Cheerios has come out with a new flavour in Canada – blueberry. It is made with real blueberry puree. No artificial colours or flavours. It’s been a while since I last ate Cheerios, so it’s a great time to start again with a few new flavours that they’ve launched.
Blueberry is a great flavour for breakfast as it does great with pancakes, smoothies and oatmeal. Makes sense that it might just work well with cereal.
Where to find them
I found this on sale at Buy-Low Foods in Burnaby, BC, but you can find them at most major grocery stores like Superstore.
How much is it?
I found them on sale for just under $3 at both Buy-Low Foods and Superstore.
What’s inside the box?
Inside the box is the 309g box of Blueberry Cheerios.
Taste Test
When I opened the box, the smell was sweet and reminded me of Kernels Popcorn. The sweet blueberry aroma lingered as I poured it into my bowl.
The Cheerios are round but dark purple from the blueberry puree.
As I ate this with milk, it really wasn’t overly sweet which was nice. As the Blueberry Cheerios soaks in the milk as I ate it, it turned the milk blue. I also tried eating this with real blueberries and it added a nice freshness to the morning meal.

Final Thoughts
Overall, it’s an alright cereal. I didn’t love it and I didn’t hate it. It has a hint of sweetness from the blueberry coating. I was glad I tried it, but I’m not compelled to finish a few more boxes of this flavour. If you love blueberries and Cheerios, then this might just be the cereal for you.

Love the cereal and even better with frozen fruit on top with milk. Maybe even better with warm milk on a cold day.
I am sure the rest of the new flavours are equally as good tasting …trying out the maple and Kisses.
Next flavours will be bought when I can find them on store shelves.
Great senior citizens food.
