New Trix Swirls Offer Quick Breakfast Fun!

Remember Trix as a kid? I sure do, and now with kids of my own, it's something that we get for a special "treat" at our house. With the addition of new Trix Swirls cereal, there's even more colorful fun in our special breakfast occasions.

We were *given a box of new Trix swirls, along with a colorful gift basket, to help us see what all the buzz was about. The Trix tasted much like regular fruity Trix, but the swirls definitely gave them some "tie dyed" appeal. The special flavors include: lemony green, berry berry blue, and rasporangey orange (yes, you read that right -- rasporangey.)


Wanna see for yourself? We have one gift basket and a box of Trix to give to a lucky reader! It includes (everything you see in the photo above): the swirly fun of new Trix Swirls, some watercolor paper, a colorful kids apron, paints, watercolor pencils, brushes, and a box to keep it all in! To enter, simply leave a comment on this post with how you think Trix Swirls were created. (Did they run into one another in the factory, was it a laboratory accident, or were they just born that way?) You have until August 15th at 11:59pm CST to get your entries in.

Giveaways are subject to complete site rules. (Be sure to give us a way to reach you if you win, and remember that we will never use your email or contact info for anything other than to send your prize.) Good luck, and be sure to check out all of our other giveaways!

*Sample and gift basket were received by MyBlogSpark for this post.

My kidlets and I think Trix Swirls were created when there was no more milk left in the fridge and we had to use orange juice. When the orange juice hit the Trix, WHEEEEE!!!!! the Trix exploded in colors, making Trix Swirls! Thank you for the contest!
