Chocolate Lucky Charms


Name: Chocolate Lucky Charms
Variation: Lucky Charms
Manufacturer: General Mills

Review: I already love Lucky Charms, and my favorite cereals tend to be chocolate with marshmallows, so really, this is a no-brainer. If there's any flaw with Lucky Charms, it's that the regular pieces are so dull (although I maintain that the balance between those pieces and the marshmallows is what defines the classic cereal), so making them chocolate is an obvious choice. This cereal should be as ubiquitous as chocolate versions of other classics (e.g., Chocolate Toast Crunch, Cocoa Krispies, Cocoa Pebbles), but you don't see it as often, do you? This is a limited edition that was released for St. Patrick's Day, so it has clovers, coins, and pots of gold for marshmallows. The milk leftover is not the most chocolatey I've tasted, but it's enough to make it worth drinking!

Also available with the standard complement of marshmallows.

Rating: 🥣🥣🥣
Leftover Milk: Mildly chocolatey.

Lucky Charms Magic Clovers


Name: Lucky Charms Magic Clovers
Variation: Lucky Charms
Manufacturer: General Mills

Review: Magic Clovers is basically Lucky Charms' Halloween Crunch - it tastes just like the regular cereal, but it turns the milk green! The difference is merely cosmetic, but in a way that's fun. With the marshmallow shapes restricted to gold coins, four leaf clovers, and pots of gold, this is the perfect cereal to eat around St. Patrick's Day. I make a point to grab a box every year.

Leftover Milk: Plain, but green!
