News Breaking: Gen Mills introducing "Tiny Toast," its 1st new cereal in 15 years

With the millennial-led trend towards more healthy breakfasts, introduced just in time to help stem the cereal category market share decline.

Whaddya think? Does it sound tasty and healthy enough to give it a shot?

The breakfast world hasn't seen a new cereal from General Mills since the turn of the millennium, but that's about to change. The food company known for Cheerios and Cinnamon Toast Crunch has announced that consumers will be able to pour milk later this month over Tiny Toast, its first new cereal since 2001, when it debuted Harmony, a "nutritional women's cereal," Business Insider reports. Tiny Toast, which will come in blueberry and strawberry versions, is meant to tickle the taste buds of both kids and parents with its "all-family appeal" and boasts an ambitious goal: to taste and smell like actual fruit. "People told us that both varieties tasted real, and not fake like they typically associate with fruit-flavored cereals," a GM developer says in a blog post on the new breakfast dish, which is shaped, as suggested, like tiny pieces of toast, coated with bits of blueberry and strawberry. "We heard from several consumers that the Blueberry Tiny Toast tastes like a blueberry muffin, which is just awesome praise."

With its real fruit (as well as no high-fructose corn syrup or artificial flavors and colors), Tiny Toast was also designed to lure health-conscious noshers, CBS News reports. Business Insider says it arrives during a "tumultuous time" for cereal, noting sales have dipped in recent years and that millennials are defecting to more nutritious and convenient items. "We are seeing a lot of people make eggs in the morning, now that we're not so scared of cholesterol," an analyst tells CBS.

 

Hard pass.

 

Where did the text go? I can't see anything

 

This changes everything!

 

I don't eat cereal so fuck this thread and fuck you

 

I'll stick with the classics. Frosted Flakes, Count Chocula and Lucky Charms!

 

I'd like to butter your muffin.

 

I'm waiting my Super Scones cereal. And I ain't backing down.

 

ahh, you must be glomming free cheese at work since you can't afford the internet at home eh?

(and Howard says Fuck you!)

 

I'm partial to Merkinberry Crunch.

 

Stop the presses! New cereal???

Wow! What a scoop! (see what I did there???)

 

I'm sure it's still a bowl of processed flour and sugar

 

...and the name is horrible

 

When is Krispy Kreme cereal coming out anyway

 

I don't know what glomming means, and we don't have any cheese here. I wish we did.

Also, you know Howard?

 

Call it "Tiny Tim Toast" and I'm in!

 

My friend is going to make banana boats whilst camping

You "canoe" a banana, then you fill out with chocolate chips, marshmallows, fruit, whatever

Then you wrap it in foil and throw it in the fire

This sounds very exciting

 

I hate watching people eat cereal.

 

If only Eric The Midget was alive to see this.

 

It really is disgusting.
