Do you remember a favorite cereal that they no longer produce?

[Mr. Ected]

Do you think they would taste the same to you now as they did then?

I miss Puffa Puffa Rice something fierce. It's been over 45 years, but I still think I remember the flavor and crackle like it was yesterday.

?zz=1

Then there's Buc Wheats. This was my father's favorite cereal at the time. Why this is no longer a thing is a mystery to me.




And this one was absolutely craven. I'd pay good money to bring this cereal back for one month.




If you could resurrect one favorite cereal from your past, which would it be?

[Ohiogal]

1. Wow, a 7 cent coupon inside the Buc Wheats box!

I haven't thought of those in years. I remember I liked them, though.

2. Crispy Critters

[consider_this]

5. OMG yes!

I totally forgot about it, but as soon as you mentioned it i know the exact taste and nice firm texture ANIMALS!!!

[Ohiogal]

10. That ad is forever burned into my brain...

Theoneandonlycerealthatcomesintheshapeofanimals!

[consider_this]

11. Yes...

Tschaikovski, I believe?
Russian dance from the Nutcracker - right?

[consider_this]

13. oH - you posted a video, i didn't even notice - LOL

[sinkingfeeling]

3. Rice Krinkles.

[Mr. Ected]

14. Also a favorite!

Just the right amount of sweetening. Or maybe way too much. I have no way of ever knowing which one.

[Sneederbunk]

4. Krumbles.

[NRaleighLiberal]

6. Quisp. They reintroduced it a few years ago

But wasn't the same.

[FoxNewsSucks]

28. That's the first one I thought of also

I was really pissed off when they dumped Quisp and kept Quake. Quisp was clearly the better cereal.

[RainCaster]

7. Roman Meal

[Ohiogal]

8. Stax cereal

So you could play with your food as well as eat it

[consider_this]

9. QUISP!

Well I loved it as a kid. would prob overload on the sugar nowadays.

Wait - looks like you can still get it some places???

[Generic Brad]

15. I loved that cereal

It was even good without milk.

[AJT]

27. And Quake!

[50 Shades Of Blue]

12. Team Flakes!

No way would they taste the same now - NONE of the cereals I eat now are the same as they used to be. Some are completely different, like Special K.

[FSogol]

21. You beat me to it. The best flake cereal since all the others instantly turn soggy

in milk. Team Flakes were thicker and didn't absorb milk like the other tissue paper-type flakes.

[SWBTATTReg]

25. I remember these! It was one of the first so called 'healthy' flake type of cereals I liked...nt

[Va Lefty]

16. Used to love Sugar Pops now known as Corn Pops

[Adsos Letter]

17. Do they still make Alpha-bits?

I loved that stuff when I was a kid.

EDIT: never mind, looks like they still make it.

18. I Remember Count Chocula and Franken Berry

Going off on a tangent, there's a webcomic called Breakfast of the Gods that is essentially a Watchmen-like story played out by classic cereal mascots.

[FSogol]

22. Count Chocula and Franken Berry both come back every Halloween.

PS. Did you forget Boo Berry?

[onecaliberal]

33. I used to miss count chocula.

19. Post Fortified Oat Flakes

Soooo good and healthy too. Had a unique malt-y taste. My mom liked it too so we never had to beg for it. Was hoping they’d bring it back during the oat bran fad but no. People have written and begged Post to bring it back.

[RobinA]

29. YES!!! THIS!!

Oat Flakes, my favorite of all time. Nothing like them.

[House of Roberts]

20. BucWheats were my favorite after school snack for years.

[Atticus]

23. Sugar Corn Pops---"Shot with sugar, through and through!" nt

[Demovictory9]

32. Loved sugar pops. Dessert for breakfast

[Rhiannon12866]

42. "Sugar Pops are tops!"

My brother liked Sugar Pops and I liked Sugar Smacks...

26. Bigg Mixx

[pangaia]

30. Actually, RICE CRISPIES.

It is the same name on the box but it sure as hell ain't the same stuff inside the box.

[Demovictory9]

31. Captain crunch still in production but tastes diff than I remember

Was my favorite cereal as a kid (1970s). Tried it 40 years later. It was different

[Chipper Chat]

34. Post Sugar Crisp.

I used to eat it for breakfast back in the 50s.
Golden Crisp just doesnt cut it.

[KT2000]

35. Wheateena and

Shredded Wheat - do they make that anymore? I toasted it in the oven.

[Xolodno]

36. I always fell for the gimmicks...

C-3POs, Smurfberry Crunch, etc. But the two I always liked...and are still around Honeycomb, Corn Pops and of course...anything granola.

[jpak]

37. ...

[Aristus]

38. I LOVED Buc Wheats!

[TlalocW]

39. Moonstones Cereal - I remember being fascinated by it when I was a kid

Only on shelves from 1976-1977



Also I regret never having these from the late 80s considering how big a Muppet fan I am. Cröonchy Stars.

40. King Vitamin!

[Rhiannon12866]

41. Do they still make Maypo? I had that every morning before school in the early grades

And I also remember this commercial!

[blue neen]

43. Post Toasties

Corn Flakes.

[Laffy Kat]

44. Rice Krinkles. It had a very racist box, though.

The cereal was good, basically frosted Rice Krispies, but better tasting. I won't show the box because it's offensive.
