It seems after 16 years of intense fighting, the people of South Korea have finally gotten what they had so hard struggled for. The green onion cereal?! Yes, you heard that right. For 16 years, the people of South Korea have been fighting with the Kellogs corporations to introduce, what can be presumed as the weirdest breakfast cereal ever thought of by mankind. So how did the fight for Green Onion Cereal begin? Why would anyone even want green onion cereal? and most importantly, is it any good?

This bizarre story starts back in 2004 when Kellogg's cooperations started a new advertising campaign in which the public could vote on which cereal they wanted them to release next. A TV commercial offered two cartoon candidates in the presidential election for the Chex Choco Empire - chocolate-flavoured Cheki and green onion-flavoured Chaka. Truth be told, the vote was already decided before voting even started. Kellogg's had been mass-producing the extra chocolaty cereal for quite some time now. This whole voting ad campaign was to get people more engaged and hyped on the cereal. Kellogg's thought it would be an easy win. I mean, who would want to eat green onion cereal? Boy, were they surprised.

When voting first commenced, Cheki was in a big lead, but as the voting progressed, the tides began to turn as a giant army of trollers assembled on the front door of Kellogg's website. At first, it started slow, but as the days passed by and momentum picked up, Chaka overtook Cheki. Kellogg executives scrambled around to turn the vote back in their favour, but it was too little too late. Day by day, the gap just grew and grew until they knew there was no way they could win. So what did Kelloggs do? They cited voter fraud, restricted voting and announced Cheki as the winner to called it a day.

Of course, people were outraged, and a massive protest against Kellog's corporation ensued online. People called out Kellog's to release the actual voting results. Others called Cheki an illegitimate tyrant. This flame kept burning for 16 years, with #PrayForChex regularly appearing, and it seems to have worked.

In 2020, Kellogg's did something no one expected. They actually released the long-awaited green onion cereal as a limited edition cereal alongside an apology video on their youtube channel. This news became so big that on the day it was announced, it became the top trending topic on South Korean Social Media and sold out online within 2 days of it being released. People all over South Korea were overjoyed and cheered as Cheki was ousted, and the rightful ruler was put in his place.
