From: Kellogg's
Introduced in 2013


As of May 2016, Kellogg's offered two kinds of Special K Protein Cereals: 1) a non-specific, generic flaked cereal simply called Special K Protein; and 2) a rippled wafer cereal called Cinnamon Brown Sugar Crunch Special K Protein. The cereals offer 10 grams and 11 grams of protein per serving, respectively.

In the last few years, it's been hard to pin down exactly what Special K Protein cereal might be on any given shopping trip. Besides the flaked and wafer cereals, there's also been a version consisting of oats, crispy rice and miniature wafers that was described as a "crunchy cereal with a touch of vanilla flavor." In the U.K., there's a cereal called Special K Protein Crunch that's made up of granola clusters.

To further complicate the definition of Special K Protein Cereal, it should be noted that Special K Protein Plus Cereal was introduced in 2006, many years before the current incarnations.





Company Description: Kellogg's was originally founded as the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company in 1906. The company's founder Will Keith Kellogg is credited with inventing corn flakes along with his brother John Harvey Kellogg. The company was renamed the Kellogg Company in 1922...

Update to my prior review. Kellogg's has changed the recipe for this cereal. It no longer is reminiscent of Post Oat Flakes and I can no longer recommend. The change is bad enough that I will no longer purchase.

If you were a fan of Post Oat Flakes, give Special K Protein Flakes a try.
