Cereal Life

Take me back to the golden age of cereal prizes 👉🏼



In 1984, Kellogg’s dropped Starbots into Froot Loops, Apple Jacks, OJ’s and more. They were ‘Transformers’ style robots that you could build from rockets, jets, and spaceships.

In 1989, Apple Jacks gave kids a Ghost Detector. It was a little heat-sensitive paper ghost you placed in your palm, kind of like those old fortune-teller fish. If it curled up, congratulations: you had ghosts.

In 1989, Honey-Comb put digital watches inside cereal boxes. It told the time and showed the date.

The mother of all prizes! In 1986, Ralston’s Almond Delight put cash in every box, ft. money from around the world, with some boxes having real U.S. cash prizes up to $500.

헐!!! NEW Lucky Charms x KPop Demon Hunters is happening + nationwide release of the ‘Secret Saja Boys Flavor’ (spoiler below) 🤫

✨ NEW HUNTR/X Peach Mango Lucky Charms
🔥 Saja Boys Secret Flavor Cinnamon Toast Crunch (beyond the limited release)

The CTC drop sold out before it released the first time, and now Lucky Charms is joining the collab with an all-new peach mango flavor.

🛒 Walmart: June 29
🌎 Nationwide: July 20

Sadly, it doesn’t look like HUNTR/X Cinnamon Toast Crunch is getting a full drop, which hurts because that was one of my favorite flavors. That one was actually Peach Mango, so it looks like they moved that flavor over to Lucky Charms.

And spoiler alert: the Saja Boys Secret Flavor is COLA. 🥤

Good luck finding these. Stay tuned, because I’ll be sharing more as it drops!!

Remember these ‘Dot Cake’ snacks? The cake stood on the shoulders of giants like 👉🏼 Sprinkle Spangles sprinke-covered cereal stars in 1993.

Popsicle Sprinklers Ice Cream Bars on a stick in the ’90s and early 2000s.

Sno-Caps have been doing chocolate-covered-in-dots since 1927. Could be the 🐐 movie snacks.
