The KIND Cereal is a new offering from the snack bar brand that will offer consumers an alternative, health-focused way for them to fuel up in the morning.

The cereals are packed with between five and six grams of protein per serving, and are each gluten-free to make them suitable for a wide range of consumers. The cereals will come in four flavor options including Apple Cinnamon, Dark Chocolate Almond, Cranberry Almond and Honey Almond. Each flavor starts off with a base of super grain flakes before being paired with a number of tasty finishing touches.

The KIND Cereal is being launched as a Walmart exclusive where consumers can pick up a 15 ounce box for $6.98. The cereal, although perfect for breakfast, is also ideal as a snack or healthy dessert alternative.
