What Do Toasted Coconut Cheerios Taste Like?

According to the official Cheerios website, “Toasted Coconut Cheerios bring the sweet, exotic taste of a relaxing tropical getaway right to your breakfast bowl.” Yes, please! The latest Limited Edition flavor is inspired by—what else—the delicious nutty flavor of coconut.
