From: General Mills
Introduced in 2017


This cereal is described on the front of the box as "a sweetened whole grain corn cereal flavored with other natural flavors."

The cereal pieces are meant to resemble the Girl Scouts' famous Thin Mint cookies in both flavor and appearance. There are subtle tones of chocolate in each bite, but the biggest flavor impression comes from the mint. The cookie-shaped cereal pieces look a little like flattened Cocoa Puff pieces.

The back of the box, when the cereal was first introduced in January 2017, featured a panel called "Be A Conservation Superstar" which offered advice to kids on how to conserve and recycle in their own homes and neighborhoods.





The first 11 Ingredients listed on the side panel are whole grain corn, sugar, corn meal, dextrose, palm oil, cocoa processed with alkali, corn syrup, salt, caramel color, canola oil and cornstarch.

At the same time the cereal came out, General Mills introduced a partner cereal called Girl Scouts Caramel Crunch which was meant to bring to mind Girl Scouts Samoas cookies.

Like the Caramel Crunch spin, the corn flavor casts a shadow on the generally excellent flavor mimickry of Thin Mints. (Crushes into a wicked rich chocolate-mint corn meal, to boot!)
