What You Should Know

You’d spot this box in the breakfast or health-food aisle, grabbed by shoppers seeking a grain-free, protein-forward swap for traditional cereal. It feels nostalgic yet modern—a convenient, 'better-for-you' take on cinnamon toast—while the ingredient list and likely extrusion/baking process (pea protein, tapioca/starches, natural flavors, added sweeteners) point to industrial formulation and a crisp, uniform texture common in ultra-processed products.
