Reviews mention

  • High-protein 13g cereal
  • Nostalgic, playful packaging
  • Gluten-free, grain-free formulas
  • Fun, diverse flavors lineup
  • Artificial-tasting sweetener aftertaste
  • Gummy, teeth-sticking texture
  • Inconsistent chocolate flavor execution
  • Small, pricey box portions

Magic Spoon largely satisfies those seeking a healthier, high‑protein, low‑sugar riff on nostalgic cereals, according to reviews, but it is not universally loved. Reviewers praise its 13g protein per serving, gluten‑free/grain‑free formulas, fun flavors like Fruity, Cocoa, Cinnamon Roll, and Maple Waffle, and cheerful packaging; common complaints cite an artificial or stevia/monk‑fruit aftertaste, gummy texture that sticks to teeth, flavor inconsistency (especially some chocolate/peanut butter variants), limited satiety for some, and very small, pricey boxes.

  • Nope holy shit I’m not a picky eater but this did not taste good. It also sticks to your mouth and you need to brush your teeth

    Everything

  • The plain sugar flavor is my favorite for sure. I ordered this once and will not order again because it gets really stuck in my teeth.

    Stuck in teeth

  • I don't love the taste. I've tried all their flavors and it's not super great as much as I want to love it.

  • Initially tastes great but then the aftertaste is bleeghh

    Feedback

    Improved aftertaste

  • Though there are a ton of flavors, they’re all subpar. There’s too many healthy cereals out there now that give the protein content that I haven’t used this product in years. The packaging is incredibly alluring but the inside leaves more to be desired.

    Feedback

    The aftertaste and the way it sticks to your teeth is unpleasant.

  • the branding is incredible, and they have some really innovative flavors, however, it doesn't feel like there is enough cereal in each box to justify the price point. I also find the monkfruit flavor to be way too strong.

    flavor & amount of cereal per box

  • When we were doing keto I ordered a few to try. Overall it was just ok, and some a little bit eh with the taste. I love the packaging and the design on it though. That’s what really sold me.

  • $10 for a box of cereal... and you could taste the slight bitterness of artificial sweetener, and it got kind of hard when you chewed it. It tasted good but not $10 good.

  • I like the idea- They have fun flavors and offer a sweet protein packed option for breakfast.

    Feedback

    Too much artificial sweetener taste and a little pricey.

  • I like the chocolate cereal best. Great for Keto when you crave cereal. Very crunchy!! A little too sweet but I still buy it.

    Feedback

    Less sweetener

  • It's fine. I was really stoked when I first tried it out (got a range of flavors) as it has impressive nutritional stats for something that tastes like candy. Probably worth a try if you're looking for something to replace your Fruit Loops habit.

    Feedback

    Over time I realized the sweetness is too much for me. I don't have sweet cereal in general, so it wasn't a substitute I really needed. And how the pieces always stuck in my teeth was driving me crazy.

  • I think the idea and packaging are wonderful. I did not love the product.

    Feedback

    I don't think my cereal tasted great. I think it has a lot of hype but not sure the product delivers or matches the perception of it.

  • Flavors are good and fun, but the way they keep things low carb and still sweet is using a fiber called allulose. Many folks do not tolerate this well from a GI perspective, myself included. This cereal has me rushing to the bathroom.

  • I tried 3 flavors and found them all way too sweet with a chemical aftertaste that was very hard to get out of my mouth. This is very much a “love it or hate it” product.

  • I go back and forth whether or not this is worth $10 a box, and I usually go with yes. It’s worth it. Not all the time, but definitely something I consistory buy. All flavors are good. And great artwork.

    Feedback

    Just less expensive

  • Magic Spoon brings back the joy of sugary childhood cereals but with a grown-up, health-conscious twist. This high-protein, low-carb cereal promises the sweet, crunchy flavors you remember—like Fruity, Cocoa, and Peanut Butter—without the guilt. The first spoonful delivers that familiar rush of sweetness, though the texture is slightly denser than traditional cereals due to its protein base (made from milk and whey protein).
