Cinnamon Toast Crunch Confirms the Cereal Squares are Eating Each Other
MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cinnamon Toast Crunch has always embraced the absurd. But what's happening right now is more than just absurd — it's unheard of.
In an unexpected turn of breakfast events, the crunchy, swirly Cinnadust-covered cereal squares are eating each other. Notorious for their rowdy, chomp-happy behavior, the squares are spiraling further out of control than ever before, and we're still uncovering how far it's gone. Turns out, when something tastes this good, it can lead to… unexpected consequences.
There have been reports of mysterious occurrences: muffled crunching from behind pantry doors, swirls of loose Cinnadust, and sealed boxes with just one lone square inside. The chaos escalated when content creators began receiving sealed boxes containing a single surviving cereal square and cryptic clues, fueling speculation and playful sleuthing across social media. After launching an internal search, we traced the source to a limited run where some Cinna-Squares seem to have snacked their way through the rest of the box. We're calling each of these lone pieces of cereal 'The Last Square.'
'Look, we're surprised but not sure the cereal is really to blame here,' shares Brandon Tyrrell, Sr. Marketing Communications Manager at General Mills. 'Still, this bizarre (but undeniably delicious) development has forced us to act. We're running out of time — and cereal — and we need your help.'
Cinnamon Toast Crunch is asking our biggest fans to visit cinnamontoastcrunch.com to join the search to find these rogue boxes. You can opt in for a chance to get your own box and if yours contains 'The Last Square,' you'll be eligible to redeem it for a full year's supply of Cinnamon Toast Crunch to help us contain the cinnamon-y chaos.
Check out @cinnamontoastcrunch on social for updates, theories and exactly how the squares lost control.
And in the meantime, keep an ear out. If you hear crunching… it might already be too late.

Lazeez Shawarma Celebrates Canada Day with Free Flag Giveaway Across 60+ locations
MISSISSAUGA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--This Canada Day, Lazeez Shawarma is celebrating the nation we all call home by giving away 50,000 free Canadian flags across 60+ locations in the Greater Toronto Area —once again inviting the community to show their Canadian pride and spirit. Simply walk into any Lazeez restaurant and ask for a flag— no purchase necessary. It's a small gesture with a big meaning, especially during a time when Canadians come together to celebrate unity, diversity, and shared values. 'At Lazeez, we're proudly Canadian,' said a Lazeez spokesperson. 'Canada Day is a moment to reflect on the country we love—and for us, that means giving people a way to show their pride. There's nothing more symbolic than the flag.' This marks the 11th consecutive year Lazeez has handed out flags for Canada Day, a tradition that started at a single location and has grown alongside the community it serves. Now, with 60+ restaurants across the GTA, the annual giveaway has become a familiar part of local celebrations. Flags are available while supplies last, so visitors are encouraged to come early and join in the celebration. And in the spirit of the day, anyone wearing Canada-themed clothing—whether it's a red shirt, maple leaf hat, or anything festive—will receive 25% off all items. At Lazeez, the celebration is about more than food—it's about community, tradition, and pride in the country we all call home.
