With many consumers now working from home for the foreseeable future, it can start to feel like the days are blending into one, but Kellogg's socks have arrived to amend this issue. In partnership with Twitter, the two brands came together to create the term 'Blursday' -- a concept which describes not knowing which day it is.
In light of this, Kellogg's launched its 'Blursday Go-Away' kit, which includes Monday through Sunday printed on the seven socks. To make things more interesting, the cereal brand leveraged Twitter's insights to learn about what flavors consumers are discussing on certain days of the week As a result, each sock has a distinct flavor theme, ranging from 'Chocolatey Delight' Monday to 'Blueberry with Lemon Clusters' Thursday.
