review: *new* Corn Flakes Extra

I wasn't planning on reviewing this today but it's funny how things work out. I tried each component separately first: the corn flakes are lightly sweetened, the dried cranberries even less, and the almond slices are just that. I know that sounds boring but when you combine the three, it's pretty satisfying. If they'd used plain Corn Flakes instead I don't think they would've held up (taste-wise or texture-wise, to a lesser extent. It is still a corn flake, after all). But yeah, here is one cereal that delivers exactly what it promises, nothing more, nothing less.
