True to its name, the new Loaded cereal is absolutely packed with flavor in every bite. Unlike most cereals, all of the new Loaded cereals feature “puffed-up larger-than-life squares” that are filled with a sweet vanilla crème. As Brandon Tyrrell, Senior Marketing Communications Manager at General Mills, explains, "We knew we had an opportunity to bring the brands fans love, but bigger and bolder. Loaded brings even more fun and flavor to the breakfast table to help our fans max out on life starting the moment they wake up.” Available beginning this month, the new Loaded cereal comes in three varieties: [Cinnamon Toast Crunch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-pebbles-cereal), Trix and Cocoa Puffs.
