What the fuck happened to Trix cereal??

They used to be actual fruit shapes, not this puffball bullcrap. WTFFF. I used to like trix cereal, but last time I got some I saw they just had trix puffs- that don't even make no sents- so I got it and they taste like shit.
Why did they turn to puffs???

I always thought that was one of the worst cereals.
I am a coco/fruity pebbles kind of guy. Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Rice Crispies, and Life all runner-ups

Holy shit that cracked me up.
I like fruity pebbles but they're a little too sweet. Cocoa rice krispies beat cocoa pebbles in my book.

I think Trix were originally just the puff balls. None of that silly fruit shaped shit...

Its probably cheaper to make them in random shapes.
Like the .000002 cents it cost them to make a shape was crippling their company

I'm sure puff balls are easier to make but they already had the equipment for fruit shapes plus I'd imagine that fruit shapes are more appealing to kids (they are certainly more appealing to me)

The shapes tasted better than the puffs too, it's an entirely different cereal.

Was waiting for someone to say it... they were puff balls first... the fruit was a promo thing they did that ended up lasting forever. I suspect this is because they came into some fruit-shaped molds cheap, and they figured it would be a good promo... then they were such a hit that they just went with it. Then those machines must have finally broke, so they went back to the original. heh.

I never liked those boxed mac and cheeses. Or mac and cheese at all for that matter.
But I had a spongebob one once that had a blue dyed "cheese" to put on it.
Sooooooooo unappealing.
And while we're sorta on that subject, did anyone ever have the "hulk" flavored air-heads? I swear, it really tasted probably exactly how the hulk would taste. Like a really sweaty ripped dude who was angry. It was the nastiest thing I ever had
