  1. Is apple cinnamon oat cereal found on the dry cereal isle? I’ve never seen any. Can you say what brand it is?

  2. Yes – sorry – we usually use the Cheerios Apple, Cinnamon cereal. Does that help?

  3. Can you be more specific about the content of your article? After reading it, I still have some doubts. Hope you can help me.
