Kellogg’s mascot “Tony the Tiger” appeared on the red carpet with trans-identifying male activist Dylan Mulvaney at the 76th Tony Awards and social media blew up, with many suggesting the cereal company was the next one to go woke, go broke.
The famed icon of the Frosted Flakes cereal ditched his red bandana for a bow tie on Sunday as he posed for pictures at the New York event with Mulvaney on his arm. Numerous images later surfaced on Twitter with a mix of comments about the cereal brand being the next one to possibly face a boycott. It comes after Mulvaney’s partnership with Bud Light led to the company’s loss in market value of some $27 billion by the end of May.

One person said simply that their “childhood” was ruined” after seeing the images of the tiger posing with “female impersonator Dylan Mulvaney.”
Another added, “It’s a sad day. KelloggsUS KelloggCompany goes woke. Even having Tony the Tiger bow to the Trans Mulvaney & holding his dress train. A month long celebration of perversion. When our veterans get 1 day. Truly sick.”
