Damn Millennials!! They were round long before they were shaped like fruit
greengo123
The cereal is called 'trix' for a reason.
PhilbertHFZ
They actually were originally balls, then made into shapes, now they are back to original sucks form.
lizarKittenModel
In Mexico they're still shaped as fruits
Bagelz
Trix dont exist anymore. Now they are just the Pit of the Fruit Loop.
zyonasan
Trix were always round. The fruit shapes was just some limited time gimmick.
zapsdiputs
I remember when they were round, then changed to fruit shapes, now they're back to round. The circle of trix
Jusmar
Ya'll are really gonna lose your shit when they start using natural coloring instead of dye. That rainbow milk will just be brown
busterfixxitt
Trix is shaped like rabbit shit. Their mascot is a rabbit. Trix - teaching kids to eat shit and like it, preparing them for adulthood.
AllTheDopeNamesWereTaken
This makes me unreasonably angry.
OliBShoutin
It was due to a lawsuit against fruit loops. The judge threw it out saying "they're not even shaped like fruit" and Trix changed theirs.
archwaykitten
Shrug. They were round when I was a child. I always preferred them that way. They're easier to eat.
RoAnnon
The stupid part was, originally it was "lemon yellow" but they shaped the yellow ones like a banana... no scale needed
quelin
As an old fucker I know that Trix were round before they were shaped like fruit.
Metals4J
I heard they destroyed the cereal shaping equipment, burned the blueprints, and shot all the engineers who developed the original technology
YourBossAndLandlordLikePolitics
How do you know about that operation? Only the men directly involved would have any knowledge, and I only know of 3 that are still alive.
YourBossAndLandlordLikePolitics
.. and none of them would talk. They believed in our mission.
HmmICantThinkOfACleverUsernameRightNow
Wait wait wait... Trix don't have the fun shapes anymore? What the hell, man? I haven't had them in years, but that just ain't right.
Molotovbliss
Apparently they are changing to all natural cookies and flavors. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CIJZcsSVAAA_zEk.png:large
mmaatt8
I stopped eating them once they changed. IT'S NOT THE SAME ANYMORE
nevergoingtogiveyouupnevergoingtoletyoudown
Why I dont buy Trix anymore. Cut corners, lose buyers.
trujello2013
Why did they taste so much better with their weird not fruit shapes? Seriously, did my taste buds change with age or did they mess with the
trujello2013
Ingredients? Im too lazy to google it, even though its been bugging me for actual years now.... my lazyness knows no limits! ;p
EgregiousCodswallop
My dad showed me a newspaper clipping from the 90s, when he had me very young, and swore it was about Trix changing 1/3
EgregiousCodswallop
But all I could see was some classifieds for car sales that happened decades ago. I just couldn't see it. When I showed this meme to my 2/3
EgregiousCodswallop
Nephew, he said it was some SpongeBob shit post. He can't see it. Trix are still regular to him! This has been happening for years. 3/3
EreborRedwolf
So now they no longer count towards the fruits and veg group?
bufflehead
Relatedly, someone once tried to sue Quaker Oats because crunchberries were not real berries.
blueipDriver
It's called 2008 man, damn goverment and housing industry
HandsomeJack19
The shapes were stupid. I'm glad they went back to round.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!
mynameiselliott
Remember Berry Berry Kix
NWeasley21
They also used to be shaped differently. I tried them recently and I think they changed the recipe a bit also, they don't taste the same
EmperorMahaco
They still make that, don't they?
SuperKawaiiChan
They do but they suffered the same fate as Trix. Round and no flavor.
mynameiselliott
Yeah, but it used to be regular Kix with berry-flavored and -shaped pieces mixed in... now they're all round and vaguely berry-flavored.
RoAnnon
They never should have gone to fruit shapes in the first place.
ForTaxReasons
I feel like this should be an unpopular opinion puffin
guminski
You're a fucking monster
RoAnnon
I've heard that before :D
MissingnoMaster
It was a huge step backwards, I hated that they did that.
idontenglishsorry
in my country they still sell the fruit shaped one???wtf maybe its expired? i dont think so actually
xXTOOMUCHSWAGXxX
Is it just me or do they now also taste different, or is it just my taste buds changing.
DivesFromWipeClub
They got a different texture and taste :/
Metals4J
Such advanced cereal-shaping technology was way ahead of its time!
rickeyspanish
they used to be round and then they changed them to fruit shaped and then now they are round again. they taste different cuz they don't 1/2
rickeyspanish
use artificial flavors colors or sweeteners.
mbberry828
Eat Cap'n Crunch berries like an adult
MissLadyPants
I ate a box for every meal consistently and shut green for 3 days. Adulting like a boss.
mifdsam
you mean shit, right?
MissLadyPants
Yea stupid autocorrect
BlackAttackMac
Anyone else miss Oops All Berries?
ReallyNOTmyFAULT
did they go somewhere?
EmperorMahaco
They've been back for a while now, actually (I know I've seen them in stores within the last couple of months).
mbberry828
That's to many berries you had to cut them just like good coke shits to strong
Nab26
Maybe you can't see the shapes since trix are for kids
inoiknownothing
But @OP is a kid, you see

Fuck another matrix possibility
Thelurker232
Wait, can anyone here please confirm that trix are infact round?
filben7
Implying anyone here has ever actually grown up.
ahkmedren
Shit. ._.
illegalmangos
AS A FRESH ADULT I CAN VERIFY THAT TRIX HAS BEEN ROUND SINCE I WAS LIKE 13. It made me the man I am Today - an 18 year old girl
TheSunMotherfukerDoYouPraiseIt
But vegeta, trix are for kids
MeEmBot
No need to remind us of adulthood.

ihatewarmpickles
Silly faggot, dicks are for chicks
trujello2013
No no, trix are for humans and not that damn rabbit is all. As adults are we not all just giant kids? Regardless them kids in the commercial
trujello2013
Were trying to save that rabbit, cuz rabbits cant have that shit! Artificial flavors n soo much sugar! Addicting as hell! :p
TheDeanofLean
Just like Fairygod Parents

In Mexico they are shapes. No idea why they stayed that way but changed in the U.S..

This actually really fucked me up a week ago when I bought trix for the first time in like 15 years
abone2515
This comment has me questioning reality.
UnremarkablyInteresting
You can't spell reality without real. Couple more t's however and you can spell "real titty"

Silly rabbit
BiteTheHandsThatThieve
Holy shit, maybe i really can't see why kids love the taste of cinnamon toast crunch.
bigdaddyfatpants
You should try cheap trixs instead
OfficialCaveJohnson
I'm pretty sure i've heard that before... is that from something?
DukeDarkwood
I saw it on a mind-blown Keanu image, sometime last year I think.
Nab26
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
DoubleSecretAgent
The original poster
Ghost0fDawn
maybe they arent actually shapes because capitalism
DrBruleSaysYes
Oreo13
But what about kids at heart I may be old on the outside but inside I'm still 6
daedalusprospect
It was a long setup. They knew we would all grow up, so waited til we did and changed it to fuck with us.
Thedailywumbo
You stop that right now

No, just the Astro one here.
DukeDarkwood
Actually, it was the text on a mindblown Keanu.
Xevtes
1) We can test this. We need a decent sample of children of various ages, and we ask them if they can see the shapes. A control group of...
Xevtes
2) adults could confirm that only kids can see them or possibly discover proof of the 'inner child'. If no kids of any age see the shapes...
Xevtes
3) then either: the cereal isn't made into shapes anymore, or the current state of humanity has robbed the youth of their innocence.
IlikehowScottishpeopletalk
I actually asked my kids if the Trix were fruit shapes or were they all cereal balls because of this
trujello2013
My 3 year old said balls. That's actually how she asks me for the cereal
dotslashsandwich
...and what'd they say?!? Was it just white noise when they opened their mouth? Did you black out??
th3darkminded
What did tgey say!?
slyfox001
Weren't they at first balls, then did the fruit shapes to compete with Lucky charms marshmallow shapes, then back again
joesasquatch
That's my recollection.
Nab26
And ?
IlikehowScottishpeopletalk
They're round :(
Mrchazzymoto
Yeah they're totally telling you the truth
YourMemeSucksHarderThanaDyson
What if what you heard from your kids was they're round but they really said fruit shape...
darkninja2992
I am both relieved and disappointed
Estoyp00ping
magicalmysterytour
batlrar
The kids probably only said that because the rabbit came to life from the box and told them to keep it a secret.
IlikehowScottishpeopletalk
I actually kind of hope that happened
Nab26
koopaya
Actually I might've cried harder if they were shaped, because I also see round cereal. And that'd mean my imagination was destroyed.
IlikehowScottishpeopletalk
someONEgood
They actually said fruit but you heard it as "round". Also TFW you realize it's a white rabbit because they're magic Trix...
MrZiddz
GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE.
