BATTLE CREEK, Mich., Sept. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Feeling like you've lost track of the days? Like it's Blursday, the 47th of Augtember? Well, while we have all been navigating the new normal of each day merging into the next, the feel-good food experts at Kellogg's® Special K®, fueled by a love for real ingredients, figured out a deliciously simple way to beat that blurry feeling — the Special K Blursday Go-Away Kit.
Special K partnered with experts at Twitter and @TwitterData to tap into real people's conversations and discover which flavors Americans are talking about and when. These delectable discussions inspired Special K to match flavors you want to the days you might just want them:
- Monday: Special K® Chocolatey Delight
- Tuesday: Special K® Red Berries
- Wednesday: Special K® Blueberry with Lemon Clusters
- Thursday: Special K® Banana
- Friday: Special K® Raspberry
- Saturday: Special K® Fruit & Yogurt
- Sunday: Special K® Cinnamon Brown Sugar Crunch Protein
Inspired by these Twitter conversations, Special K devised a delish idea to help Americans discern the days in different tasty ways — and the Special K Blursday Go-Away kit was born. The kits include tools to keep you on track with:
- Flave-of-the-Day Socks including seven pairs, each labeled with the day and decorated with designs inspired by that day's desired flavor.
- Flavors You're Feeling Weekly Planner that breaks out each week with delicious cereal and a you've-got-this attitude.
- Seven flavors of Special K to help fuel you through the fog of even the blurriest, and busiest, of weeks.
Whitney Port, a star who made her career navigating the blurriness of real life and reality television, is already a huge fan of the Special K Blursday Go-Away Kit and putting it to good use.
"Wearing so many hats as a mom, entrepreneur and designer creates a chaotic schedule and makes the days seem to blur together," Port said. "Special K has these adorable flave-of-day socks that help me keep my days straight. Monday is my personal fave…Chocolatey Delight!"
