I had never ate "Special K" but after eating a bowl at my moms, I was hooked. I love almonds in my cereal and require my cereal to have some kind of fruit. I wasn't sure about apple and raspberry, but, OMG !!! they were so good . The fruits blended really well with the almonds and every bite I took either had fruit in the spoonful or an almond, or both sometimes. Even my last bite had one or the other.
