Odd Tastes Just Won't Do Anymore

I'm a big fan of cereal. So when I had a craving for something crunchy, I ran across the street to the Jewel. After scanning the cereal aisle for about 15 minutes, I settled on Fiber One Caramel Delight and Crunchy Oh's. Having just sampled both, I can honestly say each one is quite disgusting. They both have a distinct artifical taste. So now I'm both hungry and perplexed. I have a feeling my taste in cereal has changed dramatically while living in Europe. Those odd and unnatural tastes just won't do anymore.
