Special K Pumpkin Spice Mini Wheats Review


We recently received a few samples of Special K limited edition cereals to try.  We already reviewed Special K Cinnamon Crunch and now it’s time to review Special K Pumpkin Spice Mini Wheats. 

As we always do, we sampled some straight out of the box.  I expected to be hit over the head with the pumpkin flavor…but I was not.  It was good, but not really as ‘pumpkiny’ as I had hoped for.  When we added milk, we released a little more of the pumpkin flavor.  However, it was still a more subdued pumpkin flavor…good, but not fabulous.   

The stats on this cereal are 190 calories for each 25 biscuits with 5 grams of protein…even before adding milk.  It also has 12 grams of sugar and 6 grams of fiber and is made with whole grains.   

If you like mini wheats, you will enjoy this limited edition cereal.  I might buy it again as a special treat, but if I had to choose between the two I just reviewed, the Special K Cinnamon Crunch would win out.
