Generations of families have memories that include Cheerios cereal so to celebrate its 80th birthday, Cheerios is asking fans to share their favorite Cheerios memories on social media for a chance to win 80 boxes of CheeriOats or a custom-made box. In 1945, CheeriOats changed its name to Cheerios and since then the brand has been on a mission to inspire happy hearts. More than 500 formulas were tested and more than 10 shapes and sizes were considered before General Mills experts found the ideal combination. To help support a healthy heart, medical experts recommend practicing healthy living habits, like maintaining a healthy weight, getting enough physical activity and eating a heart-healthy diet, which can include foods made with whole grain oats, that can help lower cholesterol like Original Cheerios and some/certain other Cheerios flavors. “With more than 100 million Americans having some form of heart disease, Cheerios is prioritizing the importance of heart health and wants to remind Americans that a happy, heart-heathy lifestyle can be fun, easy, and delicious.”Īccording to the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), nearly 1 in 3 American adults have high cholesterol. “Cheerios has always been about the oats and we are using the 80th anniversary to remind consumers that soluble fiber from whole-grain oat foods, like those in Original and Honey Nut Cheerios cereals, can help lower cholesterol as part of a heart-healthy diet*,” said Kathy Dixon, Senior Brand Experience Manager for Cheerios.
The retro, limited-edition box will be hitting store shelves nationally in July. The brand launched in 1941 and was one of the first cereals made with whole-grain, nutrient-packed oats formed into the iconic Os. MINNEAPOLIS-( BUSINESS WIRE)-America’s number-one cereal brand is celebrating 80 years of putting whole grain oats on millions of breakfast tables every morning by reintroducing its original name and packaging: CheeriOats.
