From: Malt-O-Meal
Introduced in 1997


This cereal is described on the box as a "lightly sweetened whole grain wheat cereal." Additional text encourages shoppers to "compare to Frosted Mini-Wheats Cereal."

Company Description: The Malt-O-Meal Company dates back to 1919 when John S. Campbell developed a hot wheat breakfast cereal he called Malt-O-Meal. The company officially adopted the name The Malt-O-Meal Company in 1953. By 1965, the company had entered the ready-to-eat non-hot breakfast sector with the introduction of Puffed Rice and Puffed Wheat cereals.... Read on and see all cereals from Malt-O-Meal

Very good, but after eating all of the Spooners you are left with a lot of sugar and shreds at the bottom of the bag. Trying to figure out what can be done with it, short of throwing it away.

Love Frosted Mini Spooners, but the sugar falls off too quick in milk, and the small boxes are half full, whereas the big boxes are full.

These are damn good, every bit as good as Frosted Mini Wheats for less then half the price. Whenever I go down across the line (US border), I grab a couple bags of this.

I love it! Just as good as the big brand stuff but way more affordable.
