General Mills releasing new Kelce Mix cereal that is mashup of three favorites

Photos were shared earlier this year of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his brother, Jason, on the set of a commercial. It appeared to be a spot for Lucky Charms, judging by the social media posts.

As it turns out, the brothers are helping launch a new type of cereal. Itā€™s called Kelce Mix and itā€™s a mashup of three General Mills favorites: Reeseā€™s Puffs, Lucky Charms and Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Here is a look at the box.

According to Nutritionix, the cereal will be 150 calories per serving with 11 grams of sugar. Earlier this year, the Kelce brothers listed their five favorite cereals and both had Reeseā€™s Puffs at No. 1. But Lucky Charms and Cinnamon Toast Crunch made the cut, too. ā€œYou canā€™t beat the marshmallows,ā€ Travis Kelce said of Lucky Charms. Both of them had Cinnamon Toast Crunch in their top three. But Reeseā€™s Puffs was their clear favorite. ā€œI could eat a whole box right now,ā€ Travis said of Reeseā€™s Puffs. ā€œLiterally an entire box. I could … put it in a popcorn bowl and just … add the entire gallon of milk to it and just walk it. Just absolutely walk it. I will eat it. It will take me like three hours to do it and Iā€™ll just be eating the soggy ones at the bottom that I still enjoy.ā€ ā€˜IT WORKSā€™ At the Cannes Lions advertising festival earlier this year in France, the Kelce brothers talked about the new cereal. ā€œWe were like, this is going to be terrible, but itā€™s good,ā€ Jason Kelce said, per the Philadelphia Inquirer. ā€œTrust me, I donā€™t know why it works, but it works.ā€ Travis added helpfully: ā€œI do. Itā€™s sugar.ā€ But Travis walked that back a bit and said he ate the cereal all day while shooting the commercial and never got sick, the Inquirer story said.
