The new Apple Jacks advertising campaign bring in to question whether Apples, or Cinnamon is the commanding flavor of this cereal. In the commercial, they the proclaim that "CinnaMon(the rasta cinnamon stick character) knows that kids love the sweet cinnamon taste of Apple Jacks". It's not called cinnamon jacks. WTF. So I look on the side of the box, both Apple Juice concentrate and Cinnamon are key ingredients. So who do i choose? I just really don't know. So i eat a few bowls. I am still torn. Then I take another look at the box and realize:
A) This cereal is really bad for me
B) The main ingredient, in front of any grain(and FAR above apples or cinnamon) is SUGAR.
After having a few more bowls i realize this cereal just tastes like sugar. At this point I am instantly bummed. Apple and CinnaMon have no chance here. they are back 10-15 ingredients on this box. The Sugar in Apple Jacks overpowers the taste of anything else, and after a few more bowls, i realized that this cereal isn't nearly as good as i thought it was when i was a kid. I am actually a bit let down. If you like to eat crunchy sugar O's then disregard this and eat up. If you want a cereal that truly mixes the Delicious flavors of Apples and Cinnamon....then PLEASE buy some Apple Cinnamon Cheerios. They are so much better tasting. SIGH. Lied to again.
PS-My box didn't have a cool Xbox toy either.
