Marketing execs were downright shameless in the 80s. and the lesson they learned from the failure of Breakfast Pepsi? It didn't have enough coffee in it.  quote:A very entertaining full-length TV commercial was aired, in which singer Tom Jones stood on a table in a crowded cafeteria and belted out “It’s Not Unusual” while sipping Pepsi Kona. Consumers kept their eyes peeled for the “Kona Hummer,” a large vehicle from which samples of Pepsi Kona were distributed. quote:The Philadelphia test market went poorly. quote:consumers stated that they just didn’t like the flavor combination of Pepsi-Cola and coffee

I break a highball glass into a rusted metal bowl followed by a cup of turpentine and a sprinkling of black powder. That’s my breakfast you loving pussies.

I don't remember ever trying Product 19. Mom and Dad usually got Raisin Bran until at some point Dad went "let's get knock off Raisin Bran and Pirate themed knock off Lucky charms". And I usually get knock off Raisin Bran and Frosted Flakes now.

Of course I go for Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The cereal that ran ads back in the day made for children literally bragging about how much sugar is in it.

And jesus, Grape Nuts Flakes. They're really not all that bad but way to backpedal from the extremely bold Fruit Nuts concept like total cowards Post!

Also Hostess brand corn flakes, hands down the best corn flakes I ever had and could only find at the local Hostess Store, which had been there for 45 god damned years until Hostess went bankrupt. And then when they got bought up and reorganized or whatever, none of the Hostess Stores reopened and I never saw their corn flakes again. For that matter, none of their other products were quite the same either. I will mourn the loss of pre-closure Suzy-Qs for the rest of my days.

Do they still make Flutie Flakes because that guy's son got caught in a wheat thresher or something?

Oh, this seems to be the thread for it. For almost a month I couldn't find Raisin Nut Bran on the shelves at the three different stores I shop at. But today, I saw it back on the shelves. I think the box is different, but different like they regressed to an older style. If this is a consequence of slipping out of my original dimension where Product 19 didn't exist, to this one where it used to exist, and I managed to get back Raisin Nut Bran as a trade-off, I'll take it. Trump seems inescapable though.
