To me, this is the epitome of Frankenfood . . . engineered, unnatural, unnecessary and a bit scary. I think I understand about wanting to have something comforting that fits into a more disciplined lifestyle (e.g. you're paleo and you're having a craving). Personally, even in my cloudiest moments, I've never had a craving for Count Chocula or a facsimile.
But I also like to think that if I were on any sort of eating regimen, I could easily avoid foods like these and still stay on my path. Whole foods are not as easy to come by as they once were -- and there's usually nothing sexy about the way they're marketed -- but at the end of the day, they endure and they rarely let you down. They require some amount of skill, effort, time and kitchen infrastructure that, I guess, not everyone has.
