I had seen in the news feeds that Lucky Charms Marshmallows were coming soon to the shelves of stores.

I finally saw them last week in a store and decided to buy a package.

The marshmallows are made by Kraft’s Jet-Puffed division.

Here you can see the Lucky Charms shaped marshmallows.

They are of course in the traditional Luck Charms shapes and colors.

Pink hearts, blue moons, green shamrocks and yellow stars.

They are much larger than the small little marshmallows that you get in Lucky Charms.

I was really a bit disappointed. I thought that they would possibly have the same texture and taste as the marshmallows in Lucky Charms.

Instead, they are simply pain old marshmallows that are in the right colors and shapes. Which means the first few taste good and then they are too sweet. I will save them for an occasional treat and eat them just a few at a time.

But, I did have to pull out my special cereal bowl and have a bowl of Lucky Charms. I put a set of the big marshmallows on top to show the size difference.

I have had this cereal bowl since I was a little kid. It was a butter container that was re-purposed as a cereal bowl. We had stacks of them, and I still have my favorite green one after all these years. It brings back so many memories when I use it.

Have you tried the Lucky Charms Marshmallows?
