Changed the recipe….again
They've done this every like 10 years. Change the recipe they turn it to cardboard. People stop buying it, like me. Then are forced to go back to the old recipe. Call me when y'all go back. Until then, good luck. They really suck right now.

I'm so disappointed, wow
PLEASE for the love of god change the recipe back. This has been my favorite cereal for the longest and I did buy a box in a few months, I purchase one a few days ago and it's disgusting. Very grainy, barely taste like honey, extra small and flat. I absolutely hate it wow. This is not fair! The little girl in me is crying. Pls change it back.

Changed it again:(
Tried a box recently and they changed the recipe again. Tastes stale and has a terrible texture on the inside. Very grainy. Inedible. The cereal now pops loudly in milk which never happened before. Waste of money. Didn't they learn their lesson the last time? Won't be buying again.

Changed Again
Recipe has changed once again. Don't mess with perfection. Not as puffy and light as it use to be. Flavor is off as well. Texture is different.

I will when they make it the old way.
This was the best cereal back in the 1970s, but they changed the recipe. They need to go back to where it was in the 70s. It was sweet as honeycomb and it tasted real nice and crispy not hard. It had the actual honey taste go back to what it used to be and I'll buy it. I had to stop buying it because it doesn't taste the same. Stop changing the recipe when it was already good.

Gross
I bought a box for the first time in a while and it is totally changed. Turns mushy immediately and has a weird taste…more like some gross sugar substitute instead of honey. Terrible aftertaste. What is going on??

Tastes Like The Recipe Was Changed AGAIN
Once again, honeycomb tastes different. It's not as crispy. It tastes grainy and the flavor is not as good as it used to be. I will not be purchasing again.

Disappointed
I have been buying honeycomb cereal for years and my last 2 purchases have no flavor at all. There's no honey taste at all, was wondering if you changed the recipe recently. My son has also stated that the taste and texture has changed, I miss the original honeycomb.

What is wrong; i have been a regular fan of Honeycomb since
I reported the issue whit the change in Honeycombs when it started getting slimy in milk. It was changed back. Now it tastes like cardboard and it's crumbly when eatten. I thought i had gotten an out of date box so I purchased from different store. Same thing. It tastes like cardboard. What happened????

Why did you change the flavor
This once was my favorite childhood cereal, I remember waking up Saturday Morning and grabbing me a bowl of Honeycombs while watching Saturday Morning cartoons. One of my best childhood memories… but now that has changed…. The flavor is bland, there is no sweetness, the texture taste grainy… now the flavor will always be just a memory… won't buy this again 😔

Strawberry!!!
Please bring back strawberry honeycomb! My husband and I love it and look for it all the time at the store and online. The original is good, but the strawberry is the best! Please bring it back

I love Honey-Comb
I have enjoyed Honey-Comb cereal since a child. I would like to know if Post consumer Brands intends to ever bring back the Strawberry flavored Honeycomb, it was my all-time favorite, and I miss it!
