From: Post
Introduced in 2018


This cereal was exclusively available at Walmart stores in December 2018. It began to roll out to other outlets throughout 2019.

The front of the box indicates that the cereal is "sour then sweet." The cereal pieces are shaped like the Sour Patch Kids candies that the cereal takes its name from. The kid-shaped pieces are red, blue, green, orange and yellow. In the bowl of cereal depicted on the box, the pieces look more like colorful twigs than kids.





The ingredients listed on the nutrition panel in 2019 were sugar, corn flour, wheat flour, whole grain oat flour, hydrogenated vegetable oil, corn syrup, citric acid, salt, sodium citrate, canola oil, calcium carbonate, natural and artificial flavor, red 40, yellow 5, yellow 6, blue 1, BHT added to preserve freshness and a smattering of vitamins and minerals.





Company Description: Founded by C.W. Post, the company began in 1895 in Battle Creek, Michigan under the name Postum Cereals. Their first product was a coffee substitute called Postum. The first breakfast cereal to come from the company was Grape-Nuts in 1897... Read on and see all cereals from Post
