American delicacy, the Twinkie, is looking a little different these days. On Thursday, Hostess announced its latest flavor launch, a mysterious dark blue Moonberry, and it's out of this world.

...like literally. It's got a whole galactic thing going.

By the looks of that packaging, it's got the same shape as our OG Twinkie, but with a completely different taste and aesthetic otherwise. A rep for the brand told PEOPLE the dark sponge cake is meant to resemble the night sky. And that inside, an elusive Moonberry-flavored filling, is smooth, sweet, and fruity.

This limited-edition treat (ugh, yeah, it's not sticking around) will be sold exclusively at Walmart locations in $2.97 10-packs, and they're hitting shelves next week. Naturally, fans are freaking tf out over the launch. "I’ll certainly be at Walmart next week picking up a few boxes as I do my weekly routine pickup for HoneyBun Cereal 🤤" one commented. "Oh my GAWD!!! Gorgeous stuff!!!! 😍😍" another added. The whole Moonberry flavor is causing major intrigue, too. "What the heck I NEEED this, stop !!"

This all sounds great, wonderful, etc. etc., but in all honesty, I still haven't gotten over the Hostess cereal. Which, ICYMI, is a thing that exists. In November 2018, they started selling Honey Bun cereal and Powdered Mini Donettes cereal, and simultaneously making dessert for breakfast totally acceptable.

Oh, and Hostess execs, if you're reading, maybe consider a Twinkie cereal? K bye! Gotta go stake out my local Walmart! Ttyl!
