With plastic straws quickly falling out of favor, Kellogg's has decided to bring back its iconic Froot Loops Cereal Straws.
The resurrection of Froot Loops Cereal Straws can be credited to a fan named Hannah Wade who started an online petition to bring back the sugary sweet straws. The petition garnered nearly 13,000 signatures, making it clear that many fans were nostalgic for the novelty breakfast item. In turn, Kellogg's has responded by announcing that Cereal Straws will return for a limited-time. The only catch is that fans will have to make their way to the Kellogg’s NYC Café in order to get them.
Like many other say brands, Kellogg’s has learned to listen to fans when they show interest in the return of discontinued products.
