Cinnamon Toast Crunch Confirms the Cereal Squares are Eating Each Other
Help uncover "The Last Square" for a chance to win a year's supply of Cinnamon Toast Crunch MINNEAPOLIS, June 25, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cinnamon Toast Crunch has always embraced the absurd. But what's happening right now is more than just absurd — it's unheard of. In an unexpected turn of breakfast events, the crunchy, swirly Cinnadust-covered cereal squares are eating each other. Notorious for their rowdy, chomp-happy behavior, the squares are spiraling further out of control than ever before, and we're still uncovering how far it's gone. Turns out, when something tastes this good, it can lead to… unexpected consequences. There have been reports of mysterious occurrences: muffled crunching from behind pantry doors, swirls of loose Cinnadust, and sealed boxes with just one lone square inside. The chaos escalated when content creators began receiving sealed boxes containing a single surviving cereal square and cryptic clues, fueling speculation and playful sleuthing across social media. After launching an internal search, we traced the source to a limited run where some Cinna-Squares seem to have snacked their way through the rest of the box. We're calling each of these lone pieces of cereal "The Last Square." "Look, we're surprised but not sure the cereal is really to blame here," shares Brandon Tyrrell, Sr. Marketing Communications Manager at General Mills. "Still, this bizarre (but undeniably delicious) development has forced us to act. We're running out of time — and cereal — and we need your help." Cinnamon Toast Crunch is asking our biggest fans to visit to join the search to find these rogue boxes. You can opt in for a chance to get your own box and if yours contains "The Last Square," you'll be eligible to redeem it for a full year's supply of Cinnamon Toast Crunch to help us contain the cinnamon-y chaos. Check out @cinnamontoastcrunch on social for updates, theories and exactly how the squares lost control. And in the meantime, keep an ear out. If you hear crunching… it might already be too late.

General Mills forecasts weak annual profit as economic uncertainty weighs
In this Aug 8, 2018, file photo boxes of General Mills Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal sit on display in a market in Pittsburgh. (AP Photo/Gene J. Puskar, File) General Mills forecast annual profit below expectations on Wednesday, as weak demand for its refrigerated baked goods and snacks in the U.S. in a tariff-driven, uncertain macroeconomic background weighed on the Pillsbury-owner. Economic uncertainty arising from U.S. President Donald Trump's shifting tariff policies has weighed on consumer spending in the U.S., challenging General Mills' efforts to drum up sales. The company has been trying to boost demand through new products, such as a fresh version of its Blue Buffalo pet food for dogs, but investments in marketing and acquisitions are seen taking a toll on its margins. 'We expect the operating environment will remain volatile, with consumers pressured by widespread uncertainty from tariffs, global conflicts, and changing regulations,' CEO Jeff Harmening said. 'Amid this uncertainty, we expect consumers to remain cautious and continue seeking value.' Shares of the Cheerios-maker were down nearly two per cent before the bell. The company expects full-year adjusted profit to be in the range of down ten per cent to down 15 per cent, compared to analysts' estimates of a 4.8 per cent decline, as per data compiled by LSEG. For the fourth quarter ended May 25, General Mills posted sales of US$4.56 billion, narrowly missing analysts' estimates of US$4.59 billion, as per data compiled by LSEG. Net sales at its North America retail segment, a major revenue contributor, were down ten per cent, offsetting gains from a 12 per cent rise in General Mills' pet segment sales in the region. The two segments had recorded declines of seven and eight per cent, respectively, a year ago. The company, however, posted an adjusted profit of 74 cents per share for the reported quarter, above analysts' estimate of 71 cents per share. --- Reporting by Neil J Kanatt in Bengaluru; Editing by Leroy Leo
