review: *new* Tres Leches Cinnamon Toast Crunch

 It seems I have a backlog of reviews. I don't think that's ever happened before...😄

So how is this any different from Dulce de Leche Toast Crunch? Besides dos más leches? You know, I'm going to finish this review first and then go back and check. Sniff test: There's a dulling of the standard Cinnamon Toast Crunch cinnamon blend, but what from? Taste: Ok, something's off...is that...caramel? Yeah, I think that's supposed to be a caramel flavor. I should point that I've never had dulce de leche or tres leches cake due to my lactose intolerance so I can only guess at the authenticity/accuracy of this flavor. It's sweet, but not particularly sugary or honeyed, so I have no idea how they arrived at this finished product. It's just ok for me, not my favorite take on Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

Oh wait, let me go back to my other review for a sec...ah, ok, Dulce de Leche was more cinnamon-forward, so I can see why they went back to the drawing board to try to top it.

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.
