Move over, unicorns! It’s time for mermaids to shine. General Mills is apparently releasing Mermaid Cereal (yes, that’s the name).
The cereal is “naturally fruit-flavored sweetened corn puffs with other natural flavors,” according to the sales sample packaging. It consists of light orange stars and teal mermaid tails or fish. Just from a glance, it looks like the cereal is similar to the non-marshmallow part of Lucky Charms, although these are fruity.
Even if you’re not a fan of cereal, the box itself is reason enough to grab one. It features a mermaid with purple hair and a teal tail, and the word “mermaid” is silver and glittery.
Mermaid Cereal has been in the works for quite a while. General Mills filed to trademark the name last summer and was issued this February. A couple sales samples began popping up on Instagram recently, but there’s no indication of when they will hit shelves.
If you’re as excited as we are to get your hands on a box (or 10) of Mermaid Cereal, check back, because we’ll update this post when we know more.
