(Solved) What Happened to This Cereal?

Edit, this has now been solved: it's Uncle Tobys "Squarz". My memory was wrong: it was date syrup, not maple syrup.

Original post:
About 6 months ago, I found a heavily discounted cereal (I'm sure it was Uncle Tobys) in Woolworths. The normal price was extremely expensive, about $12, but it was down to $2 or $3, maybe because it was being discontinued. There was only one box left. It might have originally been in the health food section, but I picked it up in the clearance section.

It was fairly plain and was marketed as being very healthy, with only 4 ingredients (I think: oats, maple syrup, banana, and something else). It definitely had maple syrup and banana in it, and almost certainly oats. And I definitely remember it had only 4 ingredients. I think the cereal had some kind of distinct shape, like a spheroid shape or diamond, with air inside, or a square shape with a kind of small lattice. It was not those oat flakes or oat crisps that Uncle Toybs sells. It's also not that Freedom Maple crunch cereal. It definitely had banana as an ingredient.

I ate it with soy milk and fresh banana, and it was pretty much the tastiest cereal I've ever had.

I haven't seen it since, and no amount of googling has helped me identify it.

    Weevils?

  • Ohhh I know the one you are talking about! I bought it for half price, me personally I thought it tasted horrible. Not too horrible in itself but definitely not worth the price I paid. I wish I had the box to tell you the name!

    Uncle Toby's squarz?

    • Yep, was going to say the same. Also, username checks out.

      It definitely had banana as an ingredient

    • Oh yeah, that's it! So, it's not maple syrup, it's date syrup.

  • What happened to Kellogg's Komplete?

  • I was really happy when I found honey weets the other day. It's now at woolies under the name Crunchy Honey Poppas.

    Sadly I have to shop at woollies to get it AND support their house brand. altho the original was made by a cult too.
