<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Hello my hunnies!!! It's been a year and half hitaus and I can only blame my own disorganised self (I am an aries after all) for the lack in cereal content. But don't worry, I haven't completely turned my back on the cereal world. I will however be completely honest with you all and admit that there have been a few occasions over the past 18 months where I have succumbed to a 'spoons full english. But in the grasp of a new year and even a new decade, it's time to reflect upon old habits and create new resolutions, mine just so happened to be more adventurous but also more grounded, and so here I am, fulfilling my resolution just 6 days into 2020; reviving my pre-existing blog through a brand new review...</span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Granola isn't my usual bag for breakfast but while home for Christmas I opened the cereal cupboard to find an unopened bag of Spoon Dark Choc Zing granola lurking behind my dad's Weetabix (good taste pops). Being a big fan of Coco Pops I thought I'd give a different chocolate cereal a try, given that Christmas is the time for indulgence and all, and especially considering the catchy name. The actual granola is chocolate flavoured and the zing comes from the surprising addition of "kick-ass lime", rather unconventional but it doesn't not work. There are even almonds thrown in for added crunch. Some people like to eat granola with yoghurt (or a plant based alternative), but I prefer milk as I find the combination of cereal and yoghurt to be a touch too dry as it gets stuck inside your mouth with little liquid salvation. Although that's just my personal preference. Like most other granolas, Dark Choc Zing takes a decent amount of time before getting soggy while simultaneously flavouring the milk. It's chocolatey but not sickly sweet and the almonds offer some textural difference. I would say it's the perfect option for any adult who feels embarrassed by eating chocolatey children's cereal but still has that craving.</span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">September has rolled around once again (funny how that happens each year), children are back at school <strike>thank fuck</strike> and with PSLs FINALLY back in store (yaaas queen) this means one thing, and one thing only - sweater weather has made its annual return! No longer must we slather factor 50 all over our bodies. No longer must we endure the discomfort of brushing up against fellow sweat-ridden passengers on the tube (metro/subway). No longer must we be ridiculed for the comfort, ease and, lest we forget the fashion credentials of socks and sandals. However, for those self proclaimed summer babies who long for #endlesssummer and suffer in cooler climes, I have chosen to review a cereal that simultaneously nods farewell to the hazy days of summer while also looking forward to the return of cool, crisp cuffing season. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I'll confess, I went away this summer (did you not see the Instagram of me and my pink inflatable flamingo?!) but please, fellow cereal enthusiasts, I implore you not to look upon this post as a means to brag about my tan - read factor 50 to understand the lack thereof - or the life changing experience and affinity I felt with the locals. No, I spent most of my time in Lisbon riding the trams and eating and drinking my way around the city's various establishments. While I'm an advocate of going to work on a bowl of cereal, I do like to mix up my routine while on holiday because, well, it's a holiday and that's apparently the prescribed norm on holiday, a means to escape the daily grind. My Portuguese breakfasts consisted mostly of pasteis de nata which are undisputedly delicious, yet unfortunately are not conducive to the healthy lifestyle I lead back home. For this reason I couldn't help but sneak a box of the finest cereal money can buy into my suitcase to sample back home and satiate my #wanderlust. Even with my embarrassing lack of mastery of the Portuguese language - hello Brit abroad - I was able to deduce that <i>estrelitas</i> means 'little stars', and who doesn't want to start their day shining bright like a star in the words of Rihanna?! This particular variety of Estrelitas are flavoured like a Maria biscuit, something I have never tried per se, yet in cereal form the Maria biscuit translates into a mighty fine bowl of breakfast: a strong base with a demi-sweet overtone. </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Granted, some of the flavour ends up rubbing off on the milk, but that just prolongs the Maria experience. The aesthetics of this cereal are noteworthy. Nestle have chosen a biscuit theme and have 100% stuck to said brief; the cereal itself is a wonderful golden brown colour imitating what I can only imagine to be the original golden bake of the Maria biscutt.</span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Estrelitas fare well in the soggy trials, keeping their wonderful galaxy shapes for an impressive 10 minutes. For me, Estrelitas sit on the cusp between summer and winter: with a nod to my time spent in Lisbon, the cereal itself defies seasonal change and, in my opinion, can be enjoyed at any time of the year. Overall I was wholeheartedly impressed buy this celestial cereal and will definitely be probing the depths of the internet to get my hands on another few boxes to keep me cosy this autumn. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">One need only scroll through Instagram and Facebook to find a plethora of beauty, health and fitness bloggers all imparting their tips and tricks for the smoothest contour and trimmest waist. Never being one to shy away from such avant-garde trends, I was delighted to stumble across a hybrid variant poised on the boundary between grains and gains; and so my dear readers I have chosen this week to review Shreddies Max Protein.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">With 10g of protein per serving, Shreddies Max Protein is bound to build booty in an instant. The cereal itself consists of a granola base with pieces of broken Shreddies incorporated there within, leading to a rather crunchy granola. The cereal takes at least 10 minutes before becoming soft enough to eat without making it look or feel as though a tiny hamster has used your mouth as an exercise wheel. This is obviously not the best cereal to choose if in a hurry. On the plus side, however, those who are slow eaters yet have an aversion to soggy cereal will rejoice at the time afforded to savour every last bite. This granola come Shreddy mash up is rather sweet, calling for a smaller portion size than usual; a welcome discovery given the meagre size of the box. Thankfully, one of the redeeming features of this cereal is that it really is rather filling. The one thing I still cannot get my head around, however, is how a breakfast cereal can contain more protein than a bacon and egg roll? One box in, I am yet to see any real muscle growth. If anyone can shed some light on this query, please do not hesitate to get in touch. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">One thing I am fed up of hearing is the overused, tired and clichéd expression, </span><i style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">New Year, New You</i><span style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">. Permanent change is not a simple process whereby you suddenly wake up and are a whole new person. These things take determination, patience and perseverance; three considerations Nestlé most certainly did not observe in the creation of their New cereal, Cinnamon Oat Crisp.</span></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: '"courier new"', '"courier"', monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">With the end of the festive period approaching, and the whirlwind that was 2016, I had a sudden desire for something new in my life, and believed Cheerios Cinnamon Oat Crisp would satiate this hunger. The base for this cereal is a cinnamon flavoured oat flake, topped with processed oats and some form of honey drizzle. If this wasn't enough, these flakes are muddled up with the classic Cheerio. This, contrary to Nestlé's claims, is not a new cereal. This is a lazy attempt at innovation, a merging of two previously existing cereals. What's more, Nestle's melange does not work. The textures of the flake and the cheerio are polar opposites, and in this case, opposites do not complement one another. I'm certain any discerning 10 year old would be able to devise a more successful cereal collaboration compared to this atrocity. This cereal takes about 30 seconds to go soggy upon contact with the milk, not my understanding of an 'oat crisp'. As for the flavour, cinnamon and oats is hardly groundbreaking. Yes, it's a time-old classic, but this cereal was advertised as </span><i style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">new</i><span style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">, and I am failing to see where Cheerios Cinnamon Oat Crisp offers me anything I haven't tried before. Hopefully next time I try something new it will have been more carefully conceived, so I do not run the risk of being thoroughly disappointed every morning I stare longingly at my breakfast bowl.</span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">With the Dunhill Golf competition in full swing, St Andrews has been inundated with a host of "famous" faces, non of which I am able to recognise (sorry Hugh Grant, but you weren't in the last Bridget Jones film, you can't expect a girl to recognise you based on a portrait that's 10 years out of date - look where that got Henry VIII). I like to seek comfort, however, in the fact that I will never not be able to recognise a cereal on the shelf that I haven't yet tried. For this reason I was draw to Shredded Wheat Honey & Nut, and here I am now, telling you all about my new encounter.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: '"courier new"', '"courier"', monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">Shredded Wheat seem to be the grown up version of Shreddies; Nestle tell you exactly what they are without the fun, abbreviated name that appeals to children whilst simultaneously encouraging them to eat a healthier breakfast - excluding obviously the frosted and chocolate versions 'cause they're cool! Shredded Wheat Honey & Nut, therefore, could be Nestle's grown up answer to the chocolate and frosted Shreddie. Considered healthy by many but still a little bit "Nutty but Nice!" For those who aren't quite ready to make the leap to the classic, Honey & Nut Shredded Wheat are the perfect transition cereal. The honey nutty flavour is just right, not too much, not too little and there are even real nuts, evoking feelings of autumn and roasted chestnuts. In fact, this honey and nut topping acts as somewhat of a shield against the milk, ensuring that these Shredded Wheats take slightly longer to go soggy in comparison to their unprotected counterparts. Nonetheless, milk is highly recommended (whether you opt for dairy or a plant based alternative) as without they are dryer than the Sahara desert. Aesthetically, this cereal is fairly pleasing. The Shredded Wheats themselves are somewhat beige in colour, but I guess that's to be expected as wheat is naturally beige and we should be thankful that Nestle haven't added a plethora of colourings. To compensate, however, they have opted for a tonal scheme of warm oranges and browns on the box that, in my opinion, complements the honey and nut idea.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span lang="EN-US">Firstly I must apologise
for the year long hiatus. My only excuse is the fact that my millennial
tendencies led me in the belief that other foods, such as kale smoothies and
avocado on toast, were perhaps a better start to the day than a humble bowl of
cereal. However, having explored all options fully, I have returned full circle
realising that nothing compares to you, cereal.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 20pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span lang="EN-US">With the leaves on the
trees turning a wonderful array of amber and pumpkin spice taking over every
flavour combination in any food outlet, it's difficult to ignore the first
signs of autumn. In a celebration of the turn of the season, I myself have
decided to delve into the flavours of fall having been recommended Nature's
Path Organic Gluten Free Nice and Nobbly Granola. The bright orange packaging
was enough to entice me on a chilly September morn. While those with an intolerance
to wheat will naturally gravitate towards this wonderful gluten free option, I
fear that the amount of sugar in this granola could turn even a bumble bee
diabetic. The cinnamon flavouring is overpowered by these high levels of sugar,
which is somewhat of a shame in my opinion as cinnamon is the essence of
warmth, the edible equivalent of a cosy tartan blanket. Nonetheless, this
granola stays true to its nobbly namesake with generous helpings of almonds,
pumpkin seeds and raisins, as promised on the packet. As for the crunch factor,
this granola turns from nice and nobbly to soggy and wobbly in a matter of
seconds, however, the seeds, nuts and raisins make up for this adding extra
crunch, chew and intrigue. Perhaps the lack of glutenous fibres could explain
this granola's tendency to go soft so soon, but in my opinion it doesn't affect
the overall experience.</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 20pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Having previously reviewed standard Cheerios, I thought it was time to treat myself to the honey variety. Honey Cheerios take a good few minutes to go soggy, maybe even longer than regular Cheerios as they have an extra layer of honey for the milk to penetrate. The flavour remains bafflingly intact despite the milk tasting strongly of honey towards the end. My one qualm would be that the 'o' shapes were a lot smaller than I remembered. I am not sure whether this is due to Nestlé's cut backs and profit margins after the credit crunch or if I had just romanticised their size in my head...</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">There are some people who believe that being with friends and family is more important at Christmas time than things of actual value. I, however, have always been a firm believer of the latter and was delighted when I received my "Adorable Lindt bear and friends advent house" in the post. Top work there Mum!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">For the month of december I gave up cereal and transitioned, with a surprising amount of ease, onto chocolate each morning. Day one was a little disappointing with only a mini Lindor 'truffle', at least each one is lovingly made by the swiss chefs just like in the adverts. The second day definitely made up for it though when I received a little Lindt teddy bear. Over the whole period I got 6 mini chocolate snowdrops with a creamy double milk filling, 6 Lindor mini chocolate truffles with a smooth melting filling, 5 Lindt Chocolate Napolitains, 3 Lindt Mini Bears, 3 Lindt Gold Reindeer and finally, this morning, my calendar gave me a full sized Lindt Teddy Bear, which I half ate before I took the picture, hence why his face looks like he just had a botched batch of botox, I couldn't resist. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Overall I would say that the calendar was a success and I actually looked forward to waking up and discovering what chocolate I would get each morning. Could I eat chocolate every day for breakfast? Most definitely, but I must admit that I'm super duper excited for my next bowl of cereal! I would give the calendar a 4/5 as the chocolates were evenly distributed in size. I'm already looking forward to next year's.</span></div>

9-5; what a way to make a living. Occasionally my mind wonders elsewhere,
usually to the heady days of summer when there were no time constrictions
placed upon my daily habits and my most important query was whether or not
Dolly sung live. At 7am, when faced with another day in my glamourous Parisian
life of making PowerPoint Presentations about the major competition in the packaging
world, sometimes it’s only the prospect of trying a new cereal that can really
motivate me to embark upon another day.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="color: #666666;">Dare I say
it, but In France, cereal has one major competitor each morning, Nutella.
Therefore when I found Chokella, a chocolate-hazelnut flavoured cereal, you can
imagine my delight. A cereal combing my two favourite breakfast foods; it would
be insane to not try this. Chokella has the distinctive hazelnut smell of
Nutella, but unfortunately smells a lot more flavoursome than it tastes so I
was a little disappointed when my first spoonful didn’t quite meet my
expectations, it isn’t an unpleasant flavour, it could just benefit from being
a little more powerful. On a more positive note, the cereal per-se is in the
shape of mini toasts, a novelty that is still exciting, even at the age of 20. However, unlike toast, it keeps it’s crunch upon impact with
milk, and takes a good 15 minutes to go soggy. And for those of you who don’t
like cereal flavoured milk, this is the cereal for you. Despite my own previous
beliefs, the milk retains its milk flavour once you have finished the cereal.
Chokella is closest you will ever get to a cereal version of Nutella on toast,
but is it the perfect breakfast cereal? That’s hard to say.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

cereal fans, or should I say ‘bonjour </span>céréale<span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;"> fans’. I am so sorry that I have neglected you
for so long but I have been rather busy trying to forge my new life in France and
stumble my way around the French supermarkets in search of the cereal aisle and
decent milk! Having lived off a mixture of croissants, Nutella and baguette every
morning for the past 2 weeks, I was really craving some cereal and was
therefore delighted when in Franprix, after about 5 minutes of broken ‘franglais’
on my part, and several looks of incomprehension and bemusement on behalf of
the employees, I was finally shown to the aforementioned sacred aisle. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

this is a breakfast cereal and not a psychiatrist or magic genie, but while
tucking into my breakfast at 6:30 in the morning I felt unusually chirpy for
that hour. Perhaps it was just the temporary euphoria one experiences when
trying a new cereal for the first time, or perhaps it was due to the wonderful mélange
of honey and hazelnut in the same bowl and the sunshine yellow colour of the
cereal per se. However, after about four or five spoonful’s, this very sweet
cereal begins to get a little sickly. On the plus side, the longer the cereal
stays in the milk, the softer th<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">e hazelnut </span></span></span></span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">centre</span><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"> becomes but the outer shell keeps its crunch, c’est formidable!!!

final note is that despite the sweetness of the cereal the milk remains milk </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-GB;">tasting</span><span lang="EN-US" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">, an added bonus for those who don’t like their

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">It's been over two months since I have posted anything and I am deeply apologetic. So far, this summer has been extremely busy; I not only helped and witnessed my own dear grandmother's near breakdown when moving her from North Yorkshire so she can be closer to our family down south, but my parents also decided to move house and I have therefore been living off microwave meals without access to a fridge, fully functioning kitchen and internet access. However, having jetted off to Mallorca, I have regained access to all of the aforementioned luxuries, and a whole host of foreign and exciting cereals to titillate my tastebuds for the next few weeks. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">Walking through the cereal aisle in the Spanish supermarket 'Mercardo' was more stressful than passing through security at Terminal 5. There was an array of completely different cereals to back home and some even had smarties and jelly babies thrown into the mix. Given that it was the start of the holiday, I decided to maybe tone down the extravagance a little and opted for the Céréales Fourrées
au Lait (Milk Pillow Cereals) as they reminded me of when I would stay at our friend's french home every summer, although I was a little confused to see a french cereal being sold in a Spanish supermarket. Nonetheless, this cereal was as good as it was all those years ago. You bite into the crunchy exterior to reveal a delicious milky, gooey centre that tastes almost like white chocolate. Granted, these are not the healthiest of all cereals, nor do they look that appetising from the packaging to when they're in you're bowl. But holidays are a time for indulgence and extravagance in my opinion, and I feel that I indulged my inner child as memories of summers spent in France during my childhood came flooding back with every mouthful. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When the possibility of a trip to Tescos becomes the highlight of your day, you know that the monotony of revision has kicked in. I therefore decided, like almost half of St. Andrews, to head home for a little bit of TLC and to fully prepare myself, mentally and emotionally, for the looming exam period. Having foolishly booked the 09:22 train home the Monday morning following Sunday's frivolities at the Kate Kennedy Club Charity May Ball, I was absolutely delighted when upon my arrival home I was greeted by an amply stocked cereal cupboard courtesy of my loving mother. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Indulging my inner child for a few days, I was immediately drawn to the most novel of all the cereals: Coco Pops Croco Copters. Despite the fact that it's clearly advertised and marketed towards children, I fully enjoyed my first taste of this new cereal; it doesn't taste exactly like classic Coco Pops, but nonetheless has its own unique flavour. The cereal takes a long time to go soggy and, as with Coco Pops, you are left with chocolatey milk at the end. What's more is that the plethora of games and activities to be found on the side of the box, including a word search and maze, were a great stimulant each morning, meaning that I was mentally prepared for a day's worth of revision. The only confusing thing about this cereal is the fact that each individual piece is </span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">shaped like a clock cog whereas the packaging would suggest that theme was revolving around helicopters. However, if you can find it within your heart to overlook this minor issue, i'm sure that you too will thoroughly enjoy Coco Pops Croco Copters. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><span style="font-family: 'courier new', courier, monospace;">Easter Sunday marked the end of Lent and instead of celebrating with an easter egg or Lindt Bunny, I couldn't wait to tuck into a huge bowl of cereal. In fact, I was so excited about being able to eat cereal again that I forgot to blog about it last Tuesday and I can only apologise for my own negligence to the cereal cause. But, what did I choose as my first bowl of cereal in 6 weeks, 42 days, 1008 hours, I hear you say. There was no competition, it had to be Kellogg's Corn Flakes.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sometimes overshadowed by more 'exciting' or 'interesting' cereals, Corn Flakes remain a solid classic that give their contenders a run for their money. Yes, they don't have any particular flavour, but sometimes all you need is something simple. This also means that you have a base upon which you can add whatever you wish, be it fruit, honey or sugar. However, I personally always opt for my corn flakes plain, enjoying the simplicity of the cereal per se, for me, Corn Flakes are the equivalent to the detox option of the cereal world. My only qualm with Corn Flakes is the time that they take to go soggy. Within about one minute of pouring the milk on, you are guaranteed to find a soggy bottom to your cereal (something Mary Berry does not approve of). For those of you who are not fans of soggy cereal, this means that you may have to consume your breakfast as fast as possible, potentially setting you up for mid-morning indigestion. However, after a few weeks away, I always seem to forget this fact and come crawling back to Corn Flakes, only to be reminded about the speed this transition takes. Nonetheless, apart from this minor glitch, Corn Flakes do remain, in my opinion, an underrated gem of the cereal world - a bowl full of golden sunshine...</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I always find myself feeling extremely enthused about seasonal foods such as easter eggs, pigs in blankets and Pimm's. I, therefore, could hardly contain my excitement when I realised that Easter is just around the corner by the sheer quantity of hot crossed buns filling the shelves of Tescos. In a way, hot crossed buns hold a very nostalgic and very dear place in my heart. Every sunday morning of lent my brother and I would clamber into my mother and father's bed, teddy in hand, and devour hot crossed bun after hot crossed bun, only after I had insisted that my dear mother remove every single raisin and currant. I have since grown up and learnt to deal with the raisins, but still enjoy eating hot crossed buns in bed with my teddy, which is exactly what I did this very fine morning. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The smell of orange, cinnamon and various spices coupled with slightly singed bread fills your house with the unbeatable feeling that spring has finally arrived. However, how you choose to eat your hot crossed bun is a question that can divide a nation. I would personally always eat my hot crossed buns warm (after all, the word 'hot' is in the title), choosing to toast it, but I could understand some people perhaps choosing to heat them in the oven or under the grill. However, I once heard someone say that they heat them in the microwave, needless to say I ended that friendship quickly... But whether you enjoy your buns hot or cold, the next big question is what condiment, if any, to top with? Taking pleasure from the simple things in life, I tend to stick to butter, but I suppose marmalade or maybe even honey would also make good options. It is this versatility that makes hot crossed buns a perfect treat for anytime of the day, be it breakfast, lunch or dinner. This also means</span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;"> that around this time of year I end up devouring them, packet after packet. Perhaps, in the words of Helen Mirren in Calendar Girls, "we're going to need considerably bigger buns".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Overall I would give hot crossed buns a rating of 4/5</span>The Cereal Bloggerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16362832583591832504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4379493283730132857.post-18497399763149843542014-03-18T12:17:00.003+00:002014-03-18T12:21:51.273+00:00Porridge<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">We are in the midst of lent and cravings for what we have given up are starting to set in. Some dive into the challenge of 6 weeks without chocolate, others perhaps try and better themselves as a person by going gossip free for 40 days. I, however, have decided to undertake a real personal challenge, giving up cereal for the whole duration of lent. Initially I thought I would make a swift transition from cereal to toast for breakfast, but then I remembered that I don't particularly enjoy eating toast every single morning. This has therefore led to the diversification of my breakfast choices, trying many vast and exciting breakfast foods. So, once a week, I intend to blog about a different breakfast option other than cereal for the whole 6 weeks of lent. After all, variety is the spice of life...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">To ease me into this transition I have initially tried and tasted the pseudo-cereal, porridge. This is a hearty breakfast with slow release energy to keep you going until lunch time. It's versatility knows no limits as it can be made exactly to personal preference; it can be made with water, milk, as thick or runny as you like it. And once you have chosen your base you can start on the toppings. Some opt for a classic honey or maple syrup swirl, others like to add fruit and/or jam, and for those of you who believe less is more, porridge can be enjoyed simply as it comes. This morning I chose to have banana and honey upon my porridge and it was delicious. This combination adds a subtle sweetness to the simple base and you feel good because it counts towards one of your five a day. In my opinion, porridge is so great that it can be eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner. No matter how you choose to have your porridge, I can guarantee that you won't be disappointed; how could you when it's texture and flavour depends upon your own personal preference? I will certainly be eating a lot more porridge in the coming weeks... </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I would give porridge an overall rating of 4.5/5</span>The Cereal Bloggerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16362832583591832504noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4379493283730132857.post-86932413536088395302014-03-04T12:36:00.000+00:002014-03-04T13:41:00.853+00:00Pancake Day <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Today is Pancake Day, Shrove Tuesday, Le Mardi Gras. Whatever you like to call it, it's one of the few days that many of us actually decide to eat pancakes for breakfast, lunch and even dinner. However, this one day can divide a nation - what sort of pancake to have, what to top it with, sweet or savoury, American style or French crêpe? Unfortunately this year I am unable to participate in my local Olney Pancake Race that has been running since 1445, however, in celebration of this time old tradition, I have decided to scrap cereal for a week in favour of a traditional French crêpe.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Given that I had my crêpes for breakfast, I opted for the classic lemon and sugar to kick start my day, swiftly moving onto a filling of Nutella topped with the finest Spanish raspberries to be found in Aldi. However, there are many more toppings to be had: maple syrup and bacon, banana and toffee or even ham and cheese, to name just a few, the limit is your imagination... No matter what you choose to top you pancake with, the crucial, age old question still remains: to flip or not to flip? Fortunately for me, my flatmate has many talents in the kitchen, saving me from having to scrape my breakfast from up off the floor. But for those of you whose 'tossing' needs a little more practice, I would suggest heading out to some sort of eating establishment to get your pancake fix for the day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Obviously pancakes are not a cereal, therefore I won't be able to use my standard ratings today. In my opinion, pancakes are a very versatile food that can be changed according to personal preferences, taste and the time of day. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Overall I would give pancakes a 4.4/5 stars. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">These days it seems like all cereal companies are trying to recreate chocolate bars in cereal form. Firstly, Nestle gave us Lion cereal, recently moving onto the transformation of the classic Toffee Crisp Bar into a breakfast cereal. The 'New' banner over the top of the box immediately drew my attention when faced with the daunting prospect of the cereal aisle in Tescos. However, I myself was a little cynical of Nestle's most recent conversion. Yes, it would be like Christmas come early for all Toffee Crisp fans if you could have your favourite chocolate bar in a different form morning, noon and night, but the cynic in me couldn't help but question exactly how does one turn a chocolate bar into a cereal? Therefore, my dear friend Holly took the plunge and bought me a box of Toffee Crisp Cereal on the basis that I would review it. So here it is...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">What I couldn't help but ignore was the healthy stance that Nestle are trying to give this cereal. On the top of the box they claim that Toffee Crisp Cereal is a source of whole grain and provides 8 vitamins and minerals, among which is vitamin D. This may all be true, however, it seems like they have employed this technique to make mums, or dads (this is the 21st century) feel less guilty about giving their children a chocolate bar equivalent for breakfast. Personally I feel that there is nothing wrong with starting the day to a bowl of chocolatey goodness, I've been eating all sorts of cereals for the past 19 years and look at me now! But, if it does make you feel slightly better, then I guess you are having a chocolate cereal that is good for you, in a roundabout way. Nestle have just used their pre-existing Crunch cereal but given it a slightly chocolatey-toffee flavour and added a few extra toffee balls. It was my flatmate who drew my attention to the fact that they bare a slight resemblance to maggots, but don't let that put you off; the flavour is quite subtle so it's not too sickly. It also stays crisp for a good 10 minutes meaning that you can eat at a leisurely pace and could even watch the entire soap feature on ITV's This Morning!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Although I enjoyed my bowl of Toffee Crisp, I wouldn't say that it was the equivalent to the chocolate bar per-se. Maybe Nestle should rebrand this as a new cereal in itself, that way perhaps consumers would feel more inclined to try a cereal that isn't a derivative of a chocolate bar.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here are my ratings for Toffee-Crisp Cereal:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Valentine's day is fast approaching and instead of heading out for a wonderfully romantic meal with my other half, this year I have turned to another love of mine, the love of cereal. It would only be fitting that on the most romantic day of the year, I chose one of my all time favourite cereals, Coco Pops, but this week I have decided to try something new. Yes, I have already tried and reviewed Kellogg's Coco Pops, gaining an overall score of 4/5, but I thought how </span><span style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">would they compare to Morrison's own brand version or the chocolatey cereal, Choco Crackles?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The packaging of both cereals is very similar, each opting for a yellow background with brown writing accompanied by some sort of cereal critter. Kellogg's have stuck with the well known Coco the Monkey, gracing the boxes of Coco Pops since 1963, whereas Morrison's have created a 'Pac-Man-esque' Choco Crackle Monster. Nonetheless, when placed next to one another on the shelf, you could very easily reach for one and not the other by mistake. But how does the actual cereal compare? Choco Crackles are a lot crispier than Coco Pops. This is perhaps not so great initially, but it does mean that the cereal stays crunchier for longer. However, the actual flavour of the cereal contrasts dramatically. Coco Pops have a much more chocolatey and more enjoyable flavour. On a positive note, both cereals leave the milk tasting chocolatey at the end. For just an extra 70p, I, personally would always go for Kellogg's Coco Pops in the morning, however, if towards the end of the semester when my student loan is suffering from numerous tickets bought for fashion shows and balls, I would be perfectly happy eating Morrison's Choco Crackles as a substitute.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here are my ratings for each cereal:</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This is my first post of 2014 and I can only apologise for letting the cereal world down. During my travels through the land of Koalas, Kangaroos and Kiwis I had only good intentions of trying some new and exciting foreign cereals, but unfortunately a lack of access to technologies such as wifi and a computer was sparse, meaning I was unable to share my findings with you. However, from this week onwards I promise I will return to my weekly blog posts, and may even try out some new features to the blog...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This week I decided to ease myself back into the 'real' world by choosing a cereal that is viewed as being relatively healthy. The box informed me that Mini Max is high in fibre, high in vitamins and iron and is a wholegrain, I couldn't think of a better way to start a day full of lectures and work.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Mini Max is basically a glorified version of Mini Shredded Wheats with a frosted coating, meaning you don't have to feel bad about adding copious spoonfuls of sugar. The cereal does go quite soggy, but it's not unbearable. In fact, this is somewhat of a welcome relief as it could be a bit dry without this added milk absorption. And at the end of your breakfast, you are left with a bowl of normal tasting milk, something I know many people prefer as opposed to the sweet tasting milk left behind by some other cereals.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. I however, couldn't sleep with anticipation for trying my newest breakfast cereal: Lucky Charms. Having been very kindly given them by my friend, Natasha, at the end of her sister's 21st birthday party, I thought it was only fit that I reviewed them on this year's Christmas eve.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I must admit that this is not my first taste of Lucky Charms, having previously tried them at a USAo'Phile's house, but that was a rather long time ago, and I had forgotten just how bright and how many E Numbers this cereal contained - a real Christmas treat! The actual cereal component of this is rather plain. An oaty based cereal that takes on the form of a number of different shapes. Although frosted, it is still rather salty. However, the little marshmallow's are the redeeming factor of this cereal. They are an array of colour and shapes from pink love hearts to blue and yellow rainbows. In fact, they are so colourful and sweet that they counterbalance the saltiness and plainness of the cereal, making for a wonderfully harmonious, balanced bowlful of breakfast. Lucky Charms claim to be 'Magically Delicious' and I believe that this unity between salty and sweet creates this magic. As time goes on, the cereal remains fairly crisp and the marshmallows soften somewhat, but this is a welcome factor. Perhaps my only qualm with Lucky Charms is the fact that you are left with an unappetising grey/green milk once you've eaten all the cereal, nonetheless, it still tastes fairly sweet, if that's your kind of thing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I would urge people to put aside their fears of E Numbers and Colourings just for one day and try a bowl of Lucky Charms, treat yourselves, it's Christmas!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Home again. Christmas time once more. Having finished exams I am finally feeling festive and therefore have decided to try All-Bran Red Berry Crunch. I have been searching for a specifically christmas themed cereal but to no avail, so thought the red berries muddled amongst the All-Bran clusters would suffice for now. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">When I saw the cereal in my bowl, my initial response was that it looked like a hybrid between bird food and rabbit droppings. Thankfully it tastes like neither. The flavour of the cereal is not too sweet or powerful so the berries are a welcome addition, and they leave you with pink milk at the end, even better! The cereal also stays crunchy for the time it takes to eat a bowl full so that's an added bonus. However, those with a more delicate mouth may want to give this cereal a miss as they certainly do live up to the 'Crunch' part of their name. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">All-Bran is perhaps not the most exciting cereal out there but it is not the worst i've ever had. It could probably do with a bit of work on the aesthetics, but i'm glad that it's not overtly sweet, as this is clearly not a cereal specifically for children; it has to appeal to adult tastes too. Although not my favourite cereal in the world, I would not be completely against eating more bowls of All-Bran Red Berry Crunch, however, will probably not be in any hurry to have my next bowl. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In the midst of exams and revision all the days seem to merge into one. The same old routine, day in, day out. Christmas seems like a century away, and, despite the plethora of paper chains, snowmen and even singing Santas surrounding me, regardless of how many mince pies or selection boxes I eat, I just can't seem to get into the festive frame of mind. It is therefore in this rather 'bah humbug' mindset that I have decided to try and cheer myself up with a box of the very novelty Cookie Crisp.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This cereal is supposed to look like cookies and taste like them too, but I can say that it only half fulfils one of these brash claims. The cereal vaguely resembles a cookie shape and colour, but the chocolate chips could do with a little work; in my opinion they look more like dog biscuits than cookies. As for the flavour, they taste like generic cereal, not cookies as promised by the name on the box. I personally think that they are a little too salty and the texture needs more density. Thankfully Cookie Crisp's one redeeming factor is that they don't loose much of their initial crunch, living up to the 'Crisp' element of the name.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Some may say that I have been a little harsh on Cookie Crisp, but they really are nothing special. Once the novelty of your mum letting you eat 'Cookies' in the morning wears off, you are left with an uninspiring bowl of something vaguely resembling a cookie. Some would blame this harsh review on the lack of Christmas cheer in my life, and maybe this is true, but Nestle really should look at improving this cereal in the meantime.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here are my reviews for Cookie Crisp:</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">With the onset of revision week and christmas just around the corner, it seems that the days have lost all sense of structure and purpose. Thankfully with the start of advent, and a new box of cereal, there is still some sort of incentive to wake up before midday. Therefore, this week I have turned to a childhood favourite of not just myself, but also many others and have chosen to review Kellogg's Frosties.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">With every bowl of Frosties you can see the sugar coating glistening and glittering in the sun pouring in through the window. Unfortunately as soon as the milk touches the cereal this shimmer fades instantly, nonetheless, Frosties still maintain their initial sweetness. Yes, the flavour may be slightly less intense than at the start but I feel like this is somewhat inevitable. The only issue is that Frosties do go a little soggy towards the end, however, not as much as other cereals such as Corn Flakes or Crunchy Nuts. This is feel is thanks to the sugar coating. In my opinion it acts as a sort of shield against the milk. For me, Frosties are like a tarted up version of Corn Flakes. What's great about them is the fact that you don't need to add anything else to them as they are sweet enough to begin with. Even at the end you are left with a bowl of sweet milk; Frosties truly is the cereal that keeps on giving...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This weekend I finally broke out of the bubble and headed home for my mum's big five zero. It was a gastronomical few days, moving from one eatery to another with only a few hours rest in between each. Nonetheless, I did my best to pull through and avoid the dreaded food coma. Thankfully, cereal is always a simple, reliable choice for any time of the day and I have now fully recovered in time for this week's review. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I have previously reviewed Crunchy Nut Cornflakes, the original, which fared well in the ratings so I thought it was about time I diversified and have moved on to Crunchy Nut Clusters. These are completely different to the original Crunchy Nuts. They have added chocolate curls and are also in cluster form. This makes them extremely crunchy, as their title would suggest, which can be a good thing, but some of these clusters are very large, a bit of a challenge in the morning when you have not yet fully woken up. They are also a tad salty, which I guess is counter-balanced by the chocolate curls, but it does feel a little odd eating actual chocolate in the morning. Their one redeeming factor is that they don't go too soggy having been sat in a bowl of milk over a prolonged period of time. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So what do I prefer Crunchy Nut Clusters or the original cornflakes? Both have their positives and negatives, one goes soggy quickly, the other is perhaps too crunchy. I personally feel that the clusters are better eaten for dinner, lunch or a snack due to the difficulty of getting you mouth round them in the morning. Will I be having more bowls of Crunchy Nut Clusters? Perhaps when I'm feeling a little peckish during the day or can't be bothered to cook dinner, but I will reach for something else in the morning.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This is the week from hell with three essay deadlines piling up and my dear mother's birthday on Thursday, for which I haven't even bought a present yet (sorry mum). Therefore I decided to reach for "fuel to start my day in a tasty way" and have chosen Weetabix Chocolate Minis to add some form of excitement to my life.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This is a very versatile cereal that, just like standard Weetabix, can be eaten in all sorts of ways: hot, cold, with sugar, syrup, yoghurt or even dry. However with the bitter east Fife weather taking a nose dive, this morning I decided to have them with hot milk for, in the words of George Hailstone "a bowl of warm wheaty goodness". This makes the chocolate chips melt and leaves the cereal crispy on top but soggy on the bottom. But I feel that Weetabix is one of the only cereals that is bearable when soggy, as my granddad would say, you could suck it through your teeth. Yet, if you have Weetabix Minis with cold milk it's a completely different story; they stay crispy for a good 5 minutes, perhaps even more. The only down side is that the chocolate doesn't melt. I think that Weetabix Minis are great due to their versatility and are a great start to the day, especially on cold winter mornings.</span><br />
