As anyone seen this cereal for sale?

My local tesco isn't stocking this despite there currently being a television advertising campaign for it.

I'm not going to go out of my way to get it. I just think they're shooting themselves in the foot
by not ensuring it's available in a major supermarket.
 
The power of advertising ....

Is it possible that the ads were on UK TV? I think I saw it on ITV - they usually get the latest products long before we do. It'll probably be in the supermarkets here within the next few weeks.

If you Google it on google.ie - it can't find any references, but Google it on google.co.uk and you get mad stuff like this!
 
Bought it in Dunnes last weekend, they even had an offer - buy one and get one free.

I wouldn't buy it again - comparable to Weetabix in texture and thats all - I don't know how to explain this, it just feels too heavy to swallow!
 
It was on tv last night during the RTE1 9pm news ad break, I was paying attention to the channel to make sure it wasn't just appearing on UK channels.

Does it taste anything like porridge? I would expect it to be heavy.
