Poll: breakfast cereal characters
Re: Poll: breakfast cereal characters
Here's a few cereal box characters (incidentally, Tony the Tiger & the Trix Rabbit probably were the most influential to me and who I voted for.)
If Rocky & Bullwinkle had a cereal, they would've gotten a vote from me:

Re: Poll: breakfast cereal characters
.....and what if these characters branched out and endorsed other products?

How could you forget this cereal and spokescharacter, Yogi Bear?
I remember eating these!
This is my #2 vote, after Tony the Tiger.

Well, the name recognition of Yogi Bear would have skewed the poll results which is why i didn't include Fred Flinstone and Barney Rubble from Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles. They're yabba dabba delicious!

How about in Ireland? I'd surmise that Lucky Charms might've done well there.mostonmike wrote: ↑Sun Jan 19, 2025 9:38 pmI can’t really play as Tony the Tiger is the only one we would have seen, oh maybe Snap, Crackle, Pop as well. So how about this, a slightly creepy yet incredibly well known UK ad featuring the Honey Monster. Traumatised many kids over here.

And I don’t know a single person who ever liked Sugar Puffs. Vile stuff.

Re: Poll: breakfast cereal characters
How did Cheerios ever become so popular? Just like Corn Flakes, Rice Krispies and Honeycomb they have literally ZERO flavor. Isn't that why Apple Jacks and Fruit Loops came about?rockycola wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2025 7:26 amHere's a few cereal box characters (incidentally, Tony the Tiger & the Trix Rabbit probably were the most influential to me and who I voted for.)

Re: Poll: breakfast cereal characters
They never made it over here, or Ireland. If I remember rightly, the Food Standards Agency didn’t approve the food colouring dyes in them. Similairly, Fruit Loops have only just staring appearing over here in the last decade or so having been blocked for decades.Sibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2025 8:26 pmHow about in Ireland?

So we only really got stuff from the Kelloggs stable plus a couple of British brands. Porridge was quite popular in Scotland - is that oatmeal?
A world with marshmallows in your breakfast cereal must’ve been better than a bowl of bloody cornflakes. We were robbed.

Wheaties tastes like cardboard! Clemente is tempting, though! We used to play Home Run Derby in my neighbor's back yard with a plastic bat and a whiffle ball. He was my choice to emulate.

I despised Cheerios. Just gross. How about Shredded wheat. The tag line should have been, when you are in the mood to eat like a farm animal try this dry disgusting mini hay bale.Sibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2025 8:30 pmHow did Cheerios ever become so popular?

You mean they were able to break away from three squares of Haggis a day to enjoy a fine bowl of Porridge?? lol Porridge is like Cream of wheat I believe.mostonmike wrote: ↑Mon Jan 20, 2025 11:15 pmThey never made it over here, or Ireland.
