The rumors are true: General Mills and Ziploc have come together to fix a problem that’s been bothering cereal fans for years. The new Cheerios with Ziploc PantrySeal is the first-ever cereal to include a reusable bag within its contents to make for easy pouring *and* preservation of your favorite cereal.
In a statement released by General Mills, the company notes that at least 90% of cereal lovers take extra steps to seal their favorite cereal each time they open the box. Whether that means putting your Cheerios in a different container, rolling up the bag or adding a clip, it’s become inconvenient for everyone.
“General Mills has received letters, emails and DMs asking for an easier way to reseal a cereal box, and we decided it was time to partner with the ultimate freshness brand: Ziploc,” said Emilie Knox, vice president and business unit director for Cheerios at General Mills. “Cheerios with Ziploc PantrySeal takes a small, everyday cereal frustration and finally gives consumers the simple solution they’ve been asking for, making the whole routine easier and more enjoyable.”
Additionally, the Cheerios with Ziploc PantrySeal also provides another effective means to enjoy your cereal each morning. The resealable bag was made to open only partially across the top, creating a convenient pouring method. That means no more carefully tearing into your bag or getting the scissors out for that perfect corner cut.
For now, the new Cheerios with Ziploc PantrySeal will be sold exclusively on Walmart.com, where you can find Ziploc versions of standard Cheerios and Honey Nut Cheerios. The product will expand in grocery aisles near you within the upcoming months.
