About Me

This blog is a way for me to keep track of my New Year's Resolutions to buy one new food (and eat it eventually) every time I go to the grocery store! I hope to keep it interesting by researching facts about the foods that I buy and eat!I will also give reviews about the each food... I know this is ridiculous, but I think it might be fun :-)

Kelloggs Crunchy Nut

 "So delicious you won't want to wait until morning "

This is the slogan for kelloggs new "Crunchy Nut" cereal. There are actually two types of Crunchy Nut... Golden Honey Nut and Roasted Nut and Honey. Crunchy Nut was introduced in the UK and Ireland in the 1980s but it just recently reached the US in 2011!

I opted to try the Golden Honey Nut!  It is a corn flake cereal .. the flakes are coated with honey and real small pieces of peanuts.

I usually have oatmeal for breakfast and like to snack on cereal so... yesterday afternoon I opened the box and poured myself a bowl of Crunchy Nut. I just ate the cereal dry.. and frankly I could have eaten the whole box! It is soo good. It is not overwhelmingly sweet and the pieces of peanut are just the right size.. not to big to be annoying and not so small that you don't taste them. Not surprisingly the cereal is also very crunchy/crispy and I can imagine that in milk it would stay crunchy because of  the honey glaze!

Nutrition: 3/4 cup is 120 calories, 1 gram fat,  130mg sodium, 45mg potassium, 27g carbs, 10g sugar, 2 g protein,  and a variety of vitamins/minerals

Overall a big success- way to go Kelloggs!! Buying this again..!
