When I was a kid, I thought the Pac-Man cereal was great. Years later, I realized it was just a repackaged version of Lucky Charms. I also tried the Donkey Kong cereal (Captain Crunch with barrel-shaped nuggets) and Donkey Kong Jr. cereal (Trix with fruit-shaped nuggets). Proof that the cereal companies don't need to invent new cereals. All they have to do is change the shapes of the cereal nuggets to fit the latest fad.)
MatPat from Food Theory did a video showing how Apple Jacks taste more like Froot Loops than apples: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LZ8lkhgnCzw.html
Sonic cereal commercials: I am too cool Mario cereal commercials: ahh yes let’s have some music inside your head Pac man cereal commercials: *UmM DeClIous FoR tHe WhOlE fAmIlY* *DANCES I AM HIGH*
It's 2022 ... I needed some retro goodness in my life today - which brought me here! My memory is now refreshed with one of the great greatest lines in history!! "It's Pac-Man - chomp, chomp delicious!" I'll be reciting this at work for at least the next couple of days - probably longer! No un-remembering now. Childhood memory launch sequence initiated!!
This was actually one of the early american pac man merchandising that shows that pinky is a female ghost, good thing the makers of this cereal knew that.
When the Pac-Man craze ended in 1985 or '86,this cereal disappeared. Many video game enthusiasts in the 1980's loved this breakfast(or anytime snack) food. Fun fact:One scene in the 1985 Warner Bros. film POLICE ACADEMY 2 features Bobcat Goldthwait's character wreaking havoc with several cohorts in a supermarket and this product in its home location happened to be captured in the shooting.
I remember the first time I tried this cereal I didn't like the taste of the pacman marshmallows but the ghost ones and i would single out and remove all the pacman marshmallows from my cereal before I ate it lol!!!
I remember another variation on that next to last commercial, with all the dancing, with a different singer, who seemed a little more subdued. Does anyone else remember this?
pacman design is based off the (us) midway design super pacman and pacman are the same person in the games and namco media but in the hanna barbera cartoon and the cereal theyre seperate the pink pac man ad features ms pacman i presume
I bet thousands of kids ate this cereal while listening to the Jerry Buckner & Gary Garcia recording PAC-MAN FEVER. I might have myself,I just don't remember.
Arthur’s Almost Live Not Real Music Festival aired on February 8, 1999. Play It Again DW aired on October 27, 1997. The Ballad Of Buster Baxter aired on September 21, 1998.
No way!! If I recall correctly, Pac-Man cereal didn't make it to the 90's, here, in the U.S. I could definitely be mistaken. Anyone recall the last year you saw it on shelves?
