Review: Well, I ate this cereal last week as well, but I neglected to take a picture of it because I eat it for breakfast, and at 5:50am I am not very enthusiastic about digging around for my phone and photographing my food. I enjoy the gentle crunch of the Cinnamon Crumble, but it lacks the additional chewy texture of the Toasted Berry Crumble. Also, I don't really notice a difference between the two cereals (other than the aforementioned lack in the former). My conclusion is that I would prefer adding a sprinkle of cinnamon to the top of my Toasted Berry Crumble to finding a mix of dried berries and adding it to my Cinnamon Crumble. The one very positive thing I will say about the Cinnamon Crumble is that one of my roommates (who has expressed disdain toward Kashi cereals in the past) stated that IF she were to eat a Kashi cereal, it would be this one. So there you go.
