Kellogg’s new Frosted Bran is made up of crunchy bran flakes with an ideal quantity of sweetness. Part of me needs it was known as Frosted Flakes Bran with Tony the Tiger and the Solar giving one another a excessive 5 on the entrance of the field, with the tagline, “They’re gr-r-reat…in your digestive system.” What may’ve been!
Don’t let the solar smiling on the field idiot you into considering these are the very same bran flakes present in Kellogg’s Raisin Bran as a result of they aren’t. Whereas they don’t seem to be as frosted as these present in Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes, there’s sufficient of a coating to make them sweeter and crunchier than what’s in a bowl of plain ol’ Raisin Bran.
However right here’s the factor, it tastes like Kellogg’s took the sugary coating from the raisins after which put them on the bran flakes as a result of the cereal is just not sweeter than common Raisin Bran and has the identical fibrous flavors because the traditional cereal minus the raisins. That candy coating additionally prevents the flakes from getting soggy the moment they’re launched to take advantage of, which occurs with common bran flakes.
To be sincere, there must be a Frosted Bran with Raisins as a result of it might make consuming Raisin Bran much less annoying and extra tasty. I’ve let loose so many sighs once I find yourself with raisin-less spoonfuls of bran mush that I in all probability let loose sufficient air to explode balloons for a kid’s celebration.
As for dietary variations between this and Kellogg’s Raisin Bran, a one-cup serving of this new cereal has 150 energy, 5 grams of fiber, and 10 grams of sugar. Whereas a serving of the unique has 190 energy, 7 grams of fiber, and 17 grams of sugar.
I’m shocked by how a lot I like Kellogg’s Frosted Bran, however I don’t know if I must be shocked. In any case, I like Raisin Bran once I can safe at the very least one raisin on my spoon. It has the correct amount of sweetness, and its sugary coating helps preserve an honest crunch. I want it got here in a much bigger field, however general, I believe this cereal is gr-r-rand…in your digestive system.
