Cap’n Horatio Magellan Crunch is a weird guy. In fact, I once wrote an op-ed about how the Cap’n is one of the last remaining bastions of cereal’s ’80s & ’90s golden era, back when off-the-wall breakfast gimmicks were a dime a chocolate-coated dozen. While other cereal brands were trying to remove artificial ingredients and promote active, on-the-go mealtimes, Cap’n Crunch was still wack-adaisically dropping Creamsicle and Cotton Candy cereals—not to mention atomically colored Slurpees and pancake syrup.

And don’t even get me started on Canuck Crunch.

On one hand, it's sad there's no maple flavoring here. But at the same time, I love how this calls the geopolitical loyalty of the Cap'n's military service entirely into question https://t.co/rdBZOurYcI

As a result, I’m always eager to see what else this kooky Cap’n and his detached eyebrows has up his nonsensically nautical sleeves.

That said, I’ll admit Quaker’s latest Chocolate Caramel Crunch isn’t quite as inspired as the Cap’n’s other seafaring fare—the combo of chest pieces and flavored Crunch Berries reminds me of the lackluster Chocolatey Berry Crunch. But I am interested to see if there’s better caramel flavor here than in the likewise *meh* Cap’n Crunch’s Caramel Popcorn Crunch.

A bit more interesting are these snack pouches of Cap’n Crunch Churro Bites. Taking a clear page out of Cinnamon Toast Crunch’s playbook, it’s unclear whether these will be purely chocolate flavored, or if there will be cinnamon at play, too. Either way, it’s rare to see Cap’n Crunch stray from chest and Berry shaped pieces, so these could surprise me texturally as well as tastefully.

I just hope the box art is accurate, and an actual Cap’n Crunch bursts out of each pouch to feed me Churros while giggling like a mustachioed Salacious Crumb.

Both of these Cap’n Crunch releases have been listed on the respective sites of Kroger and its subsidiary stores, so it might be a safe bet to start searching there first.
