review: *new* Rice Krispies Multigrain Shapes

I finally got around to opening this over the weekend. As I struggled with the bag (sometimes I'm not patient when I'm hungry) I thought I smelled maple. Then, once I got the bag open, maybe cinnamon. Then I looked at the box: "lightly sweetened graham flavored cereal." Ooookay. How do you flavor something like "graham?" I don't even know if I could put my finger on what graham--or a graham cracker, probably--tastes like. And the shapes seem totally random: a person, a tree, a star (?) and one other thing. I'm assuming there's a commercial that explains this but I haven't yet looked for it.

Also, owing to the multi-graininess, the individual puffed pieces are larger than original Rice Krispies. It's not a bad flavor, but not a must-buy again.

fun on a bun...

Technically, the bun is optional but I just have to recommend these Spice-Rubbed Chicken Breasts.  I thought it sounded like a different kind of chicken sandwich for me and I'd never made a rub before. I have plenty of recipes but none which triggered an immediate response of, "I must try this." Also, I'd never purchased cumin before. It smells like the primary ingredient in a packet of taco seasoning, so you can see why it would need to be balanced out with brown sugar. Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
