As any kid can tell you, a spoonful of sugar and cinnamon helps the cereal go down.

General Mills’ new Cinnamon Grahams cereal, a variation on the popular Golden Grahams, was a hit with The Spokesman-Review’s reader food panel, which found it flavorful without being overly sweet.

Kids should like it, too. Just don’t try handing out one square at time for Halloween.
