From: General Mills
Introduced in 2009


This cereal is described on the front of the box as a "sweetened corn and oat cereal flavored with real banana and natural banana and nut flavors."

The back of the box goes on to describe it like this: "The wholesome goodness of Cheerios cereal with the great taste of REAL banana baked into every delicious bite. Heart healthy nutrition baked into an incredibly delicious cereal."

Banana Nut Cheerios has a taste very reminiscent of home-baked banana bread.

The cereal was discontinued in 2015.

Banana Nut Cheerios was reintroduced in 2017 as a limited edition cereal. The back of the box upon the cereal reintroduction read: "Go bananas. Banana Nut Cheerios are a delicious combination of real banana puree, cinnamon spice and oats, that you and your family are sure to go nuts for."





In 2017, the ingredients listed on the nutritional panel were whole grain oats, sugar, corn starch, brown sugar syrup, salt, canola oil, banana puree, baking soda, cinnamon, natural flavor, natural pecan flavor, vitamin E added for freshness and a smattering of other vitamins and minerals.





Company Description: Officially created in 1928, General Mills traces it's history back to the 1860's and the ownership of two flour mills. Since then, the company has become the world's 6th largest food company - marketing to over 100 countries... Read on and see all cereals from General Mills

What happen to this cereal? Why did they quit making it? It was the best Cheerios they had. Every time I really like something, it goes away. Can't find it in the store no-more anywhere. It's really sad. I wish they would please bring it back.
