Review: Honey-Comb was chosen for two reasons.
1) It was on sale.
2) I had not eaten it for a really really long time. I think the last time I had Honey-Comb was at my babysitter's house like twenty years ago. I had fond memories of this very special treat (as the only cereals in my home growing up were along the lines of Cheerios, Rice Krispies, and Grape Nuts)
This puffed, gently crunchy cereal is a bit reminiscent of Kix, but in disc-form, with perforations. Despite its questionable tagline ("me want honey-comb") it is quite delicious both with milk and without.
Though it is very white and contains virtually no nutritional value, it is light and delicately satisfying. The perfect cereal to eat outside on a weekend evening, seated on the sun-warmed steps in front of one's home.
