FAIL.


There are some good ideas that just don't ever come together the way we would like. It happens. Just Bunches is one of those ideas. I saw a coupon for this in the paper over the summer, and decided since i love Honey Bunches of Oats, this would rule too. Boy was I wrong. I can see these guys sitting around trying to think of a new cereal(which i wish was my job) being stumped..and as a cop out make this. The box was $2.50, and really really small. 4 bowls(average amount) and it was gone. That sucked really bad. Overall taste was fair, but i bit bland, so i tried putting frozen raspberries on it, which made it a lot better. For the price, and the amount given, you would be better off buying a good granola that has raisins or almonds in it or something that would spice it up. Just bunches is the result of a bunch of cereal makers with no good ideas.

Raisin Bran Crunch


AKA RB Crunch AKA RBC.

Over the summer I have become extremely fond of this cereal. Many of you may be thinking "Raisin Bran EWW"..hold your tongues. This is not your typical Bran cereal with dried fruit. While the traditional Raisin Bran is a bit geriatric..RB Crunch is the new, hip, cool version. I would liken it to Obama vs. McCain. Although they are not too different, McCain is the soggy old douche guy, Obama is the hip fresh delicious one. But back to the cereal. No more do you have to worry about soggy flakes..somehow they have the technology to NOT ONLY keep the flakes crisp after the milk is added, but they made the flakes taste 1000000 times better, and like the name states "Crunch(ier)". They also added Oat Clusters. Holy Shit, Right? Crunchy, sweet, honey oat clusters. Hot damn. A 25.5 oz box(family sized) only cost like 3.25. And it fills you up, keeps you regular(the bran d00dz), and it tastes awesome.
