Though Starbucks’ infamous Unicorn Frappuccino is long dead and gone—presumably with technicolor Snozzberries growing from its fertilized burial grounds—the Jazzy-Solo-Cup-colored liquid’s namesake cryptid is still grabbing the cereal industry by the horn.
Just weeks after Kellogg’s confirmed the in-store release day (March 5th) of its Unicorn Cereal (formerly known as Unicorn Froot Loops when released abroad), and just days after Lucky Charms announced the planned obsolescence of its hourglass marshmallow, Instagram user @sydnee_alexandra stumbled upon this real-life unicorn at an HEB store: a box of unannounced Lucky Charms with Magical Unicorn Marshmallows!
Given that there’s still an hourglass on the box, and that these intricate equine marbits likely have more artifical color than a Dorito at a tanning salon, these Unicorns likely aren’t a permanent replacement.
But I sure hope they taste like cotton candy.
I thought the existence of “classic” Trix was confirmation that they decided to nix the idea of dropping of fun artificial colors.
“Natural” Trix must have gone very badly.
I should read to the end, before opening photoshop to paint a red circle around the hourglas so that i can point out it’s still on the box… -.-
But hey, at least we both saw it xD
Not sure if i already said it, while the whole Unicorn Froot Loops (EU Version) hype was going on, but i rather have all the foxes and owls back, that were “hot” for a while… but then again… unicorn marbits fit way better to Lucky Charms than magical foxes 😉
Still the only Unicorn Cereal i’m curios about is the US version of the Unicorn Froot Loops coming in march. But not because of the unicorn, but of the cupcake flavor xD
Cheers!
