The large ones are horrible.
The mini ones are delicious. You just have to race the milk, to see
whether you can eat a few before the milk turns them into a thick
paste. I eat them dry, without anything and they are nice and
crispy-crunchy. What more does one want? Taste? Eat something
tasty, not shredded wheat, if that is what you want.
