Hard teeth breakers!

a year ago
This product can barely be eaten. It has very very hard bits that can break your teeth. Truly awful. The little bits are almost clear and I don't console this cereal even edible.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Where is Special K original ?

4 years ago
Finding a box of f special K is becoming almost impossible. The numerous “choices” you offer seem to be designed by your marketing department who is taking the lazy approach to product development: throw a bunch of different stuff out there and see what sells. If you want to go that route then be honest and stop trading on the name of one of your best products as you do it. Any resemblance between the special k I have enjoyed for over 50 years and your marketing experiments is little more than deceptive switch and bait. Why do you think that many bad choices are better for your brand anyway? Dance with the gal you brought to the party guys.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Original

a year ago
I’m not usually a cereal person — most of the time, they’re either too sweet, too plain, or leave me hungry an hour later. But this one really changed my mind. The flavor is surprisingly good — not overly sugary, but still satisfying. What really stood out to me was the texture. It has a nice crunch that holds up well in milk without getting soggy too fast, which I really appreciate. The packaging is also a plus — it’s clean, resealable, and keeps the cereal fresh, which is something I’ve had issues with in other brands. All in all, this cereal won me over. Even if you’re not typically into cereal, I’d say give this one a try — it might surprise you.

Hard bits in every box

3 months ago
I've been eating Special K for years and some boxes are worse than others but I think I just need to finally stop eating this. I'm shocked I haven't broken a tooth yet, the hard bits actually hurt if you accidentally bite one and I keep a napkin next to me when eating so I can spit them out. How in the world can everyone have the same complaint and you just...don't do anything about it except "call us" - I don't want a replacement box, just fix the clear manufacturing issue. It's legit out of control now, every bite.

No, I do not recommend this product.
