Special K Strawberries & Crème Cereal

Not to k-hole on main, but it always weirded me out as a kid that there's a drug-named cereal marketed as a health cereal. Of course, I later found out the the cereal came first and the drug name was a play off of it. Kellogg's won the long game by keeping the name, since I don't think anyone really even calls ketamine Special K anymore. Anyway, I wish this were drugs and not cereal. But I'm on that full cereal, no drugs life (for all the good it does me!!). 

Much like frozen brocco, there's way too many similar varieties of Special K on offer. This particular one is not even on Kellogg's's website, or any website, but I have it in my hands so I know that it's real. It's actually much tastier than the 'Strawberry Cheesecake' flavor, since it's less artificial. Here we have flakes (classic), weird yogurt clumps (made me nervous and look kinda gross, but taste like a trail mix yogurt clump), and little bits of oat cluster (good). There is also an essence of dried strawberry, but no real strawberry pieces, and that's quite alright since I'd prefer no essence of dried strawberry at all. Pretty sweet and fatty for a health cereal -- in fact, maybe this isn't even intended to be health cereal and I just assumed it was because it sounded gross to me as a kid. The milk becomes very pink and I like that. It's also pretty filling. Special (bric)K.

Kellogg's Special K - Strawberry Cheesecake

There's so many cereals that are all basically the same concept. I can't keep up! These have shellac in the ingredients, which I was nervous about, but apparently it's the same as "confectioner's glaze", which I've definitely had before, so woohoo! Anyway, this smells good, just like cheesecake, but the taste doesn't live up to the smell. It's pretty tasteness, and also very mushy. Vague strawberry, vague milky-coated flakes, and the milk is vaguely pink. It's fine, but not quite as good as the strawberry milkshake frosted flakes AND I think this has more calories. Hmph.

Special K Oat Crunch Honey

This is a confusing name for a cereal. But other than the name, this isn't very exciting -- it's just your basic corn flakes, with some sweet oat clusters. I guess it's an accurate name after all. Solid, just not exciting.

Special K Flatbread Breakfast Sandwich - Sausage, Egg & Cheese

On road trips, I've always liked McDo's Sausage McMuffins, so I thought this might be a nice healthy at-home version of that treat. But alas. The bread is bad, the sausage is fine, the cheese is fine although it seems to be a small circle, and the egg is horrible!! horrible!! not that i've ever had a good frozen egg patty, but this is just a bad time. I put a lot of mustard on it and managed to eat all 4 after a few month's time, but I don't think I'll revisit this line of frozen delicacies :(
