Can you taste the iron in Wheat Chex?

Asked by rpm_pseud0name (8208points) November 29th, 2011

Years ago I noticed a strange taste in Wheat Chex. The only thing that I could think of to call the taste was, ‘of iron.’ Recently (for some reason I never checked back then) I looked at the nutrition information while snacking on it. Oddly enough, it has 80% daily value of iron in one serving (1cup). That is a lot. no? Though, I can taste the iron in a single square.

It is the holidays & so I presume some of you Jellies have Wheat Chex on hand for making Chex Mix. Would you mind eating a couple squares (from the box, not after being seasoned & baked) & telling me if you taste something that could only be described as, ‘iron’? Thanks.
