    Hi guys,

    I'm really hoping someone can help me! While in France this summer I rediscovered a cereal that I used to eat all the time when I lived there. It's called Kelloggs Extra and its flakes of cereal with chunks of milk chocolate and its the best cereal in the entire world! I brought some back but now I'm running out and I can't find anything similar here. Has anyone spotted it (or something similar) in the Dublin/Kildare area? Failing that, I'll be in Northern Ireland soon so if its available up there I could get some. I've tried googling it but there isn't much info on it....
    Here's what it looks like:

    Thanks :)

    Hi did you get sorted? I'm just back from France and while I was there I was eating this cereal everyday. I went shopping for it here today and the closest I could get was crunchy nut chocolate. But it's not the same :-(

    Hi Mac72, welcome to Boards. Just a heads up - as a general rule we don't revive threads that are more than 6 months old. Since this is a tiny thread and the Snacks & Sweets forum is relatively quiet I'll leave it open.

    You could just add chocolate to a similar one, you can grate a bar with a cheese grater which is often cheaper than buying chocolate nibs/chips. And read the other ingredients, there is coconut in the first one linked.

    dunno if this is the crunch nut one you got

    There's a chocolate cereal in Marks & Spencers, don't know if its similar to what your looking for though as I've never had the Kelloggs extra, it's called triple chocolate crunch I think. It's delicious anyway so trying it won't be a chore!!! :-)

    Second this. It's amazing. Just dessert in a box basically. It would be fab over ice cream.
