Yep. Later on when I got older it changed to Capn Crunch sometimes sugar corn pops, sugar crisp and the old honeycomb.

For me it was Super Sugar Crisp.

I was not even born then. I was born in 1996. Looks nice, why did they stop? Did have too many artificial flavors?

As a kid, I liked the Scooby-Doo cereals, that had marshmallows in them. I also liked, the Flintstones flakes, or whatever they used to call those miniature multi-colored flakes that almost looked like corn flakes.

I was always a huge cereal fan, but if I had to narrow it down to one, it would be Cocoa Pebbles. It literally tasted better when I was a kid. They reformulated it numerous times, and reformulated what made it special right out. I still like it ok, but it isn't what it was. My honorable mention list is too long to write, so I'll add some that were awful...

Kix
Rice Krispies
Cocoa Krispies

I think that's it. Even the blandest "adult" cereals had something to offer.

I loved kix and coca pebbles as well.

Sugar Crisp is still sold in stores. I just don't eat it due to having diabetes. Way too much sugar for me.

I just realized the bear in those commercials was a bad impression of Dean Martin.

I believe its referred to as "Golden-Crisp" now that sugar is a dirty word.

in the States, yes. Here in Canada it is still called Sugar Crisp.

I bought that once for our kids when they were younger, and neither of them liked it.

Being a person who doesn't like to waste, I finished the rest of the box for them.

It's still very sugary and delicious.

The plan-b version used to be called Sugar-Smacks but pretty sure its Honey-Smacks nowadays despite containing zero actual honey.

You'd think those cheap Canadian bastards would just use Maple Syrup to sweeten everything, but with all the price fixing, it's worth more as an export to monarchs overseas.

LOL

There are a fair number of maple flavoured products here. I miss maple sugar candy. It's just straight up maple sugar shaped into a maple leaf.

I loved pretty much all of the cereals, but Kix was my favorite. These days, I only eat Frosted Mini-Wheats, Raisin Bran, and Special K (though Special K is more of something to munch on late at night).

Golden Grahams and Lucky Charms deserve a mention. Corn Pops were great too.

Speaking of Maple & cereal ... anyone remember Buc Wheats?

I remember them but never tried them.

Dang ... I'd think it would have been your national cereal!

Was actually pretty good like Wheaties + maple-syrup

My parents fixed a hot breakfast every morning for me and my siblings. You guys who had to eat cold cereal must have had parents who didn't love you.

 

[BudAshes]

Anyone remember Big Mixx Cereal and Just Right?
