Honey Smack's, What Happened? Why so stale?

6 months ago
I used to love Kellogg's Honey Smack's, but now I refuse to buy this brand because they are stale and hard. Every box that I have purchased in the last 12 months have been horribly stale, so now I only purchase Golden Crisps. Whatever is happening at your company with the quality of your product needs to be fixed. Its not okay for any consumer to spend money on your cereal and receive stale cereal. We work too hard to waste money on something I wouldn't feed to my dogs. Stop selling old product. Its not cool!

No, I do not recommend this product.

Stale...pale...what gives

a year ago
I bought 2 boxes of these today and both boxes are stale and really pale compared to what it's actually supposed to look like. Expiration isn't until November. Taking back to the store tomorrow, for almost $5 per box, it's absurd to have this quality issue.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Sweet & Toasty

5 months ago
I am not a huge breakfast fan, but I love cereal. I really like to snack on cereal randomly. Honey Smacks is a great snack for me. I love the little puffed whole grain sweetened with honey. Those little puffed whole grain pieces are the perfect size, crispy, and perfect with your favorite milk. The cereal keeps most of its crispy texture in the milk, which really makes me happy. The cereal does have a sweet and toasty flavor. As soon as I open the bag, I can smell the honey & the nostalgia. Also, I appreciate that they still put fun activities on the back of the box. Although Kelloggs Honey Smacks isn't super healthy, it doesn't have artificial flavors, artificial colors, or high frutose syrup. I would recommend eating the recommended serving size, with a balanced diet.

Stale

7 months ago
This was my favorite cereal when I was a child. I purchased a box today and the whole box is stale. They are not as I remember. The texture is chewy, not crunchy. No flavor, the color use to be darker and cereal was much large. Today, I got small stale bits.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Bought yesterday, returning today

a year ago
I just bought this yesterday and I’m returning it today. I usually buy the off brand but thought I’d be treating myself by buying the brand name. Nope! These are beyond stale. How can pieces be hard and chewy at the same time? Even letting the milk soak in it did nothing. I can’t believe how downhill this cereal has gone, I’ll never purchase it again but other Kellogg’s products are pretty good I’m just really disappointed that Honey Smacks is much worse than the generic brand.

No, I do not recommend this product.
