Great Value Toasted Rice Crisps Breakfast Cereal, 12 oz

I finally found a cereal that doesn't turn into a sponge after 30 seconds. I usually stick to the same few brands for cereal, but I decided to grab a box of these Great Value Toasted Rice Crisps on my last grocery run to mix things up a bit. I needed something quick in the mornings that doesn't require any actual cooking, and this definitely fits the bill. The box is the standard 12 oz size, so it's lasted me about a week and a half of breakfasts. The crisps themselves have a good, light crunch that doesn't get soggy the second you pour the milk on them, which is my number one pet peeve with cereal. You can actually eat it at a normal pace and still have some texture left in the bowl. The flavor is exactly what you'd expect—a straightforward, lightly toasted rice taste. It's not overly sweet, which I actually prefer because I can add a little fruit to it without it becoming a sugar bomb. My only small complaint is that there can be a fair amount of "fines" (the tiny broken bits) at the bottom of the bag by the time you get to the end. It's not a dealbreaker, but you end up with a dusty last bowl if you're not careful when you pour. I'm hoping the bag stays fresh enough to keep that crunch for a while, since I don't eat cereal every single day. Overall, it's a solid, no-frills option that gets the job done.
