Post is introducing two cookie-inspired cereals that will delight those with a sweet tooth and especially those with a soft spot for Chips Ahoy! and Nutter Butter cookies.

While the Post [Chips Ahoy! cereal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-oreo-puffs-cereal) offers a fun way to indulge in the taste of a classic chocolate chip cookie for breakfast, the Post Nutter Butter cereal features crunchy peanut-shaped pieces that are topped with a creamy coating made with real peanut butter. In the coming days, both cereals will be made available to consumers online and in stores exclusively through [Walmart](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oreo-puffs).

After introducing Oreo O's in 1998 and discontinuing them nine years later, Post, as of 2017, has now resumed production indefinitely for one of its most popular cookie-inspired cereals. The all-new Post Chips Ahoy! and Post Nutter Butter varieties will only be offered by Walmart until April 1st, 2018, after which they will be available through other retailers.
