The Adventures of Cinnamon Girl: A 3-Act Twitter Play

Act 1

Me: Hey, @GenMillsCereal, my daughter wants to know why there are no girl Cinnamon Toast Crunch people. (pic of back of cereal box with all boy characters)

Response: Thank you for your tweet. We will get back to you shortly. Thank you for your patience!

Act 2

Act 3 (Two Months Later)

Response: Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Our marketing teams have already changed the design of our cinnamojis and these boxes are flowing into market now. Have a good day. (smile emoji)

Me: That's awesome news! She's so excited to hear this that she wrote her name inside her new journal as "Evie AKA Cinnamon Girl"

So, there you have it.

Little girl sees a dramatic cereal box injustice, speaks up, and things change. Important things, like getting female names and pronounces attached to anthropomorphized pieces of breakfast cereal.

I’ll post an update if the girltastic cinnamoji-graced Cinnamon Toast Crunch boxes show up in a grocery store near me… but keep your ginormous googly eyes peeled and your abstract black oval arms ready to snatch up a box and send me a pic.
