Four years later, General Mills filed a federal lawsuit against Adkin, alleging that the tainted berries were “unsuitable for use” in their blueberry scones. The Cinnamon Toast Crunch will work just the same to give your shrimp that crunchy texture, but the cinnamon adds some sweet flavor to the mix. but were unable to use them after discovering shrimp pieces mixed inside the berry packaging. At least thats what Jensen Karp, the Los Angeles-based comedian, writer and dad, claims he discovered Monday. In 2007, the company ordered 1.24 million pounds of blueberries from Adkin Blue Ribbon Packing Co. Following further investigation, Cinnamon Toast Crunch informed Jensen that the image he posted showed not shrimp tails but an accumulation of the cinnamon sugar that sometimes can. This March the Internet was in a frenzy over the possibility of Cinnamon Toast Crunch boxes containing crispy shrimp tails. Its a shrimp tail an empty shrimp tail coated in toasty bits. Incredibly, General Mills had a previous issue with finding shrimp in places where they shouldn’t be-except they were the Jensen Karp of that situation. Because Karp is right: the only reason this story went ridiculously viral is because they opted to rip a page out of Gaslighting for Dummies, telling him that he wasn’t actually seeing what he held in his own hand. On Monday, the comedian caused a social-media furor when he tweeted a picture of his Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal and tagged the brand's official social-media account. The thing is, all Cinnamon Toast Crunch or General Mills had to do was.NOT decide from a photograph that Karp was wrong about what he literally had in his hands, and instead get to the part where they ask for the package, offer to send him a few coupons or an ‘Mmm.real cinnamon!’ face mask or whatever huge companies do for damage control. Jensen Karp said he found shrimp tails inside a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, leading General Mills, which owns the cereal brand, to announce an investigation. He indicated that he purchased the box at Costco in Woodland Hills, California, but Costco did not respond to our request for comment either. But according to writer-producer-podcaster Jensen Karp, a family pack from a local Costco had. We also reached out to Karp for comment, but jave not yet received a response. It goes without saying: Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal should not include cinnamon-crusted shrimp tails. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) told VICE that it could not comment on potential or ongoing investigations, and did not confirm whether it would be taking up the case of the cinnamon coated-shrimp tails.
