FOX NEWS - When a big story breaks, sometimes food brands are a little too eager to join the national conversation, leading to hastily published social media posts.
Cheerios, which is owned by Minneapolis-based General Mills, decided to Tweet a simple salute to Prince Rogers Nelson after the superstar rocker’s passing last Thursday.
“Rest in peace,” Cheerios Tweeted with a simple purple background and the hashtag #prince.
The dot above the “i” was replaced with a single Cheerio.
