    The hourglass, as in time is running out on having any more ‘good’ ideas re: ways to reinvent one of the nastiest cereals ever.

    I’m sorry, but Lucky Charms is gross. And the marshmallows are like eating that ‘popcorn’ used for packaging/shipping.

    Youppi, I despise the message you are pushing. Lucky Charms is one of the top 5 cereals of all time, and I still eat it to this day.

    Delicious.

    eick, you can’t be serious.

    I think the ‘purple horseshoes’ probably fell off the horses they first fed this garbage to.

    the cereal itself is boring-ly plain and lacking any sort of flavor. It’s like I shoved a handful of gravel in my mouth. If people had their way, they would get rid of them all together and just eat the marshmallows, or “marbits” as they are referred to (aka, not even good enought to call ‘marshmallow’).

    Anyway, a bowl of artificially colored marbits does not a delicious breakfast make. And remind me again how ‘me Red Balloon’ is a lucky charm?

    Apparently you haven’t seen the ads (or the boxes in stores!) for the new “Diamond” Shreddies. These Shreddies have a distinctive diamond shape, and are not, as scurrilous rumours would have it, regular Shreddies rotated 45 degrees.

    I always get dark green diarrhea after indulging in my son’s Lucky Charms. Nasty, indeed.

    the red balloon is a lucky charm because of that Nena song. Every body “99 ze luft balons german german german german!”

    Youppi is an idiot. Lucky Charms rocks. I used to love to eat them off Brittneys ass.

    How is this “big news”? does anyone remember years ago when Lucky Charms was almost entirely marshmallows? red hearts… orange stars… yellow moons… green clovers… blue diamonds… purple horse shoes… red ballons… and so on. Then they dumbed it down and dropped most of the charms and have been adding special little ones every few months off and on… so im sorry but I just cant get “excited” over yet another new charm… Besides… I hate Lucky Charms… The cerial part looks like dry cat food

    Youppi, So you don’t like lucky charms, that’s understandable, some people don’t, but just because you don’t like them doesn’t mean that the majority doesn’t. To each his own. Simply pass them up in the grocery aisle and don’t buy them, don’t try to speak for everyone when everyone doesn’t feel the same way that you do.

    Lucky Charms rock. I mean there are these little tiny pieces of marshmallow just stuck right in the cereal. So when the kids eat them they think, “Oooh this is candy, I’m having fun!”

    I ate Lucky Charms for breakfast as a child. I now have bowel cancer! I can’t stop pooping blood 🙁

    Youppi, you must be out of your damned mind. Lucky Charms is the best cereal EVAR. How can you think that they are anything but magically delicious? As for your guess about the purple horse shoes falling off the animal they first fed it too; that is simply preposterous. EVERYONE knows that ALL the Lucky Charms are hand made by Jesus Christ himself. The marshmallows in fact, (or “marbits” as you lovingly refer to them as) the very mana from heaven that sustained the Jews in the great Exodus in the Old Testament. Moses survived – no – thrived on these “marbits”. Charlton Heston played Moses in the movie version of the same story. Don’t you think that if it’s good enough for Charlton Heston, it’s good enough for you?

    USSRay, I would seek medical attention. Thick green excrement flying out of your man-love hole can be fatal. My advice is to eat more Lucky Charms until either you build up tolerance and the problem goes away, or you die of pooing toxic waste.

    Thanks Fark,
    I announce this “breaking” news to my kids and they tell me that the commericals for the new charm have been on TV for at least a month. Guess I’ll get another tie for Father’s day this year.

    hey its not cat food, it kibble as in kibble and marbits.

    have you ever wondered why cereal is considered so bad for our pets, but so “good” for our children?

    Errr… WHAT? Why do we need a new charm? Ridiculous. Lucky Charms are pure poison anyway. Disgusting! Eating marshmallows.

    Lucky Charms are in my top 5 ulike smurfs cerial. I never got the green apple (jax) splatters from lucky charms, but I did get red and blue loafs from smurfs. Scared the [blue and red] crap outta my 4 yr old self…

    I don’t understand how you can’t like lucky charms though. Its part of complete breakfast, is fortified with vitamins, minerals, and luck, and is so magically delicious that they put it right on the box. You can’t argue with the box… Its in print so it must be true.

    You people are brutal… Is it not enough that the kids are after Lucky the leprechaun for his Lucky Charms, now the adults are after his reputation. Shame on you.

    So, it seems to me this is a temporary charm. With the removal of the most lucky charm [pot of gold] it just appears to me the machine screwed up and made a few billion deformed pots of gold, which looked like hourglasses, so they figured they’d roll with it.
