so when i saw THIS at the store here in barcelona, i knew 'i gotta have my pops!'
what i didn't notice was the enlarged picture of the pieces, but i sure noticed when i poured it into the bowl. instead of the familiar cereal of my early twenties, i was greeted by this:
in case you can't see them clearly, they're oblong mealy puffs of not-corn. biting one open and googling led me to discover that they're hollow and have hazelnut flavoring throughout. they're not bad tasting, just pretty disappointing when i was expecting corn pops (the miel pops seemed like an easy translation). i wonder what 'pops' are like in other countries! ;)

That WOULD be disappointing when you're expecting the pops of your youth...
Poor Crumb.
Ewwww. Sorry, friend!! Facebook message me your address in Spain!!!
Hazelnuts and malt are gettin' in all the junk over here in Europe. Stop the madness.
I miss American cereal too.
(Read: I miss sugar, artificial colouring, and flavour)
As usual sorry about the UK spellings. My computer yells at me...
