![]() (Side note - does anyone remember Waffle Crunch? It was my favorite breakfast cereal, and I was devastated when they discontinued it.) It has a strong maple flavor, but I found it to be more bitter than the other two varieties. This one reminds me a little of Waffle Crunch, except with an artificial aftertaste. I almost didn’t try the Maple Waffle flavor, but I found it in the snack aisle of my local Publix while I was picking up some vegan ice cream. It paired nicely with some creamy almond milk. The Dark Chocolate flavoring was a much richer, stronger flavor. This flavor has a bit of an aftertaste as well, but I felt like the cocoa flavoring covered up the artificial flavoring much better. ![]() Much like the Cinnamon Toast flavor, it had that satisfying crunch of a good breakfast cereal. That rich cocoa taste filled my mouth, and I almost forgot it was a keto cereal. The label of the Dark Chocolate Catalina Crunch didn’t make it clear which cereal it was imitating, but as soon as I took a bite, I tasted Cocoa Puffs. While I was eating it, I really enjoyed it, but I did notice a bit of a bitter aftertaste that had me reaching for some diet soda as a chaser. It was very crunchy, which I love, and it really took care of the carb craving that I had. I also caught a bit of a maple flavor, which reminded me of French toast doused in syrup. The shape of the cereal pieces closely resembles the shape of the cinnamon toast pieces, and the cinnamon flavor is reminiscent of its namesake. Catalina Crunch Cinnamon ToastĬatalina Crunch’s Cinnamon Toast flavor appears to be imitating one of my favorite breakfast cereals, Cinnamon Toast Crunch. As keto snacks are a bit expensive, I opted to try 3 varieties: Cinnamon Toast, Dark Chocolate, and Maple Waffle. There are 6 varieties available on Amazon: Cinnamon Toast, Dark Chocolate, Maple Waffle, Graham Cracker, Chocolate Banana, and Mint Chocolate (plus 2 more on their website - Fruity and Chocolate Peanut Butter). ![]() It has no gluten, no dairy, and very few carbs. After a few months of searching on and off, I finally found Catalina Crunch. I found a few keto cereals, but they all included dairy, and dairy doesn’t really agree with me. Once I started switching to a lower carb diet, I really wanted something to satisfy that milky, crunchy gap in my diet. So it’s safe to say: cereal is in my blood. Every time we would visit, we would have big bowls of cereal and fight over the toy inside the box. My grandfather worked for a cereal company for 35 years, and he got to take home huge pallets of expired cereal every month. Like many people, I grew up eating cereal for breakfast. ![]()
