Another ancient cereal revisit
#247976 - 03/05/11 01:37 AM


I've eaten 98% of these...

Most certainly avoided the NKOTB, even though it was probably re-packaged TMNT...


//again, it's a wonder as to why I have blood sugar issues....

I remember most of them, from the TV commercials mostly, and I definitely tried all of the video game themed ones at least once.

Pop Tarts cereal? I missed that one...

I never had 'em (among many others from that list) but I always liked this jingle.

Do you remember the BA Barocus Ice lolly? It was green for some reason! (well it was lime flavour I think, but odd all the same - he wasn't the hulk!)

Heh, that was mildly entertaining. I had that blue plastic "cassette case" too; it became my very first stash box as a teenager

So I guess you would snap off(?) that plastic thingy off the end and just use it as a pocket sized carrying case?

Holy fuck, this cereal tasted as terrible as it smelled. Furthermore, the milk was a bad choice. Despite how empty that bowl looks, I really didn't eat that much. Truth be told, I only ate about four spoonfuls of this awful stuff. I attempted to eat another three, but ended up spitting them out in the sink. About fifteen minutes later, my left arm started tingling. I know people say that all the time as a joke, but I swear it happened. I probably should have gone to the hospital, but I really didn't want to explain that I had been eating cereal from 1985.

I had always been a little creeped out that the cereal was still in the box since 1991. But the Urkel-Os are now 14 years old, and I am no longer creeped out. I'm psyched, because I realized what I have in my possession is not just a box of old cereal (and possibly some larvae), but a chance to taste history.

It's funny as hell, but you have to wonder if he's doing any kind of long-term damage. The cereal is probably harmless enough, but I don't know about ancient diet soda. Who knows what the aspartame and the other crap in there has broken down into after 23 years.

The ants were probably driven away by the cinnamon.

I maybe had 10% of those... I was a poor kid.

Super Golden Crisp? Sure... you can have these Sugar Puffs. They're the same thing!

Gremlins? WWF Superstars? Mr. T? coming right up-> King vitamin for you



Just broke my personal record for number of consecutive days without dying!

There are so many old cereals that I miss... Halfsies, Strawberry Shortcake, Donkey Kong, plus all the cereals currently available that are mere shells of their former selves...
