Making Mealtime Meaningful: Discover how we're giving back with the 12T Cares program →

If you are anything like us, you probably prefer the taste of fruity cereals. Sure, chocolate cereals are nice but there is something about the fruity cereals that make our hearts smile. Trix and Fruity Pebbles are among our favorites, that is for sure. Now, there is a brand new option available to those who like the fruity cereals that the grocery stores have to offer.

Have you ever heard of Jolly Ranchers cereal? Apparently, this is a real thing and not something that we just made up. The Jolly Ranchers will soon be available at a grocery store near you and we do not know how we feel about it. i_need_a_snack is the Instagram user who broke the news. This is a great handle and we wish that we had come up with it before they did.

This cereal is going to come in a wide variety of flavors. You can take home Green Apple, Blue Raspberry and/or Watermelon. The true Jolly Ranchers fans out there may just decide that they would like to take home all three! The idea of Jolly Ranchers excites us but there is something about pouring milk over them that seems a little bit disturbing.

I present @generalmills Jolly Rancher Cereal! • • Now after trying the Sour Patch Kids cereal and not enjoying that at all except for as a dry snack, I was worried that this jew Jolly Rancher Cereal would fall into that same category. But much to my surprise that was not the case! Now right off the bat after opening this cereal, you’re greeted with a sweet and flavorful smell just like an assortment bag of Jolly Ranchers! Now when it comes to taste I want to be 100% honest with you guy’s in saying that I feel like these guy’s are just a re branded Trix with a slighttt flavor difference. And I love Trix, so i’m in no way saying this cereal is bad it’s actually really good. It’s just I wish that we could have had that really spot on Jolly Rancher Taste. At the end of the day this is a great go to snack whether your eating it dry or in a bowl of milk! 6.5/10 🌟 • • Box artwork done by one of my favorite all time artist’s! @klyonsnatborn , Everyone go check him out!

We are not trying to judge anyone else, though. It can be hard to come across a cereal that seems like it was made with your personal needs in mind. We are sure that the Jolly Rancher fans out there are all rejoicing at the sheer prospect of taking this cereal home with them. The aforementioned Instagram account got the chance to try it out and they offered a review.

They were surprisingly complimentary about the cereal. In fact, it got a rating of 6.5. We are pleasantly surprised by this rating, to be perfectly honest. This is the sort of cereal that seems like it would be hit or miss. The taste is comparable to Trix, in case you were wondering if the cereal could be readily compared to anything already on the shelves.

Now that you have learned more about this cereal, it is time to spread the word to your friends and loved ones. The cereal is currently available at various locations but has not been earmarked for wide release just yet. That is all slated to change in March of 2020. The boxes are going to cost somewhere between $3.99 and $4.99, so be sure to have your money ready. In the meantime, pass the word along!
