Hostess Twinkies Cereal

Reviewed by Mr Breakfast on 1/29/2020

Twinkies Cereal doesn't really taste like Twinkies. It has more of a pleasant, simple vanilla cake flavor - nothing more.

Eaten dry, the Twinkies-shaped pieces are a touch softer than you might expect. They're still crisp, but more tender than, say, Cap'n Crunch. A light powdered sugar coating does give the smallest feeling of creaminess that you might associate with the iconic snack cake.





The cereal stays crisp in milk for upward of 8 minutes. The milk takes on absolutely no flavor from the cereal.

I found the cereal a little boring, offering nothing new in flavor. On the other hand, my 5 year old daughter found the cereal to be "amazing" and thought the cereal pieces were "cute". She said she would give the cereal a 6 out of 7. I'm more inclined to give it a 4. Splitting the difference, this cereal gets 5 out of 7 golden eggs.
