Cinnamon Churro Cereal is a Reality?

Fair season has been in full swing for some time now, but we’re actually surprised that it took us this long to find out about these Post-brand Mini Cinnamon Churros cereal. Labeled as “crunchy sweetened wheat cereal with real cinnamon,” and are currently for sale on Amazon and other websites for upwards of $25 for a pack of three. I guess if you don’t have these at your local grocery store, and you have a churro-hankering in the form of cereal, than you’ll pay the premium. Here’s the product description:

Churros are a traditional dessert created centuries ago by Spanish shepherds tending to the churra sheep. Since fresh baked goods were hard to come by high up in the mountains, the shepherds made these twisty shaped treats in a pan over an open fire. They named this creation after the churra sheep because the pastry resembled the sheeps horns. It was only a matter of time before churros traveled to South America and other countries, eventually making their way to North America. Once poeple outside of Spain adopted this tasty treat, they continued to evolve and churros were enjoyed plain, covered in sugar and cinnamon and even filled with jam or custard. Today, you can enjoy Mini Cinnamon Churros Cereal for breakfast, as a snack or dessert or any time from your own kitchen pantry!
