LUCKY CHARMS S’MORES

Today we are going to talk about cereals. As we know, America is very creative with their flavours and today we are going to look at another unique one that was released onto the market at the end of last year.

In November 2002, it was announced that Lucky Charms was releasing a new flavour – welcoming s’mores to the morning. Lucky Charms are famous for their cereal and iconic marshmallow shapes, well this one still has these but it also includes graham squares and chocolate cereal.

The cereal was released into the grocery store in January of 2023 and was a spin on the campfire tradition. The cereal had 140 calories per portion which is a cup. It has a lot of positive reviews online stating that they are sugary but make a strong impression.
