Junk Food Nation, a warning – this video is not for the faint of stomach.  My jaw dropped when I saw it. If you’re one who gets upset at the sight of blood, do not watch this video (it’s not gory, it’s just very in your face with the raw meat).  If you’re one who doesn’t like to see meat butchered, do not watch this video. And if you’re one who gets grossed out by raw meat generally, then definitely do not watch this video.  Ok. I warned you.  SERIOUSLY, I WARNED YOU.

But: if you ARE someone who likes steak tartare once in a while, like me, consider this video, which apparently shows meat so freshly slaughtered that it is STILL MOVING EVEN AFTER BEING CUT.  Holy hell.

YEAH.  YEAH, I TOLD YOU IT WAS WEIRD AND NOT FOR THE FAINT OF STOMACH.  Wow, though, huh?  That….I didn’t know that this existed, until yesterday when my friend Eugene put it on Facebook.  Now I can’t ever un-see this.  Great googly moogly.

Today’s junk food: Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal!

Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal: The Money Shot

I know what you’re thinking – Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal?? I thought this was a junk food blog, not a cereal blog!!  WHAT GIVES, JFG!?

It’s true, I haven’t reviewed a tons of cereals on this blog (really, only these),

Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal: Like distorted cinnamon toast crunch

The exceptions, of course, lie where a cereal is so sugary that it might as well be junk food.  Junk Food in a bowl, that you pour milk on.  Is this Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal junk food?  I wasn’t sure when I bought it.

Locally a brand new Wegmans store opened, and as an initial giveaway, they gave out free boxes of any Wegmans-brand cereal.  I immediately gravitated toward the sugariest one I could see, this one.  My mind flashed: BLUEBERRY CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH?? EAT ME.

Of course, these are muffin squares, NOT toast crunch.  Silly me.

Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal: 130 per serving

Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal: No cinnamon, but LOTS of sugar

Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal has real blueberries AND blueberry flavor, because…you clearly need both.

Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal: furry with sugar!

I opened this box of Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal and sniffed, and I swear, IT SMELLED EXACTLY LIKE BLUEBERRY MUFFINS.  My first thought, to be honest, was that it was a little TOO on point – what kind of weird chemicals were in this cereal to make it taste SO accurate?

Nevermind, I was hungry….time to munch.

Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal: blueberry bits

Like most people, I can eat a sugary cereal as a snack WITHOUT milk, and this Wegmans Blueberry Muffin Squares Cereal fits that mold.  I discussed these on the Nosh Show in Episode 14, but I’ll restate it here:  THIS WAS DAMN GOOD CEREAL.

First, texture wise, it reminded me a LOT of cinnamon toast crunch.  Wavy squares of rice/wheat cereal, the individual cereal pieces were light, crunchy, and as I chewed, full of satisfying carbohydrate flavor.   Bready.  Filling.

Each piece tasted like blueberry muffins, too!  Or, like blueberry Pop-Tarts.  Either way – you know what I’m talking about.  That pastry-like blueberry taste, sickeningly sweet at times, but very recognizable.

And to top it all off, THERE WAS SUGAR EVERYWHERE!!!! It reminded me a lot fo the sugar that often sprinkles the tops of blueberry muffins; this cereal tasted very much like a blueberry muffin top.  Excellent smell, and flavor, really.

Verdict? Yep, this is junk food.  It’s a blueberry sugar bomb that is PURE carbohydrate – this ain’t Grape Nuts.  And it was very good. VERY good.

PURCHASED AT: McDonalds.  Just kidding.  Wegmans.

COST: $1.99 normally, but FREE FOR MEEEEEE
