In recent years, I’ve come to appreciate Frosted Mini-Wheats more so than when I was a child, which was not at all. That whole grain stuff’s not so bad. The Strawberry flavored edition is especially good in my opinion. I’ve always kinda wondered why they’re called “mini” wheats, though, cause they’re kinda big. So I was pondering that thought whilst looking at Frosted Mini-Wheats in the grocery store last night, when I came upon a confusingly fantastic sight: mini Frosted Mini-Wheats. That’s right: mini Mini-Wheats; twice tiny’d; small to a 2. Then came the best part: CHOCOLATE? Surely this must be the cereal God eats (when he watches cartoons), I thought.
Got a bowl, poured ‘em in. Even though I knew they were gonna be smaller than normal, it caught me by surprise. They’re so damn bite-size! The first thing I noticed about these Chocolate “Little Bites” Mini-Wheats was that the chocolate flavor and Mini-Wheat texture created a pretty confusing disparity. The taste is just so different from what I’m used to when it comes to Mini-Wheats. The chocolate flavor itself reminds me of Oreo O’s and Chocolatey Delight Special K, but weaker. No, not weaker; more subtle. Even when it gets soggy, the flavor is mostly there.
This is, I think, the first chocolate cereal I’ve ever eaten that actually doesn’t turn your milk chocolatey. Which probably says something about the quality of the “chocolate” used, though I’m not sure what. It is a great source of fiber, being whole wheat and all. Unfortunately, it has the drawbacks of normal Frosted Mini-Wheats: soggyness, frosting melts off, and there’ll be a bunch of shredded wheat floating around your mouth for the next 4 or so hours. But I can dig it. It’s not incredible like I was hoping, but hey, variety is the spice of life.

>These Chocolate mini wheats little bites are about the best choc cereal i have ever had. The chocolate is in every piece and they are as good or better dry than in milk. Get out the milk and have a great bowl of cereal. One of the great parts is that it isn’t a great many more calories per serving.

I have loved frosted mini wheats pretty much forever, and these are terrific. I sure hope this is a permanent flavor.I think the honey nut ones are terrible, by the way.
