Hi Strands fans. Is this one U.S.-centric? Maybe, but perhaps cereal brands are an international language, as I had no trouble figuring out each one of the types without using any clues.
It helped, of course, that I found the spangram of CEREAL across the middle of the grid right away, neatly dividing the board into two halves.
I started on the bottom half first, finding FLAKE on the left with SMACK directly below it. I next saw PEBBLE in the bottom-right corner and then completed the section by connecting CHARM.
The top half was equally straightforward. I found CRUNCH in the top-right corner, followed by PUFF diagonally below it. CHEERIO was coiled around itself on the top two rows, and that just left LOOP to complete the puzzle.
