What’s it?
Kellogg’s Krave Double Chocolate Brownie Batter Cereal (KKDCBBC) is a brand new model of the crunchy pillow-shaped cereal that’s just like the common Krave cereal, solely far more chocolatey. One would possibly even say double chocolatey. Oh, and brownie-battered. Or brownie-batter flavored. Double chocolate brownie batter, I suppose.
How is it?
Krave has been in “The States” now for a decade, and I’ve by no means had it. A Krave virgin! A Kragin? Anyway, I believe I assumed, simply by taking a look at them, they had been within the Shredded Mini Wheat household, and due to this fact, I refused to eat them on precept. I imply, who desires to screw up breakfast with one thing wholesome like shredded wheat? No thanks! Think about my shock after I purchased these and realized that they’re nothing like Shredded Wheat.
The surface shell is crispy and rather more Corn Pop-py. The within is difficult to explain. It’s not fairly frosting, however it’s not comfortable and syrupy, both. I couldn’t distinguish which half gave off the brownie taste, however it was there, a nuanced style just a little deeper than common chocolate. Dry from the field, I loved these. In milk, nonetheless, they obtained mushy quick, and the chocolate taste was shortly muted.
The rest it’s essential to know?
A yr earlier than their US launch, Krave was launched within the UK the place, in response to Wikipedia, they had been marketed underneath the slogans “Right here Choccy Choccy” and “It’s Time To Soften.” It appears like I’m making this up, however I swear I’m not.
Conclusion:
KKDCBBC was tremendous, however with so many alternative methods to devour globs of sugar for breakfast, I wish to make it rely, you realize? And I don’t know that KKDCBBC hooked me sufficient to strive it — or another Krave cereal — once more. At the least not on the common worth. Give me an honest sale and we’ll discuss.
