In honor of National Cereal Day, March 7, Ben & Jerry's released three new flavors starring some of your favorite cereals. Fruit Loot, Cocoa Loco, and Frozen Flakes are B&J's Cereal Splashback flavors that pay a nostalgic tribute to childhood cereal favorites. Like the milk at the bottom of the cereal bowl in frozen form, these ice creams are creamy, sweet, and a little crunchy. "Why combine ice cream and cereal? Because the sweet milk at the bottom of a cereal bowl is arguably the best part," Ben & Jerry's Flavor Guru Eric Fredette said in a statement.

We didn't think another new Ben & Jerry's product could be as amazing as the Pint Slices, but we're just as impressed with these inventive creations. The only catch is these flavors won't be available in grocery stores, but only at Ben & Jerry's scoop shops starting on March 7. Curious about how each one tastes? Read on for our investigative reviews of the brand-new dessert.

Fruit Loot

This fruity flavor tastes exactly like cereal milk, and we want every last drop. Some people felt the swirl's texture was a bit too grainy, but we love how reminiscent of one of our favorite cereals it really is. Give us some extra Froot Loops to crumble on top, and we're set.

Cocoa Loco

This is our favorite flavor by far. Somewhat reminiscent of Whoppers, this crunchy cocoa ice cream has the slightest malt flavor. "Tastes like chocolate milk! Love the crunchy texture and cocoa flavor," one reviewer wrote. Imagine mixing Nesquik into vanilla ice cream and then adding crushed-up Cocoa Puffs — yeah, we're craving another bite, too. ★★★★★

Frozen Flakes

While this ice cream is super sweet and refreshing, it's a little lacking in the cereal department — we wanted more crunch. It has a subtle flavor, but it's admittedly "kind of bland," as one one of our tasters noted. ★★☆☆

You can't go wrong with any Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavor, but if you're debating which one of these three to try, we'd recommend going with one of the first two. And if you don't have a scoop shop near you, we won't judge you for adding your favorite cereal to your melted Ben & Jerry's instead.
