Cinnamon Crunch Crispix
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cinnamon Crunch Crispix™ is a brand of Kellogg's cereal, based on Crispix, described by the company as a "[c]rispy corn and rice cereal with a cinnamon taste." Its box boasts its unique composition, of "Corn on One Side, Rice on the Other". The cereal itself is in a hexagon shape. The two sides are made in a lattice pattern and connect only at the edges, the center is open allowing for great crunch. They are a great snack food by themselves, breakfast food if served in milk, and a heartier snack if mixed with yogurt.
The cereal is sold in various sizes, including 1 oz, 13.5 oz, 31.4 oz.
It is Kosher/Parve. It is also vegan.

[edit] Discontinued
Cinnamon Crunch Crispix joined a number of cereals discontinued by Kellogg's after disappointing sales. Perhaps due to its short existence, the cereal has gained somewhat of a cult following. Kellogg's received multiple complaints about the decision to remove it from grocery store aisles. They have shown no hint of bringing the cereal back.
