Review: Oh, Chocolate Chex. The esteemed cereal has the privilege of the first review on my blog because it is my current favorite cereal, and has been for approximately 12 months.

I chose to eat my Chocolate Chex with Light Vanilla Silk Soy Milk. I love the gentle sweetness and delicate crunch of Chocolate Chex. The chocolate  tastes like real cocoa powder, not overly sweet like many so-called "sugar" cereals.

Contents of the box include Rice Chex (top) and Chocolatey Rice Chex (bottom)

It appears that sugar does not, in fact, have any nutritional value. Bummer.

I shared with my roommates who responded with the following. . .

"It's kind of like Cocoa Krispies but a lot more mild. Not as sweet. Like Cocoa Krispies for adults"

"Better than Cocoa Krispies, but not as good as Reeses Puffs"

"I think this is more of a snack cereal. Not a dessert, but not a meal."

"I want more"

"That sweet cereal turned me off my wine. My wine door is now closed. I need more sweet things now"

And with that, I must say that the overwhelming response to this cereal was positive. And I highly recommend trying it if it is available in your local grocery.
