2 Fan-Favorite Cheerios Flavors Discontinued by General Mills
Two flavors and one size option of Cheerios products are leaving store shelves
General Mills confirmed the news in a statement this week, but said there is a possibility for flavors to return
'We continue to listen to our fans as we evolve our offerings," the company saidThree Cheerios products will no longer be available to customers, General Mills reportedly confirmed this week.
On Wednesday, June 18, ABC News shared the following statement from the food processing company: "The Honey Nut Cheerios Medley Crunch Cereal and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheerios Cereal have been discontinued and are no longer available.'
General Mills did not specify in their email to the news outlet what the exact reason behind the discontinuation was.
However, the brand said, it "could be for a variety of reasons, ranging from insufficient consumer demand to ingredients no longer available or other supply chain constraints, whereby it's just no longer feasible for us to offer the product with the high quality and competitive pricing that consumers know and expect."
The third product is not a flavor, but a size. Included in the discontinued items are the 18-oz. packages of Honey Nut Cheerios Minis, though they can still be purchased in 10.8-oz. boxes.
Reps for General Mills did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for comment.
According to the General Mills website, both the Honey Nut Cheerios Medley Crunch and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheerios ranked high among consumer favorites — with one having just under 200 5-star reviews, and the other have nearly 50 5-star reviews.
The Honey Nut Cheerios Medley Crunch Heart Healthy Cereal is described as "a delicious remix of Honey Nut Cheerios cereal with honey nut Os, crispy flakes and crunchy clusters."
They were also made of whole grain cereal low in sodium with the taste of real honey and almond flavor.
As for the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheerios, the family-sized box contained sweetened whole grain Os with real cocoa and peanut butter.
Fans of the flavors already appeared heartbroken in the reviews.
'NOOOOOO,' one person titled their review from this week. They added, 'Where is my favorite cereal? Not in my cereal bowl. Haven't been able to find it in months. Where are you Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cherrios?'
A representative for General Mills did tell ABC News that although the options were leaving, the brand has been known to bring favorites back.
