Strawberry Vanilla Chex

Some of my best friends are naturally flavored with other natural flavors! (That is to say, they're not actually friends, but some other human-type thing that passes for friendish. Ew.) This strawberry flavor is exactly the same as every other strawberry flavored cereal I've had lately (cinnamon toast crunch? special k? frosted flake?) and it tastes artificial even if it's not. Luckily you can still taste the rice chex through it, especially after milk saturation, and sweetened rice chex cereal is one of the greats. Perhaps I'd be better off with regular rice chex and a little sugar, but at least this saves me the sugar packet and gains me a new food review. Now, where was I. The vanilla is so subtle as to be nonexistent, and once the strawberry washes off, this is pretty good. 

Overall
Cost: 5/10
Taste: 7/10

Chex - Maple Brown Sugar

Hey, this was surprisingly solid. It tastes more like Chex than maple, and I forgot that I like chex! Even corn chex, apparently. It's not too sweet, but it's a little sweet (in the Kix zone!) and the milk remnants are very sweet. They do say that the PB chex are made in a separate facility, which I appreciate. Still a little scary, haha. But they are good, and the aftertaste is like maple brown sugar oatmeal, which I don't love (but it's growing on me), but the taste taste is pleasant and fun.
