Post Consumer Brands has launched its latest Hostess-themed cereal, and it’s based on none other than the iconic Twinkies snack cake.
The company announced Wednesday that Twinkies Cereal will hit Walmart shelves nationwide in late December, giving fans “a delicious new way to enjoy the snack we all know and love in cereal form.”
Twinkies Cereal is said to replicate the taste of the original golden sponge cake treats and their look -- only in miniature form.
