Cheaper, Tastier, HFCS free Cereal

I have been a fan of Mom's Best cereal for a while now. They have a wide variety of tasty, High Fructose Corn Syrup free cereals that are very inexpensive. However, at the grocery store I was interested in a more fruity variety of cereal than those currently in the Mom's Best line up. I very much enjoyed the Annie's Fruity Bunnies that I recently bought, but was looking for something more in my preferred price range with a similar level of fruitiness.

I stumbled on Hospitality Fruit Whirls.* They were only $2 per pound, or $1 for the 8 oz box I purchased. I had very little to lose, and with a lack of HFCS and a claim of being somewhat "natural" I was sold. As to the taste, delicious. Better than Froot Loops from what I remember. The only downside, more sugars than Froot Loops or Froot Loops Reduced Sugar (and added salt). Similarly, it has more sugar than Fruity Bunnies. However, being half the price of Annie's and often less than half the price of the Kellogg's products, Fruity Whirls remain an excellent bargain and delicious.

I plan on checking out their other varieties of "Hospitality" cereal the next time I visit the store. For only a buck, I feel like I have little to lose.



*Really, this is the best I could do for a website.
