cereal freakoutWhile I was in the grocery store yesterday picking up a few things, I was chatting on the phone with a friend. I was in the cereal aisle talking about our favourite cereals. He mentioned his favourite cereal is Count Chocula. I mentioned that it’s too bad he can’t try my favourite cereal, Cocoa Krispies. It’s a USA only cereal you see. We used to have it in Canada when I was a kid, which is how I learned how great it is. Then I got a box of it in Pittsburgh back in 2001, and then an online friend sent me a box last Fall.

While I was expressing my disappointment I literally glanced at the Rice Krispies in front of me and noticed the word Cocoa on the box. I had to stop and look again for a couple of seconds to really make sure I was seeing what I thought I was seeing. Oh my god! They’re back! They’re called Rice Krispies Cocoa. I had a bowl this morning. So freakin good. I’m so glad it’s back, and I hope it’s not temporary this time. I could live on the stuff! Maybe I should stockpile it just incase it disappears again… although at $4.99 a box, that could be pricey.
