• Honey Bunches of Oats Granola: three new flavors including Toffee Almond, Maple Pecan and French Vanilla Almond expand this growing granola line. The zip-sealed bags provide freshness and versatility as a cereal, snack or yogurt topping.

"We continue to listen closely to our consumers and evolve our brands to deliver some of best tasting cereals available," said Roxanne Bernstein, chief marketing officer at Post Consumer Brands. "This summer is jam-packed with new and delicious additions.
