Froot Loops Color Mixups Cold Breakfast Cereal, Fruit Flavored, Kids Snacks, Original (10 Boxes)

These types of cereals are more of a snack food than a healthy breakfast. There are 10 8.2 ounce boxes in this order. Each box contains 6 servings of 150 calories each or 210 calories with the addition of 3/4 cup of milk (I assume that is whole milk).I personally consider this a snack food even though it is fortified with vitamins, especially since the first ingredient is corn meal and the second is sugar. Nevertheless, these taste very good and my rating is based on that.The ingredients are degerminated yellow corn meal, sugar, whole grain oat flour, modified food starch, contains 2% or less of hydrogenated vegetable oil (coconut, soybean and/or cottonseed), salt, maltodextrin, wheat flour, natural flavor, red 40, yellow 5, blue 1, yellow 6, BHT for freshness.The vitamins and minerals are vitamin C (ascorbic acid), reduced iron, niacinamide, vitamin B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride), vitamin B2 (riboflavin), vitamin Bl (thiamin hydrochloride), folic acid, vitamin D3, vitamin 812.At the current price of $55.17, this comes to $5.52 per box which is competitively priced.UPDATE: I gave two boxes to my neighbor and he loves this. He almost ate an entire box in one night and rates this 10 out of 10 stars.UPDATE Aug 18, 2022 - I finally got feedback from my Post Lady and my boyfriend. They both ate a box of this and wanted more. The general consensus is that this is absolutely delicious! Everyone but me rates this 5 stars or more!

If you're looking at this listing, that means you are contemplating a pretty serious life choice: buy one box at a time at the store or skip the lines and order over 5lbs of Froot Loops. Do it, order the case.Why? Think about it: no judgmental old ladies behind you in line wondering why a 37 year old man is purchasing 10 boxes of what is generally considered a kids cereal. No prying questions trying to figure out if you even have kids or if your coping mechanism is drowning yourself every evening in a milky bowl of floating, sugary, life preservers.Sure, they may have mixed up the colors on the little rings to try and add some pizzaz, but this is still the same cereal you took comfort in as a kid. Just don't think about the fact that toucans have a life expectancy of about 20 years and Kellogg's has been using (roughly) the same Toucan Sam since 1963-- is he still alive by some miracle of modern medicine or have they been sneakily replacing him? Has Toucan Sam outlived his lovers and is some sort of avian version of Tom Hanks' character in the Green Mile-- or is Kellogg's deceiving consumers and tossing the old Toucan Sam's to the curb so everyone thinks the mascot of Froot Loops is constantly young and vibrant??You're asking too many questions. Buy the case, buy some milk, and don't think about it.

These Froot Loops look really fun and taste good too. They’re very sweet, so they’re more of a treat rather than something I’d pick for a child’s breakfast. The price is a big issue for me, as my local red big box store has the regular Froot Loops (not this Mix-Up version) in a 10oz box on sale for 2 for $6, and one of these 8oz boxes works out to $5.50, so the value is not good, IMO. The flavor of these is a bit different compared to the traditional Froot Loops, so I’d honestly rather just buy the regular box for the better value. Not trying to be a downer, as the quality is good, but the swirly flavor design doesn’t justify the price for me.

3.5 total, 5 stars for the cereal itself and 2 stars for valueFirst off, this cereal is great. While it does taste a little different than what I remember Froot Loops tasting like, it arrived fresh and in date, something that is super important for breakfast cereal. As far as flavor is concerned, I would have to agree with another reviewer that there really isn't a discernable fruit flavor, mostly just sugar. Maybe it's just been a while since I've had regular old Froot Loops, or my mind playing tricks on me, but the flavor and texture are a little different than the original cereal. Other than that, it's exactly what you'd expect from any other Kellogg's/Froot Loops cereal.As far as cost is concerned, I think it's a bit outrageous. I understand you're paying for convenience here, but the price difference between this cereal and its grocery store counterpart is insane. Each of these boxes is 8.2 oz., rather small for a typical cereal box, and they cost $5.52 each (or 67.3 cents per oz.). For comparison, a larger 10.1 oz. box of Froot Loops is $3.48 (or 34.5 cents per oz.) at Walmart. What's even crazier is you can get a family size 18.4 oz. box at Target for only $4.29 (or 23.3 cents per ounce)! So, this cereal costs 44 cents per oz. more than the regular old grocery store Froot Loops. For that reason alone, I would recommend purchasing this cereal somewhere else! Shopping around definitely pays for itself in a situation like this.

to be completely honest, these taste like cardboard. they don't taste like normal fruit loops at all. i'm not sure what the goal was supposed to be with these new color mixups, but honestly i don't like them and neither do my kids. the malt o meal brand fruit loops taste better than these do. really disappointed in the taste of these.
