From: Kellogg's
Introduced in 1965



A... is for Apple
J... is for Jacks
Cinnamon, toasty Apple Jacks

This cereal has been described on the box as a "ready-sweetened apple & cinnamon flavored cereal" and an "apple-cinnamon coated cereal". More recent boxes have called Apple Jacks a "crunchy sweetened three-grain cereal with apple & cinnamon."

When this cereal first came out, TV commercials (and cereal boxes) featured a walking, talking apple in a bow tie named Apple Jack. In one ad, Apple Jack encounters a little boy with no energy who "can't keep up" with his friends. Apple Jack offered the following jingle to help the kid out:

(You need) New Kellogg's Apple Jacks
Apple good for breakfast or snacks
Cinnamon toasty... apple tasty (made with real apple bits!)
A bowl a day gives you energy to play.

Company Description: Kellogg's was originally founded as the Battle Creek Toasted Corn Flake Company in 1906. The company's founder Will Keith Kellogg is credited with inventing corn flakes along with his brother John Harvey Kellogg. The company was renamed the Kellogg Company in 1922...

Apple Jacks don't taste the same since they added the green color. Bring back just the plane old orange rings.

The new variety of Apple Jacks called Cinnamon Jacks are very good. They are shaped like jacks.

I am saddened that there are more orange jacks than green...

I think that Apple Jacks is a good kind of cereal to eat for breakfast. It tastes real good. My kids and I will always love Apple Jacks for breakfast.

Where did the flavor go? I used to eat these constantly in the 70's, and they had a sweet, fruity and spicy flavor. I just bought a box to relive old memories, and they were almost completely tasteless; like eating plain Cheerios without the oat flavor. No wonder Kellogg's is losing market share.

I really love this cereal & to be honest, I don't taste "apple" or "cinnamon" in this cereal. That's okay though - I'll still continue to buy them. (myemptycanvasreviews.blogspot.com)

Paul Frees was the voice of the original Apple Jacks mascot. He also did the Pillsbury Doughboy and Bozo cartoons.

About the 2 kids on the Apple Jacks box... this boy looked to me like he is DIVING into the cereal.
