New Product Review:

Nut Cluster Crunch Cereals

Reviewed by Mr Breakfast on 8/29/2011

The Bear Naked brand has been around since 2002. You might already be familiar with their modest-size bags of boutique granolas. Their granolas are quality products, but they've always been priced too high for the average cereal consumer. This is the first time that Bear Naked has given us a boxed product at a reasonable price... and it's about time.

I tried two varieties: Honey Almond & Maple Nut. I liked them both.

The cereals consist of crunchy, hearty flakes that maintain their crunch for several minutes after being doused with milk. Flake-sized clusters of oats and nuts offer an additional lighter crunch and some variety in texture from spoonful to spoonful.

As for flavor, I preferred the honey almond variety. The maple nut version has just the slightest burnt-maple undertone. Both cereals taste familiar. They're not doing anything new, but they are doing something right.

These cereals are tasty, crunchy and satisfying. Give 'em a try. I think you'll like them.
