Dunkaroos Are Making A Coming A Much-Needed Comeback In 2020

Everyone get your scrunchies, chia pets, choker necklaces, and Tamagotchis out, because Dunkaroos — every ’90s kid’s favorite sugary snack — is back. The only thing that could be better than this news is if TRL also came back. Then we could all run home at 3:45, slam a bunch of Dunkaroos down our gullet, and watch music videos in ’90s bliss together.

Yep, General Mills-owned Dunkaroos are coming back in 2020.

According to a blog post by General Mills,  you’ll be able to find the goodies as soon as this summer (we hope you have a good dentist!). They wrote, “The lunch table is the ultimate staple of ‘90s nostalgia – where meaningful friendships were made, snack allies were formed, and critical trades brought kids together over their taste buds.”

So what do they taste like? “Dunkaroos is making an epic comeback with the most requested and beloved Dunkaroos flavor, Vanilla Cookies and Vanilla Frosting with Rainbow Sprinkles,” they wrote. YES.

Here’s what every ’90s kid on earth is saying about the Dunkaroos comeback:

This monstrosity is something many of us are guilty of creating. Dunkaroos is doing God’s work. 

Other long-time brands hopped onto the wonderful news:

Canadians—who always had Dunkaroos (yep, they were only ripped from American hands)—warned us that the formulation has changed, though. Say it ain’t so. 

There are some Debbie Downers out there (but…are they wrong?):

Meanwhile, the social media manager over at Dunkaroos is killing it:

Dunkaroos: We’re eagerly awaiting this summer!
