Topic “Cereal”
The Ghost of Breakfast Cereals Past
21 Nov, 2001
I haven't spent a lot of time there yet, but I was impressed to find a reference to General Mills' Buckwheats cereal, of which I have fond childhood memories. And I was happy to read that Booberry and Frankenberry are still in production, just harder to find than they used to be.
Damn, and a post on the message board just reminded me of "Ice Cream Cones" cereal, which came in two flavors: Vanilla and Chocolate. Damn! I guess they can't get away with making new cereals like that anymore. The old standbys like Cookie Crisp got grandfathered in, but gone are the days of innovative cereals like Ice Cream Cones and Dinky Donuts.
A Google search for Dinky Donuts just turned up this page, which may also be of nostalgic interest.
