Lucky Charms was part of 4 cereals that were on sale for $1.77 (Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Lucky Charms, Honeynut Cherrios and Reese's Puffs) and on 2/3/2023, I had a bowl of Lucky Charms around 5 PM and at 930 PM. I experience stomach discomfort and foul-smelling diarrhea. A similar taste from burping the cereal, was similar to a smell from the diarrhea...Definitely strange.Update 2/27: NEEDLESS TO SAY, I HAVE TRIED BOTH THE CINNAMON TOAST CRUNCH AND THE LUCKY CHARMS AND BOTH HAVE CAUSED DIARRHEA. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Burping

Sounds like you might have a gluten intolerance or even a full on allergen also known as celiac

Celiac disease is not an allergy, it's an autoimmune disease.

Yeah, but why all of the sudden, just now experiencing problems??…
Sounds like you may be lactose intolerant
Common denominator? The milk is bad.

Hi, thanks for your comment. Not necessarily, it is possible to get sick from the cereal as well. In fact, starting in late 2021, Lucky Charms food poisoning reports started to trend on our site and we got around 7,300 persons citing they got sick from it. even the FDA initiated an investigation into it. A similar situation was related to Cheerios cereal in 2022.
