Anyone know if there's any knockoff brands of Trix that still have the old colors and flavors?

I'm not gonna get out of bed on a saturday morning to eat this lumpy bowl of vomit colored carrot juice junk.

On top of this, does anyone live in USA and can confirm if they have or haven't ruined Captain Crunch's "Oops all berries" yet?

Don't wanna buy that shit and be sent some brown cardboard rocks. Cereal is important in my life and I'm not in USA atm -.-

You know just because something's natural doesn't make it good for you, and vice versa with unnatural things.

Not that guy, and I don't give a shit about shitty cereal for trailer trash, but "food coloring" is a catch-all for literally anything that gives color to food

There is nothing inherent to the concept of food coloring that says it's safe, and many chemicals* in the past have been deemed unsafe and replaced with other, more safe chemicals*

Why do adults in America eat cereal?
In my country noone below the age of like maximum 15 years eats it. And even then it's in limited degree due to the high sugar count. How can you give that to your children? For BREAKFAST never the less?

Müsil and such however is eaten, but not this sugary colorful shit ID even K what it's supposed to be.
>>
>>7820508
Marketing. Kids really REALLY REALLY love eating the cereal from the mascot on the commercials between their show.

It's disgusting, but a big part of their advertisement happened over the television. Maybe interest in youth fitness along with concerns about rising childhood obesity, combined again with the cord-cutting trend, can set people back onto proper breakfast eating.

You know, like eating a poptart.
>>
>>7820539
Advertising isn't going away when cord cutting happens. The ads will invade what you watch on the internet, and I doubt whoever scripts adblock plus will beat out google when it comes down to it.

I understand that there's targeted advertisements on youtube, but I've had plenty of misdirected ads hit me for shit I'd never need or want, and none of them are children's cereal commercials.

adults in america eat cereal because we have fond memories of our youth. we didn't grow up underneath the boots of communism, poverty, pestilence, and disease.

Also Oops All Berries. And probably some Malt-o-Meal stuff. And Fruity Pebbles. There's lots of options.

My mom loved me enough to give me what I wanted, and what I wanted was cereal

Only faggot kids didn't want cereal, cereal often came with prizes and tasted like sugar. Sorry you were a faggot kid and probably had no designer clothes and ugly glasses, bitch faggot. No wonder you'r so bitter, you got bullied every day because of how your parents raised you.

If your mother didn't abuse you by forcing you to eat steak-ums drenched in cool whip non-dairy dessert topping while chain smoking menthols before passing out from cheap booze in front of the 50 inch TV she blew all the food money on so she could watch the real housewives of LA, you're an anti- vaxxer moonbat who hates science

Even the "healthy" cereal is far worse for you than just getting real food, like a banana or something.

trix were round for decades before they changed to the fruit shape.

they also instantly tasted shittier and more chemical when they went to the fruit shape.

where is the company from? why they allow to bring a shittier version on murica , and not on a 3er world country?

They fucked up Honey Nut Cheerios years ago.
The darn things used to have so much sweetness added that the honey O's used to glisten.

Now they look like dried pieces of oats with half the flavor it used to have.

Apple Jacks used to have so much sugar on it that it used to have frosted whiteness to it. Now it's no longer frosted in sugar .

The part the pisses me off is when I google "why do cereal have less sugar now" to see if other people have noticed I find ZERO results on it. Than as I type google asks me if I meant "Why do cereals have SO MUCH SUGAR" and a bunch of health conscious mom blog web pages pop up.
