The Suggestion has been revised and edited, most posts made before 9/22 are probably outdated.

Mockups: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1379248759/ (my version), and https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1382940431/ (chocolate version with accurate marshmallows look).

When the scratch shop reopens, they should sell a (limited edition) scratch cereal that would fund scratch using the money used to buy a box of it.

To make the cereal, it must be certified gluten free (gluten free and machines don't have gluten remains from other cereals) to emphasize scratch is for everyone, and all ingredients must be from a natural source. It should be fruit-flavored corn puffs (like Trix but scratch themed and gluten free guaranteed) with flavors from real fruit and natural dyes for the main cereal, the cereal's flavors will look like different types of blocks, and start and stop buttons as the following list:

Watermelon: Stop Sign
Orange: C-Block
Banana: Hat Block
Lime: Green Flag
Blueberry: Stack Block
Plum: Reporter Block

There would also be marshmallows with natural dyes (like Lucky Charms but scratch themed), the dyes should add something that resembles the 8 scratch mascots on the marshmallows.

To make it happen the scratch team should collab with a cereal company that can successfully make it certified gluten free without contamination in machines. General Mills would work best make it as they made both of the cereals I compared previously, and it that company is chosen, then it should use the lucky charms machines (since Lucky Charms is certified gluten free).

Hope you like my idea, give suggestions to improve it.

To make the cereal, it must be top 9 food allergy friendly (free from dairy, peanuts, eggs, shellfish, fish, tree nuts, soy, gluten, and sesame seeds), real fruit should be the main ingredient for the main cereal, the fruit will be reshaped to look like types of blocks, and start and stop buttons as the following list:

I don't think you realize that it is really hard if not impossible to make a cereal that excludes all of these that is remotely healthy.

I put that in to represent that anyone can use, so anyone should have the ability to eat this cereal without problems.

Also, it uses fruit that is reshaped (cut) to look like scratch things and marshmallows that look like mascots (uses natural dyes).

Ok, maybe not. Do the fruit shapes contain any other ingredients?

Are the fruits dried fruits (like apple chips?)

Apple chips are the first dried fruit you can think of?

I wouldnt market that as cereal, its more of a fruit snack like fruit rolls (from what im seeing). Its basically impossible to make a cereal made from pure fruit, as it is too sugary for a meal. Furthermore, excluding dairy, peanuts, eggs, tree nuts, soy and gluten excludes basically all possible ingredients. (Shellfish for breakfast is something rich people do, i guess)

So is it a cereal, a snack or something else? Too much fruit (and marshmallows) raises the sugar levels too much to make any cereal. On the other hand, it could make a decent snack.

Marshmallows do not include any of the top 9 allergies, and dried fruit shouldn't either, but we are still waiting on a response about the dried fruit from the op.

ngl if we had scratch fruit snacks or fruit cereal or fruit whatever, i'd probably eat it lol
i love fruit
and scratch

Yeah cuz like
They’re really iconic when it comes to dried fruit (sorry raisins)

Quite Interesting

Support. Considering Kelleys did a collab with Stranger Things, they would probably be willing to do this.
The Demogorgon Crunch was flavored like Egos with a few marshmallows. And it's the same company who does Fruit Loops, so they could 100% do this.

Support, this is unique

No Milli and Zepto. Are we trying to scare kids into buying it?

That logic makes no sense, considering that you would be less inclined to buy “scary cereal”, not more
Also the marshmallows will most likely just be the general shapes of the mascots with no faces or anything

Thank God.

A good way for Scratch to make money which is the best thing Scratch can do to maintain the site (besides updates)

No, just fruit chopped up

The mockup shows the sprites themselves, but if the natural dyes make it impossible to make a complete mascot-look-alike, then no faces.

Bump

all the c blocks are gonna break during packaging
