Spooned & Spotted (Canada): Tim Hortons Timbits Cereal!

Canada Exclusive Tim Hortons Timbits Cereal

Ooh, this one hits me hard. Hard as a quarter-empty 50-pack of Timbits left behind at an executive meeting that was later scavenged and greedily gobbled by me like a feral Pac-Man.

As a lifelong Michigander, I’m no stranger to Tim Hortons. In fact, I have a nostalgic, pliable and doughy soft spot for the place, as it conjures fond memories: of my dad buying me chocolate chip muffins. Memories of my high school self bicycling out of school at lunchtime like a bat out of hell to make it to Timmy’s before they stopped making maple oatmeal. And of course, memories of my more recent self scavenging and gobbling Timbits like a feral Pac-Man.

Waka waka waka, and yada yada yada: the point is that Canada is getting exclusive Timbits Cereals to celebrate what may arguably be the northwest hemisphere’s most beloved doughnut holes.

A few things are still unclear about these Post-produced products. When will they come out? Will there be more flavors beyond Chocolate Glazed and Birthday Cake (I’m lookin’ at you, Apple Fritter)? And who will trebuchet 90kg of this stuff 300m over the MI–CA border for me?

No matter the answers, I can conclusively say that as a fan of both doughnuts and doughnut cereals, I’m excited to see if these boxed dozens can bring zen to my breakfast table.

  1. I just came across this on my facebook wall, I have googled the crap out of this cereal and no one site can say it’s true or a hoax. I did however find the soup was the real deal, however the list of stores it’s sold to, allows me to understand why I never saw it before, they only sell in select stores and I only ever go into one of them on a rare occasion out of the lot of stores they mentioned. Shoppers sells the soup, the other stores I never frequent I do wish they would sell to walmart, that store I am always in as are a ton of people in my town.

  2. Where did the source for this come from? I can’t find any material if this is a real thing, and I really want it to be a real thing.
