Very cereally
I think this crust to filling ratio is too high for this one. I would put more filling/berries on the top because all you taste is the cereal crust. If they have a lighter graham cracker version I would substitute this as well.

good for the nutritionals
Overall I would say it was pretty good. I think parts of my crust were too thick and you could really taste the cereal, it was kind of like a breakfast dish. I enjoyed it overall. I also used FF cream cheese since that is what I had on hand.
