review: *new* Shredded Wheat -- Frosted Cinnamon Roll

The second of three flavors to try. I don't know exactly what Post is up to but they're definitely giving Frosted Mini-Wheats a run for their money.

First, the sniff test; instead of the whole box I just sniffed one piece--it smelled like cinnamon sugar. Then I tasted it and got a hint of vanilla; just enough, not over- or underwhelming. I was afraid it would have a gooey vanilla frosting center so I was glad that wasn't the case. Needless to say (but I'll say it anyway) the cinnamon and vanilla flavors complemented each other nicely. I wouldn't exactly call it a cinnamon roll, but I'd still call it good. 😊

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.
