My old faves from that list were the PacMan (aka Lucky Charms), Donkey Kong (aka Capn Crunch) and Bill & Ted's cereals (also aka Lucky Charms).

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

Quote: 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.
Quote: 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.
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...
