My earlier post had been about some new chocolate (or chocolatey) cereals. Phoebe had commented that another cereal has joined the breakfast game: Kellogg’s Frosted Mini-Wheats Little Bites Chocolate. I have now had a chance to try it.
First of all, cereal names are starting to get way too long. I have thus abbreviated Frosted Mini-Wheats Little Bites Chocolate to FMWLBC. Perhaps the long name contributes to what some are claiming is an identity crisis.
Second, it has a decent taste but that comes at a price: calories.
My updated rankings are:
- HBOwrcc – it has decent taste with the best nutrition
- CChex – it has the best taste with the worst nutrition
- FMWLBC – it has good taste with the worst nutrition
- SKCD – it has the worst taste with the worst nutrition
And here is the nutrition information:
FMWLBC has the worst nutrition

The only redeeming nutrition factor is that it has a lot of fiber. But there are less-sugary ways to get fiber in your diet if that’s what you want. The other plus is that it uses real sugar and real chocolate, with no corn syrup.
The house of Israel named it manna, and it was like coriander seed, white, and its taste was like wafers with honey.
