    I don’t recommend the generic for mini wheats though. I tried it, and as someone who always seeks the store brand for stuff I was not impressed.

      I actually like the generic mini wheats better. I much prefer the generic cinnamon toasts too. The name brands taste weird to me now, like they have too much iron in them or something. Tastes metallic to me.

        With the mini wheats, there are also a few different styles, mostly in how finely shredded the fibers (or whatever) are, how they’re compressed, what the size is, and the thickness of the frosting. Like, the Post is barely the same cereal as the Kellogg’s, and the store brands play around with the ratios too. It’s really a matter of preference.
