"Candy, candy canes, candy corns, and syrup!"
The holidays are right around the corner, and there's room for everyone on the nice list! In addition to having a custom Monopoly game, Buddy the Elf now has his own cereal. General Mills recently announced that a new cereal will be coming to stores near you inspired by the holiday favorite movie, Elf.

In the film, Buddy the Elf says the four main food groups consist of candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup. Using this as inspiration, General Mills created a sugary bowl of pure Christmas pleasure—a cereal that features maple syrup-flavored corn puffs and green and red Christmas tree marshmallows. The green cereal box features an iconic picture of Buddy the Elf, Mr. Narwhal, and the Arctic Puffin.
Fans have taken to Twitter in response to the news:
