So I have a problem. I am very particular when I eat. Like I find something I really like to eat and suddenly that’s all I crave and I will literally only eat that. Well I recently got that craving for Lucky Charms cereal. Like I literally … See More
eat it 3-4 times a day. I know it sounds crazy but when I think about eating something else nothing sounds good. Well as I’ve been on my “Lucky Charms Obsession” (that’s what my sister calls it@ I have noticed that I am having significant abdominal pain, gas, and diarrhea. When I pass gas it smells very foul but almost has a Lucky Charms smell to it. When I have diarrhea it literally is GREEN and it smells foul but also semi-sweet. It smells like Lucky Charms. I’ve had 4 different people tell me that. I also can’t seem to hold it. Like when I eat Lucky Charms and my stomach starts cramping, making weird noises, and getting gassy I have to go to the bathroom immediately. I don’t know what’s going on with Lucky Charms but I can 100% say it is the Lucky Charms causing this because I literally don’t eat any else. Well now I’m fixing to have to because this hurts so much and is so uncomfortable. I just want to know what is going on because I haven’t seen or heard of a recall and I know several people have reported this. I figured since General Mills has done anything about it or even acknowledged there could be a problem with it to the public that I might as well go ahead and tell my story too. Hopefully someone will do something because I honestly don’t want anyone to feel as horrible as I do after eating Lucky Charms.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Gas, Cramps, Stomach Pain, Green Stool

I've always had lucky charms and never had any issues, but I received a free brand new box from a friend yesterday and ate some before I went to sleep.I woke up with severe stomach pain, we've all had bad stomach pain from gas that usually only … See More
last for 30 minutes to an hour, but this was different.It lasted several hours until it went away, and I also had bad diarrhea (gross but you get the picture).I then looked up "Lucky Charms" on google out of curiosity and sure enough I saw that general mills was being probed by the FDA for illness related to lucky charms.I think there should at least be a recall rather than just saying nothing is wrong IMO.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Stomach Pain, Gas

Within 30-1hr of eating Lucky Charms Cereal that I purchased here my stomach started hurting. I ended up having explosive diarrhea. It hurt so bad and lasted so long I was in the bathroom over hour. This continued for another bowel movement to which I almost didn’t … See More
make it to the bathroom in time. I thought maybe my stomach couldn’t tolerate 2% milk anymore so I switched to Silk Milk. The symptoms were quite as severe but the symptoms were the same. Also my poop smells like lucky charms and it’s very green. All my symptoms started in February 2022.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Stomach Pain, Green Stool
