*contest closed* Trix Swirls Creative Kids Gift Basket *Giveaway!*

10:40 AM Posted by The Mom Jen


I've eating Trix for as long as I can remember. The sweet taste of the crunchy cereal mixed with milk, creating a strawberry milk was my favorite. I could eat it all day long! Then when I was pregnant with my 3 kids, cereal was my craving food....again all day long. It's no secret that my younger two kids have inherited my sweet tooth and love Trix for breakfast, and as a go-to snack dry!

Blog Search
Thanks to My Blog Spark, our family got to try the new Trix Swirls, here's a brief tidbit on the cereal...
Trix Swirls® combines two mouthwatering fruity colors into every fun puff that will satisfy kids´ taste buds and spark their creativity! A good source of calcium and vitamin D, the Trix Rabbit won´t be the only one who can´t resist these fruity combos, which include lemony green, berry berry blue, and rasporangey orange!

When our cereal came, it didn't matter what time it was, it was cereal time for the 3 of 4 of us home!! We all got our bowls, milk, and spoons and tried Trix Swirls. True to form, they were delicious! They were packed with fruity flavor in each spoonful. "They look like little planets!" I heard as well as the colors on each puff were [painted] "on wif a paintbwush" from my 3 year old! We had to stop at two bowls each or we wouldn't have more for tomorrow! The calcium and vitamin D source is all bonus to our family as well!

-coupon for 1 free box of Trix Swirls cereal

    After speaking with my younger son, he said he thinks the color swirls were mixed by accident at the Trix factory, and that the managers thought the swirls were so cool that they decided to make a new Trix product.

    Anyone interested in cancer prevention should a look at www.vitaminD3world.com The Canadian Cancer Society now recommends that everyone take vitamin D to prevent cancer. This site has good summaries of the data and offers a new formulation of vitamin D in a micro-pill formulation. The pills have been formulated with cellulose which absorbs water very quickly. This ensures that the pill breaks up very quickly to provide for maximum absorption. Many vitamin D pills on the market have very poor dissolution properties resulting in poor absorption. Their pill is very small and tasteless so you can just crunch them up if you don’t want to swallow them.
    The site also offers to supply customers with a free supply of 400IU for their children and it also has a good newsletter.
