or you could BUY a BAG of only marshmallows without jumping through weird hoops to appease the corporate marketing gods. This would be like Popeyes saying you could WIN a box of fried chicken skin and breading. In fact maybe twenty years ago I had a dream about being served a plate of that. I remember how round and mushy the substance on the plate was. I tried to eat it and it was disgusting. I never forgot. But the General Mills breakfast cereal company has helped me to remember it, thank you.
I can only assume the marshmallow box giveaway is a consequence of adding more and more new marshmallow types but forgetting to decrease the quantity of each produced.

here i am encouraged to TRAP the leprechaun and take this out on him. hey kids want to have a good time? eat a box of marshmallows and capture little creatures in the forest.
is there just no oversight at cereal companies? This is this is the worst disaster since Oops! Choco Donuts. As long as it only affects lame snacks pretending to be breakfast as an excuse and doesn’t mess with actual snacks

They admit this is a mistake but then claim the product is better like that anyway. I suppose they think I will say “I appreciate your honesty” but I don’t! I resent being sold defective merchandise. At full price, anyway. While this does have a yellow label that does not necessarily mean this is on sale.

Save TWO CENTS! It probably cost more to make the labels for this whole rack than somebody would “save” by making use of this offer.

As for the whoopsy cookies, if they ARE better with this mistake in place, they would be yet better if you used the mistake as a base point from which to make some informed decisions! This still needs to be inspected and approved by someone. The graphic design seems to imply that the fudge on these cookies was leaking down from the ceiling or a burst vat or something like that. How do I know this is PURE tasteless plastic keebler legally-allowed-to-be-called “fudge”? Quite honestly I am disgusted that the supermarket agreed to carry this product. Still this never would have happened if there was competent leadership at the Keebler tree. The fact of the matter is that Ernie the elf and

captain crunch are both senile white-haired old men, and one assumes lucky the leprechaun has a few centuries under his belt, in charge of food production operations that they no longer understand, and they expect to get by on their folksy charm and existing goodwill without offering anything in the way of apologies or reparations (general mills’ offer to let ME trap Lucky and issue frontier justice on my own notwithstanding). Gosh the keebler elves are using MAGIC, the FORBIDDEN arts to make these cookies and they can’t keep THAT under control. How long before it’s Oops! I summoned a werewolf army? How about this, you can sell whoopsy! over-fudged cookies and bejabbers! boxes of cereal without cereal so long as i can pay for them with my fiddlesticks! cancelled credit card

I like to conclude these entries with a final bit of text after the last picture.
