The Trix Popcorn is a crunchy, cereal-inspired snack for avid fans of the namesake breakfast product to try out on their next movie night. The snack starts off with freshly prepared popcorn that's covered in a sweet, fruity glaze to give it an almost kettle corn flavor profile thanks to slightly salty flavor. The product is infused with actual bits of Trix cereal to give it a chromatic touch and please the eye of the snacker as they munch away.
The Trix Popcorn comes as the latest of General Mills' cereal-inspired popcorn snack, which will be right at home with the existing flavors including Cocoa Puffs and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The popcorn is arriving at Sam's Club locations in 20-ounce bags and Walmart in seven-ounce bags priced at $6.48 and $3.69, respectively.
