Spooned & Spotted: Nature Valley Raisin Oat Clusters and Chocolate Oat Bites

Nature Valley Raisin Oat Clusters and Nature Valley Chocolate Oat Bites

Nature Valley’s first three cereals were all delicious. They must have been successful, too, because now we’re getting two more!

Raisin Oat Clusters and Chocolate Oat Bites are joining Chocolate Oat Clusters, Baked Oat Bites, and Honey Oat Clusters, all debuted earlier this year from General Mills’ resident granola-smiths at Nature Valley.

If my experiences with Nature Valley’s first three offerings—which all tasted like baked goods for some reason—are to be believed, Raisin Oat Clusters will taste like a cinnamon raisin bagel, while Chocolate Oat Bites will be like miniature chocolate doughnut flavored Cracklin’ Oat Bran.

Yep, I’m gonna start surfing Craigslist now for bulk deals on larger sized pants. Maybe I’ll pick up a sketchy old mattress and a bag of soggy fireworks while I’m there, too.

  1. I bought the Chocolate Oat bites today and it took me a little bit to start to like them, but they’re pretty good. The chocolate glaze is very thin, though, and the chocolate flavor is not as strong as I was hoping for (snacking wise). I’ve yet to hate them in milk, but right now, I’d rank them behind Chocolate HBO, Chocolate Mini Wheats, Chocolate Chex, Cocoa Puffs, and Chocolate Toast Crunch.

    Oh yeah, I sort of like chocolate cereals 🙂
