Diane says
I saw the pumpkin cheerios at aldi this week. Let me know what your family thinks of it.
Brigette Shevy says
My family gave them a thumbs-up! I can’t have them (so I can’t vouch for them personally) because they aren’t gluten-free (the Cheerios brand of pumpkin spice cereal is gf, so it’s possible I’ll splurge on that for myself this season ;)). They look good, though – a fun seasonal buy!
