Krave is a chocolate cereal made by Kelllog. It was introduced in the UK in 2010, marketed under the slogan "Taste Unleashed", later "Here ChoccyChoccy". The adverts feature the cereal pieces hunting blocks of chocolate. Kraveinthecafeteriabetweenthecereals http://en.wikipedia.org
Let’s take a look inside…What you need to know:Let’s start with the ingredient list: • ChocolateFlavoredFilling (sugar, soybeanoil, skimmilk, cocoa, chocolate, soylecithin, palmoil, vanillaextract), sugar, wholegrainoatflour, wholewheatflour, riceflour, oatfiber, cornbran, contains 2% or less of: brownsugarsyrup, salt, palmoil, artificialflavor, mixed tocopherolsforfreshness, betacaroteneforcolor, annattocolor, BHT forfreshness. Vitamins & Minerals…. http://www.kelloggs.com
As you can see, the first ingredient is sugar. The chocolate filling is more sugar and oil than actual chocolate. The palm oil helps keep the filling from melting at room temperature. Soy lecithin is commonly used in chocolates as an emulsifier, to keep the blend of ingredients … blended. The “Made with real chocolate” claim is a bit misleading here. You’d think there would be some serious chocolate here, not some flavoring mix… The second ingredient after the filling is yet again sugar. The total sugar in this product is 11 grams, just under 3 teaspoons, per serving. For perspective, that 44 calories out of a total of 120 calories per serving. So over one third of each serving is sugar! http://www.theimpulsivebuy.com

Other Kellogg’s Krave Chocolate Cereal reviews: Item: Kellogg’s Krave Chocolate CerealPrice: $5.00 per box (4-pack for $20)Size: 11.4 ounce boxPurchased at: AmazonRating: 7 out of 10Pros: Nice chocolate smell. Appropriately crunchy. Lightly sweetened. Chocolate flavor builds as you eat more. Retains its crunchiness fairly well in milk. Has whole grains and no high fructose corn syrup. Eating chocolate for breakfast. CinnamonToast Crunch. Britney Spears’ first album.Cons: Amount of chocolate may be disappointing if you’re only eating a small serving. Doesn’t leave behind chocolate milk. Kind of pricey, now that I think about it. Amazon not allowing me to buy a single box. Cereal cannibalism. Not living across the street from the office.
