Lucky charms cereal, Yuba City, CA, USA

I ate two large bowls of Lucky Charms cereal before bed last night (about 4 cups of cereal in total). And got up about 5 hours later with major cramping, diarrhea and heartburn. Output was green. Cramping and mushy stooling still occuring 12 hours later. This is
not the first time the Lucky Charms illness has struck. I’ve been suspicious of the cereal’s association to this affect in the past but didn’t feel certain until of the connection until today. I usually eat two bowls of cereal but my primary gotos are FrostedFlakes and FrostedMiniWheats. I eat the lucky charms from my kids’ supply when I don’t have my gotos available. My kids are little and only eat smaller portions. I’m done buying this stuff for them—something is up with the cereal’s ingredients. Why are they putting in something that causes this sort of GI response? #LuckyCharms
