General Mills is doubling down on its promise
to remove all artificial colors and flavors from its cereals, and the one to suffer is the beloved
Trix rabbit. The brand launched an adorable online campaign that serves as a casting
call for real rabbits adorable enough to replace the 57-year-old cartoon mascot -- temporarily, at least. The 55-second video is too cute. There's an off-camera fan blowing on the fur of adorable
rabbits as they strike their realest poses. The rabbits come in all shapes, colors and sizes, and some don costumes. I love the bunny wearing a headband and ready to conquer the gym. Pet bunny owners
can submit their
pet online by Nov. 8 and view applicants using the #RealTrixRabbit hashtag. The winning rabbit will be featured on its own limited-run Trix
box in the rabbit's hometown. After that, the iconic Trix Rabbit will return.
