General Mills is launching ice cream-flavored cereals inspired by Drumsticks, the ice cream sundae cones that you probably ate at some point during your childhood.

Although there are 37 different variations of the Drumstick ice cream posted on the product's official website, a representative for General Mills told INSIDER that the company's new cereals come in two different flavors: mint chocolate and classic vanilla.

While the cereal isn't made with ice cream like the original treat that's encased in a chocolate shell and covered in peanuts, the sweetened corn and wheat cereal comes complete with "ice cream flavored scoops," "cocoa nuggets," and "cone cereal pieces," according to the back of the cereal box.

Employees at a Walmart located in Cincinatti, Ohio, posted a photo of the new cereal to the store's Instagram, which we first spotted on Cosmopolitan.

The cereals were also spotted at a Walmart in South Carolina, according to an Instagram post by snackstalker.

 

The General Mills representative told INSIDER that the cereals are starting to appear at select stores now and will be more widely available nationwide later this summer. Both flavors of Drumstick Cereal cost $3.98 for a 17.5-ounce box.
