Prefer Old Formula- But Still Decent
This is one of my favourite cereals and has been for a long time. I usually buy them from Costco where you can find a box with two large bags inside for almost the price of a regular box at most grocery stores. I recently noticed that Honeycomb cereal has been reformulated to include a "bigger honey taste", but with this also came a change in texture and colour. The new Honeycombs are a deep yellow and less dense in texture. You can also see the honey glaze on them. This new formula tastes more artificial and sweet. It reminds me of many other sugary cereals on the market, whereas the old formula was more wholesome in taste. Personally, I notice a sweeter taste but not a stronger honey taste-- as I found the old formula had a more natural honey sweetness in every bite. This cereal is not that bad but I'm thrown off in comparison to the old formula. If you're looking for a sweet corn cereal that isn't overly "dessert", I'd give this a try.
I used to love honeycombs and so did my daughter! Until we opened a box today and and when biting into some there was pieces of plastic!! Will update when company responds to my email has I have complained about this safety concern!
Meh. When I used to eat cereal, I would occasionally get Honeycomb cereal - it wasn't overly sweet, but would a bit bland. I found it also went stale really quickly, hence why I didn't purchase it often.
It's not very nutritious, and with the sugar contents within, I can't see how one can sustain any energy for a long period of time afterwards.
Honey Comb cereal is ok, it's not a cereal I'd go crazy for. I used to eat it as a kid but I've never said oh I have to buy Honey Comb cereal.
