(Update: We reviewed Banana Bread Shreddies!)
Smell that?
It’s the smell of jealousy—jealousy over Canada getting a cool exclusive cereal that America isn’t. It might also be the smell of warm, oven-baked banana bread wafting over the U.S.’s northern border, but you know, that’s kind of a “chicken and the egg” type thing.
See, I’m jealous because Post’s Banana Bread Shreddies are coming soon to Canadian grocery shelves in January 2017, and we here in the states have never been blessed by a doughy, ripe banana cereal. Sure, we’ve had strawberry banana Urkel Os and the surprisingly delicious Banana Berry Minions Cereal—which had notes of browned banana—but neither of those come close to the “Grandma’s kitchen goodness” promised by Banana Bread Shreddies. I’m still waiting for General Mills to realize Tiny Toast‘s potential for amazing bread-based flavor varieties.
This news comes courtesy of Jeff S., renowned Junk Food Dog and one-time Cerealously guest reviewer. I both thank Jeff for this tip and curse him for getting to bury his face in a banana bread-flavored breakfast when I can’t.
I’ll just have to use a real slice of banana bread to mop up my morning tears. After all, isn’t that the secret ingredient for keeping it dense and moist?
My sister got it at giant tiger
What stores are carrying this cereal? Wanna buy some!
I don’t know, as I’m not Canadian. Sorry!
Yeah, but you Americans still have Waffle Crisp which we can’t get up here. Love that stuff.
Guess what showed up …Post Shreddies Banana Bread Flavour….it actually tastes like good ol Mom’s Banana Bread…well almost 😉
This cereal has yet to show on CANADIAN shelves !???bummer man
Did you not know that there is a banana cereal here made by Post called Banana Nut Crunch?
Good catch! I’m aware of the Great Grains line, but it often slips my mind: both because it seems sparsely available in my area and because I’m not personally a fan of the line. The Banana Nut Crunch, along with the other Great Grains flavors, seem very blandly flavored to me.
Wow. This sounds amazing.
Come on banana life, grow a set!
