Aldi, like most grocers, sells a pretty decent lineup of house brand, private label cereals, but also sells a few name brand cereals, too. Here weāre going to look at Aldiās house brand cereals, nearly all of which fall under the Millville label. Click to enlarge.
They admitted to having tried and been let down by other Millville cereals, but rates the Cinnamon Crunch Squares as “a very strong buy.” NJ.com named Aldi’s Millville Cocoa Rice as one of the top breakfast cereals available in the state, despite the fact that it’s not actually produced in Millville, New Jersey.
The Aldi Regular Buy version of Postsās Honey Bunches of Oats, Millville Honey Crunch ān Oats is a concoction of flakes, oats, and honey. Itās a decent impersonation of itās name-brand counterpart, although we wonder if itās a little lighter on the oats. Regardless, itās a pretty good cereal, and has just the right amount of sweetness.
Cocoa Rice is chocolatey good NJ.com named Aldi’s Millville Cocoa Rice as one of the top breakfast cereals available in the state, despite the fact that it’s not actually produced in Millville, New Jersey. They say that this Cocoa Krispies clone actually tastes like real chocolate, and describe it as a “surprise hit.”
What is Aldi’s cereal called?
Aldi’s in-house brand of cereal is called Millville, and despite any similarities in name, it is, in fact, not produced by General Mills. Instead, some intrepid sleuthing by Medium unearthed the fact that Millville is produced by Malt-O-Meal, or, as they are now known, MOM. And while Mom may know best when it comes to what you should be eating …
Cinnamon Crunch Squares are even better than the name brand. This cereal is obviously an homage to (okay, generic version of) Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but Mister B Grades thought it tasted like it had extra cinnamon and sugar in its powdery coating, which made it even more “toothsome” than the General Mills version.
Aldi Reviewer grudgingly admits that Millville’s Crispy Oats (the regular version, not the Honey Oat) are the best of a bad lot of Cheeri-Nos, but says that they still don’t live up to the original oat cereal.
While some Aldi cereals are as good or better than their (usually, but not always) higher-priced name-brand counterparts, others just aren’ t bowl-worthy.
Since the name Frosted Flakes is not trademarked by Kellogg’s, Aldi/Millville didn’t have to come up with a soundalike name for this product. While the name is the same, the recipe is somewhat different ā both Mister B Grades and The Aldi Spot seemed to find the Millville version to taste sweeter, although the package labels reveal that both cereals contain the same amount of sugar. Mister B Grades also found this cereal to hold up better to a bowlful of milk, while The Aldi Spot ‘s reviewer appreciated the low price, and her kids preferred the taste of the product to those flakes that Tony shills for.
How much sugar is in Millville cereal?
It features ācrispy puffed corn cereal with a touch of sweetness.ā. At 15 grams of sugar per serving, itās got a fairly high sugar content, but we cannot taste any discernible difference between the Millville brand and the pricier Kellogās brand.
The Aldi Regular Buy version of Postsās Honey Bunches of Oats, Millville Honey Crunch ān Oats is a concoction of flakes, oats, and honey. Itās a decent impersonation of itās name-brand counterpart, although we wonder if itās a little lighter on the oats. Regardless, itās a pretty good cereal, and has just the right amount of sweetness.
The Aldi brand has 10 grams of sugar per 3/4 cup serving.
Aldi sells their take on Cheerios in regular, honey nut, and multigrain versions. Now, if thereās one thing Iāve learned over the years, itās that generic oat cereal doesnāt usually match the taste of Cheerios.
This number made its debut in the Aldi lineup in late 2018 / early 2019 , and itās Aldiās take on Quaker Oats Life Cereal. Life is one of my favorite cereals, and Iām hard-pressed to taste any difference between the Aldi version and the name brand. It has about 8 grams of sugar per serving.
Generic cereals have a mixed record among consumers . Some of them are pretty good, but a lot of them are viewed as inferior to name brands. (Weāre looking at you, generic toasted oats.) Aldi, like most grocers, sells a pretty decent lineup of house brand, private label cereals, but also sells a few name brand cereals, too.
This is Aldiās version of Kelloggās Raisin Bran Crunch, and it is an excellent version indeed. Itās got whole grain flakes, crunchy granola, and a decent amount of raisins. It tastes great and is one of my favorite cereals, and is also a good source of vitamins and minerals, plus 5 grams of dietary fiber.
