reviews: Mighty Life Strawberry Blueberry Bliss and Cheerios Veggie Blends -- apple strawberry

 (Because I realized I'm never going to catch up if I don't start doubling up!)

1. They stuck the "Mighty" on this Life because of the supposed immune support benefits. I say just add some fresh berries to this anyway. But let's get to the cereal review: finally, a berry flavor of Life, which I'd been wanting for a long time (even though there was Life Crunchtime, which, while a Life product, was not the classic woven cereal). There was a hint of a scent, which was just enough for me, and the flavor was a more...realistic, let's say, version of berries than the last cereal I reviewed. It was reminiscent of Trix but dialed waaaaay back--and probably with less sugar. It's pretty good, and pretty much what I would want from a Life cereal. TBD: how the vanilla variety stacks up.

2. For the Cheerios Veggie Blends, I managed to snag a box of this just before it disappeared from store shelves. Everything is Protein now, but I can't do the artificial powdery stuff. Anyway, why are there three colors if there's only two flavors? Is one of them plain? I didn't notice when I sampled because I was too busy trying to nail down the flavors--apple-ish (or what passes for apple in a cereal) and strawberry. So you could say I detected their intentions. The o's are small and crisp, as opposed to the puffy kind found here and here. I guess they were just okay? I failed to render a verdict at the end of the draft of this review 😅
