My thoughts on Hershey's Cookies N' Creme Cereal

One thing I have been missing since giving up high fructose corn syrup, is chocolate sandwich cookies and cookies and cream flavored treats.  They are one of my favorites, but most of them are made with high fructose corn syrup and therefore when they are used as an ingredient, that "flavor" of other foods is often out as well.  I was very happy to see that this cereal does not contain high fructose corn syrup and appeased my craving for cookies and cream.  I am one of those moms that rarely buys kid-friendly cereals and when I do, we usually eat them as a dessert, rather than a breakfast, and that is how we ate this cereal as well.  We all enjoyed it.  It is sweet, but not cloying and when eaten without milk, still has a slight milk flavor. The discs also stay fairly crisp when in milk, or at least did not get gross and soggy within a short period of time.  

The Giveaway

I have a set just like the one pictured below to give away to one of my readers.  It contains a box of Hershey's Cookies N' Creme cereal, 2 Cereal-To-Go containers (bowl, ice pack/lid which keeps milk separate from cereal/foldable spoon) and a cereal dispenser.  Enter on the rafflecopter form below the picture.
