Cinnamon Toast Crunch launches new flavor
Published: Updated:
But some loyal fans have shown no interest in purchasing the limited-time cereal and are questioning why the 'disgusting' product exists. 'I don't think I could do this one,' a fan admitted on an Instagram post. 'They doing too much ewww not spending a penny on this,' another person commented on a video.
A few social media users admitted they tried the cereal and it did not meet their expectations. 'That bacon burned absolutely horribly because it's literally covered in sugar,' a commenter wrote.
Other fans were furious - not because of the cereal brand's newest product - but because it was sold out, making them claim 'influencers got their hands on them' early. General Mills was inspired to collaborate with Hormel Foods after the company received positive reviews for its limited-time Cinnamon Toast Crunch flavored bacon last year.
Both companies had the same goal with this cereal: Rewrite the rules of breakfast. 'Bringing these two iconic breakfast staples and irresistible flavors together gives our fans even more reason why they Must Cinnadust,' said Brandon Tyrrell, senior marketing manager at General Mills.
'After seeing the fan response to last year's collaboration, we knew we had to bring these two breakfast icons back together,' said Aly Sill, senior brand manager at Hormel Foods. 'We're shaking up the way bacon fits into daily routines, and we can't wait for consumers to experience it.'
While the hate was intense on social media, several commenters also enjoyed it, and food blogger Snackolator enjoyed its subtle flavor and 'super smoky' smell. 'Wow these are so delicious I bet my kids would be all over it,' an Instagram user wrote. 'I'm not sure! But I'll always try one thing once!,' another fan responded.
General Mills has a history of surprising fans with unexpected collaborations. Social media users had mixed opinions after Jason and Travis Kelce teamed up with the company to release a new limited-time cereal.
The cereal, a combination of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Lucky Charms and Reese's Puffs, was described as a 'crime against nature' by one X user. Not only is the company known for its unique partnerships, but it also made headlines for quietly discontinuing Cheerios products .

Pregnant influencer accuses boyfriend of cheating on her with OVER 25 women
A pregnant fitness influencer has gone viral on social media for accusing her boyfriend of serial cheating. Sadia Yansaneh took to Instagram last week and alleged that Jordan Wyn, the father of her expectant child, cheated on her with at least 25 women. At 37 weeks pregnant with their first child, she spelled out the details of the bleak situation. 'I just recently found out that the father of my child has been cheating on me with multiple women UNPROTECTED putting myself and my baby at risk,' Yansaneh wrote on July 9. She added, 'I have ONE month left of my pregnancy. Two incidents in the last 5 days. 25+ women.' Last Wednesday the North Carolina resident reposted a pregnancy announcement photo with her now-ex-boyfriend, with a red line down the middle, indicating their breakup. The former couple wrapped their arms around each other and smiled while holding a sonogram. Accompanying the picture was a long, impassioned caption that began, 'And sometimes you just get cheated on WHILE PREGNANT. Never in 1 million years would I think that I would be making a post like this but this has been my new reality.' The mom-to-be discovered her then-boyfriend's infidelity when various women reached out to her recounting their hookups with him. She acknowledged the women in the caption, adding, 'Thank you to the women who have reached out to me letting me know of this sick behavior. I'm truly so grateful for protection and divine timing ❤️.' The influencer referred to her misfortune as 'an unfair hand' and said she was sharing her experience to reach other women. 'I'm making this post for all my women out there who can do every single thing right with their partner and for their baby's best interest and still get an unfair hand,' said the online personality, who currently has 248,000 Instagram followers. Sadia said, 'There were zero signs and I did not know he was living a double life.' Amid the turmoil, she is determined to stay strong for her unborn child: 'While it would be so easy to break down right now…my baby needs me more than ever and I'm actually grateful that this information was presented to me so that I can learn from this.' The mom-to-be discovered her then-boyfriend's infidelity when various women reached out to her recounting their hookups with him. So far, Sadia says she has not received an apology from Jordan, who has reportedly disabled his social media accounts So far, Sadia says she has not received an apology from Jordan, who has reportedly disabled his social media In a follow-up Instagram post Yansaneh shared an screenshot of a message from an unnamed contact that seemed to be Wyn. It read: 'Yo I know you hurt but trying to air me out to instagram is so immature.' She also shared messages from the people claiming to have had sex with her ex-boyfriend as she captioned, 'This is what the lack of accountability and an apology looks like. Literally sickening. The audacity to insult someone when you've been doing things in the dark is crazy.' Three days after her initial post, she gave an update: 'It's been 72 hours since everything came to light, and not once have I received an apology or even a simple 'I'm sorry.' Just silence, deflection, and a complete lack of remorse.' Despite the heartbreak, the expectant mom is focused on her future as a single mom, vowing she 'will never get back with him.'

Her secret has been not bowing to any pressure or beauty standard put upon actresses in Hollywood and instead feeling confident and comfortable in her own skin.' Jennifer — who starred in the original 1997 I Know What You Did Last Summer slasher and reprises her role in the 2025 sequel — left many people swooning as she flaunted her physique in a fitted black dress at the Los Angeles event on Monday. Social media users praised her body in droves, calling her a 'real woman' and a 'breath of fresh air.' 'Jennifer Love Hewitt looking absolutely beautiful,' one wrote on X. 'She looks good. I like the fact she didn't mess up her face with fillers and plastic surgery,' another chimed in. 'I prefer this look vs the plastic look of others.'

In 2014, Jennifer spoke about not being in a rush to her baby weight or go on a diet, four months after she gave birth to daughter Autumn, noting she wanted her little girl to learn how to have a good self-esteem. 'If your priorities are right, the baby's most important. You have to eat to feed your baby. And I have a girl so I want her to see some day why her mom has good self-esteem and good body issues, she told E. The star shares Autumn, 11, and sons Atticus, 10, and Aidan, three, with husband Brian Hallisay, 46. In 2023, the beauty shared one of her favorite 'workouts' was the Emsculpt Neo, a non-invasive body contouring treatment that simultaneously builds muscle and reduces fat via High-Intensity Focused Electromagnetic energy and Radiofrequency energy. She posted a black and white snap of the machine on what looked to be her abdomen, writing, 'Getting in one of my favorite 'workouts' before Thanksgiving! This mom of three is a huge fan of #EmsculptNeo for strengthening my core and helping to heal my diastasis recti.' Earlier in January, the star shared a handful of makeup-free selfies and a candid reflection about the aging process as she celebrated her 46th birthday. The Party of Five star shared that she has 'experienced and seen how the world can be cruel to women as they age' in the caption of her Instagram post. The actress started out the post writing that one of her 'besties' hates filters. '46 years old. No makeup and no filter,' she wrote. The Ghost Whisperer star later touched on the subject of aging and how cruel the world can be to women as they grow older. 'I have experienced and seen how the world can be cruel to women as they age and yet seen the women I admire become happier, sexier and more powerful with every added number.' 'I am so deeply grateful for this life. I love all who choose to do it by my side and I am ready to give love today to the younger me and the older me because they are my ride or die's. Sending love to all and cheers to 46!' Jennifer has touched on aging before and expressed how hurt she was when she was branded unrecognizable in late 2023 when she debuted a bob hairstyle. 'Aging in Hollywood is really hard. It's really hard because you can't do anything right,' Hewitt said on the Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum podcast in December 2023. She went on to explain why the negative comments bothered her so much, noting that the 'only reason those people bother me is because I'm a mother of a girl.' 'It's dangerous what we put on people. It's dangerous, I think, to say to women, "You can't look like you're not 22 to me anymore because I don't know how to take that,"' she said. In 2010, the star advised young girls to 'love the way you look.' 'When I meet young girls, I'm always like, "Just do me one favor." Love what you look like right now – and remember I said it 10 years from now because it's the greatest gift I can give,' she told People. As for her skincare routine, the actress previously told Good Housekeeping that she likes to 'keep it simple' and use an ice roller. 'I don't use a lot of stuff. I really enjoy ice rollers. I'm really into those right now, and my kids are into those.' Fans can catch Jennifer in the newest I Know What You Did Last Summer film at its premiere on July 14th.
