It's bland as hell but I can't get enough of it.

If it's oats and sesame oil, I'd call that flavor "oaty" and I also really enjoy it. But shredded wheat lacks that flavor for me, so IDK.
But as a recommendation check out barley tea.

"Farinaceous" is the term used in mycology for mushrooms that have a grain-like smell/taste.

Oats and shredded wheat both taste like whole grains because that’s what they are.
Sounds like you’re craving carbohydrates.

Idk I also love anything cooked with sesame oil as well for that particular flavor
-
If you know your way around the kitchen, maybe whip up some brown rice crackers with sesame oil.

Dude, I get you so much, I love just munching on tortillas and spaghetti without the sauce 💀

My grandma used to say "flour makes you stupid!"
We both loved our wheat products like bread rolls and baguettes without anything on them.
Pasta and tortillas without sauce are great as well!
Miss you, Babushka.

All cereal grains are varieties of grass. So maybe it's grass flavor.

Oh yeah Mr. Smartypants then why does my morning bowl of grass clippings and milk taste nothing like frosted mini wheats?!?!
-
The grass clippings should be from sugar cane.

Did you rinse them first?

Quaker crack.

That reminds me of when I was addicted to those Walker shortbread cookies sold at Starbucks (specifically those ones!) and bought 4 packs, and the cashier looked at them and said, "yo these are like crack"
That same subtle flavor I'll literally destroy a planet for.

I would call it grain flavor, they have a slight natural sweetness and mild, almost creamy flavor I wouldn't call it bland exactly, but subtle, yeah.

Maybe it’s a primal thing (or, well, a “discovery of agriculture” thing). I love Triscuits. Plain.
For those of you who don’t know what Triscuits are, they’re simply wheat crackers. The ingredients are whole-grain wheat, canola oil, and salt. That’s it.

Possibly malt.
