Original Tweet

Grab your popcorn.

Baw finds 2 shrimp tails in his CT Crunch ( ), and CT Crunch promptly comments with a typical customer service response.



Baw sends DM to CT Crunch with more info.


CT Crunch responds that the SHRIMP is actually just CINNAMON SUGAR


Random internet user has a funny comment (there are more but too much effort to screenshot):


Original baw mad that CT Crunch lied to him:


CT Crunch unsuccessfully tries to bribe baw with coupons:


Baw calling CT Crunch out:




CT Crunch being treated with the skepticism they deserve:


But then...the plot thickens ( ):











So this is where everything stands. There are some pretty good memes coming out of this saga. I hope the guy updates everyone with further information. The end.

Here is an update:

NYT picks up story

CTC releases a statement:


Topanga's husband aka original baw updates us:









Funny Tweets are made and RTd by Topanga's husband:

I don't know that I'll ever be able to look at a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch the same again.

Seems to me like a bag of trash somehow got dumped into the machine that makes the cereal. Gross.

Lol, no that’s not a shrimp tail. It’s just sugar. Like do you have eyes?

Reminds me of that time I opened up a box of Cracklin' Oat Bran and there were three Blue Crabs in there instead of cereal.

I couldn't imagine what could be accurately called a betrayal by CTC. But this is it. You nailed the description. I'm broken.

Holy cow. Guess I won’t be eating Cinnamon Toast Crunch again. That sucks, it was one of my favorites.

Busted. They've been experimenting with a new product: cinnamon toast scrimp and grits; but accidentally crossed the streams. Secrets out General Mills.

I haven’t eaten a bowl of cereal since 1988, but I did peel five pounds of boiled shrimp yesterday. None of this happened at a Holiday Inn Express, either.

When people "find" things in food, I tend to lean on it being BS. It wouldn't be hard to coat some shrimp tails in cinnamon and claim they were in the bag.

Itd be more believable if it were metal shavings or a random object. But SHRIMP TAILS?

In any case, the company calling them "sugar clumps" is bewildering.
