I picked up this Kellogg’s Original Squishmallows Cereal from Target which the price is $5.39 and comes in 11.6 oz size box. There is like millions of Squishmallows all over the box and now I feel like I’m a Squishmallow myself. Not really happy with this cereal as it has artificial colors in the ingredients. On top of that artificial flavors is not really my interest either. I got all my Squishmallow friends from McDonald’s Happy Meal for this cereal tasting.

Red 40

Are you kidding me, it’s 2025 and most companies are removing this by now. I guess Kellogg’s still in the process or not but I think it should not have been in the ingredients to begin with. Starting the day with artificial colors might just be the worst way to start. And then followed by artificial flavorings, is this breakfast or just another junk food.

Squishmallows Cereal Taste is 5 Stars 

Despite the artificial flavoring along with natural, the flavor is just beyond this world. Tastes like you are in the clouds eating marshmallows with all the Squishmallow friends. Absolutely delicious on each bite with just tastes like corn cereal with marshmallows. The milk enhances the marshmallows side of taste and becomes milky.

CAM Shapes

As far as the marshmallows goes, I found them in 3 colors and the blue just dominates. It’s like 70% blue CAM Marshmallows while just a little bit of the other two colors. Feels like there is just 5% of the pink color as that is the least of all the colors. I love how the marshmallows are in the shape of CAM.

I Don’t Recommend 

The taste is superior and delicious but due to low quality ingredients I don’t really recommend this cereal. In fact, I think it might even be dangerous to kids as it has artificial colors including Red 40. This said, I really wish they could improve on the ingredients because the taste is amazing. Check out the Bluey Cereal which I think the ingredients are way better.
