Oatmeal Raisin Crisp
From: General Mills
The slogan for this cereal was "Look Ma! I'm eating my oatmeal." A memorable TV commercial from 1991 for Oatmeal Raisin Crisp featured actors Jerry Mathers and Barbara Billingsley revisiting their roles as Beaver Cleaver and June Cleaver from the 50's & 60's TV series Leave It To Beaver. In the commercial, Jerry Mathers asks, "Gee Mom, what's this," when Barbara Billingsley sets a box of the cereal in front of him. "Oatmeal Raisin Crisp," replies Billingsley. "Awww... neat," Mathers fires back. "It's Oatmeal made just your way... crispy flakes with oatmeal and a touch of brown sugar." Mathers stirs a bowl of the cereal with a spoon, "Gobs of raisins and almonds... I love Oatmeal Raisin Crisp... Look Ma! I'm eating my oatmeal. Wait until I tell the guys." Billingsley looks at the middle aged Mathers and responds, "Maybe now, we should talk about finding you your own place." Company Description: Officially created in 1928, General Mills traces it's history back to the 1860's and the ownership of two flour mills. Since then, the company has become the world's 6th largest food company - marketing to over 100 countries... Read on and see all cereals from General Mills Oatmeal Raisin Crisp Cereal Theater

Oatmeal Raisin Crisp was my favorite cereal before we moved west and I could not find it anymore. I am bummed to hear it has been discontinued. Please bring it back! Comment submitted: 1/28/2013 (#10564) By Larry4
Love it, but I cannot find it anymore in local stores in Northern Virginia! Please bring it back. Comment submitted: 1/7/2013 (#10319) By jillana Really enjoyed the original cereal... now I find they introduced a similar cereal called "Oatmeal Crisp with Raisins"... tastes horrible! Has an overpowering taste of cinnamon... a horrible amount of oatmeal clusters?!? And NO almonds!?! What the heck is wrong with General Mills? Comment submitted: 1/2/2013 (#10273) By M.C.
I'm so disappointed the Oatmeal Raisin Crisp was discontinued. I have eaten this cereal for years and was introduced to it by my grandmother and have passed my love of the cereal onto my kids. Comment submitted: 12/30/2012 (#10253) By Devil-Dog (Team Breakfast Member)
After Crispy Wheats & Raisins disappeared, I started eating these because of similar tastes. Then poof it disappeared. I guess I need to start eating nasty cereal so they disappear also. Comment submitted: 11/23/2012 (#9997) By Suzanne
For more years than I remember, I have only eaten Oatmeal Raisin Crisp - I love the taste of Oat-based cereal, and it never gets soggy. It's the only cereal I will eat. Don't like bran cereals, corn flakes, Ccheerios or wheat or rice Chex - Bring back the ORC! Comment submitted: 11/20/2012 (#9984) View all 37 comments for this cereal. |
