RXBar Fans, Check Out This RX Cereal – It Offers 12 Gram of Plant-Based Protein!
Inspired by RXBar’s top-selling protein bar flavours, you can now find RX Cereal. RXBar sent me the Chocolate Almond and Vanilla Almond flavours to try. There’s also a third Strawberry flavour available.
Each serving offers 11 to 12 grams of plant-based pea protein and is made with the simple, minimal ingredients you love about RXBARs. Keep reading to see if this cereal looks like the photo on the box, what the nutrition info is, and most importantly, if this cereal tastes as good as it looks.
While this isn’t available in Australia just yet, keep checking stockists like iHerb to find this new cereal.

What Are the Ingredients in Chocolate Almond RX Cereal?
As you’d expect with an RX product, there are minimal ingredients – and no B.S. The Chocolate Almond RX Cereal is made with brown rice, almonds, whole grain sorghum, coconut sugar, pea protein, honey, cocoa, chocolate, salt, natural flavors, and rosemary extract.
Note that while this cereal is dairy-free and egg-free made with plant-based pea protein, it’s not vegan since it’s made with honey.
What Are the Ingredients in Vanilla Almond RX Cereal?
With equally simple ingredients, this Vanilla Almond RX Cereal is made with brown rice, almonds, pumpkin seeds, whole grain sorghum, coconut sugar, pea protein, honey, salt, natural flavors, and rosemary extract.
How Does Chocolate Almond RX Cereal Taste?
Full of robust chocolatey flavor, this Chocolate Almond RX Cereal is perfectly sweet, and has a satisfying crispy-crunch. There are tons of sliced almonds mixed throughout the thick, textured flakes, and I was pleasantly surprised how much the cereal looked like the photo on the box. Even after soaking in soy milk for several minutes, the flakes didn’t lose their delightfully firm crunch.
How Does Vanilla Almond RX Cereal Taste?
This Vanilla Almond RX Cereal reminded me of Golden Grahams. Based on the cereal’s name I was expecting a strong vanilla flavor but I didn’t detect that. I could, however, absolutely taste the honey on these satisfyingly crunchy flakes. I loved how there were plenty of sliced almonds and pumpkin seeds mixed throughout my bowl.
This flavor was my favorite to snack on dry, but when paired with soy milk, I liked the Chocolate Almond flavour more. Both cereal flavors are delicious, and I’d recommend them 100 percent if you’re a cereal fan. You can find these on the RX website for $24 for three boxes, and it will roll out at select retailers nationwide.
