source of fibre.    The cereal is particularly high in iron (50% the daily value), thiamine (90% the daily requirement with milk added), manganese (80%), phosphorous (30%), magnesium (25%), zinc (25%) and niacin, vitamin B6, folate, and pantothenate all at 20% daily value!

I tried the new Mini-Wheats with my kids, and we all liked it!  The filling really tasted like raspberry jam!  One side of the shredded wheat rectangles were coated in sugar, so that added some sweetness.  Add to it the raspberry filling, which brought a nice fruity taste to it.

I was also very curious about the new Kellogg's All-Bran Cranberries & Clusters cereal which is "made with natural wheat bran, to promote your digestive rhythm."  It is a great source of fibre (28% daily value), iron (50%), thiamine (80%), manganese (35%), magnesium (30%), phosphorous (25%) zinc (25%) and niacin, vitamin B6,  and pantothenate (20%).  Some of these values assume a 1/2 1% cup of milk has been added.

I sampled the cereal, and found it be not too sweet and not too bland--a perfect combination.  In the photo below, you can see the dried cranberries and sweet multi-grain clusters.  I thought that it was a nice addition to All-Bran cereal, which I generally find too plain on its own.  The new Kellogg's All-Bran Cranberries & Clusters cereal attracted my husband's interest, who often enjoys adding nuts and raisins to his breakfast cereal.

Needless to say, the new Kellogg's Special K Granola Bars (dark chocolate & peanut butter and chocolate flavours) were a big hit!  I first found out about the dark chocolate flavour bars in my last Kellogg's post, here, but the peanut butter and chocolate flavour was just as good!  I have now put them aside as "mom's own stash", as I like that they are 110 calories per snack!  That is perfect for when I want to treat myself, but do not want to go overboard.

Check the new Kellogg's Nutri-Grain Soft Bakes (Blueberry Muffin & Banana Bread Bars flavours)!  They were a big success with my kids, who really enjoyed both flavours.  I liked that each prewrapped portion was only 130 calories, so I can feel good about offering this to them as a snack.

Do I have to say much about the new Kellogg's Special K Cracker Chips (BBQ & Zesty Southwest flavours)?   They're both great to snack on, and 80 calories per 18 chips.  The Zesty Southwest flavour was my favourite, with BBQ a close second.  I doubt that anyone will be disappointed with these chips, so give them a try!
