Who the hell fucked with my Trix?
« on: January 08, 2007, 10:33:41 am »
They're playing games with my head over at general mills!

My delicious fruit shaped trix have now returned to thier previous shape (Round Puffs)

WTF?

And the box says "New Shape! Same Great Taste!" But it's not new, this is what Trix was shaped like when I was a kid!

I'm old

Has anything changed for you guys like this and just sort of made you feel "Bleh"?

Not really.

Bravery is better than a faint heart for a man seeking to put his nose out of doors. My fate and the number of my days has already been decided.

Not yet, but let me just say that Miami Vice was better as a TV series, Japan's take on Transformers endangers little children (Hey when the US made the first Transformers series they had the good mind to make the humans young adults except in the third season with Daniel... then it went crazy) and I remember Space Ghost before he had a talk show.

I saw what you did there.

Hey, Space Ghost Coast to Coast is epic! But yeah, I remember before he had a talk show.

Yeah.  Adding Jar Jar Binks to Star Wars makes me feel like their cereal is more so round shaped puffs.

They brought back old-school Trix?! Awesome!

Now I no longer have to lament every time I see that scene in Addams Family where Gomez eats spherically-shaped Trix.
Smile, you son of a bitch!

Could someone show us proof of this traversity? Cause frankly, I haven't been to a store yet to see the "new" shape.

Somewhere, a kid opened a new box this morning and probably thought, "WTF!? Is this Kix?"

Actually I'm not from Rand Mcnally. In fact, I don't even know where THAT is.

And about the showing thing, don't worry. I found the box cover on Wikipedia. It's colored Kix I tell ya! Or a fruity version of Coco Puffs.

That's fucked up. I feel the same way about the reverting to the round-puff style of Trix.

Leave our goddamned cereal alone dammit. Fruit shapes or NOTHING.
