What appeals, I'm told, is that you can have 18 of them on Weight Watchers for 2 Points. They can't be bad, can they?
The ingredients consist or Whole grain corn, whole grain brown rice, whole grain oat flour, and more. They're gluten free and wheat free, which is important to many.
I quite liked them, but you try them for yourself! They were bought at Costco on a closeout for $1.99 for a 16 oz package.

Kellogg's Cereal Straws are the most searched product on the website! I was very curious. Yup, they are straws made out of cereal. You can put them in a cup of milk and sip the milk through the straw. We tried the Cocoa Krispies straws. Did we like it?
Yes, we loved it, but for all the wrong reasons. It was fun to use - drinking milk through a straw made of cereal and fudge coating. It was novel and unique.
A package of 24 straws (3 straws make 1 serving) cost $3.97 including tax from Smiths/Kroger. None of the employees had ever heard of these, but we ended up finding them on the bottom shelf where noone could see them.
There is no coupon to make them more reasonably priced, which is unusual since it is a new product. And there is not much nutrition - similar to sweet cereal.
Would I buy them again? Probably not. But my grandkids thought I was a cool granny when I poured them milk and passed out the straws!
Until next time...
