Kellogg's releases 'Together With Pride' cereal celebrating preferred gender pronouns
The recipe features berry-flavored rainbow hearts coated in edible glitter
Kellogg Company released a limited-edition breakfast cereal designed to support the LBGTQ community and to promote a message that people do not need to fit in a single box when selecting pronouns.
The "boxes are for cereal, not for people" concept celebrates people "no matter who you are, who you love, or what pronouns you use," Kellogg said in a statement. The product is called Together With Pride cereal.
On each box, consumers will be able to obtain a tear-out "Together Band" to share and wear their pronouns, which includes representation for non-binary and transgender individuals.
The concept is a collaboration with GLAAD, according to the company.

"Our delicious new recipe features berry-flavored rainbow hearts dusted with edible glitter," Doug VanDeVelde, General Manager of Kellogg U.S. Cereal Category, explained in a statement.
For every box sold, the company said it will donate $3 (up to $140,000) to support GLAAD when buyers upload their receipts. The cereal boxes began to hit shelves in mid-May in anticipation of Pride Month in June.
