Posted on

Fans of Wendy’s light-chocolate flavored Frosty have something to get very excited about. The company is partnering with Kellogg Company to turn the Frosty into a cereal!

The iconic Frosty flavor will become a breakfast according to a new CNN report.

The limited edition “Wendy’s Frosty Chocolately Cereal” will become available in grocery stores this December, right in time for the holidays.

According to a press release, the cereal’s chocolate-flavored marshmallow pieces “intermingle with crispy, cocoa-coated round cereal bites” to “evoke the irresistible taste of a Wendy’s Frosty.”

cereal will be sold at a suggested price of $3.99, and each box will also include a coupon for a free Frosty from Wendy’s.

The Frosty was added to Wendy’s menus in the 1960s and is still popular today.

Wendy’s has previously connected with Pringles in the past, (also owned by the Kellogg company) to put out flavors that were akin to Wendy’s Spicy Chicken Sandwich and its Baconator.
Kellogg has well-known brands, including cereals Corn Flakes, Frosted Flakes and Froot Loops. The company hasn’t had the best press in recent days.

Roughly 1,400 workers at the company are currently on strike and demanding they be paid living wages and given better benefits. The strike has impacted Kellogg plants in Omaha, Nebraska, Battle Creek, Michigan, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and Memphis, Tennessee.

“For more than a year throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, Kellogg workers around the country have been working long, hard hours, day in and day out, to produce Kellogg ready-to-eat cereals for American families,” Anthony Shelton, president of the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union, said according to the New York Times.
