All you Lucky Charms fans rejoice. Lucky the Leprechaun is going to have a new marshmallow charm to munch on - a yellow "magical" hourglass which gives Lucky "the power to control time", bringing the total number of charms to 8.

Each of Lucky's magical charms bestows upon him their own special powers: hearts brings things to life, shooting stars gives him the power to fly, horseshoes lets him speed things up, clovers bring luck, blue moons grants the power of invisibility, rainbows gives instantaneous travel from place to place and balloons makes things float.

Lucky Charms is actually not too bad nutritionally. It's made from whole grains, as are all General Mills cereals, and there is only 120 calories and 13 grams of sugar per cup, but have you ever looked at any of the charms in the cereal - I haven't.
