Chocolate Cheerios Review & Giveaway

Posted on February 2, 2010 by JMarsden| 55 Comments

I have loved eating Cheerios for quite some time.  (Actually it has been since I was a child.)  Recently I was lucky enough to be chosen to try out the new Chocolate Cheerios.  I had my wife, and daughter try them, and they loved them.  We loved eating the Honey Nut Cheerios originally, and now they have something else that we will eat because they have added Real Cocoa, and we love chocolate.

These Cheerios are so good that I will definitelly recommend them to anyone that eats cereal, and is willing to try out something new.

I was sent a package with the same things that are in the giveaway so as to review the product, and another package for a contest to run by Cheerios through MyBlogSpark. I was not paid any monetary compensation for this review. This post is my opinion and should be taken as just that. Having received samples has no impact on our personal use, experience, or like for any product.
