This is exactly what you want, but watch out...
My hands, shaky from anticipating the impending sugar shock, cut open the box that arrived from MegaShip to reveal what would be the holy grail of cereal eating, if this had been 1985. Yes, I ordered a huge bag of Charms, minus the Lucky. The bag that arrived is a 1lb bag of Charms, exactly what is pictured in the graphic for this product. The Ziploc style bag is roughly the size of the bag inside of a family sized box of Lucky Charms cereal. There is a lot of freeze-dried marshmallow powder at the bottom of the bag, and I am okay with that. That stuff mixes well with milk. Imagine my shock when, after ripping open the zip top and crunching down on what I thought would be simultaneously an otherworldly taste experience and a terrifying future for my pancreas, I instead chewed (and chewed, and chewed) on what tasted like Charms, but with the texture of that raisin of indeterminate age I found in the couch cushions the other day. Don't judge me, I was hungry. I realized, though, that the bag was warm when it arrived, and through the haze of low blood sugar I managed to logic out that these were *freeze-dried* and perhaps throwing them in a freezer would help. An hour later, I was rewarded with freaking LUCKY CHARMS CHARMS, minus the Lucky! Yes, the freezer did the trick, converted warm ABS plastic textured marshmallows into the sublime chunks of cereal manna I expected to get when I bought this bag. So, kids; if your charms are warm when you get them, toss the bag whole into the freezer for an hour and you will be rewarded with exactly what you are expecting. Thus, to quote the great Macho Man Randy Savage, "Oh yeeeeaaaah!"
