Why did they ever discontinue Oreo O's?!
Since the pandemic hit in 2020, US cereal sales jumped almost 9% as shoppers bought convenient foods and snacks they could eat during home office hours. Just as the Brits ate up an extra 53.5m packs of cereal in the UK alone. One thing is for sure: Both legacy and startup brands joined the growing cereal trend and put a modern spin on it. No matter if ancient grains, reduced sugar, high-protein counts or nutrients for digestion, energy, immunity and stress management – The new generation of cereals doesn’t only taste good, but comes with plenty of new features cereals from back in the day wish they had. WIN’s conceptual design for „Good Stuff“ embodies just that: Cereals that combine functional ingredients and elevated flavors – bringing adults back to the breakfast table enjoying a healthy, delicious version of their vintage childhood memories.
The return of Frute Brute and Yummy Mummy make 2013 the first year in history that all five General Mills monster breakfast cereals, including Count Chocula, Franken Berry and Boo Berry, will be available to monster fans at the same time!
When I was growing up, one of my favorite things to do was watch cartoons while eating a bowl of cereal. I used to sit right in front of the TV spilling milk on the carpet floor as I ate it. During the 80s and early 90s, the cereal we had to eat was incredible! I was out buying cereal for my kids th
In today’s video tutorial, I’m going to take you through the process of creating a mascot character to go within a retro cereal box design, using a mixture of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop. We will begin in Illustrator to draw the character, using simplified shapes based on the old mid-century style of cartoons and […]
From Ding Dongs to Hawaiian Punch, here are throwback snacks that'll remind you of your own childhood.
I love cereal. I think it is my favorite food. The best is Fruity Pebbles, by Post. I loved this box so much, I put it up in my room when I was a little kid. I know, I was mental. I remember when Purple Rain was out, there was a Fruity Pebbles commercial with Barney on a Purple Bike and outfit. pimping out the new grape flavor: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opU8MDNadiQ&feature=PlayList&p=3C6C097332A573FC&index=10 Today we are going to view some specifically 80's breakfast cereals and then we will take a look the way other popular cereal boxes used to look. Remember these little boxes, below? They look a lot cooler and more alive these days. 1980's Cereals Here is Pac-Man cereal. It was kind of a knock off of Lucky Charms, which I didn't like because I didn't like marshmallows. I did love Pac-Man though. Who didn't? I was even Ms. Pac-Man for Halloween in third grade. Here is the commercial for the cereal: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBUQX4G5oYQ I kinda sorta remember this Nerds cereal. Again, I really appreciate the packaging on these Willy Wonka products. They were pretty innovative. Dude...Dinky Donuts. I don't think I was ever lucky enough to eat these! But they were big in the 80s. They may or may not still be around. I seem to recall some sort of faux powdering on a powdered doughnut version of these, that was mildly disturbing. I couldn't find a close up of the box for Cabbage Patch Kids cereal. My mom broke down and bought these one time and that was it! I was a Cabbage Patch Kid freak, along with every other girl in the 80s. Here is the commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3am26nA6m8 Donkey Kong cereal! Nice! Cookie Crisp is still around, but this is what the box used to look like. These little guys really tore up the roof of your mouth! Commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd_6dmCsBM4 Smurfberry Crunch was actually really good! Other Vintage Cereal Boxes Remember when Apple Jacks looked like this? Commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vfNgtFL8VHw&feature=related I was a big Cap'n Crunch Fan, but these Peanut Butter puffs made me thirsty and were strangely greasy for a cereal. Here is the original Cap'n Crunch in all of it's 80's glory. These also left the roof of your mouth raw, but it was worth it. Man oh man. Crunch Berries! These are my runner up behind Fruity Pebbles. I developed a theory based on Crunch Berries: Crunch Berries were special because there was only one or maybe two berries in every bite, while there were tons of yellow squares. Then, Cap'n Crunch came out with an All Crunch Berries cereal (no yellow squares) and the berries weren't as...special. I apply that theory to anything of value that is suddenly mass produced or too readily available. I mean, what would happen if Christmas went on every day of the year? Keeping things very limited raises their value substantially! Okay, okay, so that is already a well known theory..I like the sound of the Crunch Berry Theory a lot better. Moving on. As I said, I hated Lucky Charms. I ate the oat pieces and left the marshmallows. But I wanted to show the box for those of you who remember it looking like this. Commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK2zcKqFLf0&feature=related We all liked these boxes, did we not? I never had a bite of Boo-Berry or the two others below, but I liked the cartoon-y boxes. Now pour yourself a bowl of cereal and watch This clip of Schoolhouse Rock! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkO87mkgcNo
Will today be the day your prize falls into your bowl? Who are you kidding? You totally dug through the box to find your toy.
Doh-licious Since the 1980s We're wrapping up National Cereal Lovers Week with a cereal so amazing it inspired a "Saturday Night Live" parody -- Chocolate Donutz cereal. Oh, how we miss that...
Kids today will never know the simple joy of finding a prize in a cereal box. It sounds a bit pathetic now, but in decades past, unearthing a crappy toy from within a box of sugary cereal was like finding buried treasure for a kid in the 1960s-1980s. Some parents let their children dump out … Continue reading "Cereal Box Prizes from the 1970s and 1980s"
