French Toast Crunch (Original)

General Mills released miniature toast-shaped cereal pieces in 1995 that tasted exactly like French toast dipped in maple syrup. The toast shape was the key — each piece had tiny cinnamon-sugar pockets that held more flavor than a flat cereal ever could. Discontinued in the US in 2006 (Canada kept it), the outrage was loud enough that General Mills brought it back in 2015. But purists insist the reformulated version has a slightly different cinnamon-to-maple ratio. The original was a Saturday-morning masterpiece.
