You’ve probably seen the phrase, “We’re losing our recipes,” floating around on social media lately, and if you don’t happen to be fluent in zillennial, please allow me to translate. What started as a colloquial phrase—as it so often does—to verbalize the phenomenon of what appears to be a concerted shift away from the home-cooked meals and ancestral knowledge passed down through generations, has since morphed in definition to describe the feelings of nostalgia associated with things that have either changed or no longer exist.

Think Food Network in the early aughts, for instance. These days, the foremost voice in culinary entertainment is less comforting cooking shows and more quirky, melodramatic competitions with rules that feel like they were dreamed up by some evil genius who thinks pickled duck eggs and cotton candy could ever work together as a cohesive dish. Losing our recipes is the acknowledgement that things are changing, sometimes right before our very eyes.

Of course, just like fashion, everything inevitably comes back in style. Even the products we forgot about can make a dazzling reappearance, and the latest item to make a return to our collective consciousness has us brushing up on our ABCs. Without dating myself too much, thanks to @cereallife, we can confirm that Alpha-Bits Cereal is finally making a comeback. The cereal equivalent of alphabet soup first hit breakfast tables in 1957 and, after a lengthy 64-year run, was discontinued in 2021.

Thankfully, according to their parent company, Post, the iconic cereal will return for a limited time this fall after overwhelming requests from fans prompted the brand to reach back into the archives and re-release the nostalgic breakfast staple. Naturally, fans of a certain age were losing it in the comments. “I have been waiting years for an Alpha Bits comeback ?,” said one excited shopper. “NO WAYYY,” exclaimed another person. A few fans even begged for a very specific version of the iconic cereal to make a return, saying, “If it's not the one with marshmallows, we don't want it.”
So far, the launch is a limited release, and it appears that it'll only be the original Alpha-Bits Cereal for now—but with everyone reheating their nachos, who knows what else might make a comeback?
