I reviewed this cereal recently…after I found it in the 99 cents sore! Ugh. Pretty box, though.

Colby mentioned Stevia…. The FDA has not approved Stevia for consumption as a food product (because of the whole “possible liver damage” thing). Once that happens, we will see Coke with Stevia, Life cereal with Stevia. From what I understand, the cola companies are REALLY working on this happening (and funding a lot of the research).

The first time I ate the Chocolate Special K I, too, was not impressed. However, when I went on a diet and got used to no sugar, all of a sudden it tasted pretty good! Really, and truly! THEN I tried Anna’s idea about warming the chocolate a bit. She’s soooooooo right! Once warm, the chocolate adds flavor. I, of course, was eating the Special K, but if the clusters is anything like that, I’m looking forward to trying it!
Hey .. by the way .. I love the idea of a healthy, chocolate cereal that turns the milk slightly chocolatety! Of course, not so much that they have to add sweetener to it. The after-taste would ruin it. Just add a FEW of those flakes that normally change the milk to chocolate should work!
All in all, I’m back eating cereal after all these years, and this has been my very favorite diet ever!

I accidentally discovered a way to make the Special K chocolate go from decent to awesome. I left a box of it in the trunk of my car, intending to take it to work, and over the course of a few days, it melted just enough to make yummy chocolate covered flake clusters that are absolutely amazing. No more chocolate sinking to the bottom! So with just a teeny bit of heat, this cereal is now my absolute favorite!

We love the chocolate delight.. its the bomb digity.. Were on weight watchers, this is a 2 point cereal, very filling, and we don’t mind that the chocolate falls to the bottom, kind of like the desert at the end of a good meal, special K is awesome by itself, but add chocolate and yumm, can’t keep enough of it.. our 12 yr old loves it, she can eat a box in a few days, and its low fat, high in vitamin,s yummy great…

^^^ A healthier alternative to sucralose would be Stevia extract. It’s all natural!!

I just tried the Special K Chocolate Delight and was not delighted. The chocolate has no flavor, and as someone else mentioned, is waxy. I wish they also would add more fiber to the cereal and remove some of the sugar; perhaps replacing it with sucralose or something. This would help to add flavor to the chocolate pieces without cranking up the carb levels, which are already high. You might as well eat a chocolate granola bar snack than eat this cereal. At least it would taste like chocolate!
