One of the things I miss about being a kid in the ’90s (the best decade ever, to be clear) was all the fun novelty food products. Oatmeal Swirlers, Dunkaroos, Squeeze-Its… I could go on, but you get the picture. I’m 35 now, but I’m still drawn to products that remind me of my childhood, which is why Magic Fruity Pebbles are the number one item on my next shopping list.
- The milk changes color as you eat them! Inspired by Dino, the Flintstones’ family dinosaur, Magic Fruity Pebbles aren’t just hot pink in color like Dino himself, but they also somehow turn your cereal milk blue, which is pretty cool.
- It’s the same delicious Fruity Pebbles you love, just with a twist. “The Pebbles brand is always looking for new ways to spark imagination in kids and kids at heart,” said Amy Brothers, brand manager for Pebbles, in a press release. “We’re excited to put a magical twist on our classic vibrant colors while staying true to the delicious fruity taste that fans love.” I’m equally as excited, Amy!
- This is the perfect treat for National Cereal Day. If you weren’t aware that the holiday even existed or you weren’t aware of when it is, it’s March 7. Thankfully, Magic Fruity Pebbles will be sold in stores nationwide from mid-February, so you can stock up in time for a proper celebration.
- They’re only available for a limited time. It doesn’t seem like Magic Fruity Pebbles are going to be a permanent addition to the Post line of cereals, so you’ll have to get them while supplies last. While this is a novelty product at its finest and doesn’t offer any additional flavors compared to regular Fruity Pebbles, watching your cereal milk turn blue while you chow down is definitely a whole lot of fun. What’s not to love?
