A Cereal That Tastes Similar To Strawberry Licorice?

For months, I've been wanting to try the new strawberry-flavored Rice Krispies that Kellogg's introduced in December 2018. It's been fairly difficult finding a box of this cereal; even the Shop-Rite store that I do business with does not stock it.

Fortunately, I obtained a box of Strawberry Krispies from Target last week, but I'm not sure what to think of the product. The pastel-pink box looks great, and Snap, Crackle and Pop are jumping around on the front.
                                              
                                                  


Appearance / Texture
Kellogg's Strawberry Krispies breakfast cereal is a pleasant shade of pink, and it would probably work well as an edible garnish. As a breakfast cereal, it's always fun to eat Rice Krispies, but their ultra-light texture means they should be eaten quickly one they've been moistened.

Nutritional Facts
Kellogg's Strawberry Krispies contain 150 calories, with 0 grams total fat per 1.25-cup serving. This tasty cereal also contains 0 mg of cholesterol, 11 grams of sugars and 2 grams of protein per serving. When they're eaten with milk in a bowl, you end up with some strawberry milk at the bottom, but it's not as tasty as Strawberry Quik.

                                                                          Price
The average price charged for one 16.5 ounce box of Kellogg's Strawberry Krispies at Hartford, Connecticut-area supermarkets is approximately $5.99

                                                                           Flavor
 As for flavor, it took me a few minutes to figure it out, but this cereal tastes an awful lot like strawberry-flavored licorice. The flavor isn't bad at all, especially with sliced bananas added. As with all other Rice Krispies varieties, this cereal tastes better if it's eaten as soon as you add milk to it.




On an overall scale of one to ten, I would assign Strawberry Krispies a rating of 7.5. They're actually pretty good, but I'm not sure if I would purchase them again. What I'd really like to see are banana-flavored Rice Krispies. You never know, Kellogg's may decide to introduce such a product.
