Kellogg's Chocolate Corn Flakes are 'discontinued'
A spokesperson for Kellogg's told Newsquest: "We love that Kellogg's fans are so passionate about their favourite cereals and we're proud to be a part of millions of people's breakfasts each morning in the UK.
"We can never say never, but while there are no current plans to bring back Chocolate Corn Flakes.
"We do have lots of other exciting new products out now, like Kellogg's Oaties and Bluey Multigrain cereal, with more coming next year for cereal lovers to try."
Some cereal fans had already noticed the product, which first appeared in 2013, disappearing from shelves.
One said on X, (formerly Twitter): "Did @KelloggsUKI discontinue chocolate cornflakes again?"
Discontinued UK Sweets and Chocolates
The news regarding the Chocolate Corn Flakes comes following a mass recall of the product last year.
The cereal giant recalled its Kellogg's Corn Flakes Chocolate Flavour because it may contain small hard lumps of food, which are unsafe to eat.
It is not the only product 'discontinued' by Kellogg's in recent times.
Last year it revealed it had discontinued Coco Pops Rocks, despite some shoppers labelling it the "best cereal ever made".
It also axed Crunchy Nut and Caramel Bites from its range.
Fans were devastated, with one saying: on X: "@KelloggsUKI what happened to the Kellogg's crunchy nut with caramel bites!?!
"They were my favourite cereal been looking for them for ever I miss them my son misses them!!

Morrison offers cheapest grocery basket in UK beating Tesco, Sainsbury's and Asda
Thanks to eight promotions, Morrisons has now become the cheapest supermarket. Everyone has their go-to supermarket that they frequently pick over other stores. While we may dip our toe into other shops when in close proximity, there is normally one that we value over others for its prices, range of products, or quality of food. However, for those who want to get the most amount of products for your money, it seems like there is a new frontrunner. Morrisons has now claimed the title of the UK's cheapest supermarket basket. Using a range of discounts and promotions, Morrisons was able to outperform its rivals Tesco, Asda and Sainsbury's to claim the top spot. In a comparison from Grocer 33, which does weekly price comparisons and mystery shopping surveys, Morrisons came out with the lowest overall basket cost from the five stores analysed. With a total price of £72.39, Morrisons was able to take the title due to having eight deep promotions on key branded items, reports the Express. This includes promotions on Birds Eye chicken pies and This plant-based sausages. The reductions in price, which were part of a wider group of 16 promotions, helped the supermarket cut 9.8 per cent off its overall base prices. In terms of the supermarket price wars, Morrisons' recent win marks a notable shift, as it usually lags behind rivals Tesco and Asda when it comes to competitive pricing. However, by combining price reductions and multibuy offers, Morrisons was able to snag the win, leaving Asda in second place. The rival supermarket's total basket was only 30p more at a price of £72.69. Overall, Asda had more exclusively cheaper items in comparison to its competitors, with 13 of its products topping the affordability chart. Some of the items included dauphinoise potatoes, Kellogg's Coco Pops cereal bars and Absolut & Sprite RTD can. However, when looking at the multibuy savings, Morrison was 6.4 per cent better than Asda. This shows how important strategic promotional pricing can be to overall savings. At 4.7 per cent more expensive than Morrisons, Sainsburys came in third place with a basket price of £75.96. While the retailer lacked the volume of deals offered by the other two supermarkets, they did offer the best price on muffins and Muller Rice. Tesco was not far behind with a basket cost of £76.66. This basket price was helped by the supermarket's Clubcard Prices, which reduced the price of select items such as Oreo Ice Cream Mini Sandwiches and Schar gluten-free loaf. However, this still didn't make as big of an impact as its rivals. Unsurprisingly, Waitrose had the most expensive basket of the five stores, with a total cost of £82.79 - £10 more expensive than Morrisons. However, if anyone was looking for Marigold gloves or Alpro coconut milk, Waitrose offered the best prices. According to data from the Office of National Statistics, chocolate prices have been seen to shoot up this year, with an increase of 17.7 per cent this year up to May. One of the steepest hikes in price was on Cabury's drinking chocolate - up by 14 per cent. However, chocolate isn't the only product to see significant rises, as sausages have also experienced a similar price hike. On the flip side, 17 products selected for the Grocer 33 basket were surprisingly cheaper than this time last year. For example, Nivea moisturiser fell by 11 per cent, while Dauphinoise potatoes dropped by 13 per cent. To see the full analysis from Grocer 33, click HERE.

Kellanova begin production of All-Bran Fibre Plus at Wrexham
All-Bran has been produced at Wrexham since the factory first opened in 1978. The much-loved cereal will now be made using the latest technology which reduces production time, reducing the energy required to make the fibre-rich shreds. New All-Bran Fibre Plus is being made following enhancements to the production line at Wrexham, which is now powered by renewable electricity. It will deliver the same great taste with a lighter, crunchier texture and fewer breakages leading to less dust at the bottom of the pack. The new branding highlights the important role All-Bran can play in helping consumers achieve their recommended daily fibre intake. The move is part of a £75m investment in the factory, announced last October. As well as improvements on the All-Bran production line, two new advanced lines will be installed in the coming months to support the transition of other iconic Kellogg's cereals, including Corn Flakes and Crunchy Nut, to Wrexham. New-look All-Bran Fibre Plus is made using advanced technology for faster, more sustainable production by reducing energy use. (Image: City Press) An additional 130 jobs are also being created as a result of the investment, which will see cereal production at Wrexham more than double to around 1.5 million boxes a day. Kellanova's UK managing director, Chris Silcock, said: 'It's great to see new All-Bran Fibre Plus running off the production lines at Wrexham, marking a major milestone in our ongoing investment at the site. 'Over the next 18 months, more of our iconic brands will move production to Wrexham, and it'll be great to see all our major cereals produced more efficiently and sustainably using the latest technology.' MORE NEWS: MP for Wrexham, Andrew Ranger said: 'Kellanova has been an important part of Wrexham for over 40 years and I welcome the increased investment in the Wrexham plant and the job opportunities this brings. "On my recent visit to the factory, I learned about the important steps the company is making to ensure that production is faster and sustainable as well as the planned expansion of their lines and production here. "This is vital for economic growth and further demonstrates the confidence companies have in investing in Wrexham.'
