"Kind of weird -- the combination of ingredients yields an unusual taste that's difficult to pinpoint. More of a kid's snack than a "grown-up" hors d'oeuvres...." See more"

"I'll delete this one from my recipe list. I tried. Didn't like. No offense to anyone else, but my taste buds weren't diggin' it. Gave it one star for texture. I liked the combination of the cream..." See moreiness and crunchiness before the cereal got soggy tasting. This is one of those things that must be eaten right away as it is best cold."
