Bhut acha ha mari ladki bhut kush hui

Everyone looks for easy breakfast options today, owing to fast forward life where one has little time in the morning to cook breakfast. So people go for corn flakes, chocos, oats, etc with nuts and fruits.

In the same league comes this strawberry flavor of corn flakes which i got for the same purpose. But was disappointed in the way strawberry corn flakes are made. Unlike Banana, almond etc, where we do have actual chips of these, its just syrup coated flakes (or say puree coated, in company’s terms)

PROS
••••••••

1. Nutrient-rich corn flakes.
2. Tasty strawberry flavor when eaten raw. In milk its all dissolved & transferred to milk.

••••••••
CONS
••••••••

1. Pricey for just the strawberry flavor. (Rs 350/kg classic vs Rs 450/kg strawberry flavor). More details in point two.

2. For the flavor corn flakes, chips are coated with what they call strawberry puree (which tasted a lot like strawberry flavor or syrup). When it’s in milk, within no time strawberry flavor is dissolved in milk and we have classic corn flakes left with flavor in milk. Unlike chocos, which if fully soaked in milk retains its taste & flavor, this loses all of its flavor to the milk.

I don’t find its cost justifiable to the way flavor is imparted to corn flakes. It would have been better if there were actual dry pieces of strawberry instead of strawberry syrup or puree (who knows what) coated flakes.

▶ As per ingredients, its just 2.5% strawberry puree & they have also used beet root extract to impart color. So ★★★ stars.

RECIPE
••••••••••

A healthy & tasty combination of corn flakes is with milk, choice of nuts, cranberry & blueberry (without sugar & preferably with classic corn flakes).

VERDICT
••••••••••••

▶ Better to purchase classic corn flakes for half the price along with desired milk flavor, as when in milk it’s the same as classic one with flavor in milk.

▶ Yes if you want to eat it without milk, then it’s crispy & tastes really good. I keep it for that purpose only and never drip it in milk.

▶ Cold milk may be a solution to this, but even in cold milk after a few minutes, it becomes soggy with all flavor transferred to milk.
