70s Commercials & History of Discontinued Cereals -1 

~ That's more than I remembered! SMH / LOL

~ I know I had Ka-boom on my list. Can't remember why I didn't use it... I'm not familiar with the Cinnamon Crunch. I'll have to do some research. I believe I read somewhere that you can still buy Quisp online. Well, it said "mostly" online, so that kinda infers that it's out there on some stores shelf! Thanks for the info! I hope you enjoyed the video.

~ Healthy cereals! Impressive! My parents didn't buy us much cereal. I mostly had toast for breakfast...

I also loved the Buc Wheats and Teem Flakes.

@@yeehaw23smitty OMG, I Totally forgot Team Flakes! Yes, those were delicious.

~ I think that Pink Panther spy kit is pretty rare!

~ Thanks for the info! I couldn't find much on G&S&G&L so I almost didn't include it, but the concept was so strange that I just HAD to mention it! I was surprised at how many cereals were repackaged & renamed discontinued cereals... among other things! LOL

@@60s70s80sNostalgia The name of the "computer" that produced the cereal in the cartoon ad was Cecil. I definitely remember eating them and Freakies.

Yes, being a cereal eater from mid 60s to late 70s I recognized the taste & texture of many similar cereals. Some were Ralston Purina & other similar ones were manufactured by Quaker Oats.

~ Thanks for the info! I don't know if you've had the chance to watch the cereal video I posted last week... One of the narrator's sounds like the magician that was trying to steal Frosty's hat. I'm probably wrong, but it''s definitely someone from a classic Christmas Special

I still have a Freakies magnet that was in one of the boxes we had. It was the orange Freakie with the bent long frog-like legs.

~ I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that, that change was the beginning of the end, so to speak.

~ Whoever it is, she made a basic little jingle really "pop" (if that makes sense).

@@60s70s80sNostalgia Yes, she did a great job giving the jingle personality.

@@60s70s80sNostalgia I thought it was Blossom Drearie at first, (sings figure 8 song on Schoolhouse Rock) but I don't believe it is her.

@@yeehaw23smitty If anyone out there remembers the singer and composer of the songs for the Hal Linden hosted: "Animals, Animals, Animals." the singer of the Raisin Bran jingle, reminds me of her. But I am not 100% sure it is her.

~ I thought he sounded familiar!

~ I hear ya! I was shocked at how many discontinued cereals there are! I've done 6 videos already & there's still a lot more!

~ You are a cereal connoisseur! Love it!! We very rarely got any sugary cereal. If we did, it was Honey Snaps or Froot Loops. Normally, it was Life & cornflakes.

@@60s70s80sNostalgia You have no idea! I really specialize in 80's cereals though. But some 70's too... Did you do Kellogg's Graham Crackos in another video yet? Loved those as a kid! One of my earliest cereal memories: My dad worked late and there was an A&P grocery store next to where he worked. Sometimes I'd wake up in the middle of the night when he came home and he'd have a brown grocery bag in his arms, inside was a gallon of milk and a box of "Sugar" Pops, his favorite cereal. My dad always had fruit, bread, and espresso for breakfast (Italian style) but he loved cereal as a dessert snack and he hated to eat alone. So I'd join him in eating Sugar Pops before be went to bed. Good times. ☺ Love how the word "sugar" which was proudly in the titles of many cereals in the 50's - 70's got quietly swept away by the 80's... Sugar Pops became Corn Pops. Sugar Smacks became Honey Smacks and then just Smacks. Super Sugar Crisp became Super Golden Crisp then just Golden Crisp I think Kellogg's Frosted Flakes survived with their name intact because it was Frosted Flakes and not Sugar Flakes, though it used to be advertised as Sugar Frosted Flakes at times. There was also Kellogs Frosted Rice cereal and Tony the Tiger's son Jr. was the mascot for that. That cereal disappeared but in that case I think Snap, Crackle, and Pop ordered a hit on him for encroaching too close to their territory. Frosted Rice Krispies came out right after Frosted Rice and Jr. disappeared... 😉 Best Regards!

~ I'll have to look Moonstones up! Though, I think I've heard of Body Buddies. It may be the last cereal in one of the cereal videos, but I'm not 100% sure...

Yeah I remember Body Buddies I think the cereal was little circles 🤔

~ Now, THAT'S a memory! I only remember Boo-berry & Count Chocula!

@@60s70s80sNostalgia I know my cereals.
